XOccasional
Biking – 40-50 km (25-30 mi.) a day over relatively flat terrain with a few small hills—all very manageable for people trying their first biking trip.
Walking – 6-10 km (4-6 mi.) a day on country lanes, footpaths and coastal or forest trails, all on relatively flat terrain, perhaps with an occasional hill.
Recreational
Biking – 40-50 km (25-30 mi.) a day over terrain that’s relatively flat but will include inclines and the occasional climb or two.
Walking – 8-12 km a day over relatively flat terrain, with occasional steeper climbs.
Enthusiast
Biking – 40-50 km (25-30 mi.) a day in gently rolling countryside, with occasional longer climbs to points that are well worth the effort. Layover days accommodate varying preferences.
Walking – 11-15 km (7-10 mi.) a day over rolling terrain on a variety of surfaces. Most days, one or two steeper climbs to spectacular viewpoints or places of interest.
Avid
Biking – Roughly 50 km (30 mi.) a day in consistently rolling countryside, with repeated climbs and longer options available.
Walking – 11-15 km over terrain that varies between rolling and hilly, with a few steeper climbs.
Expert
Biking – 50-60 km (30-45 mi.) a day over both level and tougher, hillier terrain with multiple 100 km (62 mi.) options. The routes are designed for avid cyclists and include plenty of chances to push yourself.
Walking – 11-15 km (7-10 mi.) a day over fairly hilly terrain offering lots of challenges. Routes are along high meadow paths and/or well-maintained cliffside or alpine trails, with a few steep ascents to make you feel invigorated.
A true island odyssey
Experience the Dalmatian Coast the way it was created: by sea. Hop off our small luxury yacht to pedal the countryside, poke into breathtaking fortresses and coves, and taste the island’s best wines in the winemaker’s own home. Explore red-roofed, stunning Dubrovnik at your own pace. Later: cool your jets in the crystal-clear Adriatic, and soak up a sunset from the back deck on Hvar.

Morning Star Gulet, Split
Welcome aboard the luxurious Morning Star—an all-wood, six-cabin gulet that is nimble enough to venture into the coves and ports large cruise ships can't access. Feel at home tucking into plush beds in mahogany-panelled, air-conditioned suites and take in the magnificent scenery from the open-air dining area while an attentive, four-person crew takes care of your every need.

There is nothing I would change about our trip. We kept feeling that things could not be better than the moment we were experiencing but then the next day would bring new surprises, new memorable sights, tastes, sensations.
Monica Lamontagne
While there is some lovely level pedaling along the seashore and through tranquil vineyards and olive groves, there are also plenty of long, gradual climbs on hairpin switchbacks, followed by thrilling miles-long downhills. But the pace is mellow, and often electric bikes can be arranged to make the climbs easier.
