This 16-night Venice and The Adriatic by River and Sea package combines 7 nights aboard Uniworld’s S.S. La Venezia exploring the Venice lagoon with 9 nights aboard Azamara Journey sailing the Dalmatian Coast to Athens via Koper, Opatija, Zadar, Split, Sibenik, Dubrovnik and Kotor, with Uniworld early booking savings of 30% and Azamara savings of $6,000 per stateroom both included.
There is something particular about Venice in October that the summer crowds never experience. The morning mist sits low on the lagoon, the light is golden and oblique from mid-afternoon, and the city belongs almost entirely to the Venetians themselves once the last day-trip ferries leave for the mainland. Seven nights aboard S.S. La Venezia, moored in the heart of the historic city, gives you enough time to move past the famous squares and bridges into the neighbourhoods and islands that most visitors never reach. Then the Adriatic begins: nine nights aboard Azamara Journey sailing the Dalmatian Coast at the finest time of year to visit it, when the summer crowds have gone, the water is still warm enough to swim and the walled cities of Croatia are at their most authentic. This is the Mediterranean autumn at its best, from the canals of Venice to the ancient shores of Greece.

YOUR ITINERARY
Arrive in Venice with a shared transfer from the airport to the port, where you’ll embark on the elegant S.S. La Venezia. Settle in and let the magic of the world’s most unique city set the tone for the journey ahead.
...A full day to immerse yourself in Venice. Wander the narrow calli, cross the iconic bridges and discover hidden squares away from the crowds — all with the expertise of your Uniworld local guides.
...Explore the art-filled city of Padua, home to one of Europe’s oldest universities and Giotto’s breathtaking Scrovegni Chapel. Later, cruise to the peaceful island of Mazzorbo, sister island to the colourful Burano.
...Spend the morning on Burano, famous for its rainbow-coloured fishermen’s houses and centuries-old lacemaking tradition. Cruise south to Chioggia, a charming lagoon town often called “little Venice.”
...A leisurely day to explore Chioggia’s bustling fish market, porticoed streets and beautiful baroque cathedral — authentic Italian life without the tourist crowds.
...Bid farewell to Chioggia as you cruise back through the lagoon to Venice. Spend your final river cruise evening soaking up the atmosphere of this incomparable city.
...Another day to explore Venice at your own pace — revisit a favourite spot, discover a new neighbourhood or simply linger over an Aperol Spritz as the gondolas drift by.
...Disembark the S.S. La Venezia and board the Azamara Journey at Fusina, departing at 6:00 PM. As the ship glides away from the lagoon, your Mediterranean adventure is just beginning.
...Arrive at 8:00 AM in this charming Venetian-influenced port town on Slovenia’s Adriatic coast. Explore the marble-paved Tito Square, medieval old town and waterfront promenades before the ship departs at 10:00 PM.
...Pull into the elegant resort town of Opatija at 8:00 AM. Once a favourite retreat of Austro-Hungarian aristocracy, its grand villas, seaside promenade and lush gardens still exude old-world charm. Depart at 6:00 PM.
...Arrive at 8:00 AM in one of Dalmatia’s most captivating cities. Don’t miss the Sea Organ — a one-of-a-kind instrument played by the waves — and the stunning sunset from the Sun Salutation installation. Depart at 8:00 PM.
...A full day in Croatia’s second city, arriving at 8:00 AM. The heart of Split is Diocletian’s Palace, a remarkably intact Roman emperor’s retirement home that today buzzes with cafes, galleries and life. Depart at 10:00 PM.
...Arrive at 8:00 AM in one of the Adriatic’s most authentic towns. Sibenik’s Cathedral of St James is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a marvel of Renaissance architecture. Depart at 8:00 PM.
...Arrive at 8:00 AM in the “Pearl of the Adriatic.” Walk the magnificent city walls, explore the marble-paved Stradun or take the cable car up to Mount Srd for panoramic views over the old town. Depart at 10:00 PM.
...Arrive at 8:00 AM in one of the Mediterranean’s most dramatic settings. Kotor’s walled medieval old town sits at the foot of steep mountains at the head of a stunning bay. Depart at 1:30 PM.
...A peaceful day at sea to relax, reflect and savour the final hours of your cruise. Enjoy the ship’s amenities, fine dining and entertainment as you sail towards Greece.
...Arrive at 5:00 AM into Piraeus, the port of Athens. Your journey concludes here with a private transfer from the port to the airport. Seventeen extraordinary days — from the canals of Venice to the ancient shores of Greece.
...YOUR SHIP - The S.S. La Venezia
The River Countess underwent a complete design renovation in 2020, debuting as the S.S. La Venezia to bring guests an enhanced luxury experience inspired by Northern Italy. The redesign of the S.S. La Venezia drew influence from the fine Fortuny fabrics displayed prominently onboard. Murano glass, gilded accents and artistic etched elements pay homage to popular Venetian aesthetics of the early 20th century, creating an onboard atmosphere that is at once elegant and nostalgic.
