Croatia · CRUISES & BOAT TOURS
Half this country is only reachable by hull. The 15 below run from a two-hour harbour cruise to a full day on a wooden boat with lunch aboard, each priced and clear about how much swimming time you actually get.
Review of the Krka Waterfalls trip from Split with river cruise, guided park walk, free time, and swimming in Primošten.
“Ante made the trip enjoyable! Croatia is commercialised for sure! 19 euro for a burger at the park is a joke!”
Swim through Dubrovnik’s Blue Cave, Three Caves, and Sunj Beach on a small-group boat tour with drinks and snorkeling gear.
“Good day trip. James was fab. Dislocated shoulder from trying to get back on the boat. If issues with pulling yourself up, look elsewhere. James was great. Very helpful and made sure we were comfortable. He gave us options to get the ferry back but it would have delayed us back to the city. He was always checking if the big waves were hurting. All round good trip”

Cruise from Dubrovnik to Lopud, Šipan, and Koločep with drinks, optional lunch, swimming time, and excellent value for a full day at sea.
“Beautiful and well organised day with Marinero (tour operator) onboard of the boat Rita. The whole crew of the boat were so hospitable and friendly. Nikoleta (the tour guide) was very helpful, knowledgeable and fun. Punctual timing, and the itinerary allowed for enough time each stop. I initially booked the tour without lunch, but paid for it later as it was worth it and convenient not to waste time while on the islands. Lunch was served after the first island Lopud. Our first stop was Lopud, beautiful island and Sunj beach was beautiful swim spot. I suggest you start there (go by golf cart) and later come back (walking some…”

Review of the Dubrovnik to Montenegro day trip, with Perast, Kotor, optional boat ride, Budva, border tips, costs, and practical advice.
“It was one of the longest days ever. The driver simply dropped us off at different locations to pick us up a few hours later. Very little”guide” energy. I felt like I was just supposed to shop. The last location should have been left out as there is major highway construction and accompanying congestion to reach it. The road was dirt and rutted for an extensive distance. Made the day way too long and exhausting. It was a small group of 6 but no attempt was made to introduce us or connect us, other than our own efforts. To tell the truth, I couldn’t even tell you one thing about…”

“I found the trip well worth the price. What kind of breathtaking views! And big thanks to the host, Ivanka, who made the trip so pleasant. She is funny, well-organised, and approachable.
