A smaller-ship way to see the Adriatic

This seven-night sailing travels from Dubrovnik to Venice on an intimate sailing yacht with space for just 148 guests. The route mixes big-name favorites like Dubrovnik, Kotor and Venice with smaller coastal stops that are harder for large ships to reach.

I like this one for travelers who want Croatia and the Adriatic to be the focus of the trip, not a huge ship packed with onboard attractions. Late stays in several ports give you more time to actually enjoy the waterfront after the daytime crowds thin out.
