Ruhe und Gelassenheit: Dies sind die Schlüsselwörter für diese einzigartige Kreuzfahrt in Partnerschaft mit dem LE TIGRE in Anwesenheit von Élodie Garamond, Yogalehrerin und Gründerin des TIGRE, und der Heilpraktikerin Leila Nasri.
Entdecken Sie mit PONANT die Schönheit der Adria auf einer einzigartigen 8-tägigen Kreuzfahrt in Kroatien und Montenegro. Lassen Sie sich von den verborgenen Schätzen der Dalmatinischen Küste mitsamt ihrem türkisfarbenen Wasser an Bord der Le Lyrial verzaubern.
Ihre Reise beginnt in Venedig, sodass Sie die Gelegenheit haben die Stadt der Dogen mit ihren zahlreichen Kanälen, den Vaporetto-Booten und den berühmten Gondeln zu entdecken.
Split öffnet Ihnen seine Tore. Sie entdecken den historischen Stadtkern, der zum UNESCO-Welterbe zählt, und seine Schätze wie den Diokletianpalast oder die St. Domnius-Kathedrale.
Als nächstes nehmen Sie Kurs auf Korcula, eine der grünsten Inseln Kroatiens, die von Olivenhainen, Weinbergen und alten Gebäuden geprägt ist. Ein Ort voller Geschichte und Geburtsort des Entdeckers Marco Polo.
Danach fahren Sie zur UNESCO-Welterbe-Stadt Dubrovnik, die mit ihren Befestigungsmauern ihren Beinamen „Perle der Adria“ alle Ehre macht. Gut geschützt innerhalb der Wehrmauern, mit ihren typischen terrakottafarbenen Dächern, besticht die Stadt mit charmanten Palästen, Klöstern und Brunnen.
Genießen Sie unvergessliche Momente beim Stopp in der Bucht von Kotor in Montenegro. Bewundern Sie die mittelalterliche, zwischen Meer und zerklüfteten Felsen eingeschlossene Stadt und ihre historischen Denkmäler. Das ruhige und tiefe Wasser der Bucht und hier und dort schwebender Dunst schaffen eine irreale und märchenhafte Atmosphäre.
Nach einem Zwischenstopp auf der wunderschönen Insel Hvar führt Sie die letzte Etappe nach Rovinj, wo Sie den venezianischen Einfluss der Stadt entdecken. Stolz zeigt sie das Wahrzeichen des geflügelten Löwen auf dem Balbi-Bogen, den Sie beim Bummel durch die malerische Altstadt bewundern können.
Als krönender Abschluss führt die Reise Sie nach Venedig, der Serenissima, mit ihrer Lagune.

Élodie Garamond
The story begins in 2013 when Élodie Garamond, a Parisian communications expert, decided to turn her passion into a career.
With her family she opened the first Tigre Yoga Club (Chaillot) in 2013, offering over 60 disciplines of yoga, Pilates, barre, meditation, consultations, massages etc. The Tigres Rive Gauche, Neuilly, Deauville, Cassis, Marais, Lyon, Monte-Carlo and finally the Tigre Yoga Academy followed, the latter dedicated to training and furthering the knowledge of those in the business and open to all instructors.
An author passionate about her subject, in 2016 Élodie published Zen, un jeu d’enfant, then Chaos naissent nos Étoiles (from chaos are born stars) in 2019 by Éditions Flammarion. These were also years enriched by her meetings with others and experiences sharing yoga with the disadvantaged and sick people, a sharing which according to her “gives meaning to action”.
In 2020 and 2021, despite setbacks of closures due to the Covid-19 pandemic, she was fully engaged with the sector, representing yoga in the Union Sport & Cycle and Ministry of Sports. Publicly committed to defending yoga venues in times of crisis, she was elected President of the Union of Yoga Professionals in January 2021.
Regards the Tigre brand, closure of the clubs was inevitable but the Tigre energy continues thanks to the online Yogaplay platform in France which has become the go-to platform for lessons on demand for yoga and other disciplines. The Tigre Yogaplay platform welcomes many French and foreign instructors offering subscribers 650 video classes in 35 disciplines. The platform also has a podcast called Les Conversations du Tigre.
On the never-ending quest to share her way of living with others, Élodie has also produced an original encyclopaedia, Yoga un art de vivre in 2022, published by Flammarion, and now teaches yoga at many festivals and retreats.

