Description
Discover the historical and architectural treasures of the Dalmatian Coast with this exceptional itinerary.
From Italy to Croatia, you will sail the Adriatic for 8 days aboard Le Lyrial.
From Venice, you will reach Montenegro by sailing through the famous Bay of Kotor. This impressive gash between two mountain ranges is home to a veritable inland lake with a magical atmosphere; the medieval city of Kotor and its many historical monuments are its jewels.
Le Lyrial will then reach Dubrovnik. Sitting high on a rocky outcrop, its old town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, observes its visitors, and its monasteries, palaces and fountains from the Renaissance are each more graceful than the next.
Your discovery of Croatia will continue with the islands of Mljet and Korcula. They each have a very distinct history. According to the legend, Mljet is where Ulysses stayed for seven years after being spellbound by the nymph Calypso. The medieval city of Korcula is said to be the birthplace of Marco Polo.
Your exploration of the Adriatic Coast will conclude with visit of Piran, before you head back to Venice.
