Lektor Entdecken Sie mit PONANT die Schönheit der Adria auf einer einzigartigen 8-tägigen Kreuzfahrt in Kroatien. Lassen Sie sich von den verborgenen Schätzen der kroatischen Küste mitsamt ihrem türkisfarbenen Wasser an Bord der Le Lyrial verzaubern.
Ihre Reise beginnt in Venedig, sodass Sie die Gelegenheit haben die Stadt der Dogen mit ihren zahlreichen Kanälen, den Vaporetto-Booten und den berühmten Gondeln zu entdecken.
Von Venedig aus nehmen Sie Kurs auf Korčula, eine der grünsten Inseln Kroatiens, die von Olivenhainen, Weinbergen und alten Gebäuden geprägt ist. Ein Ort voller Geschichte und Geburtsort des Entdeckers Marco Polo.
Danach fahren Sie zur UNESCO Welterbe Stadt Dubrovnik, die mit ihren Befestigungsmauern ihren Beinamen „Perle der Adria“ alle Ehre macht. Gut geschützt innerhalb der Wehrmauern, mit ihren typischen terrakottafarbenen Dächern, besticht die Stadt mit charmanten Palästen, Klöstern und Brunnen.
Genießen Sie unvergessliche Momente beim Stopp in der Bucht von Kotor in Montenegro. Bewundern Sie die mittelalterliche, zwischen Meer und zerklüfteten Felsen eingeschlossene Stadt und ihre historischen Denkmäler. Das ruhige und tiefe Wasser der Bucht und hier und dort schwebender Dunst schaffen eine irreale und märchenhafte Atmosphäre.
Ihre Entdeckungsreise der kroatischen Küste endet mit Besichtigungen von Hvar und Rovinj, bevor es zurück nach Venedig geht.

Didier Barbelivien
Didier Barbelivien was born in Paris 10 March 1954. He has written more than 2,000 songs including Michèle for Gérard Lenorman, Petite fille du soleil for Christophe, Elle m’oublie for Johnny Hallyday, L’été sera chaud for Éric Charden, Il tape sur des bambous for Philippe Lavil, On va s’aimer and Les sunlights des tropiques for Gilbert Montagné, Mademoiselle chante le blues and Mon mec à moi for Patricia Kaas, Le mendiant de l’amour for Enrico Macias, and La rivière de notre enfance for Sardou and Garou.
He recently produced a book about his years of writing songs, published in 2019 by Albin Michel and called Pleure pas nostalgie.
Didier Barbelivien loves the company of trees as much as he does meeting strangers. He adores his family and his dog, and enjoys taking long solitary walks on Brittany beaches, and above all writing new songs. When he is not writing, he reads novels ranging from Balzac to Françoise Sagan, and Philippe Djian to Victor Hugo.

9. Juli 2021 Venedig
Einschiffung 09.07.2021 von 16h00 bis 17h00
Abfahrt 09.07.2021 um 18h00
Stolz und unvergänglich herrscht Venedig seit dem 6. Jh. über ihre Lagune. Man glaubt, sie zu kennen, bevor man überhaupt ihren Boden berührt hat. Dennoch erliegen Sie unweigerlich dem Charme der unzähligen Schätze der „Serenissima“: Markusplatz, Basilika, Dogenpalast, Canal Grande und die Gondeln. Sie möchten sicherlich auch ein weniger bekanntes Venedig entdecken, sich in dem Gewirr aus Gässchen und Kanälen verlieren, die Plätze besichtigen und hinter die Türen der Kirchen schauen. Das außergewöhnliche Kulturerbe sollte Sie aber nicht vergessen lassen, Ihre Gaumen rund um ein Glas Spritz und einige Tramezzini zu verwöhnen.
10. Juli 2021 Korcula
Ankunft 10.07.2021 am frühen Nachmittag
Abfahrt 10.07.2021 abends
Der ganze Reiz dieser Hafenstadt beruht auf deren Lage: Sie befindet sich auf einem Felsvorsprung an der Nordostküste der Insel Korcula. Die Befestigungen des mittelalterlichen Viertels eröffnen Ihnen schöne Ausblicke auf die Halbinsel Pelješac. Um zu diesen zu gelangen, können Sie die monumentale Treppe des Revelin-Turms benutzen.Andere Strecke: die Stufen unter Schatten spendenden Palmen des Meerestors. Irgendwo zwischen den Gassen taucht der Glockenturm der St.-Markus-Kathedrale auf. Dieses Emblem der Stadt ermöglicht Ihnen, mühelos das ganz nah gelegene Haus auszumachen, wo Marco Polo geboren sein soll. Die Insel wartet auch mit namhaften Weinen auf wie rotem Plavac oder weißem Posip.

