Discover Croatia's Magnificent Adriatic Coast on Our Exclusive Small Ship Charter

Experience the beauty of Croatia on an unforgettable 15-day Croatia small ship cruise, sailing from elegant Opatija in the north to magnificent Dubrovnik in the south. Our specially designed itinerary combines the best of Croatia's spectacular islands, historic coastal towns, secluded swimming coves, and authentic cultural experiences.

Step aboard our 18-cabin deluxe cruise ship, reserved exclusively for our small group of travelers, and enjoy the perfect combination of comfort, relaxation, fascinating sightseeing, and adventure. Unlike large cruise ships carrying thousands of passengers, our intimate vessel can visit charming island harbors and beautiful destinations that larger ships simply cannot reach.

Let our experienced captain and friendly crew take care of the details as we island-hop along Croatia's breathtaking Adriatic and Dalmatian coastline. Discover some of our favorite Croatian ports of call, including Krk, Rab, Zadar, Šibenik, Trogir, Hvar, Korčula, Mljet, and Dubrovnik.

Along the way, enjoy refreshing swim stops in secluded coves, delicious meals freshly prepared by our onboard chef, spectacular coastal scenery, and plenty of opportunities to relax on deck. Best of all, unpack just once while your floating hotel carries you from one extraordinary destination to the next.

Our thoughtfully planned itinerary features private guided tours and memorable excursions with knowledgeable local experts, balanced with ample free time to explore independently. Wander through medieval villages, discover UNESCO World Heritage Sites, sample excellent Croatian wines, visit a traditional oyster farm, and enjoy authentic local restaurants without being tied to a rigid group dining schedule.

Our Croatia small ship cruises are especially popular with travelers age 50+, including solo travelers, couples, and friends traveling together. You'll enjoy the friendly atmosphere, personal attention, and camaraderie that have made Small Group Tours by The Traveling Professor a favorite among discerning travelers since 2009.

We don't want to be the biggest cruise company. We want to provide the best possible experience for your vacation time and money.