Leila Nasri
Leila has always been passionate about understanding humans, living beings and health in all its dimensions. With a scientific background, and in a quest for human-friendly care techniques, she trained in India, in Auroville for 6 years. She returns every year to deepen techniques exploring the body and mind. Among these techniques are yoga, meditation, voice and sound healing, breath-work techniques, but also the different disciplines of massages and body work and energy healing. Leila is an explorer of the connection between body and emotions through the techniques of emotional integration, mind-body work and other techniques of inner growth.
Committed to the concept of autonomy, she turned to Holistic Naturopathy, a discipline in which she has been training future practitioners for more than 10 years. She supervises and trains healthcare and counselling professionals in Naturopathy and Breath- work techniques. This exciting approach makes it possible to connect all the human dimensions and to restore autonomy to everyone. A clear pedagogy and an always individualized support helps an inner movement toward a holistic balance.
Supporting many cases of burn-out during individual sessions, Leila is committed to tracing the source of each bodily, psychic, or emotional imbalance. Working with companies, she strives to create strategies to prevent burnout, while helping organizations create a fulfilling work environment through workshops, training, conferences and seminars. She also leads immersive seminars, sharing her passion for meditation, personal growth and the exploration of inner resources.

PONANT Aktivitäten
Retreat LE TIGRE
LE TIGRE is an original concept created by Elodie Garamond in 2013. A brand of Wellness synonymous with the art of living yoga, carrying the mission of accompanying a process of personal development through gentle or dynamic disciplines, care and consultations, in person or digitally.
As part of the partnership with LE TIGRE, a Yoga and Wellness retreat is proposed for sale during this cruise during which you can participate in activities provided by two professionals of this club.
LE TIGRE
Created by Élodie Garamond and her family in 2013, LE TIGRE is today a brand of Yoga Lifestyle products, a training academy and a VOD Yoga Play platform to take care of your emotional and physical health every day.
Throughout Eastern culture the tiger is the totem animal symbolising strength and self-confidence, and is also the guide through the jungle.
LE TIGRE is the expression of this double mission: to accompany each person, day after day, on the path of your physical and spiritual awakening in order to reconnect with vital energy.
To make the right diagnosis, to take care of each visitor, to listen to them, to understand through their first words or gestures how to bring them well-being, sometimes without them even knowing how to express a rational need or share a yogic culture. Guiding them through the urban jungle of all the soft psycho-corporal practices towards those that correspond to them, in their physical, emotional and energetic state of the moment, such is the mission of LE TIGRE.

Stolz und unvergänglich herrscht Venedig seit dem 6. Jh. über ihre Lagune. Man glaubt, sie zu kennen, bevor man überhaupt ihren Boden berührt hat. Dennoch erliegen Sie unweigerlich dem Charme der unzähligen Schätze der „Serenissima“: Markusplatz, Basilika, Dogenpalast, Canal Grande und die Gondeln. Sie möchten sicherlich auch ein weniger bekanntes Venedig entdecken, sich in dem Gewirr aus Gässchen und Kanälen verlieren, die Plätze besichtigen und hinter die Türen der Kirchen schauen. Das außergewöhnliche Kulturerbe sollte Sie aber nicht vergessen lassen, Ihre Gaumen rund um ein Glas Spritz und einige Tramezzini zu verwöhnen.

Der ganze Reiz dieser Hafenstadt beruht auf deren Lage: Sie befindet sich auf einem Felsvorsprung an der Nordostküste der Insel Korcula. Die Befestigungen des mittelalterlichen Viertels eröffnen Ihnen schöne Ausblicke auf die Halbinsel Pelješac. Um zu diesen zu gelangen, können Sie die monumentale Treppe des Revelin-Turms benutzen.Andere Strecke: die Stufen unter Schatten spendenden Palmen des Meerestors. Irgendwo zwischen den Gassen taucht der Glockenturm der St.-Markus-Kathedrale auf. Dieses Emblem der Stadt ermöglicht Ihnen, mühelos das ganz nah gelegene Haus auszumachen, wo Marco Polo geboren sein soll. Die Insel wartet auch mit namhaften Weinen auf wie rotem Plavac oder weißem Posip.

