On this private Croatia and Montenegro tour, visit the most beautiful destinations on the Dalmatian Coast and relax at a luxurious resort in Montenegro.
Begin in the ancient city of Split with private touring of Diocletian's Palace, one of the most impressive Roman ruins in the world and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. With your private guide, walk through this living archaeological site, and see highlights such as the Peristyle, the Cathedral of Saint Domnius and the bell tower.
Continue by private boat cruise to Hvar for three nights on one of the most beautiful and sunniest islands in the Adriatic Sea. During private touring, explore Hvar Town, a picturesque collection of stone buildings around a natural harbor with crystal clear water, including highlights such as the Arsenal and St. Stephen's Cathedral. Perhaps also learn about local lace-making traditions or climb to a hilltop fortress for panoramic views over the town and waterfront. One day, enjoy a private cruise among the Pakleni Islands, an attractive archipelago of rocky shores and fragrant pine forests. Also enjoy ample time to relax at your resort on Hvar and browse local shops. Artisans of Leisure can arrange additional activities such as touring the historic town of Stari Grad, tasting local wines and olive oils, and driving into the mountains to visit tavernas and see abandoned villages, olive groves, fruit orchards and lavender fields.
Next, cruise by private boat to the island of Korcula. Explore the narrow streets and small squares of medieval Korcula Town, which has Greek and Venetian roots. See architectural and cultural highlights such as the Marco Polo House and Cathedral of St. Mark.
Continue to Dubrovnik, a beautiful historic city overlooking the Adriatic Sea. With your expert private guide, explore the highlights of the Old City of Dubrovnik, a UNESCO World Heritage Site with medieval city walls, white limestone streets, and well-preserved Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque architecture. Walk atop the ramparts, visit historic palaces and monasteries, and explore the most interesting neighborhoods and backstreets. Also browse for unique crafts, olive oil and other Croatian specialties at local shops. Additional activities can be arranged, such as hiking on Lokrum Island, sea kayaking along the coast, visiting vineyards and oyster farms on the Peljesac Peninsula or an excursion to Mostar (Bosnia-Herzegovina).
One day, enjoy a private boat excursion among the rural Elafiti (Elaphiti) Islands, stopping at small coves and beaches to swim in the Adriatic or walk through fragrant forests of pine and cypress.
Next, transfer to Montenegro, and enjoy a private tour along the shore of the fjord-like Bay of Kotor, where steep mountains plunge into the sea. Visit Perast, a waterfront town of Renaissance palaces, and take a boat excursion to the island church of Our Lady of the Rocks. Also tour the historic center of Kotor, a picturesque walled port town and UNESCO World Heritage Site of hidden squares, charming cafes and buildings dating to the 15th century. Also enjoy ample time for spa treatments and relaxing at your resort.
This tour can be further customized to include additional time in Croatia or neighboring countries such as Italy and Slovenia.
