Minali – Australia

It was a lovely day out on the water. I had thought there might be more opportunities to swim along the way, however the blue cave and Lopud were the two main swimming stops. It was plenty of time to explore each location and we did not feel rushed at all. It would’ve been good if we had a bit more commentary about what we were saying as we were travelling around.

Tanisha – Australia

This was a really fun day at sea, our guide was lovely and the family duo made it more fun too, we were provided some breakfast snacks of bread, cheese and meat which was really nice after the blue cave swim, drinks on offer were beer, water, coca-cola and fanta through the day which was a nice touch. Really enjoyed each stop, plenty of time to explore, have a snack/lunch and enjoy each place as they are quite small villages/towns at each stop, worth the experience if you have the extra time while in Dubrovnik and really recommend doing a small boat tour like this, it was well planned out so we just missed the big groups and it allowed us to have more freedom and time to do more highly recommend booking on this one, the only criticism is there is no signage in the morning to say which boat to go to, so I was a bit flustered starting the day off but that was gone once I got on the boat
