With HBO’s “House of the Dragon” set to debut next month, Sail Croatia is offering Game of Thrones fans a themed cruise exploring “King’s Landing” and the Dalmatian Coast.
The seven-day cruise departs from Split, Croatia on August 20 and visits the locations of many of the series’ most infamous scenes, including the Walk of Shame, the Red Keep, and Blackwater Bay, all located in Dubrovnik (aka King’s Landing).
Cruisers will have the opportunity to sit on the Iron Throne, explore the stand-in location for the city of Qarth, Lokrum Island, and discover Klis Fortress, the filming location for the city of Meereen.
Other scenic destinations visited on the cruise include Makarska, Korcula, Mljet, Hvar and Stari Grad. Complimentary excursions include a Game of Thrones walking tour in Dubrovnik, along with entrance fee to the Game of Thrones museum, the St. Lawrence Fortress and return Lokrum Island ferry tickets.
Optional excursion include river rafting in Makarska, buggies and kayaking in Korcula, wine tasting in Stari Grad, and more.
The cruise takes place onboard the Mali Ante, a 38-passenger yacht, that features an aft swimming platform.
