Small ship cruising specialist, Sail Croatia, has launched a brand-new World Heritage Cruise.
Tailored for cultural aficionados, this cruise promises a week-long immersion in UNESCO heritage sites and breathtaking natural wonders.
The World Heritage Cruise spans seven nights, taking guests to five of Croatia’s UNESCO-protected gems, along with visits to national parks and historical landmarks. From ancient ruins to pristine landscapes, every stop of the Heritage Cruise is a testament to Croatia’s rich cultural and natural heritage.
Departing from the UNESCO protected town of Split, the cruise will travel north to two other UNESCO sites, the seaside towns of Trogir and Šibenik. It then takes in the impressive waterfront city of Zadar with its unique sound and light installation, the ‘Sea Organ & Sun Salutation’.
The ship then starts sailing southbound towards one of Croatia’s most beautiful spots, the Krka National Park and waterfalls. This evening guests will also enjoy a private performance of Klapa, a local style of a capella singing, which is also UNESCO protected.
The final leg of the journey is spent island-hopping as the ship makes its way to Vis, best known as home to the Blue Cave, and Hvar where guests will be treated to traditional village dinner on the UNESCO Stari Grad Plain.
Upon arrival back in Split, Croatia’s second largest city, guests will have plenty of time to explore ‘Diocletian’s Palace’ which dates back to 295-305 AD.
The new itinerary will operate May 26th, June 9th, and September 1st, 2024 on Sail Croatia’s custom-built ‘Elegance’ ships.
Prices for the new cruise start from £2,049 (~ USD $2,569) per person for the June 9th, 2024 departure on Queen Jelena.
All guests will enjoy complimentary private transfers, daily breakfast and lunch, welcome reception, Captain’s dinner, local village dinner plus walking tours in Zadar, Split, Trogir & Sibenik.
Additional optional excursions are also available. To book visit www.sail-croatia.com or call tel: 020 4525 7534.
