On the final evening of one of my cruises, a guest—an experienced cruise professional himself—pulled me aside. He had spent the week quietly comparing his luxury trips with ours.

“My cruises were life-changing,” he said, his voice gentler than I’d heard all week. “Everything was top-notch. But you have something very special—something that’s not easy to create.”

He gestured toward the deck: guests hugging, wiping away tears, exchanging numbers, and promising reunions. It looked more like a family parting ways after a long-awaited gathering than a group of strangers who’d only met seven days earlier.

“It’s the Croatian way,” I replied. “We welcome people not just into our homes, hotels, or boats—but into our hearts. Once we break bread and sing together, you’ll never be a stranger.”

This is the essence of our cruise experience: a journey into the soul of Croatia—and into your own.

Sailing into the Soul of Croatia

Croatia, the Way Locals Live It

I’m Tajči, a full-time music artist and coach—and once a teen pop star in Croatia. At 21, I left my career and moved to the United States to grow, to find my voice beyond the stage, and to discover who I was away from the spotlight.

Croatia lives in my soul—and I can’t wait to share it with you

Life brought me many blessings: three incredible sons, a meaningful career, and years of touring the world. But no matter how far I traveled, I always held onto the deep, restorative ways of self-care I remembered from my Croatian summers.

In Croatia, you’re invited to stay present through life’s simplest joys—a glass of wine poured by a friend, the sparkle of sun on the Adriatic, the melody of an old song. We make space for joy. For connection. For coming home to ourselves.

And now, I get to share that with you.

Moments that turn into lifelong memories

Two Summer Cruises. One Deeply Personal Experience.

This summer, I’m co-hosting two transformational cruises—intimate, soulful journeys designed for those who want to experience Croatia beyond the tourist trail. Especially for members of the Croatian diaspora—second or third-generation Croatian Americans—who feel the quiet pull of their roots and long to connect with the land of their ancestors.

Cruise Itineraries:

MV Paradis
📅 August 2–9, 2025
📍 Split – Hvar – Korčula – Dubrovnik – Mljet – Makarska – Brač – Split

MV Olmissum
📅 August 16–23, 2025
📍 Opatija – Krk/Rab – Zadar – Molat – Lošinj – Cres – Opatija

We’ll sail from island to island, beginning each day with morning meditation and yoga on deck, and ending the nights with live music and laughter under the stars. In between, we’ll explore Croatia’s hidden gems—its unspoiled coves, family-run konobas, rich history, and vibrant culture.

Begin each day with presence and peace

Yes, we’ll visit breathtaking destinations, but the real magic happens in the space between the itinerary. In the spontaneous singalongs. The conversations that spark over local cheese and wine mark the beginning of lifelong friendships. The deep breaths that whisper, “This is exactly where I need to be.”

Savoring life, one bite at a time

The nights are filled with music, laughter, and stars

Why This Cruise Is Different

Many travelers visit Croatia. Few truly experience it.

Wellness here isn’t just about yoga or fresh, locally sourced meals (though we offer those too). It’s about holistic renewal.

We help you slow down. We invite you to be fully present—with the food, the sea, your fellow travelers, and most importantly, with yourself. Through guided mindfulness sessions, optional coaching conversations, and heart-opening experiences, we create space for healing, clarity, and joy.

Not strangers, but a newfound family

A Personal Invitation

I created this cruise to be more than a vacation. It’s a return—to joy, to simplicity, to connection. It’s a chance to explore Croatia with a local—but also with someone who knows what it means to carry this land in her soul and rediscover it after years away.

If you’ve always wanted to visit Croatia…
If you’ve been before, but stayed on the outside looking in…
If you’re ready to reconnect with yourself in a way that feels meaningful and alive…

Croatia’s beauty goes far beyond the postcards

Come. Find yourself in Croatia this summer.
Let the sea carry you home.
