What are people saying about Zadar

Mihaela_B, Aug 2026

Book with confidence 😇

Highly recommend the tour! Everything is organized to the smallest details and you can walk the entire park at your own pace, the only rule being to follow a specific path! I'm not going to talk about the National Park, as nature is beautiful no matter where you are, but the experience was one to remember The walk is quite easy for those who are used to walking long distances, the hike goes mostly downhill and the entire path is paved, covered in sand or wooden planks. I set an activity on my Garmin watch, and at the end of the tour I had about 12.000 steps (not counting my earlier walk) and 7.5km distance (without the train ride or boat tour). The included train ride is taking you from the starting point all the way downhill, through the most difficult part to climb, and from there is all going downhill towards the lakes and waterfalls, so everyone should be able to walk and enjoy the landscape. Our guide was Filip, who is very friendly, knowledgeable and takes good care of everyone in the group if needed. Book with confidence, it's worth every penny ⭐

Private Boat Tour To Pakleni Islands and Red Rocks

anish_K, Aug 2026

The Perfect day trip on the Adriatic.

Captain Mirko was amazing. He was very patient and gave us all the time we wanted in every spot. We can’t even count how many times he anchored the boat in perfect spots for us to swim and snorkel. He took us to the perfect restaurant in Milna in Hvar where we had the best Dalmatian grilled fish. In addition to sailing and swimming around the Pakleni islands, he also took us to swim by the Red rocks and various other beaches and bays. Some spots that were only accessible by boat. The tour lasted over 7 hrs. We were never rushed at any time. It was the perfect day on the Adriatic sea in Hvar. the boat was clean and well maintained. It also has a cushioned ‘sun deck’ in the front that could fit 3-4 people and a perfectly shaded area by the captain’s seat that could also fit 4-5 people. This was a much better experience than a group excursion as it was all customized to us. I highly recommend this operator. A must do experience at a very reasonable cost.

It was an amazing experience! We went on this tour with our 5- and 7-year-old kids, and it was perfect, even though I was worried it might be stressful for them. Our captain told us a lot about the island and provided everything we needed. The water was unbelievable. I can highly recommend this tour!

We had a great day on the water with Filip. He was very friendly and knowledgeable about the islands we visited and made the day wonderful. It was a nice break from the hustle and bustle of the busier city. It also worked perfectly for us as cruise ship passengers in terms of timing.

My friend and I booked this trip and we loved it!! We made stops to swim and we got to use snorkels provided for us. At the last stop we had plenty of time to eat and drink something in the town. The captain, Zara was so sweet and she always gave some extra information on the islands she drove us to. We had a great time and would love to do it again!

A holiday highlight

The trip was a highlight and also fantastic end to our 2 week holiday of Slovenia and Croatia. The communication before and after the trip was expertly managed and the trip itself allowed everyone in our small group to experience the best the islands have to offer without being amongst the touristic crowds of larger groups. Thank you to Petar and Jesop for a brilliant day. Xx

Family Trip in October

Our family truly enjoyed this trip. The tour lasted about four hours, and we covered around ten kilometers at a light yet steady, sporty pace. We made three short stops along the way, which was just right — though I’d say the pace suits someone with a bit of prior experience in such adventures. The surrounding nature was absolutely breathtaking, and our child was thrilled throughout the journey. The highlight, of course, was going down a three-meter drop with the boat — an unforgettable moment! If you appreciate active outdoor experiences, this tour is definitely worth it. Special thanks to our wonderful guides, Andrei and Matej, for their great support and energy.
