Saturday: Zadar–Island of Ugljan–Island of Pašman–Island of Murter

Between 11:30 am and 1:00 pm embarkation in the port of Zadar. If you arrive in Zadar by your own car, you can drive to the port and directly to your ship from 8:00 am until 12:00 noon at the latest. Here you can unload your luggage. Our service team will help you to bring your luggage on board, which will first be left on deck until the cabins are ready for occupancy at 11:30 am. Then take your car to the parking garage reserved through I.D. Riva Tours and return to the port on foot. Our bicycles are already waiting for you in front of the ship. After you have chosen a bike and possibly taken it for a test spin, you will be greeted by our tour guide with a welcome drink and get to know the crew and fellow passengers. During a snack on board, we cast off and cross over to Preko on the island of Ugljan. We cycle via Kali and Kukljica to the Ždrelac bridge, which connects the islands of Ugljan and Pašman. We continue via Neviđane, Pašman and Kraj to Tkon, where our ship is already waiting for us. We load the bikes back on board and set course for Podvrške Bay on the island of Murter. Dinner on board and overnight stay. 32.8 bicycle kilometres, ascent and descent 190 metres in altitude 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 Zadar airport by 12:00 noon, embarkation in Zadar is guaranteed; if arrival is later, embarkation in the first overnight port.

Sunday: Island of Murter–Tisno–Tribunj–Vodice

After breakfast we unload the bikes from the deck and cycle via Murter and Betina to Tisno, where a lift bridge connects the island of Murter with the mainland. Our next destination is Tribunj. The picturesque little town lies on an island connected to the mainland by a natural stone bridge. After a one-hour break, we continue to Vodice, a popular holiday resort. Lunch on board, opportunity for dinner in Vodice. 25.5 bike kilometres, ascent and descent 170 metres in altitude each.

Monday: Vodice–Krka Waterfalls–Šibenik

From Vodice we cycle to the 100 m high viewpoint "Okit" and on to Skradin, just before the Krka waterfalls. Here the boat with lunch is already waiting for us. After lunch we cycle through the National Park to the "Skradinski Buk", with 800 m the longest and probably best known part of the waterfalls. An impressive natural spectacle, because here the Krka falls in 17 steps with cascades up to 100 m wide. After a stay in the area of the waterfalls, we cycle back to Skradin to take the boat to Šibenik. Opportunity to have dinner in Šibenik and spend the night. 36.3 and 9.1 bike kilometres, ascents and descents 280 and 70 metres in altitude respectively.

Tuesday: Šibenik–Kornati Islands National Park–Telašćica Nature Park

Today there is only a short cycling tour on the programme. We cycle from the pier in Šibenik to the fortress of Sveti Nikola, which is located on a small island at the entrance from the Adriatic Sea to the Bay of Šibenik. After visiting the fortress, we cycle back to the ship to set sail again. We set course for the National Park of the Kornati Islands, which consists of 125 mostly uninhabited, partly barren islands and islets. We sail the full length of the national park, of course not without stopping for a swim. Our destination today is the Telašćica Nature Park, a protected bay cut about ten kilometres deep into the island of Dugi Otok. Striking features are the steep cliffs up to 161 m high and the saltwater lake Mir, which are only a few minutes' walk from the ship's pier. In the idyll of this nature park, the Captain's Dinner will be served today. Overnight stay in the Telašćica Nature Park. 18.7 bike kilometres, ascents and descents 110 metres in altitude each.

Wednesday: Telašćica Nature Park–Island of Dugi Otok

After breakfast we unload the bikes from the deck again and cycle through the nature park to Sali, where we have a coffee break. We continue via Zaglav, Žman and Luka to Savar. In the cosy village our ship is already waiting for us with lunch. We have the afternoon at leisure, for example for an extensive swim in the sea. Originally, we were supposed to spend the night in Sali. However, it is not possible to moor in Sali because a new harbour is being built there, which will not be completed until 2025. As there is no restaurant in Savar, you will have an additional dinner on board today, in the form of cold plates. 32.3 bike kilometres, ascents and descents 480 metres in altitude each.

Thursday: Island of Dugi Otok–Island of Molat

Today we cycle the north-western part of the island of Dugi Otok. From Savar we cycle via Dragove to the Veli Rat lighthouse. After a break, we continue to Božava, where we load the bikes back on deck. After lunch on board, we head for one of the bays on the islands of Dugi Otok, Zverinac or Molat for a swim before mooring in the small harbour of the village of Molat. Opportunity for dinner in one of the three restaurants in Molat and overnight stay. 33.5 bike kilometres, ascent and descent 440 metres each.

Friday: Island of Molat–Zadar

Today we will finish with a shorter bike tour – from Molat we cycle via Brgulje to Zapuntel and back to Molat. We load the bikes on deck for the last time and set course for Zadar. On the way we stop for a swim before we dock in Zadar, where our guide awaits you for a guided tour of the old town, which is situated on a peninsula and surrounded by mighty walls. Opportunity for dinner in one of the numerous restaurants and overnight stay in Zadar. 17.3 bike kilometres, ascent and descent 180 metres in altitude each.
