    This morning, venture to the breathtaking Krka National Park, where waterfalls tumble through dramatic gorges, and enjoy its natural splendor.

    This morning, it’s on to Korcula, the debated home of one of the world’s most famous explorers: Marco Polo. With a local guide, wind through its herringbone-patterned streets, admiring the medieval buildings and vibrant houses in this town known as “Little Dubrovnik.” The afternoon is yours to enjoy the charms of this age-old island town and perhaps find a quiet spot to savor a glass of local Pošip wine.

    Korcula - Mljet National Park - Slano - Ljubac - Slano

    This morning, immerse yourself in the serene beauty of Mljet National Park.

Embrace the feeling that you’ve stepped into another time as you explore the Old City with a local guide. During this walk, be prepared to navigate stairs and trek carefully across slippery limestone pavement. The rest of the day is yours to create your own perfect Dubrovnik moment — walk the walls, take a cable car to the top of Mount Srd for awe-inspiring views of Dubrovnik, or simply enjoy the day on the Stradun (main street).
