We invite you to join Tour Director Wendy Fracchia on this cruise that will excite your inner adventure seeker along with giving your heart and mind the experience of a lifetime.
Star Clippers is a perfect sailing experience for mobile, active lifestyle guests of all ages…those with “adventure in their hearts”, regardless of age. Yes, this is a “tall ship” with sails, but it is also a modern ship with propeller motors and all the amenities for smooth sailing as they follow the coastlines of the counties they visit. If you want a memorable trip of a lifetime that is unique, experiential, culturally immersive and includes easy and energetic adventures and activities, then this is the trip for you.
This cruise is a dream itinerary, a round trip from Venice, Italy aboard the ROYAL CLIPPER, the largest and most elegant of their 3 ships. As she is a true "sail-ship" this is the only passenger cruise ship still allowed to sail through the Venice Grand Canal! This will be one of the highlights of the trip. We sail down through the Adriatic Sea, down the Dalmatian Coast of Croatia visiting some of the most beautiful and still pristine coastlines in all of Europe. We will fall in love with the charm of one of the four historical regions in Croatia.
We explore this glorious area exploring the small islands and villages and seeing the picturesque seaside towns of this area. Doing THIS cruise on THIS ship is the only way to truly experience this area. Be sure to add the Pre-Venice tour to start your vacation. (details coming)
ROMANCE THE WIND ABOARD A TALL SHIP
Inspired by the legendary tall ship Preussen the 439-foot Royal Clipper offers the ultimate seagoing experience, balancing the splendor, adventure, and tradition of sailing with the superb service, amenities, and accommodations of the finest private yacht.
- 227 guests in a luxurious style
- 19,000 square feet of open deck
- 54,000 square feet of billowing sails - a total of 42 sails
- 3 swimming pools
- A marina platform for ocean access to watersports activities
- Clean energy by using very pure, high-quality low sulfur gas oil
ONBOARD ADVENTURES: Find your secret sanctuary on one of the hidden balconies on either side of the bow.
Climb the mast (with safety harness and instruction provided) to one of the passenger lookout “crow’s nests,” 75 feet over the water level, thoughtfully furnished with a comfortable settee, where you’ll have the grandest view of all. Don’t forget your camera! Relax in the bowsprit net suspended above the ocean or be on the lookout for dolphins.
MODERN & ELEGANT DESIGN: Royal Clipper boasts a modern navigation system with every comfort and luxury one could wish for. Its Piano Bar is the ideal spot for pre-dinner drinks, or perhaps a refreshing cocktail with fellow guests at the Tropical Bar. The restaurant’s three-deck atrium funnels sunlight into the elegantly appointed, tri-level dining room, and features open-seating dining and a no-tie dress code. The one-of-a-kind Captain Nemo Lounge, a spa and health club with underwater glass portholes, is the ideal place to get pampered.

Kotor, Montenegro
This stunning rock-walled chasm splitting the coastal mountains of Montenegro is the longest arm of the sea in southern Europe. Boka harbors one of the prettiest, unspoiled towns you'll ever see, the medieval city of Kotor. Founded by the Romans, fortified during the Byzantine era, and then ruled by Venice for much of its history, Kotor has been naturally preserved by its isolation.

The town of Vis was founded in about 397 B.C. as a base for the Greek colonization of the Adriatic Sea.

To the east lies the complex of the Franciscan monastery and to the south, Rovinj's oldest monument, the Romanesque heptagonal chapel of the Holy Trinity.
