The Trip Of A Lifetime In 2 Days
I’ve been told that “I have no time” is no longer an excuse for a globally curious traveler that is short on time but long on creativity, boldness and curiosity. As a busy, work-from-home Mum, this is often me and I know is the case for many of my colleagues. The Trip Of A Lifetime In 2 Days

Founder, Gabriella Ribeiro, has been traveling on short-burst itineraries nearly all of her life, and now travels with her own young daughter who’s already accustomed to landing with her an a random city around the world and seeing everything she can.
As a fellow traveling Mum who wants to show her son the world, I found this concept inspiring and I loved the idea of exploring a city in 48 fun-filled hours. One of my favourite 48 Hour Power Jaunt itineraries for my son and I was Dubrovnik:
DAY 1
Welcome to Dubrovnik, the pearl of the Adriatic and one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Your private transfer will collect you at the airport upon arrival and bring you to your hotel to recharge with a relaxing massage and some time at leisure.
Featuring direct access to the beach and an outdoor swimming pool with lounge chairs, Grand Villa Argentina showcases a sit-down restaurant with a terrace with panoramic sea views. The UNESCO- listed Dubrovnik Old Town is just a 5-minute walk away. The vivid Stradun Promenade, monumental Dubrovnik Walls and various historic sights can be explored within easy walking distance of the property.
Then, in the early evening, you’ll embark on a small boat to explore the Elaphiti islands. Since the ancient times, the islands were a place of comfort, vacation, and delight. All this due to well preserved nature, clean and clear sea, sandy beaches, beautiful pine forest, olive gardens, numerous promenades and footpaths.
The crew will show you hidden beaches, caves and secret places that you will absolutely love and you’ll enjoy a dinner of freshly caught seafood on one of the islands.
Enjoy the remainder of the evening at leisure.

DAY 2
This morning after breakfast, you’ll head out on a morning sightseeing experience in Dubrovnik. Meet up with your local guide who will take you to the most wonderful hidden streets of the city.
Explore the Old Town including the narrow streets, small squares and of course the popular Dubrovnik City Walls (A UNESCO Heritage site).
Then, you’ll head onwards to Peljesac for a wine tour through some of the most popular wines on the peninsula. Indulge in wine tasting paired with samplings of fresh oysters, prosciutto and cheese.
This peninsula is the largest and most famous wine region in Croatia so you’re sure to enjoy not only the tastings but the beautiful surroundings as well.
Enjoy the remainder of the evening at leisure.
