Enjoy the unique flair of the Adriatic on the most picturesque coastlines of Croatia, Montenegro and Greece with the EUROPA 2.
Start your cruise in the port of Dubrovnik, the pearl of the Adriatic. The next day you will head to Hvar on the island of the same name, a pretty town boasting a waterfront promenade lined with palm trees. This is also the ideal starting point for a VW Beetle Cabriolet tour* into the hinterland. In Split in Dalmatia, you will be impressed by the waterfalls in Krka National Park* before spending a wonderfully relaxing day in the Bay of Kotor in the midst of beautiful scenery. With Kerkyra, you will reach a Greek dream destination – the famous island of Corfu with hidden beaches, countless olive groves, traditional mountain villages and an impressive capital. After a quiet day in Argostolion on the island of Kefalonia, the heart of all culture lovers will beat faster: in Nauplia on the Peloponnese, three of the most important archaeological sites in Greece await you with Tiryns*, Mycenae* and Epidaurus*. A visit to the island of Spetses – the epitome of elegance of bygone times – is also an extraordinary experience. Enjoy an atmosphere of exclusivity and luxury here before the EUROPA 2 calls at the destination port of your cruise, Piraeus (Athens).
