Dalmatia from Dubrovnik Plus
Croatia Bike + Barge Tours
Bike Croatia and see the Dalmatian islands
If you would like to experience a bike tour in Croatia like no other, the region of South Dalmatia is not to be missed. Accompanied by your floating accommodations, you get to know this sparsely populated part of Croatia including the islands of Šipan, Korčula, Hvar, Mljet, Lastovo, and Pelješac. The highlight of the trip is the town center of Dubrovnik that is listed on UNESCO’s world heritage list with its imposing city wall and its narrow alleys. Biking in Dubrovnik will make for an absolutely unforgetting experience. Another special highlight is the excursion to Mostar, widely known by the bridge that was destroyed during the Balkan war, which has since been restored and is today the symbol of peaceful coexistence of different ethnic groups.

Day 3: Lastovo Island (Cycle route approx. 17 mi./27 km)
Day 4: Islands of Korčula and Gradac (Cycle route approx. 28 mi./45 km)

Day 6: Pelješac peninsula and Korčula Island (aprx. 16 mi./25 km)
Day 7: Mainland Prapratno - Slano - Dubrovnik (Cycle route approx. 19 mi./30 km)
Day 8: Dubrovnik (Disembarkation)
*All distances are approximate. The above planned itinerary is subject to change due to changing wind and weather conditions and other unforeseen circumstances having to do with mooring requirements, etc.
Day 1: Dubrovnik (Embarkation)
Individual journey to Dubrovnik. Check-in on board starts between 2 and 2:30 pm at Gruž, the town port.
At 4:30 pm, a guided tour through Dubrovnik is offered, where you hear some interesting details of the town’s history and visit the most important sites, such as the Roland, the city walls or the Franciscan monastery. The boat will spend the night in Gruž offering the guests an opportunity to experience Dubrovnik’s nightlife.
Day 2: Islands of Šipan and Mljet (Cycle route approx. 7 + 16 mi./11 km + 25 km)
A pleasant cycle trip takes you after breakfast past the villas of Dubrovnik’s rich and noble citizens and further on through the verdant forests, fertile valleys and subtropical parks of Šipan Island. Afterwards, cruise to the green and forested island Mljet - known as the honey island. It is with 90% of woodland one of the best wooded islands in the Mediterranean area. Homer mentioned this lovely island in his epic poem “Odyssey”. He made it a home for the Nymph Calypso and the legendary Greek king Odysseus, whom could not resist Calypso and stayed on Mljet for seven years. In the afternoon, explore Mljet national park by bicycle and spend the night in Pomena.
Day 3: Lastovo Island (Cycle route approx. 17 mi./27 km)
Early in the morning the ship takes you to the Island of Lastovo. The island of Lastovo is one of the smallest inhabited islands in the Adriatic Sea. Emperor Augustus appreciated the mild climate, and in Roman times it was even named “Augusta Insula” after him. The Island has barely more than 1,000 inhabitants who continue to live off fishing the extremely rich waters, agriculture, and viticulture. The gold-colored white wine “Marastina”, known even beyond Croatia’s borders, is grown here. Today’s cycle tour takes you in a large circle across the beautiful island.
Day 4: Islands of Korčula and Gradac (Cycle route 12.5 mi./20 km + optional 16 mi./25 km)
After the day’s first crossing over to Korčula Island, regarded as one of the most beautiful islands in Dalmatia, you will cycle from Vela Luka to Račišće where the boat awaits to the mainland. There is enough time to enjoy a lengthy swim stop on anchor. Today's destination is the harbor of Gradac quite close to the delta of the Neretva River, which is the most important one in the Herzegovina region.
Day 5: Excursion to Mostar
In the morning a transfer bus takes you across the Bosnia-Herzegovina border to Mostar. A guided tour familiarizes you with the location and the town’s world-famous landmark, the bridge across the River Neretva. It was destroyed in 1993 through heavy shelling, reopened in 2004 and is protected as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Grab the chance to stroll through the old town of Mostar which is the National heritage of Bosnia and Herzegovina. On your return trip, stop in Počitelj with its well-preserved fortress (or if the weather is very warm and sunny at the Kravica waterfall) before continuing to Gradac. Back at the ship the day ends with relaxing on board by having a nice glass of wine.
Day 6: Pelješac peninsula and Korčula Island (aprx. 16 mi./25 km)
Today’s bike tour takes you across the Pelješac peninsula from Trpanj to Vigan. On the descent, you will be able to admire beautiful views of the deep blue sea and the neighboring island of Korčula, seemingly only a stone’s throw away. After a lengthy swim stop, you will spend the late afternoon in Korčula town, which competes with Venice for the honor of being the birthplace of the famous explorer Marco Polo. You will have ample time in the evening to wander through the fabulous old town and its narrow lanes laid out in a fishbone pattern.
Day 7: Mainland Prapratno - Slano - Dubrovnik (Cycle route approx. 19 mi./30 km)
A longer crossing on board the boat hugs the beautiful coastline of the Pelješac peninsula on your way to the small ferry harbour of Prapratno. The tour takes us from Prapratno to Ston where there is enough time to take a walk along the famous city wall. This is the longest, intact, fortification wall in Europe and is often compared with the Great Wall of China. The tour takes you further to the small harbor of Slano on the mainland. The boat awaits you here forone last cruise back to the city of Dubrovnik. A cheerful evening meal on board the boat gives you time to celebrate the success of the week with fellow travelers and tour guides.
Day 8: Dubrovnik (Disembarkation)
Disembarkation at 9 am and individual trip home or extended stay in Dalmatia/Croatia.