Dubrovnik, emblematische Stadt der dalmatinischen Küste, erstreckt sich auf einem uneinnehmbaren Felsvorsprung. In ihrer Altstadt, die zum UNESCO-Weltkulturerbe erklärt wurde, steht die Geschichte im Mittelpunkt. Vielleicht sind Sie von den Abmessungen der Hauptpromenade, derPlaca, erstaunt. Ihre Breite kommt daher, dass sie eine ehemalige Lagune bedeckt. Die Gebäude, die sie säumen, sind aus elegantem Travertin. Am Pile-Tor empfängt Sie die Statue des Schutzpatrons von Dubrovnik, und Sie können das Küstengebiet während eines Spaziergangs auf den Befestigungsanlagen bewundern. Was befindet sich in der an die Mauer angrenzenden Festung des heiligen Johannes? Ein maritimes Museum und ein Aquarium mit seltenen Fischarten der Adria.

Wie ein Heiligenschein steigt ein irrealer Dunst aus dem unbeweglichen Wasser und umgibt die spärlich gesäten kleinen Inseln mit einer märchenhaften Atmosphäre. An Bord Ihres Schiffes fahren Sie durch ruhige, klare Gewässer, zwischen schwindelerregenden Felsen und geschützten, in der Sommersonne schlafenden Buchten, in denen hin und wieder ein kleines Dorf von der Geschichte seiner Gebäude erzählt.

