## JOIN FUN HAPPENINGS TRAVEL GROUP #1 FOR THIS UNIQUE & EXCLUSIVE LUXURE 5-STAR YACHT AND LAND TOUR THROUGH CROATIAâŚ
Don't miss this Amazing opportunity of a Lifetime! There is no better way to visit this part of the world than by private yacht and our yacht is a 5-Star beauty! We have chartered the MS Rhapsody luxury yacht from Dubrovnik to Trogir for this Amazing sailing!
The Adriatic region is one of the most beautiful and pristine regions in the world, where few Americans venture and the Adriatic Sea is less touristy than other areas in the Mediterranean. Fun Happeningsâ Yacht itineraries offer a more intimate and relaxing experience, versus a cruise ship, as we maximize our time in each port and visit places where the mega cruise ships donât visit. The Adriatic is much different, with more blue turquoise waters, white sandy beaches and less crowded. In addition, the seas are very calm in this protected body of water, with a maximum of 1 foot waves, so perfect for anyone prone to seasickness.
We will spend 3 days (2 Nights) upon arrival in this charming Medieval city, filled with history and where the famous Television series, "Game of Thrones" was filmed. Dubrovnik feels like stepping into a storybook city that never stopped living. Encircled by towering stone walls and topped with terracotta roofs, the Old Town glows in the Adriatic sunlight, its polished marble streets leading you past fountains, bell towers, and grand old palaces. CafĂŠs spill into the squares, laundry hangs from centuries-old windows, and church bells mark the passing of time in a place that moves at its own, gentle rhythm. Evenings are especially atmospheric, when lanterns light up the alleyways and the sound of clinking glasses and live music drifts through the warm night air.Culture here is woven into everyday life. Local cuisine celebrates the sea and the seasons, with fresh seafood, olive oil, and regional wines reflecting Dalmatian coastal traditions. You will experience a strong sense of historyârooted in the legacy of the old Republic of Ragusaâalongside a creative, modern energy in galleries, theaters, and summer events. It is this blend of old-world elegance and relaxed Mediterranean spirit that gives Dubrovnik its unmistakable charm and makes it so memorable for travelers.
After our 3 amazing days in Dubrovnik, we begin our adventure on our private chartered yacht departing on Saturday, August 29th for 7 amazing nights. We set sail on a one-way cruise from Dubrovnik to the Split area (Trogir), exploring some of Croatiaâs most captivating destinations. Over seven incredible days, immerse ourselves in the beauty of islands like Hvar, Vis, KorÄula, and the mesmerizing Mljet National Park. We enjoy guided city tours, swim in secluded bays, and indulge in authentic Croatian cuisine. Whether strolling through UNESCO-listed towns, discovering hidden coves, or sipping wine in centuries-old vineyards, this journey offers a perfect mix of relaxation and discovery. With carefully curated experiences and expert local guides, this cruise promises to be the highlight of your Croatian adventure!
We end our tour enjoying all that Split has to offer for 2 additional nights. Split is Croatiaâs second-largest city and a lively coastal hub on the Adriatic, known for its blend of ancient Roman heritage, seaside atmosphere, and laid-back Mediterranean lifestyle. It feels both historic and lived-in, with locals and visitors sharing the same stone streets, waterfront promenades, and cafĂŠ terraces. Split is known for its relaxed, social vibe, with locals lingering over coffee on the Riva promenade and streets staying lively well into the evening. The city balances museums, galleries, and historical sights with beach bars, nightlife, and a relaxing Mediterranean vibe.
ACCOMODATIONS IN CROATIA FOR OUR 12 DAY YACHT & LAND TOUR:
Our Private Yacht: Luxury 5-Star MS Rhapsody
The MS Rhapsody embarked on her maiden voyage in 2020. The 164-foot-long deluxe superior vessel provides an elegant experience without the high price tag, including luxurious perks like cabins with private balconies, a sundeck with a hot tub and an air-conditioned restaurant/bar with panoramic windows. Due to her limited passenger capacity of just 38 guests, she allows for a more intimate cruise and access to both popular and lesser-known destinations.
There are multiple common areas for socializing, relaxing and enjoying the scenery, like the covered outdoor lounge with comfortable sofas, but the most popular is the large sundeck â no need to worry about staking yours out early as there are enough loungers for every passenger. Thereâs also a Jacuzzi for soaking while surrounded by gorgeous views, and when itâs time for a swim stop, youâll be able to access those clear sapphire waters easily from the swimming platform with ladders.⨠Our Luxury Dubrovnik Hotel (2 nights): 5-Star Sun Gardens Dubrovnik

Optional excursion to a small village near KorÄula Town for a typical Dalmatian dinner and learn about the history and traditional way of living.

