Mostar, Trogir and Split Pre-Voyage Extension

Extraordinary experiences in a beautiful land with rich history

Begin in the great Old Towns of Split and Trogir, whose cobblestones, ancient buildings and narrow lanes combine the richness of the past with the vibrancy of the present. Then see historic Mostar in Bosnia and Herzegovina, where you’ll visit the beautiful, renowned Old Bridge, whose rebuilding has come to symbolize the rebirth of the Balkan States.

Day 1 - Split

Arrive in Split and transfer to the Hotel Park. This evening, we enjoy a welcome reception and dinner. (D)

Day 2 - Split

The morning is devoted to the archaeological highlights of Salona, which was capital of the Roman province of Dalmatia and the likely birthplace of the emperor Diocletian. In the afternoon, we explore Split, a UNESCO Site, seeing Diocletian’s Palace, which is more a small city than a single palace. It bustles with archaeological wonders from Classical Rome through the Byzantine and Venetian periods, and maintains a lively pulse of shops and street merchants today. Spend the evening exploring Split on your own. (B,L)

Day 3 - Dalmatian Coast and Trogir & Split

A morning drive takes us along the Dalmatian coastline. We arrive in medieval Trogir, a small island town also designated a UNESCO Site, whose main square, Cathedral, streets and alleyways invite exploration. We have a typical Dalmatian lunch at a local restaurant. We then drive to historic Mostar, in Bosnia & Herzegovina. This beautiful town spans the Neretva River and is famed for its Old Bridge. This spectacularly graceful bridge stood between 1556 and 1993, when it was destroyed during the Yugoslav civil war. It has now been lovingly rebuilt, using stone from the original quarries, and the bridge and the surrounding Old Town are also a UNESCO World Heritage Site. We have dinner at a local restaurant and stay at the Hotel Mostar or Hotel Mepas. (B,L,D)

Day 4 - Mostar/Dubrovnik/Embark

We take a morning walking tour of historic Mostar, and have additional free time to explore on our own. After lunch, we drive along the Dalmatian Coast to Dubrovnik, where we embark Sea Cloud. (B,L)
