Mit Olivenbäumen bepflanzte Täler, Nationalparks von atemberaubender Schönheit, kopfsteingepflasterte Altstädte, die an eine bewegte Geschichte erinnern: Entdecken Sie das Mittelmeer auf einer 8-tägigen Kreuzfahrtroute.
Während der Reise profitieren Sie von einem im Reisepreis inbegriffenen Landausflug pro Person und pro Anlaufhafen, auszuwählen aus einem von PONANT zusammengestellten Angebot. Nehmen Sie auf dieser Kreuzfahrt von Rovinj aus an einer Trüffelsuche mit anschließender Verkostung teil, entdecken Sie Hvar in einem VW-Käfer oder besuchen Sie eineMoreška-Show im Freilichttheater von Korcula. Die Vielfalt der angebotenen Erlebnisse verspricht ebenso intensive wie abwechslungsreiche Momente. (Das gesamte Angebot finden Sie unter dem Reiter "Route".)
Venedig, die Serenissima, hat an den Küsten der Adria Spuren ihrer mehrere Jahrhunderte langen Herrschaft hinterlassen. Auf dem Balbi-Bogen in Rovinj und den Toren der Städte Zadar und Korcula wacht der geflügelte Löwe, das Symbol der Dogenstadt, auch heute noch über die Passanten. In Split kann man den Diokletianpalast und die Kathedrale St. Domnius aus der Antike besichtigen, auf der Insel Hvar die Hafenortschaft Stari Grad, die von den Griechen gegründet wurde und als älteste Stadt des Landes gilt.
In der Bucht von Kotor vereint sich die Schönheit einer spektakulären Natur mit den Juwelen der Geschichte der Region. Die mittelalterliche Stadt enthüllt sich in den Klippen, die den vorspringenden Meeresarm überragen und einen labyrinthähnlichen Schifffahrtsweg schaffen.
Ihre Reise durch die Zeit endet in der Perle der Adria, der ehemaligen Seerepublik Dubrovnik, die unter dem Namen Ragusa bekannt war. Letztere offenbart Ihnen ein weiteres neues Gesicht unter den zahlreichen Facetten Dalmatiens. „Freiheit kann man nicht kaufen, auch nicht für alles Gold der Welt“, so lautet die Devise Dubrovniks.

PONANT Aktivitäten
Kid Explorers
PONANT has joined forces with the Maud Fontenoy Foundation to run its Kid Explorers children’s club.
As part of its commitment to safeguarding the oceans, during your cruise PONANT offers an activity programme for children aged 4 to 13 years on all our ships, and from 6 to 13 years on board Le Commandant Charcot to familiarise them with issues related to protecting our oceans. We have special educational kits, activity sheets and themed videos all provided by the Foundation.
Every day a team of activity leaders organises creative activities (crafts, painting, etc.), fun educational workshops, board games, introduction to meditation sessions and more, as well as activities specific to the cruise itinerary and number of participants. There are also activities ashore to prolong the experience for your Kid Explorers such as walks and treasure hunts .
The activity programme is available every day. (The precise times will be provided by animators). To best meet your needs, the schedule is adapted to fit in with your cruise programme. For more information, contact the team organising the activities.
Activity schedules are posted daily in the logbook.
Every child receives a welcome kit with gifts enclosed.
-------------------------------
Activities will depend on the number and age of the children who register and the weather conditions.
Parents or guardians must read the ‘General information on the PONANT Kid Explorers Club’ and sign a form authorising the Kid Explorers Club to look after their child on board and for outings ashore.
Maud Fontenoy Foundation
Since 2008, the Maud Fontenoy Foundation has been operating in France and internationally to protect our oceans. We organise educational activities focused on the environment for the younger generation and general public, with support from scientific partners and the French Ministry of National Education. The latter has made us responsible for its Sea Education programme and relaunch of the Sea Classes initiative. Our aim is both ecological and social: to protect the ocean and save people. We start from a strong principle that protecting the environment, particularly the ocean, is a humanitarian issue that affects all mankind, without exception. For us, the oceans are a powerful force, a potential for the future. Every year, 700,000 children benefit from our programmes.

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.

Von der Spitze aus genießen Sie eine Panoramaaussicht auf das historische Viertel. Um in dessen malerische Atmosphäre einzutauchen, bummeln Sie entlang der Gassen in Ocker- und Sepiafarben, die Sie zu belebten Plätzen mit von Stoffvordächern vor der Sonne geschützten Terrassen führen.

Abfahrt 10.08.2025 am späten Nachmittag
Die ehemalige Festungsstadt Zadar befindet sich auf einer Halbinsel in Norddalmatien. Sie existiert seit dem Altertum, wie die Ruinen des römischen Forums erkennen lassen. Die neben diesen Überresten vergangener Zeiten stehende Kirche Sankt Donatus weist eine byzantinische Architektur auf, während der Kampanile der Kathedrale der Heiligen Anastasia italienisch inspiriert ist. Ihre Spaziergänge durch die Altstadt werden immer wieder zu Begegnungen mit der Geschichte. Beim Erreichen der Strandpromenade kommen Sie wieder in der Gegenwart an, denn das Ufer wird von zwei zeitgenössischen Kreationen belebt. Sie können der von der Brandung zum Klingen gebrachten Meeresorgel zuhören und haben die Gelegenheit, das Sonnendenkmal mit seinen Sonnenlichtspielen zu bewundern.

