DAY 1
Please advise us of your flight schedule, and we will meet you at Split Airport. You need to arrive by 5.00 pm at the latest. Upon arrival, we’ll be transferred to the centre of Split, Croatia’s second largest city. Check into comfortable private accommodation. Welcome dinner.

DAY 2
Breakfast. Check out. A morning hike on the Marjan Peninsula, a forest-park known as ‘the lungs of Split’. We’ll hike to its highest peak which offers spectacular views out to the nearby islands and the surrounding mountains. On the way down, we’ll stop at a viewpoint with wide-ranging views over the city and harbour. After lunch in a local tavern, we’ll take a Split walking tour with a local guide. We’ll visit the underground chambers of Diocletian’s Palace and the Jupiter’s Temple. You’ll be amazed to discover the Peristyle, the central courtyard where Diocletian would have made his public appearances seventeen centuries ago, you’ll stroll along charming narrow streets and you’ll pass through the narrowest street in the world. Finally, you’ll walk along the large Riva, the main city promenade, a place to see and be seen. Later in the afternoon, we’ll catch a public ferry to Brač Island, followed by a short transfer by minibus to Pučišća, a seaside town on the northern shore of the island. After getting settled in a luxury heritage hotel, we’ll gather for a stonemason’s dinner.

DAY 3
After breakfast, we’ll be transferred to the village of Gažul from where we’ll start today’s hike to the top of Vidova Gora, the highest peak in the Adriatic Islands. The view takes in the whole of Hvar Island, with Vis Island, the Pelješac Peninsula and Biokovo Mountain filling the horizon. Lunch in a restaurant with a million dollar view. After lunch, we’ll hike down a rocky slope of Vidova Gora to reach the town of Bol. Wine tasting followed by a stroll in Bol and a visit to the Croatian modern art gallery. Transfer back to the hotel where the remainder of the day is at your own leisure.

DAY 4
After breakfast and check out, we’ll set off into the island’s rocky interior. Soon after we find ourselves in the middle of nowhere, a rocky dirt road will appear. The objective of our hike is the remote 16th-century monastery, in an extraordinary location, on the side of a rugged, isolated valley – Pustinja Blaca. It’s simply stunning! You’ll have the feeling that its peace and tranquility are almost palpable. After taking in the spectacular setting and visiting a former hermitage, we’ll continue downhill towards the southern shore. We’ll pass through a narrow gorge before reaching a shingle beach. From here, the trail takes us past delightful coves and their miniature beaches. Then, we’ll take a short transfer to the town of Bol where we’ll allow ourselves a stroll on Croatia’s most famous beach – Zlatni Rat. Lunch in a local tavern before boarding a catamaran ferry for a short transfer to our next island – Hvar. We’ll disembark in Jelsa, a fishing town built around a natural harbour. After checking into private accommodation, we’ll meet on the seafront promenade for our evening meal.

DAY 5
Breakfast. After a short transfer to Stari Grad, the island’s oldest settlement, we’ll take a morning hike northwest of the town. It’s an easy hike along wide tracks and woodland paths, offering amazing views of Stari Grad’s deep inlet, and beyond, Vidova Gora on Brač Island. We’ll make a loop passing the summit of Glavica on the way back to Stari Grad. Then we’ll wander through the narrow streets behind the harbour, stumbling across hidden gems like the Renaissance fortified mansion built by the local poet Petar Hektorović. After visiting an unusual residence, we’ll walk to the Stari Grad Plain, a large, fertile plain where the marks of the Greek parcelisation two and half thousand years ago are still visible. We’ll walk along paths that crisscross the rectangular plots of the plain. A homely lunch will be served in a tavern in the middle of the plain. After lunch, we’ll continue across the plain towards Vrboska, known as Little Venice. Situated at the very base of a deep bay, Vrboska is a quiet place with old houses reflecting in the water. We’ll stroll along fishing harbour in search of the fortified Church of St. Mary. Later in the afternoon, we’ll take a coastal walk back to Jelsa. The remainder of the day is at your own leisure.

DAY 6
After breakfast and check out, we’ll be transferred to the village of Svirče from where we’ll start our hike up to the highest peak of Hvar Island, Sveti Nikola (628 m). It’s a good two-hour ascent to the top. The route to the summit traverses olive groves, lavender fields, shady woodlands and, in the upper reaches, bare hillsides. At the top, you’ll be surprised by an extraordinarily wide-ranging view. The summit hosts a large cross and a small chapel in the vestibule of which we’ll take a break. After enjoying spectacular views, we’ll follow a wide track along the island’s east-west ridge, towards the village of Velo Grablje, and then Malo Grablje, the latter completely abandoned. Here, you’ll be far away from the tourist-favoured coast. After visiting Malo Grablje, we’ll descend to Milna, a seaside hamlet on the southern shore. Lunch in a restaurant close to the sea, followed by a short transfer to Hvar Town. Here, we’ll explore the main square Pjaca, bordered by the cathedral and the bishop’s palace, and wander through the Old Town, before catching a public catamaran ferry to Korčula Island. In the evening, we’ll arrive in Korčula Town on the eastern tip of the island. After checking into private accommodation, we’ll have dinner in a restaurant in the Old Town.