After the short walk (15 minutes) from the port to the Old Town you will start with the walking portion of the tour.
The Old Town of Split is built on and around the spectacular Roman Palace erected by the Roman Emperor Diocletian (born in Salona - todays Solin) in the 4th century. The walking tour starts with a visit of the Palace on the ground gallery that is still very well preserved. It offers a good view at how the life in the Palace was organised.
You will also visit the very interesting Cathedral of St. Duje (patron saint of the city). According to medieval sources, Archbishop John of Ravenna purified in 650 the mausoleum of Diocletian by getting rid of its idols and founded the Cathedral whose bell tower is now the symbol of Split.
The Cathedral is built on the remains of an ancient shrine and is supposed to be the oldest in the world. A visit will also be made to the charming Temple of Jupiter, turned into the baptistery by Christians. Observe the front panel or the ceiling with grotesque faces. Cross the Palace of the southern gate to the North door and discover the ramparts and the immense "statue of Gregory of Nin" by the Croatian sculptor Ivan Mestrovic.
After the walking tour you will head back to the ship. If you wish to spend some time on your own, you can visit the colourful open market (largest on the coast) or spend some time in the town before returning to the ship.
Gesamtpreis inkl. Steuern- und Gebühren : € 30
From the pier, board your coach and enjoy a 15-minute drive toward Sustipan Park, a verdant park atop a seaside cliff. The park got its name after a Middle Ages monastery to St. Stephen, built under the pine trees and used as a final resting place of Croatian Kings. Nowadays, Sustipan has been turned into a beautiful park; a genuine little green oasis in the immediate vicinity of Marjan, where the reefs help form a breathtaking view over the deep sea and the islands in front of Split.
Take a deep breath and let yourself be guided by Tina Ticinovic, your yoga instructor for the day. As a verified Hatha yoga instructor and Tibetan reiki therapist, she will accompany you through this journey to your inner peace. Being a beginner or simply looking to refresh the fundamentals, you will be able to develop a practice of conscious and mindful movements in this unique surrounding, where the blue sky meets the green pine trees and the white dalmatian stone.
At the end of your yoga class, you will enjoy freshly made smoothies and a short stroll inside the park before heading back to the ship.
Gesamtpreis inkl. Steuern- und Gebühren : € 140
From the pier, board your coach for a 1-hour scenic drive along the Adriatic Road toward the town of Ston.
Ston was built according to the plans approved by the Dubrovnik government in 1335 and amended in 1370 and is considered one of the best planned and best structured cities in Europe. The walls of Ston were a massive architecture and construction feat. Originally 7,000 metre long (22,965 ft.), they consist of several parts; the Ston city walls, the Mali Ston city walls and the Big wall with its three forts. Its forts and towers are strengthened by 10 round and 31 square flanking towers, as well as 6 semicircular bastions. It took almost four centuries to finish these complex defence walls, as the builders had to adapt to the rough terrain and advancements in warfare technology. The walls were last used for defence in the 19th century, and today they are a priceless monument of immense architectural and cultural value.
Once arriving at Ston’s walls, you will start your hiking passing distance of almost 900 meters over demanding terrain with more than 150 steps before joining your coach for a ride to Mali Ston, the 'oysters capital' of Croatia.
Upon arrival in Mali Ston, you will board a local boat which will take you to oyster and mussel beds. Your host will welcome you on board and introduce you with oyster & mussel farming in this area. You will have the opportunity to learn about the oyster & mussel production as well as to taste freshly prepared oysters & mussels including mussel buzara (mussels cooked with wine, garlic and olive oil).
Finally, re-board your coach for a 1-hour return ride back to Dubrovnik along the old historical road passing through the old villages of Dubrovacko Primorje.
Gesamtpreis inkl. Steuern- und Gebühren : € 80
From the pier, meet your guide and start your stroll through the streets of this medieval town.
Along the way you will visit, among other places, the Franciscan Monastery whose cloister ranks among the most inspiring sites of the city. The Monastery houses also the oldest still working pharmacy in Europe and the third oldest pharmacy in the world founded in 1317. It is still active and still offers creams manufactured according to ancestral recipes.
After visiting the monastery, you will go to the Assumption Cathedral built in the 18th century on the ruins of a church dating from the 12th century destroyed by an earthquake in 1667. This one might surprise you by its simplicity and the clarity of its interior, but its treasure is among the richest in Europe, with a unique collection of relics in gold and silver.
You will continue with the Dominican Monastery, soberer than the previous one, and its museum with a fine collection of Renaissance paintings, including the triptych of N. Bozidarevic representing Dubrovnik before the earthquake or the table of Titian representing Sainte Madeleine and Saint Blaise.
Other fine buildings will be viewed from the outside, like the Sponza Palace notable for its columned courtyard with elaborate stone carvings, Church of Saint Blaise, Onofriou's Fountain, etc.
Then, you will go to the Dubrovnik cable car. A short ride will take you up to the top of Srd hill from where you can admire Dubrovnik Old town, Elaphite Islands and Lokrum.
Finally, you will get back to your ship.
Gesamtpreis inkl. Steuern- und Gebühren : € 75
During this tour, you will be immersed in the lively and nature-oriented daily life of the Miloslavic family. They open their doors and their hearts to share their way of life and their love for their land, and what it has to offer, with you.
The Miloslavic family is now composed of six persons. Pero and Marija, the parents, and their 4 daughters Nevia, Mara, Pere and Nika. Pero’s father was among the first in the civil parish to have the OPG label, which stands for “Obiteljsko poljoprivredno gospodarstvo” (literally translates to a family farm, and more specifically an agricultural business made up of members of the same family), and Pero inherited it. This tradition has continued, and our hosts have passed it on to their 4 daughters. Today, you will be part of the family.
Away from the habitual kitchens and regular restaurants, discover the local cuisine full of homemade olive oil, wines, seasonal vegetables, homemade prosciutto and pancetta.
With the help of the Miloslavic family, you will prepare savoury meals, full of heritage and tastes of the Dubrovnik region. In this unique cooking class, you will learn how to appreciate each of the ingredients to their fullest, how to treat them, and how to savour their essence. The menu depends as much on the availability of ingredients. You will have the opportunity to get know and appreciate all the flavours of this cuisine using all your senses, in the comfortable setting of the rural family home.
Their farming philosophy meets the needs of existing and future generations, while also ensuring profitability, environmental health, and social and economic equity.
At the end of your experience, you will get acquainted with the Dubrovnik region with the help of locals, who are not only passionate about what they do for living, but also just as passionate about the land where they live.
Finally, it will be time to head back to your ship.
Gesamtpreis inkl. Steuern- und Gebühren : € 220
From the pier, you will walk 10 minutes to join the kayak centre.
Your tour will allow you to combine shore-side and offshore visits. You will have the chance to paddle and swim across the exotic coastal scenery of the small islands.
After receiving your safety instructions, board your kayak and start your adventure towards hidden coves and secluded pebble beaches.
Then, you will head to a beach for some time to relax or go for a refreshing swim while a local snack and a refreshment will be served.
Finally, you will head back to your ship.
Gesamtpreis inkl. Steuern- und Gebühren : € 65
From the pier, board your coach and start your 45-minute scenic drive to Porec.
Once arriving, you will start your walking tour of the old town.
You will begin with the Episcopal Complex of the Euphrasian Basilica in the historic centre of Porec. The group of religious monuments in Porec, where Christianity was established as early as the 4th century, constitutes the most complete surviving complex of its type. The basilica, atrium, baptistery and Episcopal palace are outstanding examples of religious architecture, while the basilica itself combines classical and Byzantine elements.
This complex was enrolled in the UNESCO World Heritage list in 1997.
After the visit to the Episcopal Complex, you will have some free time in Porec before rejoining your coach for the drive back to Rovinj.
Gesamtpreis inkl. Steuern- und Gebühren : € 45
Let yourself be guided by a tasty mix of history, sumptuous landscapes, and gourmet delights. Whether you are a truffle connoisseur or a novice, this experience will leave you with a unique memory.
From the pier, you will board your coach and start your 1-hour commented drive to Motovun. This medieval, hilltop town is a captivating symbol of the Istrian interior. Back then, Motovun forest was quite bigger than it is today, and both white and black truffles found in that area were among the best quality truffles to be found in Istria. You will enjoy a guided walk and some free time to explore the narrow streets of this singular village.
After another short, 15-minute bus drive, you will reach the Istria peninsula hinterland and the village of Paladini, where you will meet with the Karlic family: a grandfather, a mother, grandchildren, and their dogs at their farm. From Paladini, near Buzet, the Karlic family’s truffle business was established in 1966 by Mr Ivan Rašpolic.
Your hosts will first take you on a truffle hunt in their own woods, where they grow and harvest black truffles. All the truffles are hidden underground and can’t be found by your eye alone. However, the trained dogs are adept at recognizing their strong smell.
Back at the farm, they will introduce you to the history of truffles in Istra. You will taste delicious products made of truffles, all prepared by the family, including Istrian cheese with truffles, sausages with truffles, truffle paté, honey with truffles, olive oil with truffles. The highlight of your experience will be the preparation of the famous Istrian “fritaja” (scrambled eggs with truffles), where you will be invited to join in and cook the fritaja.
After this delightful moment, it will be time to re-board your coach and head back to your ship in Rovinj.

