Set Menu Dinner

Dining on the Alisa is a highlight of the cruise, featuring a gourmet approach to traditional Croatian cuisine. Guests enjoy a daily four-course lunch, meticulously prepared by the onboard chef using fresh, locally sourced ingredients. The menu emphasizes regional flavors, with a focus on fresh seafood and seasonal produce. Meals are served in an elegant outdoor setting, allowing guests to dine while enjoying the stunning backdrop of the Adriatic. The culinary team is highly attentive to guest needs and can accommodate specific dietary requests, such as those related to religious beliefs or food allergies, when notified in advance.

Shore excursions & land activities

The Alisa focuses on land-based exploration and coastal discovery rather than underwater activities. Guests are invited to participate in guided visits to historic towns and ancient sites along the Dalmatian coast, where local guides provide insights into the rich cultural heritage of the region. The pace is relaxed, allowing ample time for walking tours and independent exploration of island villages. For those who enjoy the water, the vessel provides easy access to secluded bays for swimming and snorkeling. The crew facilitates water-based activities such as kayaking and stand-up paddleboarding, allowing guests to explore the coastline at their own pace. These activities are designed to be accessible and enjoyable for all guests, regardless of their experience level, ensuring a perfect balance between active exploration and serene relaxation.

Booking & Travel FAQ

How does the booking process work?

Select a cabin and departure on Alisa, and we send a real-time inquiry to the operator. After availability is confirmed, you receive a booking confirmation by email and secure your spot with a deposit.

When do I need to pay?

A deposit (usually 25-35%) is due upon confirmation. The remaining balance is typically due 4-8 weeks before departure, depending on the operator.

What documents will I receive?

After your final payment, you'll receive a travel voucher with meeting point, embarkation time, airport transfer details, packing tips, and your full itinerary.

How do I get to the cruise ship?

Adventure cruise ships embark at a designated port or meeting point, depending on the itinerary. Some operators arrange airport pickup, group flights or transfers; check your booking confirmation and travel voucher for what is included. We recommend arriving in the gateway city at least one day before departure, unless your operator provides different instructions.

What clothing and footwear should I bring?

Bring sturdy, closed-toe walking shoes with good grip for shore visits, and comfortable clothing suited to your destination's weather. Pack breathable layers, a sun hat and sun protection for warm regions; for colder or wetter conditions, add warm layers and a waterproof, windproof jacket. Check the operator's packing list for landing footwear, any supplied equipment and specific requirements.
