Description

A very special cruise awaits in 2022 as we are thrilled to be able to bring you our latest addition to the Riviera fleet, the magnificent MS Mendula. This spectacular twin-masted yacht, at a stately 36 metres, can easily access the wonderfully picturesque little ports along the Dalmatian coast so when you drop anchor and hop ashore, immediately you’ll be fully immersed in every destination we visit with no time wasted. Launched in 2012, this exquisite vessel offers a thrilling and authentic experience on a classic sailing ship yet with all the comfort and glamour of a modern-day private yacht. With just 15 cabins available for 30 guests, the atmosphere on board is convivial and relaxed with a touch of exclusivity – and you’re assured a first-class service throughout.

Instantly recognisable and causing quite a stir on the quayside, as you are welcomed aboard by our dedicated crew, you’ll be made to feel completely at home in your elegant surroundings. Delight in the ample and stylish sun deck where you can sit and unwind over a long cold drink and catch up on some reading or chat with your fellow sailors and take in the panoramic vistas as you glide through the glistening water. When it’s time to cool off, take a dip off the ship’s platform straight into the Adriatic’s crystal waters then back on board to dry off in the sun – once you’ve discovered this way to holiday, you won’t look back! Enjoy delicious, locally inspired menus in the informal ambience of the ship’s restaurant whilst savouring the views and nothing beats your favourite cocktail or an after-dinner coffee on the smart terrace area with plenty of chairs and tables as the sun sets.

Your comfort is assured in fully air-conditioned cabins, with stylish furniture and contemporary lighting. Wooden flooring and a gleaming superbly appointed bathroom provide a touch of glamour and a home from home experience without compromise. All cabins feature either a double bed or twin beds and are equipped with dressing table and chair, wardrobe, hairdryer and bathroom with shower, plus free Wi-Fi on board. Lower and main deck cabins feature two fixed porthole windows, whilst cabins on the upper decks have one fixed porthole and one opening window.

Cruise Line

Riviera Travel has been carefully researching and thoughtfully crafting an enticing range of European and worldwide guided tours, short breaks, river cruises and tall ship cruises for over 29 years, for the traveller looking for something just a little bit different. Riviera Travel offers a perfectly balanced combination of the 'must see' classic sights and delightful 'hidden gems' - uncovered through our extensive research of local areas.

Late last year, in the prestigious ‘Telegraph Travel Awards’, readers voted Riviera Travel the ‘UK’s favourite Tour Operator’ and second ‘Best River Cruise Operator’ Earlier this year, Which? — probably the country’s most respected consumer organization — voted Riviera Travel the UK’s ‘Best Escorted Tour Operator’ and awarded us their coveted ‘Recommended Provider’ status, the only company in this category to achieve this.

Most recently, in October 2012, at the ‘Guardian & Observer Travel Awards’, their readers voted us second ‘Best Short Break Operator’ No other travel company of any size can match the quantity and quality of this recognition, so if any other Tour Operator claims to be the best, it is just that — their claim; what we have received is the customers’ verdict.