Enhance your cruise and extend your trip with a carefully designed programme.
Day 1 -Venice
Meet at Venice Airport in the Arrival hall. Look for PONANT sign. You will be greeted by our local representative off the flight selected by PONANT or any other flight (provided that you have previously communicated your flight schedule to your travel agent).
You will be transferred to the hotel Splendid Venice 4*.
Dinner at leisure.
Overnight at the hotel.
Day 2 - Venice
After breakfast, you will leave your hotel by boat to explore some of the hidden gardens of the city, learn their history and find out what prompted the locals to create gardens in such a challenging environment. Gardens in Venice come as a surprise: although many of the palaces have their own small, private garden, when wandering around it is easy to get the impression that Venice is a city of stone.
The first stop is Nani Bernardo Palace, opened especially for a private visit. Designed by the architect Vittoria and commissioned the Bernardo family, the palace was built in the mid-16th century with a beautiful Italian garden. On the other side of the Grand Canal, you will then enjoy a private visit of Palazzo Malipiero.
Initially built in a Byzantine style, it has undergone some modifications over the centuries. The adjacent Italian-style garden with a view of the Grand Canal, a rarity in Venice, makes it even more distinctive.
Like many others, this garden was created in the late 18th century, when the large palace gardens situated on the outskirts of the city disappeared because of residential and industrial development.
You will then be transferred by boat to Sant’Erasmo. While this is the largest island in the Venetian lagoon, it is only sparsely populated. For years this has been Venice’s countryside, the agricultural zone which produces the fruit and vegetables consumed by the city-dwellers. Its artichokes are particularly renowned. You will take a walk through the vineyards of the Cantina Orto di Venezia estate, before tasting three vintages of locally produced Orto, a white wine full of this special island’s unique character. This wine is made from ancient Italian grape varieties; the vines are cultivated using traditional and eco-friendly methods. Driven by their passion and tenacity, the Thoulouze family have managed to recreate the ancestral methods of drainage using the natural tides of the lagoon.
Orto is a white wine with a high mineral content and a flavour that reflects its terroir. It can be drunk on any occasion but goes especially well with the products of the Venetian lagoon: fish, artichokes, and asparagus. It was recently named the best Italian Malvasia vintage.
After the visit, you will take a boat ride to Mazzorbo, a rural island connected to Burano by a wooden pedestrian bridge. Lunch will be served at a local restaurant.
In the afternoon, you will return to Venice where you will learn the art of mask making.
Venetian masks have been worn in Venice since ancient times. They have a long history of protecting their wearer’s identity during promiscuous or decadent activities, such as gambling in one of the many casinos that dotted the city. The art of mask making is one of Venice’s oldest handicrafts. Guided by the desire to keep this traditional art form alive, a famous Venetian mask-making workshop will welcome you for a course in mask decoration including theory and practice. Once you have selected the type of mask you wish to decorate, you will choose among the different decorating techniques available and combine them to make your own one-of-a-kind Venetian mask.
The experts on hand will explain the ancient technique of making a Venetian papier-mâché mask, providing important historical information on the use of masks in Venice over past centuries, together with an explanation of the most significant models. At the end of the course, you will get to keep the mask you decorated, as a memento of this unforgettable experience.
You will return to your hotel by boat, to enjoy the rest of the day and evening at your leisure.