Cecily 1 year ago Verified Reviewer
We were a party of six, using E bikes. We couldn’t have done it with out because although we cycle regularly, we’re not that used to these gradients. Our guides were terrific, the whole cycling experience was very professional and we had a great time. We thought the trip to Mostar was unnecessary and added nothing to our experience.
Our only other criticism was in the catering department, there was plenty of food it but the salads lacked imagination, and we had a lot of hot food in very hot weather.
All the staff were excellent, skillful and polite, and made us very welcome.
The tour was a good blend of excercise plus cultural experiences, and the boat was wonderfully comfortable

The guides, the boat, the food, the staff all contributed to making this a perfect vacation. Swimming off the boat into beautiful water after a long bike ride was perfect. Biking the hills required lots of stamina, but the scenery at the top was worth the work. Thanks to everyone for making this a fun trip.

The staff and the crew went together to create an experience that we won’t soon forget. From first class food and accommodation to well maintained equipment and tour guides who at every possible opportunity went out of their way to make sure that there was nothing that could be improved on. I finished the tour knowing that while I couldn’t have done it without an e bike, the enthusiasm, excellent coaching and mental route preparation by Lucy and Ben made each day while still a challenge, a wonderful scenic outdoor adventure.

Great views and biking. The ebike really helped on the climbs but you still get a workout if you want one. Great weather and scenery and great guides. It was nice to get off the bike and go to Bosnia mid week. Eating so much on the boat wasn't my favorite and the fact that we had to pay extra for the day at the farm/winery seemed a bit cheap as I know other tours pay for these types of things. Having to get instructions in two languages (German and English) seemed a bit long. But the boat was nice and enjoyed it. If you are a swimmer you might might to come a bit earlier in the season.

Biking in Dalmatia islands is spectacular, and Harmonia crew and guides were particularly accommodating. We never could have seen these places on our own. That's a point worth reinforcing: don't expect to go off on your own too much--you need to stick with the group to make sure that you're at the boat at the time of departure, but the payoff in info and support from the guides is well worth it.
Bikes were excellent quality--make sure you make clear whether you want a regular bike or e-bike well in advance--staff will strive to meet your needs but it pays to be sure.
It was also a treat to get to know an international group of similarly inclined people--very friendly people who all meshed well.

The most memorable part was a combination of the boat, guides, people on the tour, food, scenery, biking, weather - it all added up to a great holiday.
One thing which could be improved is information about bike options. We assumed since an E bike was included in the price that everyone would have an E bike and we didn't want to get left behind! There was no indication there was a discount for a hybrid bike. Only about half our group had E bikes and we would definitely have selected a hybrid bike if we had known that. (Those who booked directly with Island Hopping paid extra for an E Bike).

The guides, Senad and Lucija, were outstanding. The food was great and almost too plentiful! The kitchen staff and waiter did an incredible job of meeting my specific dietary requirements. Our only suggestion is to change the pricing to include water, bike insurance, etc. We would rather pay it all in one shot as the extra costs were mandatory.

The least satisfactory part of this trip was the food - I thought there would be more fish options, considering we were on the sea. The 2 fish dishes that were served were not good - one was very dry, and the other was smothered in a too-salty sauce. The desserts were memorable - for their lack of taste. The breakfasts were fine. The salads that preceded each main course were also fine. Someone mentioned that it might be worth Read more… your charging a bit more and offering better quality food. I was not the only one disappointed in the food offerings. More opportunities to swim would also have been appreciated, at least by me.
Actually, upon thinking about this, I probably wouldn't recommend this program, and would encourage others to look for better options.

To say the Dalmatia from Dubrovnik Plus bike and boat tour was most excellent would be a gross understatement of fact! The Harmonia ship was a dream boat - roomy cabins with large baths, a chef that really should get a Michelin star or two and staff that were friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. We biked up long mountainous terrain and were rewarded with views that were breath taking (we were also rewarded with a nice long downhill ride). After our rides, we would tuck into a cove and swim in the beautiful, blue, clear, Adriatic Sea. It just doesn't get better than this! Bonus - a day trip to Mostar to see the famous bridge. The eight days were over in a heartbeat - I will certainly take another trip like this though how it can be topped is beyond my comprehension. Tripsite has many options so I feel confident that I will find another biking trip that will be equally enjoyable.

My husband, I and two friends did the island hopping tour along the southern coast of Croatia in Sept 2012. The San Snova is a beautiful boat with a friendly very helpful crew. Sailing between islands was lovely. Our guides were always encouraging even on the steeper hills. Never have I seen such a beautiful country and crystal clear water as in Croatia. Each island was unique, the people friendly, the small towns charming and Dubrovnik a gem.

This was such an amazing adventure. We have done several bike and barge tours down rivers and canals but this is the first ocean island hopping trip and won't be the last. Everything about it was perfect: the beautiful scenery, the San Snova and it's crew, the bike riding and the food and great hospitality. Highly recommend it! Thanks Pack and Pedal for organizing it. Croatia: Southern Dalmation coast and the old walled city of Dubrovnik is a must. Dennis rode each day but I chose not too and the guides were so helpful to me in arranging things I could see and do as a non-rider. Loved it all!!!!
