Cultural journeys and expeditions

Beautiful, historic and richly resilient, Croatia's Dalmatian Coast has reemerged among Europe's hottest holiday destinations.... offering golden sand beaches, vineyards bucolic with lemon trees, olives and vines, lavender fields fragrant from afar, limestone caves sculpted in time... the architectural artistry of the Venetian Republic... fortified towns and terra cotta tableaus that play out in palaces and promenades...

Walk with us to places immortalized with local color, sip and savor wines masterfully crafted, toast traditions and tales fondly shared, and become part of the stories, past and present, that make your vacation memories last lifetimes. Guided visits and shore excursions choices include revered UNESCO World Heritage sites as you cruise between Venice, the Dalmatian Coast and Montenegro. Discover the architectural masterpiece that is Venice... the Gothic Cathedral of St. Lawrence in Sibenik... the ancient Roman Palace of Diocletian in Split... the walled city of Dubrovnik, renowned for its Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque monasteries, palaces, fountains, and churches... the stunning harbor town of Kotor... and the lavender-scented island of Hvar, where Stari Grad Plain astounds with its intact ancient Greek land system. Your elegant ship is perfectly sized and ideally suited for island exploration where the bigger ships can't go, charts a course for destinations of scenic serenity like the Bay of Kotor in Montenegro, where private shore excursions reveal maritime treasures and seaside settlements worthy of leisurely discovery. Two nights at a premier hotel in Venice bring the aura of daily life amidst architectural masterpieces, ancient squares and the ever-present lacework of canals.

Krka National Park, Croatia

Enjoying Croatia's natural treasures at Krka National Park

Croatia's Krka National Park is a vast and primarily unaltered area of exceptional natural value, comprising some of the loveliest sections of the Krka River, as well as the lower course of the Čikola River. The park, home to a rich variety of flora and fauna, encompasses seven significant waterfalls; two of its most popular attractions are Skradinski Buk, a clear, natural pool with high waterfalls at one end and cascades at the other; and Roški Slap, the sixth waterfall of the Krka River. The national park also features hiking trails, boat trips, gift shops, a museum and restaurants, and the unpreserved ruins of several fortresses dating back to Roman times.

Discovering Dubrovnik

The treasures of Dubrovnik, Croatia's "Pearl of the Adriatic"

Preserved as the world's largest restored UNESCO World Heritage Site, the medieval Old City of Dubrovnik on Croatia's Dalmatian Coast – nicknamed "the Pearl of the Adriatic" – has been blessed with a wealth of magnificent Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque churches, monasteries, palaces, squares, cobbled streets, fountains, and medieval ramparts, all cut from the same beautiful stone. Its treasures include the Dominican Monastery, the Rector's Palace, Dubrovnik Synagogue and much more. You can explore this remarkably well-preserved city from above by cable car, or on guided walking tours of Old Town or along the ancient city walls.

Beautiful scenery! The ship was fabulous. Tour leaders fun, well informed, and very helpful. Food was great!
