MS Sveti Vid / Route RB

Port of Rijeka - Kvarner Region

Comfort Plus

Description

This proud, modern three-master was a core part of our fleet for many years, until its former owner decided a couple of years ago to organise a different type of cruise. In autumn 2016, Sveti Vid was sold – and to none other than our long-term captain Marin Mladin (nicknamed Čičak or “burdock” because of his beard) from the Otac Luka, whose rudder he held in his hands for eleven years. Čičak and his son Marin completely renovated Sveti Vid in Winter 2016/2017 with no external assistance whatsoever. The bathrooms in all the cabins were completely renovated and newly furnished and the saloon was completely redesigned. His wife Nina also had a significant hand in decorating the saloon, which can be seen at first glance. While Captain Čičak steers the Sveti Vid with a sure hand through the Adriatic, his son Marin takes care of the guests and makes sure that everything on board is in perfect order.

Impressions from the itinerary

Route

Route:

2025: Rijeka – Island of Krk – Island of Rab – Island of Pag – Island of Lošinj – Island of Cres – Rijeka
2025: Rijeka – Island of Krk – Island of Rab – Island of Pag – Islands of Olib or Ilovik – Island of Lošinj – Island of Cres – Rijeka

If you arrive in Rijeka with your own car, you can drive into the harbour and directly to your ship from 08:30 am until 12:00 noon at the latest. Here you will unload your luggage, which will first be stored under our care until the cabins are ready for occupancy at 11:30 am. Our service team will then guide you to the garage and transfer you back to the port. Our bicycles are already waiting in front of the ship to be taken over by you. After you have selected a bike and possibly taken it for a test spin, our team will take care of loading it onto the ship. Afterwards, you will be greeted by our representative with a welcome drink and get to know the crew and fellow passengers. We weigh anchor and set sail for Njivice on the island of Krk. Here we start the first stage by bike – from Njivice we go to Porat and back to Njivice. Overnight stay in the port of Njivice. 22.0 kilometres by bike, ascent and descent 240 m each.

The port of embarkation for passengers depends on flight times. If flight and transfer are booked via I.D. Riva Tours and arrival at Rijeka airport by 11:30 am, embarkation in Rijeka is guaranteed; if arrival is later, embarkation in the first port of overnight stay.

After breakfast we cycle from Njivice via Čižići to Vrbnik, an old town perched high on a rock on the east coast of Krk. The famous golden-coloured wine "Žlahtina" comes from the vineyards around Vrbnik. Opportunity for lunch in a cosy konoba before we head towards the town of Krk. Dinner on board and overnight in the port of Krk. 43.6 bike kilometres, ascent and descent 570 m each.

The boat takes us to Lopar in the north of the island of Rab, which we reach after a short ride. We cycle via Supetarska Draga to Rab, where our ship awaits us for lunch against the unmistakable backdrop of the old town with its four bell towers. After lunch, we take a tour of the 1,400-hectare Kalifront forest park with its holm oaks that are up to 1,000 years old. After a break in the "Bay of Love" we return to Rab. Guided tour of the town followed by dinner in one of the restaurants. Overnight on board, 19.0 or 22.2 bike kilometres, ascent and descent 210 or 230 m each.

It only takes half an hour by boat to reach Lun on the northernmost tip of the neighbouring island of Pag. The island captivates above all by its contrasts – sometimes barren like a lunar landscape, sometimes lush green herb meadows, on which the countless sheep feed, which "produce" the famous Pag sheep's cheese. We first cycle to Novalja, the main town on the northern half of the island, where we take a break for a coffee, for example. We continue by bike to Mandre, where the ship is already waiting for us in the harbour. Lunch on board, afternoon at leisure, opportunity for dinner in Mandre and overnight. 33.8 bike kilometres, ascent and descent 350 m each.

Today we have a somewhat longer "sea voyage" ahead of us – the trip from Mandre to Mali Lošinj on the island of Lošinj takes about four hours. On the way, we anchor for lunch on board in a bay. Arriving in the harbour of Mali Lošinj, we unload the bikes again to get to know the uniquely lush nature with extensive pine forests. We cycle around Čikat Bay along the sea and through Sunčana Uvala (Sunny Bay) to the picturesque harbour town of Veli Lošinj and back. Opportunity for dinner in Mali Lošinj and overnight stay. 18.3 km by bike, ascent and descent 220 m each.

The "2-island day". After breakfast we start pedalling again and cycle from Mali Lošinj to Osor, where the islands of Lošinj and Cres are connected by a swing bridge. We continue via Belej and Vrana to Cres, the main town on the island. Lunch on board, after which you have the afternoon at leisure, e.g. to cycle to one of the beaches in the area. Overnight stay in the port of Cres. 54.9 bike kilometres, ascent and descent 710 m each.

The last cycle tour of our journey leads us from the harbour along the sea to the green lantern on the southern side of the entrance to the bay of Cres. Then we cycle through the town to the red lantern on the northern side of the entrance and along the sea back to the ship. Lunch on board in Cres, then we load the bikes for the last time. We leave the harbour of Cres and sail to a bay in the north of the island for another extensive swim in the blue Adriatic Sea before returning to Rijeka. Opportunity for dinner in Rijeka and overnight stay. 12.8 bike kilometres, ascent and descent 60 m each.

After breakfast, disembarkation until 9:00 am.

If you are travelling to Rijeka in your own car, you can drive to the port and directly to your ship between 8:30 a.m. and 12:00 p.m. at the latest. Here you can unload your luggage, which will be stored under our care until the cabins are ready for occupancy at 11:30 a.m. Our service team will then escort you to the garage and transfer you back to the port. Our bicycles will be waiting for you in front of the ship. Once you have selected a bicycle and taken it for a test ride, our team will load it onto the ship. You will then be welcomed by our tour guide with a welcome drink and have the opportunity to meet the crew and your fellow travellers. Then we will weigh anchor and set sail for Haludovo on the island of Krk. This is where the first stage of the bike tour begins, taking us to the port of Krk, where we will spend the night.
23.0 kilometres by bike, with 200 metres of ascent and descent.

After breakfast, we cycle from Krk via Dobrinj to Vrbnik, an old town perched high on a cliff on the east coast of Krk. The famous golden-coloured wine ‘Žlahtina’ comes from the vineyards surrounding Vrbnik. There is an opportunity to have lunch in a cosy konoba before we set off towards the town of Krk.

The destination of today's bike tour is Novalja, a lively town with a charming centre and small cafés. After lunch on board, the journey continues to a bay where a long swimming break is on the programme. For the overnight stay, the captain sets course for the islands of Olib or Ilovik.

Today we head for the green island of Lošinj, known for its mild climate, fragrant pine forests and long tradition as a climatic health resort. Upon arrival in Mali Lošinj, the bicycles are unloaded. We cycle along Čikat Bay, right by the sea, to the picturesque harbour town of Veli Lošinj and back. Our ship will be waiting for us with lunch on board. The afternoon is free – ideal for exploring the charming town. Alternatively, it is worth taking a walk to the Mediterranean Fragrance Garden. Opportunity for dinner in Mali Lošinj and overnight stay.
20 kilometres by bike, 220 metres of ascent and descent.

Port of Rijeka - Kvarner Region

Rijeka is the third largest city in Croatia and the largest and most important seaport of the country. Rijeka is just a few hours by car from central Europe – public transportation (bus and train) depart from several countries on a daily base. 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.

Tip recommendation: You will certainly be happy to reward the service crew’s performance with a tip. We recommend an amount from € 10-15 per cabin and day.
