Shore excursions & land activities

The Adriatic Paradise cruise focuses on land-based exploration and coastal discovery rather than underwater activities. Guests enjoy guided walking tours through historic sites such as Diocletian’s Palace in Split and the medieval streets of Korčula, offering deep insights into the region's rich cultural heritage. Nature lovers can explore the pristine landscapes of Mljet National Park through guided hikes and nature walks. For those who wish to enjoy the water, the vessel provides easy access to secluded Adriatic bays for swimming and snorkeling. Guests can also utilize the onboard kayaks and stand-up paddleboards to explore the coastline at their own pace, enjoying the calm, clear waters of the Mediterranean in a relaxed and leisurely setting.

Booking & Travel FAQ

How does the booking process work?

Select a cabin and departure on Lupus Mare, 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.

Can I cancel or change my booking?

Cancellation terms vary by operator and are in your confirmation. Generally, the earlier you cancel the higher the refund. Changes depend on availability, contact us as soon as possible.
