MY Princess Aloha / Route TD

Between 1:00 p.m. and 2:00 p.m., embarkation at the port of Trogir. If you are travelling to Trogir in your own car, you can drive to our car park reception between 10:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. at the latest. Park your vehicle here and our service team will take your luggage to the port or to the ship in good time. It takes about ten minutes (approx. 1,100 m) to walk to the port via the pedestrian bridge. Our bicycles will be waiting for you in front of the ship. Once you have chosen a bicycle and perhaps taken it for a test ride, our team will take care of loading it onto the ship. You will then be welcomed by our tour guide with a welcome drink and get to know the crew and your fellow travellers. After that, we will weigh anchor and head towards Supetar on the island of Brač. Brač is also known for the white limestone that is quarried here – buildings all over the world, such as the White House in Washington and the Reichstag in Berlin, were built from it. Upon arrival in Supetar, we will pick up our bikes and ride via Splitska and Postira to Pučišća. In October, this stage may be omitted as the days are noticeably shorter. Overnight stay in the port of Pučišća.
25 kilometres by bike, 370 metres of ascent and descent.
The port of embarkation for passengers depends on flight times. If you book your flight and transfer through I.D. Riva Tours and arrive at Split Airport by 1 p.m., embarkation in Trogir is guaranteed; if you arrive later, embarkation will take place at the first port of call.

After breakfast, we leave the island of Brač and set course for the island of Korčula. After a swim break, we moor in the harbour of the small town of Račišće and, after lunch on board, load the bicycles from the deck. We cycle to a viewpoint above the town of Korčula and back to Račišće via Pupnat and Kneža. We then continue by boat towards the town of Korčula, where we moor for the night – some in the main town, some in the nearby ferry port of Dominče (approx. 5 km away), as the town harbour has limited capacity, especially in the high season. A stroll through the beautiful, fortress-like old town of Marco Polo's birthplace in the late afternoon is a delight. Opportunity for dinner in Korčula.
32 kilometres by bike, 540 metres of ascent and descent.

We leave the island of Korčula and set course for the island of Mljet. Part of the island has been declared a national park – two saltwater lakes are connected to the sea by only a narrow channel. We moor in Sobra and pick up our bikes again. At a leisurely cycling pace, we ride through the island's species-rich, lush forests to Saplunara, where we have plenty of opportunity to swim at the beautiful sandy beach. We cycle back to Sobra, have lunch on board and continue to the island of Šipan, which belongs to the Elafiti archipelago. Opportunity for dinner in our overnight accommodation in Šipanska Luka.
30 kilometres by bike, 700 metres of ascent and descent.

Today's short bike tour takes us from Šipanska Luka to Suđurađ and back on the island of Šipan. From here, we take a motor glider to Dubrovnik, where we arrive at lunchtime. After lunch on board, our tour guide will pick you up at the ship for a guided tour of the old town. The old town is just a few minutes away by bus, which departs from right next to our ships. Buses run approximately every 10–20 minutes, and the fare is € 2 (at the kiosk) or € 2.50 (on the bus). The last return bus leaves at around 1:00 a.m. (as of November 2024). After the city tour, you will have the rest of the day to discover and enjoy the unique old town, which resembles an open-air museum. Stroll along the famous ‘Stradun’, take a walk along the mighty city walls or take the cable car up to the 415 m high Mount Srđ, which offers a unique view of the old town and the sea. Opportunity for dinner and overnight stay in Dubrovnik.
11 kilometres by bike, 120 m ascent and descent.

We leave Dubrovnik and head for the Pelješac peninsula. Pelješac is Croatia's second largest peninsula after Istria and, at 77 km, also the longest. The mountainous peninsula – the highest peak measures 961 m – is one of Croatia's most famous wine-growing regions. After a swim in one of the countless bays, we head for the small village of Kućište, where we have lunch on board. Afterwards, we go on a round trip – cycling along the sea via Viganj to the viewpoint at an altitude of 173 m, from where we have a fantastic view of the island of Korčula opposite. We then take the ‘upper road’ to Orebić, where we stop for a coffee break before returning along the coast to Kućište, where we also spend the night.
23 kilometres by bike, 270 metres of ascent and descent.

After breakfast, we set off by boat for the island of Hvar, the Adriatic island with the most hours of sunshine and a particularly mild climate. On the way, we enjoy a long swim break before lunch is served on board. Upon arrival in Stari Grad – the oldest settlement on the island, founded in the 4th century BC as the Greek colony of Pharos – we cycle through Mediterranean landscapes and vineyards. Our round trip takes us via Jelsa, a charming coastal town with a lively promenade and cosy cafés. Opportunity for dinner and overnight stay in the harbour of Stari Grad.
22 kilometres by bike, 160 metres of ascent and descent.

The journey by motorised sailboat from Stari Grad to Rogač on the island of Šolta takes two hours. Alternatively, we can call at Štomorska or Maslinica. Šolta is one of the smaller Dalmatian islands and is known among connoisseurs for its first-class dark olive oil. We cycle on a round trip through unspoilt old villages. Then we load our bikes onto the deck for the last time to return to Trogir after lunch on board and a swimming break. Trogir is also known as the ‘museum city’ due to its old town, which is protected by UNESCO. Guided tour of the old town, followed by the opportunity to dine in one of the countless restaurants and overnight stay.
17 kilometres by bike, 220 metres of ascent and descent.

After breakfast, disembarkation by 9:00 a.m.