Stolz und unvergänglich herrscht Venedig seit dem 6. Jh. über ihre Lagune. Man glaubt, sie zu kennen, bevor man überhaupt ihren Boden berührt hat.

The history of Korcula
2 h 00
Built on a peninsula, the streets of Korcula are organised around its main artery according to a "fishbone" plan drawn in the 13th century. To overcome the lack of space within the walls of the old town, squares are small, houses are narrow, churches and public buildings are constructed vertically. Fully fortified in the 16th century; its walls were destroyed in the 19th century and only a section of a wall still faces the harbour.
From the pier, meet your guide and start your walking tour of the old town.
Your first visit will be the Bishop’s Palace and its Icon museum. The museum contains a unique collection of Byzantine Icons from the 13th to the 15th century and ceremonial pieces from the 17th and 18th centuries. The collection is primarily from Korcula sailors, who acquired the pieces on their journeys, especially to Crete, in the 17th and 18th centuries.
Then, you will discover Saint Mark’s Cathedral. This cathedral is probably the most important building in Korcula Old Town. Completed in the 15th century at the place of another church from 13th century, it is built in Gothic-Renaissance style. It was erected by local masters and craftsmen of stone masonry, very well known for their Renaissance and Baroque pieces in Dubrovnik and Venice.
Continue your exploration with the visit of the Korcula Town Museum. Facing the cathedral, the museum is housed in Gabrielis palace, a 3-storey building with basement and attic built between the 15th and 16th century. The museum presents various collections covering the history and culture of the town from the Ancient times to nowadays.
During your walking tour, you can see the monumental staircase which joins the Revelin Tower. This 14th century portal and its 15th century Revelin tower frame the only land access to the walled Old Town. The gate is embellished on the inside with a sculpture of Saint Mark's lion over its arch. You will also discover the Marco Polo house, where the famous explorer is said to have been born in 1254.
Finally, you will have the choice between following your guide to join your ship or strolling on your own.
- This tour involves approximately 1 mile (1.5 km) of walking on narrow streets with some steps. We recommend you wear comfortable walking shoes and protect yourself from the sun.

Buggy adventure
4 h 00
From the pier, board your coach for a short transfer to reach the buggies.
After the safety briefing, follow your guide on an adventure of Korcula’s hinterland. During the drive see the hidden bays and coves that make the coast so unique. During your 2-hour exploration, you will drive mostly over gravelly terrain, but also on asphalted roads. Pass by olive groves and vineyards, explore coastal gravel roads above the villages of Žrnovo and Lumbarda, which offer panoramic views over Mljet and Lastovo.
After the first driving portion, you will arrive at a sandy beach where you will have 30 minutes of free time for swimming and to enjoy some refreshments.
Finally, you will head back to your ship.
- The buggy ride is on uneven, cobbled and bumpy ground. We recommend you wear comfortable walking shoes, wear your swimsuit under your clothes, bring a towel from the ship and protect yourself from the sun. A helmet is provided.

Mali Ston & oyster tasting
4 h 15
From the pier, board your motor boat for a 20-minutes sail to Orebic. Then you will have a 1-hour scenic drive along the Adriatic Road toward the town of Ston.
Ston was built according to the plans approved by the Dubrovnik government in 1335 and amended in 1370 and is considered as one of the best planned and best structured cities in Europe. The walls of Ston were a massive architecture and construction feat. Originally 7,000-metre long (22,965 ft), they consist of several parts; the Ston city walls, the Mali Ston city walls and the Big wall with its three forts. Its forts and towers are strengthened by 10 round and 31 square flanking towers, as well as 6 semi-circular bastions. It took almost four centuries to finish these complex defence walls, as the builders had to adapt to the rough terrain and advancements in warfare technology. The walls were last used for defence in the 19th century, and today they are a priceless monument of immense architectural and cultural value.
Once arriving at Ston, you will enjoy a walking tour of the city before reaching Mali Ston, where your local boat will await you to take you to oyster and mussel beds. Your host will welcome you on board and introduce you with oyster & mussel farming in this area. You will have the opportunity to learn about the oyster & mussel production as well as to taste freshly prepared oysters & mussels including mussel buzara (mussels cooked with wine, garlic and olive oil).
Re-board your coach for a 1-hour return ride back to Orebic along the old historical road passing through the old villages of Dubrovacko Primorje. And finally, your motor boat will take you back to Korcula.
- This tour is an active hiking tour and involves approximately 3.7 miles (6 km) of walking on uneven and sloping grounds with over 400 steps. We recommend you wear comfortable hiking shoes and protect yourself from the sun. The tasting is included on your tour. This tour is limited to 40 participants.

