In today's episode, our group gets settled into our beautiful motor yacht and begin biking some of Croatia's most stunning islands, like Korčula, Mljet, Brač and Hvar as we boat and bike our way from Split to Dubrovnik.

We end our tour in the UNESCO walled city of Dubrovnik - it's a magical vacation!
