JOIN FUN HAPPENINGS TRAVEL GROUP FOR THIS UNIQUE & EXCLUSIVE PRIVATE YACHT TOUR TO 4 AMAZING COUNTRIES ON THE ADRIATIC SEA THIS SEPTEMBER 11TH – 24TH 2024.

Don't miss this Amazing opportunity of a Lifetime to explore GREECE, ALBANIA, MONTENEGRO & CROATIA on the Adriatic Sea by private yacht! There is no better way to visit this part of the world, than by private yacht! We are exploring this beautiful Adriatic region on the Panorama, a 173 foot 24-cabin luxury yacht from Athens Greece to Dubrovnik Croatia.

This region is one of the most beautiful and pristine regions in the world, where few Americans venture, as the Adriatic Sea is more remote. Fun Happenings’ 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 don’t go.

We begin our tour in Athens with a culinary and walking tour before checking into our 5-star overnight stay at the Divani Palace Acropolis in Athens, Greece. There is no better hotel in Athens, to explore the history of ancient Greece than this beautiful centrally located hotel in the Platka neighborhood. The next morning, we offer an optional guided walking tour of the nearby Acropolis, then after lunch, we embark on our private yacht tour for 10 days to visit 4 Amazing countries, where we wake up to a different port each day. We end our Amazing Tour with 2 nights in Dubrovnik Croatia, where we will explore this charming Medieval city, filled with history and where the famous Television series, "Game of Thrones" was filmed.

Our 13 Day Land & Yacht Tour visits the unique and charming coastal ports and islands of Athens GR, Kefalonia GR, Lefkada GR, AntiPaxos GR, Paxos GR, Corfu GR, Durres Albania, Kotor Montenegro, Korcula CR, Hvar CR and ending with 2 full days in Dubrovnik Croatia…

ABOUT OUR 4 COUNTRY YACHT & LAND TOUR IN THE ADRIATIC SEA:
Our exclusive private Adriatic Yacht & Land Tour takes us to a new port each day. We created this custom itinerary to maximize our time in each port, creating a relaxing and enjoyable trip! Daily activities are included and there's plenty of free time built into our schedule, allowing for you to explore on your own, quite the opposite of a rushed cruise ship itinerary with little time in each port.

You will Check Off 4 Amazing Countries and 2 UNESCO World Heritage sites off your Bucket List with tours in these amazing ports each day. We will navigate through the deepest natural fjord in the Mediterranean in the Bay of Kotor. We will drink homemade wine in the charming village of Zrnovo, as we dine at Frank’s family-owned restaurant on the island of Korcula.

ABOUT OUR PRIVATE YACHT, THE M/S PANORAMA:
Imagine 173 feet of comfort, sleek beauty, and safety classified by the latest International SOLAS standards. Imagine your floating home on board the sleek, classic design Mega Yacht as she spreads her white sails through the seas under the name PANORAMA, waving her Greek flag through the wind. Discover the world by sea at 11 knots per hour, in her un-rushed pace, one island or seashore at a time on board the ultimate 3 masted motor sailer cruiser. Panorama loves to seduce her guests with her classic lines and wood paneled lounges redefining what yachting was meant to be. A spacious lounge with ample space, dining areas decorated with warm colors, rich library and two decks for sunbathing, shaded areas and outdoor bar and loungers are just some of the elements that define her essence. 360° views of the unobstructed ocean are your eyes’ canvas painted with ocean blue and deep green mountains. Embrace freedom as the Panorama sets her white sails seduced by the clear winds of the sea. Mingle with like minded travelers in our public areas, enjoy a moment to yourself in our ample deck space, or retreat to one of our 24 ocean view cabin-sanctuaries all offering windows or portholes connecting you with mother nature’s wonders.

The activities, sights and islands chosen for this itinerary were carefully hand selected, to create an incredible Trip of a Lifetime to 4 Amazing countries… We are certainly experiencing the “Best of the Best” of the Adriatic Sea! And because we are cruising on our own private yacht, we are experiencing unique “Off the Beaten Path” areas that most tourists rarely visit, as cruise ships do not visit these ports… Places like Korčula Croatia, Hvar Croatia, Paxos Island, Durres Albania, Corfu Greece, Kefalonia Greece, Lefkada Greece and Kotor Montenegro are special hidden gems that we will experience from the comfort of our private yacht!