Krka waterfalls & lunch
5 h 45
On this tour, discover nature’s wonders: the Krka National Park and its famous waterfalls. A natural frontier between northern and central Dalmatia, the Krka River joins the Adriatic Sea at Sibenik. On its journey, the Krka drops down from a height of 45 metres in a succession of no less than 17 natural falls, before forming a lake and then narrowing down again to Skradinski Buk.
From the pier, board your coach for a 30-minute scenic drive to Skradinski Buk, the largest waterfall of the national park. Located on river banks, Skradinski Buk houses mills and wash houses. Upon your arrival, you will have the opportunity to discover the ethnological museum.
Located in the park, the museum provides a great deal of knowledge and history explaining how the park became a wildlife sanctuary for many different species of animals and plant life. If time permits, you can enjoy some free time at the National Park for swimming or just relaxing.
You will then discover some old water-mills where cereals are still ground by water-spun grindstones.
After enjoying some free time, you will re-board your coach and continue to the Village of Stankovci.
In the House of Dalmatian prosciutto, you will be able to learn about the production method of Dalmatian prosciutto and taste different products prepared here. The manufacturing facility is equipped with the latest technological devices, but whenever possible, they still use a natural drying system with the strong Mediterranean wind – “bura”.
After visiting the house of Dalmatian Prosciutto and having your lunch, you will join your coach and return to your ship harboured at Split, 1 ½-hour drive.
- This excursion involves approximately 1 hour of walking with 150 steps. We recommend you wear comfortable shoes, wear your swimsuit under your clothes, bring a towel from the ship and to protect yourself from the sun. Swimming in the waterfalls is forbidden before June. Lunch is included in your tour. This tour is limited to 45 participants.

Split & the Diocletian Palace
2 h 00
After the short walk (15 minutes) from the port to the Old Town you will start with the walking portion of the tour.
The Old Town of Split is built on and around the spectacular Roman Palace erected by the Roman Emperor Diocletian (born in Salona - todays Solin) in the 4th century. The walking tour starts with a visit of the Palace on the ground gallery that is still very well preserved. It offers a good view at how the life in the Palace was organised.
You will also visit the very interesting Cathedral of St. Duje (patron saint of the city). According to medieval sources, Archbishop John of Ravenna purified in 650 the mausoleum of Diocletian by getting rid of its idols and founded the Cathedral whose bell tower is now the symbol of Split.
The Cathedral is built on the remains of an ancient shrine and is supposed to be the oldest in the world. A visit will also be made to the charming Temple of Jupiter, turned into the baptistery by Christians. Observe the front panel or the ceiling with grotesque faces. Cross the Palace of the southern gate to the North door and discover the ramparts and the immense "statue of Gregory of Nin" by the Croatian sculptor Ivan Mestrovic.
After the walking tour you will head back to the ship. If you wish to spend some time on your own, you can visit the colourful open market (largest on the coast) or spend some time in the town before returning to the ship.
- This tour involves 1 mile (1.5 km) of walking on cobblestone streets with some steps. We recommend you wear comfortable shoes and protect yourself from the sun. Appropriate dress is recommended to enter religious sites (shoulders and knees must be covered). You have to walk 900 yards (800 m) between the ship and the palace entrance.

