Absolutely incredible day on the Adriatic - I had the most incredible tour with Tony, Luka and Julian! The entire crew was absolutely outstanding and very knowledgeable. The boat was truly beautiful and had more than enough space for all people on board. We were so lucky to spend the day and visit incredible stops like the blue caves, stiniva cove, blue lagoon and komiža, vis. We stopped for lunch at a delicious restaurant which had the best food we ate in Croatia! The tour felt like a luxury experience and we felt like the crew accommodated our group’s needs. They were flexible and even allowed us to stay at certain spots for longer. The majority of the day was spent on the boat but we had ample time to swim in the spectacular Adriatic. If you are looking for a relaxing day at sea and want to see all that Croatia has to offer, book this tour!

The best boat trip - I recently enjoyed an unforgettable boat trip that was nothing short of spectacular! From the comfortable seating and stunning views to the knowledgeable captain who shared fascinating insights about the coastline, every moment was a delight. We stopped at a picturesque cove where we could swim and snorkel in crystal-clear waters, surrounded by vibrant marine life. The attentive crew made sure we were well taken care of, providing refreshments and ensuring our comfort throughout the voyage. I highly recommend this experience for anyone looking to explore the beauty of the sea!
