Visit Fort Lauderdale, a sun-soaked Florida city known as the 'Venice of America' for its intricate canal system and beautiful beaches.

Fort Lauderdale offers a stylish and laid-back atmosphere, a more relaxed alternative to some of its bustling neighbours. The city has transformed from a former spring break destination into a sophisticated and cosmopolitan hub, known for its luxury yachts, beautiful beaches, and vibrant arts scene. The ambience is one of an upscale, yet accessible, coastal retreat where you can relax on the beach or explore the city's many waterways.

The cultural significance of Fort Lauderdale is deeply connected to its stunning waterways. With over 300 miles of canals and inland waterways, the city's identity is shaped by its connection to the water, giving it a unique maritime culture. Beyond its canals, the city has a rich history as a trading post, and its arts scene has flourished, with a wide array of museums, galleries, and performance venues that celebrate both local and international talent.

Fort Lauderdale's local cuisine is a delicious blend of Southern comfort food and fresh coastal flavours. Seafood is a major highlight, with dishes featuring locally caught fish and shellfish. The city also has a strong 'Floribbean' food scene, which combines Florida's fresh ingredients with Caribbean and Latin flavours. You can find everything from casual beachside cafes to high-end waterfront restaurants.

What makes Fort Lauderdale an exceptional cruise destination is its unparalleled access to the legendary Everglades. The port's proximity to this unique ecosystem means you can easily take a thrilling airboat ride through the 'River of Grass' and see alligators and other native wildlife in their natural habitat.

Explore the heart of Split, a vibrant city built within the walls of a Roman emperor's palace, a UNESCO World Heritage site and a living museum.

Split offers a truly unique and lively atmosphere, seamlessly blending ancient history with modern-day life. The city's heart is Diocletian's Palace, an ancient Roman structure that isn't a museum but a bustling, living part of the city. As you wander through its narrow alleyways and courtyards, you'll find locals living, working, and socialising. This fusion of ancient ruins and contemporary living gives the city a captivating and energetic feel.

The cultural significance of Split is immense, primarily due to Diocletian's Palace. Built for the Roman Emperor Diocletian in the 4th century, the palace is one of the best-preserved Roman structures in the world. Its walls and gates define the Old Town, and its legacy is evident in the city's architecture and layout. The city's history is a compelling narrative of Roman, Venetian, and Austrian influences, all of which have left their mark on its distinct identity.

The local cuisine in Split, known as Dalmatian cuisine, is a delicious reflection of its Mediterranean location. Fresh seafood is a staple, with dishes like grilled fish and 'crni rižot' (black risotto) being popular favourites. Other regional specialities include 'pašticada,' a slow-cooked beef stew often served with gnocchi, and 'peka,' a tender meat and vegetable dish cooked under a bell-like dome. The food is simple, yet rich in flavour, with a strong emphasis on fresh, local ingredients like olive oil, garlic, and herbs.

Split's unique character as a living historical landmark makes it a perfect cruise destination. A great example of this is the Riva, the city's waterfront promenade. This lively area, lined with cafes and palm trees, serves as the main meeting point for locals. From here, you can sit and enjoy a coffee while watching the world go by, all with a direct view of the ancient palace walls, creating a seamless connection between the city's past and present.