From the quay, you will board your coach for a 45-minute trip towards the mediaeval town of Trogir.
Trogir has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1997. It is considered to be the most beautiful mediaeval town in Dalmatia. Its old town dates back to the 3rd century BC and is home to many paved streets, palaces, a Romanesque cathedral and the Pinacotheca. Its narrow alleyways have not changed since their initial configuration and, as you explore them, you will really feel like you are stepping back in time.
Once arrived, you will visit its principal monuments, including the famous Cathedral of St. Lawrence.
The Cathedral of St. Lawrence in Trogir, dating back to the 13th century, is one of the most beautiful cathedrals in Croatia, along with that of Šibenik. A large part of the cathedral was also built in the 17th century. This unusual construction with three naves and three semi-circular apses dominates the entire town. The main portal, carved by local artist Radovan in the 13th century, is world famous. You will be able to admire the main portal, a masterpiece of Croatian Romanesque art, and the baptistery, which is a synthesis of gothic and Renaissance styles. Inside, you will discover the Renaissance-style burial chapel.
You will also be able to admire other buildings from the exterior, such as the Town Loggia, decorated with sculptures including one by Croatian sculptor Ivan Mestrovic, the town hall, the Cipiko Palace, etc.
After this guided tour, you will have some free time to discover the town by yourself.
- This tour involves approximately 2 km of walking on cobblestone streets with some steps to negotiate. We recommend you wear comfortable walking shoes and protect yourself from the sun. Appropriate clothing must be worn when visiting religious sites: trousers for men and skirts covering the knees for the ladies, shoulders must be covered.

Dalmatia, between flavors & culture
3 h 45
From the pier, you will enjoy a walking tour starting with the Old Town.

City walls & Lokrum Island kayaking
3h45
It is by an original way of transportation, kayak, that you will discover Dubrovnik’s charms. You will go along the city walls and navigate among caves and islands.
From the pier, meet your guide and stroll through the main street of Dubrovnik toward Pile Gate to the kayak centre.
After listening to the safety instructions, you will board your kayak and start your adventure.
You will row between the fortresses of Bokar and Lovrijenac.
The Bokar fortress is listed among Dubrovnik’s medieval fortresses and overlooks the south-west part of the old town. This circular fortress, dating from the 15th century, was built over a period of more than one century. This important monument, overshooting the medieval walls, was a key element in Dubrovnik’s defence system, including Pile Gate and City Bridge. In addition to its defensive role, it also served as a prison during the 19th century. Fort Bokar is one of the oldest castles of its kind in the world.
Built upon a 37-metre-high sheer rock overlooking the sea, fortress Lovrijenac is one of the most impressive locations in Dubrovnik. This detached fortress was of prime importance for the defence of the western part of Dubrovnik, both against attacks from land and the sea. Chronologists date the fort to 1018 or 1038. However, first records of the fort’s existence are from 1301 when the council elected the Commander of the Fort. According to legend, in the 11th century Venice planned to send its troops to this rock in front of Dubrovnik and build a fortress in order to conquer the city. However, Dubrovnik learned about this plan and the citizens were mobilised to erect a fortress at the very same spot before the Venetians arrive. While all the other fortresses are part of the city wall system, this one stands high on its own rock, a position which earned it the title ‘the Gibraltar of Dubrovnik’.
Leaving the forts behind, you will steer a course round the city walls to Lokrum. According to legend, Richard the Lionheart was cast ashore here after being shipwrecked in 1192 when he came back of his 3rd crusade. You will make a stop at the island, enjoy some refreshments and have time at leisure to discover the island or have a swim.
- All kayaks are 2-seaters. This tour involves some walking with some steps. We recommend you wear your swimsuit under your clothes, bring a towel from the ship and protect yourself from the sun.

Ston walls hiking & oyster tasting
5 h 15
From the pier, board your coach for a 1-hour scenic drive along the Adriatic Road toward the town of Ston.
Ston was built according to the plans approved by the Dubrovnik government in 1335 and amended in 1370 and is considered one of the best planned and best structured cities in Europe. The walls of Ston were a massive architecture and construction feat. Originally 7,000-metre long (22,965 ft.), they consist of several parts; the Ston city walls, the Mali Ston city walls and the Big wall with its three forts. Its forts and towers are strengthened by 10 round and 31 square flanking towers, as well as 6 semi-circular bastions. It took almost four centuries to finish these complex defence walls, as the builders had to adapt to the rough terrain and advancements in warfare technology. The walls were last used for defence in the 19th century, and today they are a priceless monument of immense architectural and cultural value.
Once arriving at Ston’s walls, you will start your hiking passing distance of almost 4 kilometres over demanding terrain with more than 400 steps before reaching Mali Ston, the “oysters capital” of Croatia.
Upon arrival in Mali Ston, you will board a local boat which will take you to oyster and mussel beds. Your host will welcome you on board and introduce you with oyster & mussel farming in this area.

