Cruise Overview

Venice is a city unlike any other.

No matter how often you've seen it in photos and films, the real thing is more dreamlike than you could imagine.

With canals where streets should be, water shimmers everywhere.

The fabulous palaces and churches reflect centuries of history in what was a wealthy trading center between Europe and the Orient.

Getting lost in the narrow alleyways is a quintessential part of exploring Venice, but at some point you'll almost surely end up in Piazza San Marco, where tourists and locals congregate for a coffee or an aperitif.

Getting lost in the narrow alleyways is a quintessential part of exploring Venice, but at some point you'll almost surely end up in Piazza San Marco, where tourists and locals congregate for a coffee or an aperitif.
Šibenik's main monument, its Gothic-Renaissance cathedral, built of pale-gray Dalmatian stone and designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site, stands on a raised piazza close to the seafront promenade.

From here a network of narrow, cobbled streets leads through the medieval quarter of tightly packed, terra-cotta–roof houses, and up to the ruins of a 16th-century hilltop fortress.

The city has never been a real tourist destination.

Before the Croatian war for independence, it was a relatively prosperous industrial center, but when the factories closed, Šibenik sank into an economic depression.

However, the cathedral more than warrants a look, and it makes a decent base for visiting the waterfalls of Krka National Park.