Die historische Stadt war auf einer felsigen Halbinsel gebaut und durch eine mobile Brücke mit dem Festland verbunden. Daher erhielt sie im 16. Jahrhundert ihren Namen: Primosti bedeutet auf Kroatisch "überbrücken". Die Kirche Saint-Juraj wacht als höchster Punkt der Stadt über die zauberhafte Bucht mit glasklarem Wasser, und im Norden der Halbinsel ist der hübsche Strand Raduca zwischen Azurblau und Pinienwald zu entdecken.

Abfahrt 14.08.2025 am Nachmittag

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.

Porec and its Basilica
Enjoy a guided tour of the old town of Porec to discover the episcopal complex of the Euphrasian Basilica. An experience combining history, architecture and breathtaking views.
Nestling at the heart of Porec town centre, the basilica has grouped together a number of Christian places of worship since the 4th century; it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This architectural marvel blends Romanesque and Byzantine styles. The sparkle of the mosaics in the choir constitutes a real splendour.
Climbing to the summit, you will be rewarded by a 360-degree panoramic view over the charming town of Porec.
After the visit, you will have some free time to discover the town, before heading to Rovinj.
- This excursion involves walking around 2.5 kilometres (1.6 miles) on uneven ground, with some steps. We recommend you wear comfortable walking shoes and protect yourself from the sun. Appropriate dress is necessary to enter religious sites (shoulders and knees must be covered).
Inbegriffen
Je nach Verfügbarkeit Preis pro Person.Rovinj & its cathedral
From the pier, follow your guide and start your walking tour of the historical centre of Rovinj. The historical centre is almost entirely built on a rocky island and connected to the mainland since the 13th century. During your tour, you will discover the Venetian influence and its rich cultural legacy, omnipresent in the architecture of the tall houses with warm red tiled roofs and the narrow streets intersected by covered passageways and archways, decorated with ancient frescoes.
The highlight of your visit will most certainly be the Church of Saint Euphemia, a prestigious building dating from the 8th century. Its 63-metre high bell tower rises out of the city centre, and is the most remarked symbol in the Istria region.
Built on the ancient ruins of a Roman church, it was altered in the 17th century in the Baroque style, and houses the relics of Saint Euphemia. They were brought from Constantinople in the 9th century for their safekeeping in a marble sarcophagus. There is also a mural depicting the life and the martyrdom of the saint. Every year on 16 September, the faithful gather around her tomb.
The church contains several treasures and works of art like Gothic statues from the 15th century and paintings from the 16th and the 17th centuries (The Last Supper and Christ in the Gethsemane).
At the end of your visit, you will enjoy a local snack before returning to your ship.
-
This excursion involves approximately 1.5 hour of walking on cobblestone streets with some steps. We recommend you to wear comfortable walking shoes and protect yourself from the sun. Appropriate dress is recommended to enter religious sites (shoulders and knees must be covered).
Inbegriffen
Je nach Verfügbarkeit Preis pro Person.Split & the Diocletian Palace
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.

