ITINERARY

Dubrovnik, Croatia
Your Mediterranean yacht cruise begins in the historic city of Dubrovnik. Often referred to as the Pearl of the Adriatic, this UNESCO World Heritage-listed city is celebrated for its breathtaking architecture—its red terracotta rooftops and pale stone walls creating a striking contrast against the turquoise waters below. Upon arrival, you’ll be transferred to your Emerald Cruises luxury yacht to embark on a voyage of intriguing cities and extraordinary coastlines.  Please book your flight to arrive into Dubrovnik prior to 06:00 PM.

Kotor, Montenegro
Enveloped by medieval walls, the fortified city of Kotor is a place of ancient stories and modern culture. Nestled between imposing mountains and the Adriatic Sea, this UNESCO World Heritage-listed setting is brimming with Venetian palaces, cobblestone lanes and café-hemmed squares. Climb the 1350 steps up to St John’s Fortress, where you’ll have spectacular views over the Bay of Kotor. 

Sarandë, Albania - Corfu, Greece
Sarandë is a popular coastal town on a crescent-shaped bay in Albania. The once sleepy fishing village has a bustling seaside promenade, pebbled beaches and ancient ruins. From Sarandë, you’ll journey across the straight to Corfu — a large island with sandy coves and hills studded with olive, cypress and citrus trees. 

Corfu, Greece
One of Greece’s most beloved and beautiful islands in the Ionian Sea, Corfu harbours a rich history and magnificent architecture displaying Renaissance and Baroque influences. Its UNESCO-listed Old Town dates to the 8th century and is a labyrinthine of alleyways and home to the largest square in Greece, the impressive Spianada, a leafy green space with gardens and historical monuments. The island is home to authentic Greek villages, as well as beaches lapped by aquamarine waters.  

Parga, Greece
Parga, on mainland Greece, has a carefree holiday atmosphere. Enjoy the sunshine on one of the many beaches, explore traditional Greek villages, and marvel at the 11th-century Castle, which offers an incredible bird’s eye view of the resort town and coastline. 

Lefkada, Greece
Known as the ‘Caribbean of Greece’, Lefkada is connected to the mainland by a narrow bridge, making it one of the few islands here reachable by car. One of the most fascinating places in Lefkada is the Castle of Agia Mavra, dating to the 14th century and built to protect Lefkada from invasions.  

Itea, Greece – Transit through the Corinth Canal
Sail to the small port of Itea, then start the journey to the archaeological site of Delphi, regarded by the Ancient Greeks as the centre of the world. Next, it’s time to pass through the 19th century Corinth Canal. A feat of engineering, this narrow waterway was cut from solid rock and is more than six kilometres long with walls that reach up to 90 metres high. It crosses the isthmus of Corinth in Greece into the Ionian Sea. 

Athens (Piraeus), Greece
After breakfast, enjoy time at leisure to explore Athens, the enthralling capital of Greece. Named after the Goddess of wisdom and warfare, Athens was once the epicentre of ancient Greece. Today, you’ll not only be captivated by the city’s historical legacies, such as the Acropolis, but also by the alluring Greek modern-day dynamism and cosmopolitan charm. In the afternoon, you’ll be welcomed back on board your Emerald Cruises luxury yacht, ready to embark on the second half of your journey, where you’ll get to explore the breathtaking Adriatic.

Delos, Greece - Mykonos, Greece
A small rocky island at the heart of the stunning Cyclades archipelago, Delos is one of the most important mythological and archaeological sites in Greece and a UNESCO World Heritage-listed Site believed to be the birthplace of the Greek God Apollo and his twin sister, Artemis. In the afternoon, you’ll cruise on to another beautiful Greek Island, Mykonos, a world-famous island whose allure lies in its blend of traditional Greek culture and cosmopolitan flair. Whitewashed houses adorned with vibrant blue doors edging the narrow, cobblestone streets of atmospheric Mykonos Town further add to the charm; so too, the island’s historic windmills and pretty beaches.

Bodrum, Turkey
Known for its stunning turquoise waters, white sandy beaches, and vibrant nightlife, Bodrum, set along Turkey’s southwest shores, attracts both local and international visitors year-round. This alluring town is also steeped in history and home to several historical sites, including the impressive Bodrum Castle, built by the Knights of St. John in the 15th century. The castle now houses the Museum of Underwater Archaeology, displaying artifacts from shipwrecks discovered in the Aegean Sea.

The lovely Greek island of Rhodes harbours a rich history, evident in fascinating landmarks. These include the ancient Acropolis of Lindos and Palace of the Grand Master, one of the few examples of Gothic architecture in Greece, ensconced in the Medieval City of Rhodes, a designated UNESCO World Heritage Site. Rhodes is also popular for its stunning natural scenery, extending to lovely sandy beaches lapped by crystal-clear waters, and lush green hills.

Santorini, Greece
One of the most world’s photogenic islands, Santorini presents a spectacular destination, iconic for its whitewashed buildings clustered across soaring cliffs that overlook the Aegean Sea. This hugely popular Greek island is also renowned for its volcanic landscapes and black sand beaches. The picturesque main town, Fira, dramatically rests on the edge of a caldera cliff, presenting jaw-dropping vistas, while Oia, one of Santorini’s charming traditional villages, is especially worth a visit for its quaint narrow streets, trademark blue-domed churches and legendary sunsets.

Chania, Greece

Chania is known for its picturesque Venetian harbour, narrow winding streets, and vibrant atmosphere. The town boasts a rich history that is evident in its eclectic blend of architectural styles, including Venetian, Ottoman, and Greek influences. Here, spend your day relaxing on one of the beautiful beaches and exploring historical sites, such as ancient ruins and museums steeped in historical legacies.

Hydra, Greece

The island’s main centre, also named Hydra, presents a charming and bustling port town, brimming with narrow cobblestone streets and traditional, whitewashed buildings adorned with bougainvillea-covered balconies. There are no cars or motor vehicles allowed on the island, making it a peaceful and low-key getaway from the usual hustle and bustle of urban life.
