MS Aria / Route R7
Port of Rijeka - Kvarner Region
Description
Captain Jure Tomaš and his MS Planka have been an integral part of our fleet since 1998. Since his son Marin has also been a captain for years now, Jure and Marin decided to build a new ship in the summer of 2014. The result was impressive, because in June 2016 the MS Aria, a majestic motorized sailing ship, went on its maiden voyage – the height from the waterline to the mast top is 32 m. A 675 hp engine gives the Aria a top speed of 12 knots, while the normal cruising speed is a comfortable 8 to 9 knots – after all, you should be able to enjoy the Adriatic Sea and its islands in peace. After three years, Jure has replaced his son Marin at the helm of the Aria, while Marin took care of the family's next ship newbuilding. By the way, the name "Aria" does not come from the aria in the opera or from the Italian word for air, but stands for "weather" in Dalmatian dialect.

Route
In order to make this possible also for our guests who book their cruises individually, and not as part of a charter group, we have listened to the proposals of our guests and captains and offer special Captains’ Tours, following the motto – “Let’s trust the captain – he will put together an interesting route for us, because ultimately, he knows the sea and the Croatian islands best!”
Exclusive Captain's Route – the insider tip for individualists
* From 11:30 am to 1:00 pm, boarding time in the port of Rijeka.
* The port of embarkation for passengers arriving by plane depends on the flight schedule. With transfer booking via I.D. Riva Tours and flight arrival to Rijeka airport until 11:30 am, embarkation in the port of Rijeka is guaranteed. Passengers arriving later will be transferred to the first port of call for embarkation.
* The itinerary is not prescribed, but created by the captain in a flexible way. Considering weather and sea conditions, he will show you his favourite bays and places.
* At least two nights in sheltered coves and small fishing villages.
* A maximum of three nights in major towns, visited by the route R1, possibly not on the same days as other ships.
* Whenever possible, the group will avoid meeting groups from other boats and sharing overnight locations.

The airport is located 30 kilometres outside Rijeka on the island of Krk. The city centre is close to the harbour and offers fantastic shopping opportunities, plus a number of cultural monuments and many places of interest. There is plenty of evening entertainment along the harbour road, the “Riva”.Sojourn tax and harbour fees are not included in the prices and are payable in cash on board upon embarkation. These are € 49 per person and week, € 24 for children up to 12 years.
