- Day 8May 31
Zadar, Croatia
About Zadar
It may sound like the name of some fantastic distant land or even a planet, but the only things out of this world about Zadar are its seaside views, delicious Croatian-Mediterranean cuisine and wines and the warm welcome when you arrive in this history-steeped Croatian town.
- Day 9Jun 1
Koper, Slovenia
About Koper
Located on the tip of Istria, Slovenia's main port was an island until the 19th century, but local history goes back much further.

About Venice (Ravenna)
Along the northeast coast of Italy is where you’ll discover the historic town of Ravenna. Once a thriving seaport in ancient times (it now lies five miles inland), Ravenna was also the westernmost pillar of the Byzantine Empire.