The order of sites visits may vary.
Inbegriffen
Je nach Verfügbarkeit Preis pro Person.Hvar & its religious heritage
This small and charming town is located around a natural port and it is undoubtedly one of the most famous seaside resorts of Dalmatian coast.
A lot of splendid monuments as the Cathedral, the ancient Arsenal and different palaces are bearing witness to a rich history of Gothic and Renaissance arts.
From the pier, follow your guide through narrow tiny streets to the 15th century Franciscan Monastery. The cloister with its rounded arches and a well in the middle dominates the Renaissance monastery. The former spacious refectory and a small, adjacent room have been turned into the monastery museum. Along with a collection of old books and coins, the famous "Last Supper", a work belonging to the Venetian School of Palma the Younger from the end of the 16th century, has the strongest claims on the attention of the numerous visitors.
After crossing the main square, you will pass by the Cathedral of Saint Stephan (outside visit). It was built in stages during the 16th and 17th centuries, while the interior was not wholly completed until the 18th century. From outside, it has the characteristics of the Renaissance style and inside the baroque style.
Then, you will visit the Benedictine Monastery, which holds a rich collection of lace made of agave leaves.
After this walking tour you may follow your guide back to the pier or stay in town for some time at leisure.
-
This excursion involves 2 hours of walking, covering approximately 1 mile (1.5 km) over cobblestone streets and some steps. We recommend you wear comfortable walking shoes and protect yourself from the sun. Appropriate dress is recommended to enter religious sites (shoulders and knees must be covered).
Inbegriffen
Je nach Verfügbarkeit Preis pro Person.The history of Korcula
Perched on a peninsula overlooking the crystal-clear waters of the Adriatic, Korcula is one of the Mediterranean’s best-preserved cities and offers those who explore its streets a veritable dive into history.
Built to a "fishbone” plan in the 13th century, the Old Town of Korcula seems to want to touch the sky. The cobbled streets, small squares and narrow dwellings all rise towards the azure blue, since they can’t push back the fortifications that surround the city. Amidst this picture-postcard decor sit several emblematic sites that you will have the chance to visit.
Your first visit will be the Bishop’s Palace and its Icon Museum. The museum contains a unique collection of Byzantine Icons dating from the 13th to the 15th century, brought back by sailors, as well as ceremonial pieces from the 17th and 18th centuries.
You will then explore the Cathedral of St Mark. Constructed in the 15th century and erected in the heart of the Old Town - on the former site of a 13th-century church – by local masters, in a style blending Gothic and Renaissance, it is undoubtedly Korcula’s most emblematic moment and, above all, an ode to Croatian expertise in Dalmatian stonework.
Opposite the cathedral, you will discover Gabrielis Palace and its Town Museum. With its collections of archaeological, ethnographic and artistic objects, you will be able to go back in time and discover the various influences on the city over the centuries.
Then admire the huge staircase that leads to Tower Revelin, guardian of the city erected in the 15th century, as well as its large gate, decorated with a sculpture of the lion of St Mark.
· This excursion involves approximately 1.6 km (1 mile) of walking through narrow streets, with some steps. We recommend you wear comfortable walking shoes and protect yourself from the sun. The order of the visits may be reversed.

This museum town who became city of kings is famous for its monastery and its museum that you will visit, before enjoying a local lunch in a typical restaurant, located in the area.
After your lunch, you will drive to Budva and its old town. Along the way, you will have the opportunity to see most beautiful coasts and their numerous beaches. Budva is rich in historic monuments and churches and represents a treasure chest of culture heritage.
Once arriving, you will start your guided walking visit of the town before enjoying some free time.

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.
Day 3 - Venice
Breakfast at your hotel, morning at leisure and check-out.
You will then visit a tavern to enjoy a cooking lesson and learn the secrets of Venetian cuisine. With the chef’s guidance and supervision, you will create typical local dishes as you learn more about the culture and cuisine of the region. At the end of the lesson, you will eat what you prepared and toast to this memorable experience.
You will then be transferred by boat to the pier of Venice to embark on board your ship.

From the pier, follow your guide and start your walking tour of the historical centre of Rovinj. The historical centre is almost entirely built on a rocky island and connected to the mainland since the 13th century. During your tour, you will discover the Venetian influence and its rich cultural legacy, omnipresent in the architecture of the tall houses with warm red tiled roofs and the narrow streets intersected by covered passageways and archways, decorated with ancient frescoes.
The highlight of your visit will most certainly be the Church of Saint Euphemia, a prestigious building dating from the 8th century. Its 63-metre high bell tower rises out of the city centre, and is the most remarked symbol in the Istria region.
Built on the ancient ruins of a Roman church, it was altered in the 17th century in the Baroque style, and houses the relics of Saint Euphemia. They were brought from Constantinople in the 9th century for their safekeeping in a marble sarcophagus. There is also a mural depicting the life and the martyrdom of the saint. Every year on 16 September, the faithful gather around her tomb.
The church contains several treasures and works of art like Gothic statues from the 15th century and paintings from the 16th and the 17th centuries (The Last Supper and Christ in the Gethsemane).

Je nach Verfügbarkeit Preis pro Person.The history of Korcula
Perched on a peninsula overlooking the crystal-clear waters of the Adriatic, Korcula is one of the Mediterranean’s best-preserved cities and offers those who explore its streets a veritable dive into history.
Built to a "fishbone” plan in the 13th century, the Old Town of Korcula seems to want to touch the sky. The cobbled streets, small squares and narrow dwellings all rise towards the azure blue, since they can’t push back the fortifications that surround the city. Amidst this picture-postcard decor sit several emblematic sites that you will have the chance to visit.
Your first visit will be the Bishop’s Palace and its Icon Museum. The museum contains a unique collection of Byzantine Icons dating from the 13th to the 15th century, brought back by sailors, as well as ceremonial pieces from the 17th and 18th centuries.
You will then explore the Cathedral of St Mark. Constructed in the 15th century and erected in the heart of the Old Town - on the former site of a 13th-century church – by local masters, in a style blending Gothic and Renaissance, it is undoubtedly Korcula’s most emblematic moment and, above all, an ode to Croatian expertise in Dalmatian stonework.
Opposite the cathedral, you will discover Gabrielis Palace and its Town Museum. With its collections of archaeological, ethnographic and artistic objects, you will be able to go back in time and discover the various influences on the city over the centuries.
Then admire the huge staircase that leads to Tower Revelin, guardian of the city erected in the 15th century, as well as its large gate, decorated with a sculpture of the lion of St Mark.