After the short walk (15 minutes) from the port to the Old Town you will start with the walking portion of the tour.
The Old Town of Split is built on and around the spectacular Roman Palace erected by the Roman Emperor Diocletian (born in Salona - todays Solin) in the 4th century. The walking tour starts with a visit of the Palace on the ground gallery that is still very well preserved. It offers a good view at how the life in the Palace was organised.
You will also visit the very interesting Cathedral of St. Duje (patron saint of the city). According to medieval sources, Archbishop John of Ravenna purified in 650 the mausoleum of Diocletian by getting rid of its idols and founded the Cathedral whose bell tower is now the symbol of Split.
The Cathedral is built on the remains of an ancient shrine and is supposed to be the oldest in the world. A visit will also be made to the charming Temple of Jupiter, turned into the baptistery by Christians. Observe the front panel or the ceiling with grotesque faces. Cross the Palace of the southern gate to the North door and discover the ramparts and the immense "statue of Gregory of Nin" by the Croatian sculptor Ivan Mestrovic.
After the walking tour you will head back to the ship. If you wish to spend some time on your own, you can visit the colourful open market (largest on the coast) or spend some time in the town before returning to the ship.

From the pier, board your coach and enjoy a 15-minute drive toward Sustipan Park, a verdant park atop a seaside cliff. The park got its name after a Middle Ages monastery to St. Stephen, built under the pine trees and used as a final resting place of Croatian Kings. Nowadays, Sustipan has been turned into a beautiful park; a genuine little green oasis in the immediate vicinity of Marjan, where the reefs help form a breathtaking view over the deep sea and the islands in front of Split.
Take a deep breath and let yourself be guided by Tina Ticinovic, your yoga instructor for the day. As a verified Hatha yoga instructor and Tibetan reiki therapist, she will accompany you through this journey to your inner peace.

At the end of your yoga class, you will enjoy freshly made smoothies and a short stroll inside the park before heading back to the ship.

From the pier, board your coach for a 1-hour scenic drive along the Adriatic Road toward the town of Ston.
Ston was built according to the plans approved by the Dubrovnik government in 1335 and amended in 1370 and is considered one of the best planned and best structured cities in Europe. The walls of Ston were a massive architecture and construction feat. Originally 7,000 metre long (22,965 ft.), they consist of several parts; the Ston city walls, the Mali Ston city walls and the Big wall with its three forts. Its forts and towers are strengthened by 10 round and 31 square flanking towers, as well as 6 semicircular bastions. It took almost four centuries to finish these complex defence walls, as the builders had to adapt to the rough terrain and advancements in warfare technology. The walls were last used for defence in the 19th century, and today they are a priceless monument of immense architectural and cultural value.
Once arriving at Ston’s walls, you will start your hiking passing distance of almost 900 meters over demanding terrain with more than 150 steps before joining your coach for a ride to Mali Ston, the 'oysters capital' of Croatia.
Upon arrival in Mali Ston, you will board a local boat which will take you to oyster and mussel beds. Your host will welcome you on board and introduce you with oyster & mussel farming in this area. You will have the opportunity to learn about the oyster & mussel production as well as to taste freshly prepared oysters & mussels including mussel buzara (mussels cooked with wine, garlic and olive oil).
Finally, re-board your coach for a 1-hour return ride back to Dubrovnik along the old historical road passing through the old villages of Dubrovacko Primorje.

