    1
    Venice, Italy
    • Venice, Italy
    • Depart: 6:00 pm
    Proud and eternal, Venice has reigned on its lagoon ever since the 6th century. You may think you know this city before even setting foot here. You will inevitably fall in love with the charm of the innumerable treasures of La Serenissima: Saint Mark's Square, the Basilica, Doge's Palace, the Grand Canal, and the gondolas. Yet, secret Venice is also waiting for you to explore its little interlacing streets and canals, to ramble through its squares, and to push open the doors of its churches. The city's extraordinary heritage shouldn't stop you from enjoying a glass of Spritz and a few tramezzini. ...

    Rovinj, Croatia
    • Rovinj, Croatia
    Rovinj is located in Istria, a region bordering Slovenia. This becomes apparent as you walk through its old cobblestoned town. There are many monuments of Venetian influence here. If you study Balbi's Arch, you will see the winged lion, symbol of Venice. The bell tower erected beside Saint Euphemia's Basilica is similar to the bell tower in St. Mark's Square in Venice. From the top of the tower, you can scan the entire historical district. To absorb its quaint atmosphere, take a walk in the ochre and sepia-colored streets leading to bustling squares and terraces shaded by canvas awnings. ...

    Zadar, Croatia
    • Zadar, Croatia
    The old fortified city of Zadar stands on peninsula in Northern Dalmatia. It has survived since Antiquity, as the ruins of a Roman forum illustrate. Beside these ruins, the architecture of the Church of Saint Donatus is Byzantine while the bell-tower of the Cathedral of Saint Anastasia is of Italian design. Your walks in the old town will be punctuated by diverse encounters with history. As you reach the shoreline, you'll be brought back to modern day because this front is animated by two contemporary architectural creations. Maybe you will hear the sound of the "Sea Organ" music played by the surf and the "Sun Salutations" solar light installation reflecting its luminous rays. ...

    • Primosten, Croatia
    Located south of Sibenik, Primosten is a picturesque village on the Dalmatian Coast, whose charm is distilled via its narrow streets, through pretty stone houses, and an architectural heritage influenced by the Venetian Republic. Built on a rocky peninsula, the historic city was connected to land by a mobile bridge from which it earned its name in the 16th century: in Croatian, primostiti means "to bridge". The high point of the village, the Church of St. George, watches over the stunning bay enveloped in crystal-clear waters while, to the north of the peninsula, the charming beach of Raduca reveals itself between the skies and the pine forest. Further on, the vines of the renowned babic varietal, protected from erosion by low stone walls, complete this idyllic setting. ...

    • Split, Croatia
    On the Dalmatian coast, the town of Split offers cultural visits in a seaside atmosphere. Close to the seafront shaded by palm trees, the historical centre listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site boasts a unique building: the Diocletian's Palace. Here you will explore its galleries, courtyards with carved columns, as well as a former mausoleum converted into a church, namely Saint Domnius Cathedral. If you get peckish, stop off at a terrace in Pjaca, the main square in the old town, where you can try a palacinka, a kind of pancake topped with melted cheese. ...

    Hvar, Croatia
    • Hvar, Croatia
    Off the coast of Split, Hvar will surprise you by its traditions that have not changed since Antiquity. The country's oldest town, Stari Grad, is here on this Dalmatian island. The town nestles by a cove on the north-west coast, surrounded by dry stone wall structures on the Stari Grad plains. These have been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site because they were built in the time of the Ancient Greeks. From these parcels of land come wines and olive oil manufactured manually. In the upper part of town, it is possible to discover hams and cheeses made by local producers. ...

    Kotor, Montenegro
    • Kotor, Montenegro
    Situated in one of Montenegro's most beautiful bays, the medieval city of Kotor is a small town full of charm, truly imbued with the traditions and stories of another time. Built between the 12th and 14th centuries, this village, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, has preserved many historical monuments from this epoch. During your stop, be sure to admire the impressive castle that dominates the town, and let yourself fall under the charm of its maze of small streets and intimate squares on which folk festivals featuring magnificent colourful costumes are often organised. ...

    • Miljet, Croatia
    Discover Mljet Island off the Peljesac peninsula. Known for its national park and its protected forests, this pristine Croatian island offers many opportunities for walking with bays linked to two saltwater lakes. On the largest lake Veliko Jezero, a small island is home to an old Benedictine monastery. ...

    • Korcula, Croatia
    This harbor town has a very special location, presiding on a spur on the north-eastern coast of the island of Korcula. The ramparts in its medieval district provide perfect vantage points over the Peljesac peninsula. To get there, you can take the monumental staircase in the Revelin Tower. Another way is to climb the steps in the shade of palm trees from the Morska Vrata (Sea Gate). As you make your way through the little streets, you'll see the bell-tower of Saint Mark's Cathedral rise above you. This landmark will help you locate the house where Marco Polo was allegedly born. The island also has some of its own famous wines like the red Plavac and the white Posip. ...

    Dubrovnik, Croatia
    • Dubrovnik, Croatia
    Emblem of the Dalmatian coast, Dubrovnik is magnificently positioned on a rocky spur. History is sovereign here, in this ancient city, now a listed UNESCO World Heritage Site. You will perhaps be surprised by the proportions of La Placa, the central drag through the city. The sheer width of it can be explained by the fact that it straddles a former lagoon. The elegant houses along La Placa are built in the legendary travertine stone. At Pile Gate, you will be greeted by the statue of the patron saint of Dubrovnik, and you can admire the coastline as you walk along the ramparts. But what's inside Saint John Fortress, adjoining the outer walls? A maritime museum and an aquarium featuring rare fish from the Adriatic. ...