DAY 7
After breakfast, we take a short transfer to Žrnovo village from where we’ll start today’s circular hike to the jagged southeastern shore of Korčula Island. We’ll reach some of the most remote beaches on the island, before having lunch in a tavern that appears out of nowhere. Of course, you can jump into the sea and swim for as long as you want. In the afternoon, it’s a hike uphill amongst dense vegetation, and then transfer to an organic farm for honey tasting. We’ll meet a local beekeeper and learn about life in a beehive, the different jobs the bees are doing, how they make honey and why they are always as busy as a bee. Return to the hotel where you’ll have some free time. Then it’s a short transfer to a rustic tavern outside the town for a finger-licking good dinner.

DAY 8
Breakfast today is followed by a boat transfer across the channel from Korčula Town to Kučište, a small village on the Pelješac Peninsula. Here we’ll take a hike to the Franciscan Monastery of Our Lady of the Angels. Most of the time, the walk is at an altitude of 150 metres with stunning panoramic views before it descends into Orebić, a town at the foot of Mount St. Elias. From Orebić, we’ll continue by boat to visit Korčula’s Archipelago. We’ll lunch in a restaurant on a small islet. Return to Korčula by boat for some traditional sweet pastries tasting. Free time. In the early evening, we’ll take a guided walking tour through the medieval streets of the Old Town which are laid out in a fishbone pattern. Dinner in the Old Town.

DAY 9
Breakfast today prepares us for a 30-minute transfer to Blato, an intriguing inland settlement where the streets have numbers instead of names. From here it’s a hike up to Kom Peak, the second highest peak on Korčula Island. From the top, you’ll get a 360° view of all the nearby islands. After a break, we’ll descend through the pine forest to Blato for lunch in a local tavern. After lunch we’ll visit the Barilo ethnographic museum where we’ll also do some tasting of local brandies. A short transfer to Smokvica village for Pošip wine tasting. Joyful, we’ll return to Korčula Town where the remainder of the day is at your own leisure.

DAY 10
We’ll check out after breakfast and board a catamaran ferry for a short transfer to our next island – Mljet. We’ll disembark in Pomena, a seaside hamlet at the western tip of the island. From here, we begin our first hike in the Mljet National Park. Our objective is to reach the Zakamenica viewpoint above the waves breaking on the rugged south coast. Further on, a charming view of St. Mary’s Islet will open up. We’ll descend to the shore of the Great Lake, take a boat and visit the Benedictine Monastery. Lunch in the restaurant on a serene islet. After lunch, we’ll take a boat to the Small Bridge for another short hike around the Small Lake. Here and there, the narrow shaded path almost touches the lake. The hike will end in Pomena. Time to check into private accommodation and tuck into a fisherman’s dinner.

DAY 11
After breakfast, we begin our hike in the direction of the village of Goveđari, the oldest village within the park. From here we’ll continue towards Veliki Gradac Hill and the Montokuc viewpoint. The view from Montokuc takes in the whole National Park. After taking a break, we’ll hike down a rocky path scented with sage plants. The path descends steeply to the Soline Straits. Lunch will be in a restaurant where the Great Lake meets the open sea. Suitably replenished, we’ll hike along the Lakes back to Pomena. In Pomena you’ll have some free time, followed by our evening meal.

DAY 12
Breakfast today prepares us for the last day in the Mljet National Park. We’ll start to hike from Pomena towards the northern shore of the island. Shortly, a view of surrounding islets will open up. The rocky path leads through Mediterranean undergrowth along the coast. A little further ahead, the path starts to climb, and after a magnificent view over the islet of Maslinovac, we’ll continue downhill scrambling over boulders. The final part of this hike will be on a flat, smooth path around an indented bay. We’ll arrive in Polače, a seaside hamlet with Roman ruins. After visiting the
remains of a fourth-century Roman palace, we’ll have lunch in a local tavern. In the afternoon, a short transfer takes us to the village of Babino Polje, in the middle of the island. From here, we’ll hike to the Odysseus Cave. The hike is steep with a lot of jagged rocks, but the place is impressive. Later, we’ll take a transfer back to Pomena, followed by some free time. Dinner.

DAY 13
Breakfast. Check out. Transfer by a public catamaran ferry to Dubrovnik, followed by a short transfer to the Old Town. Welcome to amazing Dubrovnik! Firstly, we’ll take a normal walking tour with a local guide, although nothing can be described as normal in Dubrovnik, and then, we’ll have lunch in a restaurant in the Old Town. Later in the afternoon, we’ll walk on the Dubrovnik Walls as if we’re walking on the roof of the world. Time for a short walk to the hotel for our final check in. The remainder of the day is at your own leisure.

DAY 14
Breakfast. Later in the morning, we’ll hike up Mount Srđ which towers above Dubrovnik as a natural rampart. From the top, a stunning view stretches as far as you can see. To descend, we’ll make a loop, and you’ll see the Old Town from several different angles. Our last lunch will be in an amazing restaurant in the Old Town. The remainder of the day is at your own leisure.

DAY 15
