Split - Dubrovnik, Dubrovnik - Split with Harmonia

Itinerary

Route

Tour profile: Level 2-3

Exclusive e-bike tours for island hoppers with a good level of fitness. The tours, including the metres in altitude, are easily manageable by e-bike (30 - 60 km with 400 - 700 metres in altitude per day).

All bike tours require participants to have a certain basic level of fitness and to be able to control the bike safely. There is always enough time to complete the tours. Our tour guides will inform you in detail each day about the level of difficulty of the planned daily tour. These are primarily designed as guided e-bike tours. Gravel bikes can also be hired for this tour, but the guided group pace is orientated towards the e-bike riders.

Itinerary Dubrovnik - Split

Day 1: Dubrovnik (embarkation)
Individual arrival in Dubrovnik. Embarkation between 2 and 2:30 pm in the city harbor of Gruž. At around 4:30 pm, we offer you a guided city tour of Dubrovnik. Take the opportunity to enjoy this extraordinary city in the evening as well!

Day 2: Dubrovnik – Island Šipan, approx. 11 km
In the morning we take the ferry to the nearby island of Šipan, which is the largest of the Elaphiti Islands, but still a rather small island. However, what the island lacks in size, it easily makes up for with its unique charm. A great place for your first bike ride and an even better place to spend a night in peaceful island surroundings.

Day 3: Island of Mljet – Island of Korčula, approx. 33 km
In the morning, we continue by boat to Sobra on the green island of Mljet. It is green because 70% of it is forested, making it the most densely wooded island in the Mediterranean. After arriving at the port of Pomena, enjoy the crossing to the island of Korčula. The picturesque town of Korčula competes with Venice for the honor of being the birthplace of the famous explorer Marco Polo. Here you can enjoy a guided tour through the old town’s herringbone lanes and hear fascinating anecdotes about the history of the city and the island.

Day 4: Island of Korčula: Vela Luka – Korčula town, approx. 60 km
Today’s bike tour allows you to explore the entire island of Korčula, which many consider to be one of the most beautiful islands in Dalmatia. A Mediterranean climate and breathtaking scenery await you. You will be amazed by the beautiful views, lush vegetation and deep blue water. Enjoy dinner on board and let the active day come to a relaxed close in the large, sheltered bay of Vela Luka.

Day 5: Island of Vis, approx. 32 km
In the morning, enjoy a breakfast cruise to the island of Vis with a possible swim stop before arrival. Vis is the furthest inhabited island from the mainland in Croatia. A Greek colony called Issa was founded here 2300 years ago. Due to its strategic location, the island of Vis was a military zone and closed to foreign tourists until 1995. In the afternoon, you will have the opportunity to explore the enchanting island by bike. From the town of Vis, you will cycle once around the entire island with a coffee stop in the harbor of Komiža.

Day 6: Island of Hvar: Hvar Town – Stari Grad, approx. 40 km
The day begins with a relaxed boat ride to Hvar Town on the island of the same name. Take advantage of the time before the start of the bike tour for a short stroll through town. Today’s bike tour takes you from the town of Hvar through small villages and lavender fields over the island’s ridge to the port city of Stari Grad. After lunch on board, we will set off on another bike ride to Jelsa. Take a break here for an ice cream or a coffee before the bike tour continues through the picturesque little town of Vrboska and through the famous Stari Grad field, which was parceled out by ancient Greeks and is now under UNESCO protection. Your destination today is the artists’ village of Stari Grad, where you will spend the night.

Day 7: Island of Brač: Milna – Postira, approx. 30 km
In the morning, we take the ferry to the island of Brač, famous for its bright white limestone, which was used, among other things, for the White House in Washington and the construction of the German Reichstag building in Berlin. Once on Brač, we start our bike tour in Milna. As we climb the island, spectacular views of the Dalmatian coast open up before us. We then return to the coast to Postira, where our ship awaits us for lunch and the last crossing of the week to the UNESCO World Heritage city of Split. During a guided tour of Split, you will have the opportunity to visit the former palace of Emperor Diocletian and learn more about its transformation into today’s old town of Split. During a convivial dinner on board the ship, you can look back on a wonderful journey through Dalmatia with your fellow travelers and tour guides.

Day 8: Split (disembarkation)
After breakfast disembarkation in Split. Afterwards individual trip back home or extension of your vacation in Dalmatia.

Learn interesting details about the city’s history and see the most important sights. The ship remains in the port of embarkation overnight.

Day 2: Split – Island Hvar, approx. 23 km
You will take the ferry to the island of Brač, which is famous for its bright white limestone, which was used, among other things, for the White House in Washington and the Reichstag in Berlin.

Day 3: Island of Hvar – Island of Vis, approx. 20 km
Today’s bike tour takes us through lavender fields and small villages to the island’s capital Hvar on the opposite side of the island. Use the time until the crossing to marvel at the magnificent Renaissance square, take a short stroll through the old town alleys and enjoy the view of the Spanish fortress towering high above the city. Afterwards, the ship will take us to the island of Vis for the night.

Day 4: Island Vis – Island Korčula, approx. 32 km
Vis is the furthest inhabited island from the mainland in Croatia. 2300 years ago a Greek colony called Issa was founded here. Due to its strategic location, the island of Vis was a restricted military area until 1995 and was closed to foreign tourists. In the afternoon, you have the opportunity to explore the enchanting island by bike. Starting in the town of Vis, you will cycle around the entire island, stopping for a coffee in the harbor of Komiža and a traditional lunch along the way. After the tour, you will transfer to Vela Luka on Korčula, where you will spend the night.

Day 5: Island Korčula, approx. 60 km
On today’s bike tour you explore the entire island of Korčula – for many it is one of the most beautiful islands in Dalmatia. Mediterranean climate and breathtaking scenery await you. Marvel at beautiful views, rich vegetation and deep blue water.

Day 6: Island Korčula – Island Mljet, approx. 33 km
After a relaxed morning crossing, we arrive in Pomena on the island of Mljet. From here we cycle across the entire island of Mljet, which, with 70% forest, is one of the most densely wooded islands in the entire Mediterranean. Homer also mentioned the island in his Odyssey, describing it as the home of the nymph Calypso, who held the famous hero here for seven years. Your ship will pick you up in Sobra for the crossing to the small island of Sipan.

Day 7: Sipan Island – Dubrovnik, approx. 11 km
Sipan is the largest of the Elafiti Islands, yet it is still a very manageable island. What Sipan lacks in size, however, it makes up for in charm, making the islet a wonderful place for the last bike tour of this trip. Back on board during the crossing to Dubrovnik, you will have time to look back on this wonderful and varied week before an interesting guided city tour awaits you upon arrival in the World Heritage city of Dubrovnik. After the tour, there will be enough time to explore this exciting city on your own. During an atmospheric dinner on board, you will say goodbye to the crew and tour guides and perhaps already make your first plans for the next Islandhopping trip.
