Croatia Bike & Boat

Arrive Trogir (near Split) to board and check-in between 1.00pm to 1.30pm. The boat departs for the island of Šolta at 2.00pm. Split airport is approx. 3mi./5 km from the harbour of Trogir. We can assist with an arrival transfer on request (not included). The first night is spent in a quiet harbour on the island of Solta with the opportunity to take a swim after a day of travel.

During breakfast, we enjoy a cruise to the Island of Vis. Vis is the furthermost inhabited island from mainland Croatia. A Greek colony called Issa inhabited the island 2,300 years ago. Due to its strategic location it was a military zone until 1995 and closed to foreign tourists. Today we have the opportunity to explore the lovely island by bicycle and relax as we spend the night here.

In the morning we leave the island of Vis and navigate to the harbor town of Vela Luka on the Island of Korcula. Along the way we throw the anchor for a refreshing swim stop. Korcula is regarded as one of the most scenic islands in the Adriatic, abundant in viewpoints and quaint villages nestled in the green. Once we arrive in Vela Luka we can enjoy a round tour from Vela Luka to the village of Blato and back again. The night is spent in Vela Luka on the western side of the island.

The day starts with a relaxing cruise to Hvar town on Hvar Island. Make use of the time before the cycle tour starts and go for a little stroll through the city. Standing on the magnificent Renaissance Square you can enjoy a view up to the Spanish fortress towering high above the city. Today's bike tour takes us from the city of Hvar through small villages and lavender fields to Stari Grad on the opposite side of the island. The descent to Stari Grad offers breathtaking views. After a lunch break we continue on a second cycling tour through the green planes of the island to the seaside town of Jelsa. After a break for coffee and ice cream, we continue the round trip back to Stari Grad where we spend the night.

In the morning we cruise to the island of Brac, famous for its radiant, precious limestone that was, among others, used for the White House in Washington and in the construction of the German Reichstag building in Berlin. Once we have arrived on Brac, we start our bike tour from Milna to the picturesque harbor town of Postira. At first we cycle inland through small villages and past local architectural relics before hugging the coast with spectacular views across the channel to the mainland. On arrival in Postira there are many ways in which to enjoy the rest of the afternoon. The night is spent in the quiet harbor of Postira.

During breakfast the boat cruises to Omiš. Today you have the choice either to take a bus transfer to go rafting through the Cetina Canyon (not included in the tour price) or a cycle tour around Omiš. The bike tour takes us around the outskirts of the canyon with great views over the river and back down towards the sea. The rafting group will be picked up from the boat by bus. From the starting point you will follow the river downstream in the rafts gaining a unique perspective of the canyon and its flora and fauna. Participants of the rafting trip are brought back to the boat in the bus after the activity. In the afternoon we cruise to Split, where we spend the night.

In the morning, we enjoy our last cruise back to Trogir. From here, we take the bikes across the local bridge to Ciovo Island where we enjoy our last bicycle tour. Ciovo is a sea of flowers and the aromatic scent of wild herbs hangs in the air. We cycle to the local beach where we can enjoy a refreshing swim and coffee break before returning to the boat in Trogir. Once we arrive, there will be plenty of time to visit the Old Town, listed as a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site. The last evening aboard is celebrated in traditional fashion in the company of our fellow travellers and crew.
