Where this voyage takes you
Day-by-day itinerary
- Day1

Fusina
Depart 17:00
A mainland port on the Venetian Lagoon in northeast Italy, used as the cruise gateway to Venice. A short water crossing reaches St. Mark's Square, the Grand Canal and the maze of bridges that make up the historic island city.

Split
Arrive 09:00 · Depart 18:00
A Croatian port on the Dalmatian coast, built quite literally inside the walls of a Roman emperor's retirement palace. Diocletian's Palace still forms the living old town, its cellars and courtyards woven through with cafes, shops and the cathedral.

Dubrovnik
Arrive 08:00 · Depart 17:00
A walled city on Croatia's Dalmatian coast, its limestone old town wrapped in sea-facing ramparts above the Adriatic. Ships call here for the marble main street of Stradun, the circuit of the city walls and the cable car to Mount Srđ.
