Tour & Cruise overview
This European adventure starts in the historic seaside town of Opatija to embark on a 9-night escorted tour. Discover Split’s spectacularly preserved Roman palace, walk along Dubrovnik’s historic city walls and drink in the beauty of Krka National Park with its famous Skradinski Buk Falls. Explore Zagreb, flourishing Ljubljana and the beautiful resort city of Bled, before it’s time to travel by train from Venice to the port city of Civitavecchia for the next exciting leg of this journey – a stunning MSC cruise.
MSC is renowned for their magnificent Mediterranean cruises and with this voyage you’ll have the thrill of boarding one of their newer ships, MSC Grandiosa. Launched in 2019, this grand vessel is equipped with the latest environmental technology to increase energy efficiency and make cruising more environmentally sound. That doesn’t mean they’ve scrimped on creature comforts. Staterooms and public spaces have been reimagined to exceed expectations and the cutting-edge technology has flowed over to enhance onboard experiences.

Carrying out responsible social distancing while on the coach, train and cruise, as well as during city tours, visits to landmarks, museums and more, will be necessary to help ensure the safety of yourself, the other travellers in your group and the travel crew. This extends to the use of face masks on board and where necessary when visiting different destinations.
These guidelines are subject to change as the global situation evolves. The enforcement of certain measures (i.e. social distancing and mask-wearing) will vary in different regions. We will defer to local health authorities for best practices in their region. Check with your home country's policies on testing and post-trip self-isolation as well as the latest travel advisories.
