In Dubrovnik, Silversea’s guests will wander back in time through one of the world’s most spectacular medieval towns, accompanied by the famous Dubrovnik Guards in period dress, visiting the 15th-century Revelin Fortress for canapes, drinks, and performances from some of Croatia’s best entertainers. The sailing concludes in Athens (Piraeus) on November 16.
