Imagine gliding through the crystal-clear waters of the Adriatic, stopping at sun-drenched islands where centuries-old vineyards produce some of Croatia’s most celebrated wines. A new luxury cruise experience is making this dream a reality, combining breathtaking coastal scenery with immersive wine tastings.
A Floating Wine Tour
The carefully curated itinerary takes passengers along Croatia’s stunning Dalmatian coast, visiting renowned wineries on islands like Hvar, Korčula, and Brač. Guests will enjoy private tours of family-run vineyards, sample premium Plavac Mali and Pošip varieties, and learn about Croatia’s rich winemaking heritage.
Luxury Onboard Experience
The small ship – carrying just 38 passengers – offers an intimate setting with elegant cabins, a sun deck perfect for sunset wine sipping, and a restaurant serving locally-inspired gourmet meals paired with regional wines. Expert sommeliers host daily tastings and workshops onboard.
Why Croatia’s Wine Scene Stands Out
Croatia’s unique terroir, with its limestone-rich soil and Mediterranean climate, produces distinctive wines that are gaining international acclaim. The cruise showcases boutique wineries that are difficult to access independently, offering an exclusive insight into this emerging wine destination.
Beyond the Vineyards
When not wine tasting, passengers can swim in secluded coves, explore medieval coastal towns like Dubrovnik and Split, or simply relax as the ship sails past dramatic cliffs and idyllic islands. The cruise perfectly balances cultural discovery with pure relaxation.
This seven-day voyage runs from May through October, with departures timed to avoid peak summer crowds. Prices start from £2,300 per person, including all meals, wine experiences, and guided excursions.
