Croatian Islands Luxury cruise

We have all had the most amazing holiday on board Avangard! Returning to Split by 9am was no problem at all, in fact we docked at around 8.15am

 Everything was perfect; the Ship, our cabins, Crew, the food and a brilliant tour manager (Aida).

Powell, thank you for your recommendation of Hotel Perisil, it was great, despite the early morning bells at 6am! Many thanks to, for all your help in answering our many questions before departure!
