You’ll touch down at Split airport, Croatia’s second-largest city and be transferred to Trogir port. From here, you’ll board your home on the water for the next few nights, the MS Equator (2025 departures) or the MS Adriatica (2026). Compact and ideal for traversing the country’s idyllic coastline, these vessels of 18 well-equipped and comfortable cabins encompasses a modern and elegant design with three decks, a restaurant, and a bar.  

Settle into your cabin and join the other travellers for a welcome reception in the evening, followed by dinner. 

Once you’ve had breakfast, you’ll head to Dubrovnik, the ‘Pearl of the Adriatic’, a famous UNESCO World Heritage Site and ancient city.  

On the guided tour, you’ll get to see the pedestrianised central street Stradun, running from the Pile Gate to busy Luza Square and overlooked by the carved stone façade of the impressive Sponza Palace, as well as the baroque St Blaise’s Church. 

You’ll then have the opportunity to discover more highlights, like the Franciscan Monastery with Europe’s second oldest pharmacy, and the Rector’s Palace, the seat of the government in the former Dubrovnik Republic. The energetic can walk the entirety of the city walls, while others can take a seat in one of the city's many pavement cafés.  

You can also take a boat ride to the nearby Lokrum Island, home to a botanical garden, a salt lake, and a historic Benedictine monastery. Alternatively, choose to travel by cable car to the summit of Mount Srđ, which overlooks the city’s red-roofed buildings and the shimmering waters below.  

Choose from one of the city’s restaurants for dinner this evening as the vessel will dock here for the night. 

Early this morning, you’ll journey to the island of Korčula, have breakfast and depending on the weather, a swim in one of the nearby bays. You can then lounge on the sun deck and eat lunch before docking at the harbour and visiting the walled medieval town.  

Famed as the birthplace of the famous explorer, Marco Polo, Korčula will be explored on a guided walking tour, which will take you around its labyrinth of streets. Points of interest include the striking St. Mark's Cathedral, a prominent landmark with a bell tower, the Marco Polo House, a museum dedicated to the pioneer, and the 16th-century Renaissance-style Gabrielis Palace. This island is also known for its wine production, especially the white wine variety Pošip, and you’ll get to sample some of the local labels and learn about the winemaking process at a popular bar.  

Another free evening allows you to survey the town at your leisure, perhaps taking a stroll along the city walls as the sun sets over the Adriatic and tasting the seafood at an open-air restaurant. 

Start the day with breakfast and a morning swim in one of Brač’s coves and bays (weather permitting) followed by lunch onboard later. In the afternoon, you’ll arrive at the port town of Pučišća, on the island of Brač.  

Celebrated for its white limestone architecture, Pučišća village on the island of Brač, is one of the most well-preserved coastal settlements in the Dalmatian region. Particularly famous for its centuries-old stonemasonry heritage, Brač’s local limestone is referred to as ‘Brač stone’ and has been used to build famous structures, including the White House in Washington D.C. 

Choose to join an optional visit to the Stonemasonry School, one of the few stonemasonry schools in Europe. During this excursion, you can learn about how the school trains students in traditional stone-cutting techniques and watch them at work.  

Perhaps have a drink at the vessel’s bar this evening and then enjoy a special Captain’s dinner with the other travellers.  

Following breakfast, the vessel will make its way to the final port, Spilt, with a swim stop to cool off and lunch on board. Upon arriving at the island, you’ll go on a walking tour of the inner city, visiting Diocletian's Palace, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the best-preserved Roman monuments in the world.  

You’ll also get to view the central Peristyle Square with its marble colonnaded design and the Cathedral of Saint Domnius, built as the mausoleum of Emperor Diocletian and reflecting an elaborate Romanesque design. You can climb the bell tower for panoramic views over the city, too.  

Lastly, set sail to the UNESCO-listed city of Trogir, often referred to as a ‘museum city’ due to its well-preserved medieval architecture. You can wander around its old town, taking in the Cathedral of St. Lawrence, Kamerlengo Fortress, and Cipiko Palace.  

It’s your last evening and you can spend it on Trogir’s Riva waterfront promenade, bustling with restaurants and bars, and looking out over the Adriatic Sea. Enjoy a chilled beverage as the sun goes down followed by a dinner of local delicacies.  

You’ll depart the vessel after a final breakfast this morning and be transferred to Split airport for your flight home.
