Explore Croatia's stunning coastal region from the unique perspective of an e-bike and boat, perfectly combining leisurely cycling with scenic cruising. Starting in Dubrovnik, a UNESCO World Heritage site famous for its ancient city walls, you be able to wander through its charming streets before boarding your luxurious yacht and floating home for the week.
Sail and cycle around beautiful Adriatic islands including, Mljet, Korčula, Vis, Hvar, and Brač - each with their own special charm and character. The terrain ranges from gentle, wooded landscapes to more challenging coastal hills, but the e-bikes make it more manageable for riders of various fitness levels.
Highlights include the lush forests of Mljet, the charming old town of Korčula (birthplace of Marco Polo), and the pristine beaches of Vis, with a fascinating military history. On Hvar, you'll cycle through lavender fields and picturesque villages, while the island of Brač showcases amazing views over the sparkling Adriatic Sea, set against limestone landscapes - a brilliant white stone quarried for the construction of the White House and the German Reichstag building in Berlin.
Your trip finishes in the historic city of Split, another UNESCO World Heritage site, where you can explore the ancient Diocletian Palace and the city’s vibrant streets. We recommend giving yourself a few extra days on either side of your cycling tour, to allow additional time to explore Split and Dubrovnik fully.
As you explore Croatia’s beautiful islands and rich cultural heritage, you will be treated to the local cuisine, including cooked meals onboard your yacht, and will even have the opportunity to swim in the crystal-clear turquoise waters around you. With the support of your local expert guide, this moderate-to-challenging tour is ideal for those looking for an active yet comfortable experience.
The cycling on this tour is made easier with e-bikes, which will be used by the majority of guests and the guides. Road or gravel bikes are available but are recommended only for strong cyclists who are comfortable keeping pace with e-bikes.
Please note: This tour also runs in reverse from Split to Dubrovnik. Please see 'Dates & Prices' section below.