WED. SEPT. 2 - DAY 7: KORÄULA - VIS / KOMIĹ˝A - Continue to the island of Vis, once, in the 4th century BC, one of the main Greek colonies. Vis remains relatively under the radar for tourists, partly because it served as a Yugoslav military base until 1991. That long isolation left the islandâs culture and architecture remarkably well preserved. Rosemary, capers and sage grow wild across the landscape, adding to its quiet, authentic charm. Try some exquisite local wines, and if youâre up for exploring, visit the remains of the Roman thermal baths or the City Museum. A stroll along the waterfront reveals the remains of ancient villae rusticae and the timeless island atmosphere. Overnight stay is planned in Vis or KomiĹža (subject to berth availability), both offering a genuine taste of the islandâs character.

Don't miss this Amazing opportunity of a Lifetime! There is no better way to visit this part of the world than by private yacht and our yacht is a 5-Star beauty! We have chartered the MS Rhapsody luxury yacht from Dubrovnik to Trogir for this Amazing sailing!
The Adriatic region is one of the most beautiful and pristine regions in the world, where few Americans venture and the Adriatic Sea is less touristy than other areas in the Mediterranean. Fun Happeningsâ Yacht itineraries offer a more intimate and relaxing experience, versus a cruise ship, as we maximize our time in each port and visit places where the mega cruise ships donât visit. The Adriatic is much different, with more blue turquoise waters, white sandy beaches and less crowded. In addition, the seas are very calm in this protected body of water, with a maximum of 1 foot waves, so perfect for anyone prone to seasickness.
We will spend 4 days (3 Nights) upon arrival enjoying all that Split has to offer. Split is Croatiaâs second-largest city and a lively coastal hub on the Adriatic, known for its blend of ancient Roman heritage, seaside atmosphere, and laid-back Mediterranean lifestyle. It feels both historic and lived-in, with locals and visitors sharing the same stone streets, waterfront promenades, and cafĂŠ terraces. Split is known for its relaxed, social vibe, with locals lingering over coffee on the Riva promenade and streets staying lively well into the evening. The city balances museums, galleries, and historical sights with beach bars, nightlife, and a relaxing Mediterranean vibe.
After our 4 amazing days in Split, we begin our adventure on our private chartered yacht departing on Saturday, September 5th for 7 amazing nights. We set sail on a one-way cruise from the Split area to Dubrovnik, exploring some of Croatiaâs most captivating destinations. Over 8 incredible days, immerse ourselves in the beauty of islands like Hvar, Vis, KorÄula, and the mesmerizing Mljet National Park. We enjoy guided city tours, swim in secluded bays, and indulge in authentic Croatian cuisine. Whether strolling through UNESCO-listed towns, discovering hidden coves, or sipping wine in centuries-old vineyards, this journey offers a perfect mix of relaxation and discovery. With carefully curated experiences and expert local guides, this cruise promises to be the highlight of your Croatian adventure!We end our tour in Dubrovnik Croatia, where we spend 2 nights in this charming Medieval city, filled with history and where the famous Television series, "Game of Thrones" was filmed. Dubrovnik feels like stepping into a storybook city that never stopped living. Encircled by towering stone walls and topped with terracotta roofs, the Old Town glows in the Adriatic sunlight, its polished marble streets leading you past fountains, bell towers, and grand old palaces. CafĂŠs spill into the squares, laundry hangs from centuries-old windows, and church bells mark the passing of time in a place that moves at its own, gentle rhythm. Evenings are especially atmospheric, when lanterns light up the alleyways and the sound of clinking glasses and live music drifts through the warm night air.
Culture here is woven into everyday life. Local cuisine celebrates the sea and the seasons, with fresh seafood, olive oil, and regional wines reflecting Dalmatian coastal traditions. You will experience a strong sense of historyârooted in the legacy of the old Republic of Ragusaâalongside a creative, modern energy in galleries, theaters, and summer events. It is this blend of old-world elegance and relaxed Mediterranean spirit that gives Dubrovnik its unmistakable charm and makes it so memorable for travelers.⨠TO VIEW GOOGLE DOCS TRIP BROCHURE WITH MORE DETAILS ON TRIP, DAILY ITINERARY AND MORE PHOTOS, GO TO
