I highly recommend this trip, the food was very good, the boat ride - fun, the guide in Rovinj was the best the guide ever and everything overall was very worth the money.

Absolutely wonderful experience. The entire staff was so nice and accommodating. We were able to see dolphins multiple times. This trip could not have been more perfect and I could not recommend this trip more!

Full description

Discover Rovinj, Lim Fjord, and Red Island on this full-day cruise from Pula. Explore the history of Rovinj with a local guide as you wander around the town. Savor lunch on board in Lim Fjord, then enjoy some time for relaxing and swimming on Red Island.
You'll meet your boat, Orion-Ariete, at the Pula harbor across from Tito's Park. Once you've boarded and found a spot on deck, lean back, relax, and enjoy the ride.
Leaving Pula, take in amazing views of the city's amphitheater, and then sail along the Brijuni archipelago, making your way to your first stop at Rovinj.

In Rovinj, you will have 2.5 hours of free time, accompanied by a local guide at your wish. Get an overview of the beautiful town, explore its little streets and alleys, and learn about its history with your guide. Soak up the atmosphere of this picturesque historic town.

Once you leave Rovinj, set sail for Lim Fjord, a nearby channel famous for its aquatic life and narrow width. We might even spot some dolphins. Enjoy lunch on board while cruising through the canal, admiring stunning views of the greenery and your surroundings.

After lunch, head straight to the Red Island, where you will have another 2.5 hours to spend. Go swimming in the deep blue Croatian Sea or just relax on the beach while sunbathing before returning to Pula at the end of your tour.

This Trip was just amazing. We were accompanied with live gentle music, the girl sang beautifuly and a nice guitarist. The walk in Rovinj was beautiful and informative. The tourist guide was very interesting while telling the facts and the stories about the city. Then we had relaxing sunbathing on the Island. The food was okay. So I would totally recommend it.
