The itinerary
at a glance

For your 8-day round trip in the Trogir area

Individual arrival to Trogir and embarkation on board between 1:00 and 2:30 pm. At 3:00 pm we take a short cruise to the nearby island of Brač. Once we have arrived in the seaside town of Postira, we unload the bikes and start with the adjustments! Our warm-up tour takes us along the coast of the island Brač to Pučišća and back. We enjoy a relaxed evening in this sleepy town, familiarizing ourselves with the boat and our fellow travelers over a first evening meal together.

Brač is famous for its radiant, precious limestone that was, among others, used for the White House in Washington and in the construction of the German Reichstag building in Berlin. Today's ride leads us from Postira traversing the island in all directions with multiple climbs and incredible views before enjoying an incredible descent to Sumartin. Here the boat awaits our arrival, and we cruise to the holiday town of Makarska on the mainland.

Makarska sits at the foot of the Sveti Jure Mountain, the heart of the Biokovo Nature Park. After a nourishing  breakfast our tour today takes us along the coast before climbing the coastal mountain range. We circumnavigate the Biokovo Nature Park with some challenging climbs but also some incredibly scenic panoramas. Back in Makarska, we board the boat and navigate to the harbor of Sućuraj at the eastern most point of the Island of Hvar. We enjoy a peaceful night for recovery.  

The island of Hvar is perfect for the fourth ride of the week. With a less challenging ride today, we can focus on enjoying the island vibe with views of the sea multiple times throughout the undulating landscape. We cycle from the sparsely populated eastern tip of the island towards the west where the island comes to life with the towns of Hvar, Stari grad and Jelsa. We can cool down with an ice cream along the way before retiring to the boat in the afternoon in Stari Grad. 

On our training ride today we explore island of Korčula on a round tour. It is considered by many to be the most beautiful island in Dalmatia. A breathtaking landscape and a Mediterranean climate awaits us. Look forward to multiple panoramas and lush vegetation. We meet our boat back at our starting point of Vela Luka and enjoy a relaxing cruise in the afternoon to the Island of Vis. It is here that we spend the night. 

Vis is the furthermost inhabited island from mainland Croatia. A Greek colony called Issa inhabited the island 2,300 years ago. Due to its strategic location, it was a military zone until 1995 and prohibited for foreign tourists. The island is small but the ride is a delight. We climb, we coast, we descend all whilst riding an entire loop of the island and enjoying the most incredible views along the way. Back at the boat we cast off for an afternoon cruise to the port of Milna on the Island of Brač where we spent the night.

In the morning, we enjoy a cruise back to Trogir. From here, your last cycling stage starts through the hinterland and numerous small villages. On the way, there are great views of the town of Trogir and the island of Čiovo. Afterwards there will be enough time to visit the Old Town of Trogir, listed as a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site. The last evening aboard is celebrated in traditional fashion in the company of our fellow travellers and guides.

After breakfast disembarkation until 9 am. Individual travel home or extension of your vacation in Croatia.

Travelling together, by bike & boat

Guided PEDALO bike & boat trips don’t just combine two types of travel to create something new. They also bring together people who can really appreciate this special combination! People who are on the same wavelength and just want to spend as much time as possible enjoying their cycling holiday with like-minded travel companions.

On the guided group tour by bike & boat, not only do you have breakfast and dinner together on board, but you also go ashore together to explore the bike paths. The shared experiences will bring you closer together and get you right into the flow of cycling.

First-class support all round

If you opt for a guided PEDALO bike & boat tour, you won't have to worry about finding the right route, but can concentrate on enjoying your holiday to the full.

Qualified and experienced tour guides will hop from island to island with you or show you the way along idyllic rivers, winding canals and around beautiful lakes. They know the best places to stop for lunch, but also where to find the prettiest picnic spots. They will accompany your group on sightseeing tours and city walks, adding valuable tips and exciting stories about the country and its people.

With the group bike & boat tour, you get as much first-class support and pleasant company as you could wish for, but also the freedom to be on your own if you want. If you don't feel like cycling with the group, you always have the option of simply staying on board and soaking up the sun on deck.

The combination of bike and boat is becoming more and more popular. The PEDALO catalogue is extensive and varied, but spaces and dates are limited.

If you’ve been thinking about booking one of our fantastic bike and boat trips, we recommend not delaying for too long, as certain dates are often booked up quickly on many of our trips. Welcome on board! But please make sure to book in good time.
