The bucket-list things to do — and the private, expert-led way to do each.
Here’s the bucket list for your day ashore: the most extraordinary thing to do at each stop, and the private, small-group, or expert-led way to make it yours — your own pace, real access, none of the crowd.
Step inside Croatia's most perfectly preserved medieval walled town with a licensed local expert. Narrow herringbone-patterned lanes, Gothic palaces, and Marco Polo's alleged birthplace await — unhurried, in private.
Watch the Moreška — a centuries-old battle sword dance unique to Korčula — performed by costumed warriors in a thunderous outdoor spectacle. This living UNESCO-listed tradition is performed nowhere else on Earth.
Journey 6 km east to Lumbarda — the only place on Earth where the rare indigenous Grk white grape grows — for a private cellar tour and guided tasting of Korčula's celebrated Pošip and Grk wines amid centuries-old stone terraces.
Tear through Korčula's fragrant pine forests, hidden coves, and hilltop olive groves in a private off-road buggy — stopping for a swim at a secluded beach and a feast of local cheeses, prosciutto, and island wine.
Paddle the crystal-clear Adriatic along Korčula's wild southern coastline in a private or small-group sea kayak, slipping into sea caves and hidden bays that no boat can reach — finishing with wine in a waterfront konoba.
Cross to the Pelješac Peninsula for the ultimate Dalmatian indulgence: plucking live oysters from the Renaissance saltpan waters of Ston, then touring the Dingač wine region — home of Croatia's most celebrated red — with a private sommelier guide.
