Venice and Croatian Islands Cruise - Reverse

Get ready to explore the magic of Venice, the Istrian peninsula, and Croatia’s islands along the northern Adriatic Sea. Medieval architecture, sunny islands, and a private small cruise ship await you in Croatia. Discover the stunning coastlines, nature parks, culinary delicacies, art, and interwoven history across the northern Adriatic.

Welcome to Venice, an enchanting city with its 117 tiny islands surrounded by a latticework of 150 canals and 400 bridges. As travelers' arrival times will vary, we have not included any sightseeing today, and the day is yours to explore “The Floating City” independently. This evening, meet your fellow travelers over a welcome dinner and toast to the beginning of a memorable voyage.

This morning, travel by boat to Murano Island for an expert glass-blowing demonstration – a centuries-old tradition on the island. Then, join your local guide for a walking tour of Venice’s most iconic sights. Pause for a perfect view over the Bridge of Sighs and take in St. Mark’s Square, adorned with marbled palaces and gilded basilicas. The rest of the day is yours to explore.

This morning, say ciao to Venice as you head towards Slovenia. Along the way, experience the Italian region of Collio. Tucked in the northeast corner of Italy and covered with sunny hills and slopes, this region is home to some of the world’s best and most unique white wines. Pause for lunch at a family-owned winery before continuing your journey to Slovenia. This evening, soak in the beauty of Portorož – a resort town on Slovenia’s Adriatic Coast.
