Your Croatia Guided Adventure
Your Day by Day Itinerary
Day 1 - Arrival
Arrive in Split in time for the important 6pm meeting with the team at your hotel. Because you won't have much time in Split, we recommend you arrive earlier in the day or the day before to explore even more. How about wandering around the ruins of Diocletian's Palace, or the well preserved underground basements? There are also many spots for a bite to eat or glass of Dalmatian wine.
Included:Hotel
Day 2 - Brac Island Cycling
35km total distance
Take the ferry over to Supetar on Brac Island, where you will have a bike fitting and test ride. Then, make your way on windy roads to Pucisca, a beautiful coastal town. From here, step back in time into traditional Croatian life at Dol, the 'ethno-eco village' filled with picturesque vineyards. As you climb the 7km ascent, which has a average gradient of 7.5%, look out at the beautiful sea and forested landscape - it'll be a great motivator! End the day in Bol, with a much deserved wine tasting at a local winery and seafood dinner.
Included:Hotel
Bed & Breakfast
Fully Supported Guided Riding
Day 3 - Hvar Island Cycling
27km total distance
Today, you will take the ferry again, this time to Stari Grad. Once a Neolithic settlement as far back as 3500BC, Stari Grad is one of the oldest towns in Europe. After visiting the medieval Dominican Monestery and Tvrdalj Fortess, ride onward to the heart of Hvar Island off the beaten track. Admire views of the entire bay, with Brac Island in the distance, before descending into Hvar Town. This vibrant town is encompassed by ancient walls, and features traffic free streets for you do wander through freely and explore the sights.
Included:Hotel
Bed & Breakfast
Fully Supported Guided Riding
Day 4 - Korcula Island
Have a lie in, or wake up refreshed and ready to return to exploring Hvar Town, as today there will be no cycling. Take a boat tour of the nearby islands or bask on one of the many postcard perfect shores. Later in the day, catch the catamaran to Korcula Island. You will arrive late in the evening, so why not take a late stroll through the Venetian narrow streets and have dinner overlooking the Adriatic Sea.
Included:Hotel
Bed & Breakfast
Day 5 - Korcula Island Cycling
48km total distance
Although a long day in the saddle, it'll be worth it for the outstanding scenery and visiting the pebble beaches and fishing villages. To avoid a particularly difficult climb up to Pupnat, your next overnight destination, you will be transferred in a vehicle in the morning. After breakfast, cycle down to the gorgeous coastline at Pupnatska Luka, then return back to Pupnat via Blato and Vela Luka. Have a leisurely evening at the local farm, where you will be provided dinner and wine made from ingredients on the farm.
Included:Private Apartment
Bed & Breakfast
Dinner
Day 6 - Dubrovnik
27km total distance
From Korcula Island, take a boat to Orebic, where you will be transferred by car up the steep hills to Postup. Have your camera ready for the Panorama Viewpoint, before cycling the back roads through expansive vineyards to the bay of Zuljana. Think of the picnic you will soon have as you climb up to Putnikovic, which features an optional wine tasting too. Then, the support vehicle will transfer you to the ancient city of Dubrovnik, stopping at medieval Ston for an orientation walk. There will also be an orientation walk of Dubrovnik's walls.
Included:Hotel
Bed & Breakfast
Fully Supported Guided Riding
Orientation walk of Dubrovnik
Day 7 - Departure
Feel free to depart Dubrovnik at any time, however we strongly recommend that you stick around and explore the city. Get lost in the narrow side streets, take the cable car to Srd Hill to view Dubrovnik from above or visit the many museums illustrating Croatia's history. Let us know if you'd like to stay an extra day and we can arrange accommodation for you.

What Our Cyclists Say
Booked our first ever cycling holiday to Croatia and surrounding islands through Love Velo and it was one of the best holidays we’ve ever had. Good communication beforehand and everything taken care of from the moment we arrived until we left. Now looking at another trip, this time to Cambodia and Vietnam! Can’t wait!

I recently went on a wonderful trip with Love Velo to Croatia and I can highly recommend them to others! I have to say cycling is slightly out of my comfort zone. They guided me and supported me through the whole process and planned a very well executed trip with excellent route through Istria countryside. We did not need to worry about a thing.