Along the way you will visit, among other places, the Franciscan Monastery whose cloister ranks among the most inspiring sites of the city. The Monastery houses also the oldest still working pharmacy in Europe and the third oldest pharmacy in the world founded in 1317. It is still active and still offers creams manufactured according to ancestral recipes.
After visiting the monastery, you will go to the Assumption Cathedral built in the 18th century on the ruins of a church dating from the 12th century destroyed by an earthquake in 1667. This one might surprise you by its simplicity and the clarity of its interior, but its treasure is among the richest in Europe, with a unique collection of relics in gold and silver.
You will continue with the Dominican Monastery, soberer than the previous one, and its museum with a fine collection of Renaissance paintings, including the triptych of N. Bozidarevic representing Dubrovnik before the earthquake or the table of Titian representing Sainte Madeleine and Saint Blaise.
Other fine buildings will be viewed from the outside, like the Sponza Palace notable for its columned courtyard with elaborate stone carvings, Church of Saint Blaise, Onofriou's Fountain, etc.
Then, you will go to the Dubrovnik cable car. A short ride will take you up to the top of Srd hill from where you can admire Dubrovnik Old town, Elaphite Islands and Lokrum.

During this tour, you will be immersed in the lively and nature-oriented daily life of the Miloslavic family. They open their doors and their hearts to share their way of life and their love for their land, and what it has to offer, with you.
The Miloslavic family is now composed of six persons. Pero and Marija, the parents, and their 4 daughters Nevia, Mara, Pere and Nika. Pero’s father was among the first in the civil parish to have the OPG label, which stands for “Obiteljsko poljoprivredno gospodarstvo” (literally translates to a family farm, and more specifically an agricultural business made up of members of the same family), and Pero inherited it. This tradition has continued, and our hosts have passed it on to their 4 daughters. Today, you will be part of the family.
Away from the habitual kitchens and regular restaurants, discover the local cuisine full of homemade olive oil, wines, seasonal vegetables, homemade prosciutto and pancetta.
With the help of the Miloslavic family, you will prepare savoury meals, full of heritage and tastes of the Dubrovnik region. In this unique cooking class, you will learn how to appreciate each of the ingredients to their fullest, how to treat them, and how to savour their essence. The menu depends as much on the availability of ingredients. You will have the opportunity to get know and appreciate all the flavours of this cuisine using all your senses, in the comfortable setting of the rural family home.
Their farming philosophy meets the needs of existing and future generations, while also ensuring profitability, environmental health, and social and economic equity.
At the end of your experience, you will get acquainted with the Dubrovnik region with the help of locals, who are not only passionate about what they do for living, but also just as passionate about the land where they live.

Let yourself be guided by a tasty mix of history, sumptuous landscapes, and gourmet delights. Whether you are a truffle connoisseur or a novice, this experience will leave you with a unique memory.
From the pier, you will board your coach and start your 1-hour commented drive to Motovun. This medieval, hilltop town is a captivating symbol of the Istrian interior. Back then, Motovun forest was quite bigger than it is today, and both white and black truffles found in that area were among the best quality truffles to be found in Istria. You will enjoy a guided walk and some free time to explore the narrow streets of this singular village.
After another short, 15-minute bus drive, you will reach the Istria peninsula hinterland and the village of Paladini, where you will meet with the Karlic family: a grandfather, a mother, grandchildren, and their dogs at their farm. From Paladini, near Buzet, the Karlic family’s truffle business was established in 1966 by Mr Ivan Rašpolic.
Your hosts will first take you on a truffle hunt in their own woods, where they grow and harvest black truffles. All the truffles are hidden underground and can’t be found by your eye alone. However, the trained dogs are adept at recognizing their strong smell.
Back at the farm, they will introduce you to the history of truffles in Istra. You will taste delicious products made of truffles, all prepared by the family, including Istrian cheese with truffles, sausages with truffles, truffle paté, honey with truffles, olive oil with truffles. The highlight of your experience will be the preparation of the famous Istrian “fritaja” (scrambled eggs with truffles), where you will be invited to join in and cook the fritaja.
After this delightful moment, it will be time to re-board your coach and head back to your ship in Rovinj.
