Luxury Cruising Flourishing on Croatia's Adriatic Coast

Leading regional destination management company, Adriatic DMC has entered July with a bang thanks to a bumper day in luxury cruising across its Croatian ports.

The company welcomed three of the world’s premium cruise vessels to Dubrovnik yesterday: Ritz Carlton Yacht Collection’s Evrima, Explora Journey’s Explora 1, and Star Clipper’s Royal Clipper.

Adriatic DMC delivered a range of shore excursions showcasing local gastronomy, culture and history, and outdoor adventure programs for all three ships in Dubrovnik.

Explora I’s visit to Dubrovnik yesterday marked its inaugural call to the Pearl of the Adriatic, a delegation of public officials from the City of Dubrovnik and Port of Dubrovnik visited the ship to welcome its crew to the city.

In addition to delivering ground operations for the companies’ shore excursion programs, Adriatic DMC’s port agent department provided its services to Evrima and Royal Clipper in Dubrovnik along with Virgin Voyage’s Resilient Lady in Split and SeaDream Yacht Club’s SeaDream I in Sibenik.

Further north, premium cruise line Silversea’s Whisper docked on Rab island where Adriatic DMC’s Istrian operations team delivered ground operations that covered 12 shore excursions.

Srdjan Kristic, managing director at Adriatic DMC said, “Croatia’s Adriatic Coast rightly deserves its reputation as a premium destination in Europe, and luxury cruise companies like Ritz Carlton, Explora Journeys, and Star Clippers recognize that ports like Dubrovnik offer passengers the chance to indulge in authentic local culture as well as high-end experiences in stunning surroundings.

“I’m delighted that we were able to welcome Explora I to Dubrovnik for the first time today and am sure it will be the first of many calls it makes.”