Perast & our Lady of the Rock
4h00
From the pier, embark your coach for the 25-minute drive to Perast, town with almost the same number of churches as the number of inhabitants.
Once arriving, you will enjoy the scenery and architecture of this old historical town. Between the 13th and 18th centuries Perast belonged to Venice. The most beautiful buildings were constructed under the period of the Republic of Venice in the 17th and 18th centuries when Perast was at its peak. The Parish Church in Perast was built in 1740 by the Venetian architect, Giuseppe Beati but only the church tower and the church vault remain. You will visit the St. Nicholas Church, patron saint of the sailors.
There are two small islands in the close vicinity of Perast: St. George Island and Our Lady of the Rock Island.
You will reach the man-made islet of Our Lady of the Rocks after a 15-minute boat ride. The stone plateau in the middle of the sea with a church on it is the result of the enduring efforts of generations of mariners “to leave there, in the very heart of the Bay of Boka Kotorska, a testimony of their Christian faith and culture…”. The island was built artificially by scuttling old ships and depositing stones around a small crag. The construction of a sanctuary began in the first century of the Venetian rule. The sanctuary was dedicated to the Assumption of the Virgin because this cult was greatly venerated by the Venetians. On the altar is the famous icon of Our Lady of the Rock, a 15th century work by Lovro Marinov Dobricevic. It is the most valuable work of art in the church because its history is so closely related to that of the island, the only artificially built island in the Adriatic. The church itself is decorated with more than 2,500 votive tablets made of silver, mostly donated by seamen.
Finally, you will get back to Kotor, following your guide on a walking tour of the city.
- This tour involves approximately 1 hour of walking, mainly over uneven and cobble-stone streets. We recommend you wear comfortable walking shoes and protect yourself from the sun. Appropriate dress is recommended (shoulders and knees covered).

Medieval village & truffle tasting
5 h 30
Medieval whispers of charming hilltop towns and flavours of wine and traditional truffle specialities will give you a unique experience of the hilly Istrian.
From the pier, you will board your coach and start your 1-hour scenic drive to Motovun, an architectural landmark.
This hilltop town has preserved its medieval ambience in its narrow streets within the town walls which have been preserved in their entire length.
After enjoying a guided visit and some free time in this fortified village, you will drive to the village of Livade.
Livade Village is the best-known Village on the Istra Peninsula famous for its truffles. The season of the white truffle starts in October and lasts until the end of January. The season of the black truffle starts in May and lasts until November.
The white truffle (Tuber Magnatum Pico) is the largest and the most precious truffle. Its colour ranges from yellow-brown to green or grey-green. The black truffle (Tuber Aestivium Vitt), also known as the 'summer truffle', is brown to black in colour, while its size varies from the size of a cherry to the size of an apple, as is the case with the white truffle. The biggest truffle found weighed 1.31 kg and entered the Guinness Book of World Records. It was found on 2 November 1999 near Buje by Mr Giancarlo Zigante.
In the Zigante restaurant you will have the opportunity to enjoy a local lunch made of local truffles while sipping glass of Istrian wine.
After your lunch, you will return to your ship.
- This excursion involves walking distance on cobblestone ground with some steps. We recommend you wear comfortable walking shoes and protect yourself from the sun. Appropriate clothing is recommended to enter the religious sites (shoulders and knees must be covered). Lunch is included on your tour. This tour is limited to 40 participants.

Le Lyrial
Le Lyrial, die 2015 als viertes Schiff der Sisterships-Serie in See stach, ist der Inbegriff dieser neuen Generation von Kreuzfahrtschiffen in menschlichem Maß Seine inneren und äußeren Linien mit ihrer Nüchternheit und Raffinesse, machen dieses Schiff zu einer außergewöhnlichen und innovativen Jacht.
Für die Inneneinrichtung ließen wir uns von den Farben unserer Reiseziele inspirieren und entwickelten daher eine Palette rund um Blau. Die Nuancen reichen von den grauen und hellen Tönen des Polareises bis hin zu den lebendigen und türkisfarbenen Noten mediterraner Buchten.
