Dolce Tempo Journey from Historic Split to Dubrovnik & the Bay of Kotor
The pull of the Adriatic is strong. Pirates and merchants once sailed these waters. Dalmatian sea-trading towns once rivaled the great Italian city-states. From quaint fishing villages to luxe hidden harbors, it’s still a seafaring culture today. Explore by e-biking, walking, kayaking and sailing from Croatia to Montenegro. The sea has shaped society here. Imagine what it can do for your vacation.
Highlights
- Explore miles of untouched coastline, walk to hidden swimming coves and e-bike past vineyards and quaint villages—all with the Adriatic as your sparkling backdrop
- Learn about the fascinating history of this seafaring stretch of coastline, from medieval villages to walled fortress-towns and from Marco Polo to Game of Thrones
- Imbibe crisp wine from the sprawling vineyards of the Pelješac Peninsula, sample delicious farm-to-table-cuisine and savor the seafood of this seafaring culture
- Enjoy our luxurious lodgings, which range from elegant Relais & Châteaux and baroque 17th-century style to chic modern design with outstanding Adriatic views
