A well-organised and enjoyable tour. Our guide, Andro (hopefully I have spelt this right!) was great. Very chilled out and funny. He gave us several short breaks from paddling to tell us interesting things about Dubrovnik and the local area. He was very attentive and made sure everyone had a great time. Thanks, Andro!

Would definitely recommend this tour! Ivan was awesome. He had great knowledge of the city and history and made the 3hr kayak tour fun with a good pace. Also the thought of wine and crackers at the end helped keep the hanger at bay.

Unforgettable experience. Pre instruction was well explained. Safe. You are always with the team and the instructor. You are given free time to snorkel in the cala with many fishes

Our guide N was fantastic, he gave us lots of information about Dubrovnick. The kayaking was fantastic with fantastic views, we loved it and would definitely do it again :)

Fantastic experience. Our guide, whose name I have unfortunately forgotten, was funny, personable and knowledgeable. Highly recommended.
