Dominic was awesome, checking in with everyone, playing good tunes and always on hand with a beer (awesomely cold) or soft drink.
Although the weather was not the best and the sea was choppy, the tour went ahead and they slightly altered the itinerary. We appreciated this as we would rather visit some different caves than have the tour cancelled. The speed boats are great and we had so much fun on the water. Music is playing and drinks are included! The caves are really cool and it’s a unique experience. The only downside is it would be better to have a longer experience with more time on Lopud, as we only had time to eat and not for swimming
Really great excursion, Rocco was friendly and communicative. Super flexible and had a wonderful day on the water!
This is a must do during your trip. The green and blue caves are gorgeous and Sunj beach was perfect. If you’re lucky you’ll get our skipper, Armin too! He was great fun :-)
Captain Erik was good. He made the best of it. But the owner chose to not cancel the trip when the season were VERY rough. We got pounded on the rides and could not get to all the planned stops. Bad business decision putting people at risk over cancelling and giving back our fees.
Response from Host, Sep 2026
Thank you for your review. The sea was somewhat choppy that day, but the conditions were not considered unsafe for operating the tour. We have been operating boat tours for over 20 years and have transported more than one million passengers without a serious safety incident.
Around 90 guests joined our tours that day, and we received numerous 5-star reviews from guests who experienced the same sea conditions. We fully understand that different people have very different levels of comfort on a boat. What may feel unsafe to one passenger can simply be normal choppy-sea conditions to an experienced professional crew.
Safety decisions are made by experienced captains based on actual sea and weather conditions, not on an individual passenger’s personal comfort level. Therefore, we strongly disagree with the accusation that we chose “profit over safety.” Had the conditions been considered unsafe, the tour would not have operated.
We are nevertheless sorry that you personally did not feel comfortable and are glad that you recognized Captain Erik’s professionalism.
How good! Awesome boat trip with Nikola as our boat driver. He showed us some great spots and gave us the best caves to swim through and jump in from. Time on the beach to chill and get some food too
Fun, fast. 3 swim sips including hour on the beach for a snack. Drinks at each stop David brill (& sexy skipper 😂😂). Definitely recommend! Bit of wading required to get to 3rd stop.
An amazing trip!! A great ride out to the caves and what an experience at the Blue Cave!!
And Sunj beach was lovely - shallow and sandy with a great beach bar.
We really enjoyed this Blue Cave boat tour with Rocco! The meeting point was easy to find with the instructions and all three stops were great. It is noted in the description but be sure to bring your own towel. It was nice to have masks provided to explore a bit under the water in addition to the caves and the stop on the beach with access to snacks and drinks (separate purchases) was the perfect mid trip stop. Even though all the sites are busy with many boats, we appreciated being with a smaller group on our boat and Rocco took care to rearrange the order of the stops to try to hit the caves when they were slightly less crowded. All around a great day and would recommend this tour if you want to get out on the water and explore while visiting Dubrovnik!!!
Armin was a fantastic driver and guide. He was able to maneuver the boat into the best location for our snorkeling experience. He was attentive to our needs and questions, is easily understood, and his contacts at Sunj beach saved us some money. He promised that that his playlist only had good songs… and it did! Request Armin and you’ll have a great experience.
Great day to be on the water. Go to swim in several caves. Armin the tour guide was outstanding and very good at taking care of the passengers on board.
This is not a snorkeling outing. They had fun noodles and masks. Snorkeling equipment was not provided. Our captain had a foul mouth also. Would not recommend
This is great way to experience Dubrovnik and it’s gorgeous coastal waters. If you enjoy swimming in buoyant clear warm salty water this is for you
The guide also makes or breaks a tour and Armin totally MADE the tour. He is warm engaging competent and funny. You are guaranteed a good tour on his boat he looks out for a wide range of guests and ensures they all fare well. I would do the tour again and again
Such a fun afternoon! A great way to see the Caves with a lovely time at Lopud Island at the end. Armin was a great “captain”!! A very nice & fun guy who made the trip 10/10. 😁
Trip was so fun and beautiful! Perfect way to spend the day in Dubrovnik on the water. Nikola was the best captain and made our day.
Amazing experience, thank you David
The sites were exciting and the fast speed boat was just invigorating
Wonderful experience! Something that was important to us was to find a kid friendly adventure and this was it.
Thanks to Nikolai our skipper for taking such good care of us.
I had a great time on this tour with David. He was an excellent host who made the trip a lot more fun.
Armin was amazing. Great music, good time, and a lot of fun! Refreshing drinks on board too and floaties/noodles if you want too. Great experience!! And beautiful water.
David was an amazing tour guide gave us a great tour and would do this again.
Family loved every minute
Nice trip in smaller motorboat/group to two caves and Lopud island for relaxing. Despite the small group size, dont expect a very private time, since the sites are highly visited by several boats and companies. Cold drinks, good music and a nice aftenoon with the family.
Highlight of our trip - it was enjoyable for all. Leon and his brother were brilliant. Definitely recommend
Armin was great. Perfect 4 hour trip to escape the heat of Dubrovnik and get to see some of the small islands and sites. Small group tour with masks, drinks and a short stay at a sandy beach. We really enjoyed our time.
Take a dry bag with you and be a confident swimmer. Captain Erik was AWESOME. Really good guy. Took great care of us and seemed to be a leader among his peers. There were 6-8 boats in the "fleet", each with 6-10 people. Ok. The water was a little rough but it's the ocean. The caves were unique but they were a little crowded. Being a small boat owner I was paranoid out of my mind with the number of people and boats (and props in the water). The beach was fun. Not fancy. Drink and food prices at the beach were comparable to the mainland. Take a dry bag because you have to jump in and swim/walk to the beach in water up to 5' deep. I had a yeti dry sack for a few phones and Euros but if you want a towel you'll need a drysack. The cave were something you don't see every day. We booked this last min because another tour was cancelled and we were able to get in. We were on a cruise ship and I was a long but easy walk around the port. Best part was meeting some really cool guys from Australia and Poland.
Was a Really great tour!
Erik was above and beyond:)
We had the best time! The caves were Beautiful! Water so clear and blue!!!
David did a great job making the entire day fun and memorable. His personality and sense of humor, combined with the incredible sights of the caves and time to relax on the beach, made the trip more than worth it. Highly recommend!
This experience was awesome! Roko was a fantastic guide and really worked hard to get us into the best spots at each location on a windy day. Even though my wife and I weren't traveling with children, Roko made sure to accommodate the young families that were on our boat. We were provided with plenty of water, beer and soda. Tip is not included and says so in multiple places around the boat so suggest bringing cash.
Brilliant boat trip. Caves were amazing. The beach we went to was beautiful. Music and drinks on the boat were good too. The boat driver was really nice too and very knowledgeable and friendly. Def recommend and would do it again.
First, our captain Eric was quite the tour guide. He made for a fun trip. The conditions for our trip was not ideal. There were some strong wins that made the crossing to the islands a bit difficult. Overall, he did a phenomenal job, managing the boat and the conditions. No easy task, considering the size of the vessel.
As for the trip, we had a great time. Eric played host and provided us with refreshments after the first stop. There was ample time to enjoy the different sites. Although the vessel is a bit on the smaller scale, there was a group of 14 aboard. Initially, I thought that was a bit much, but it all worked out and everyone had a comfortable seat or Sunday area to enjoy the excursion.
Days later, we experienced another excursion, which can only be categorized as a “cattle boat.” It was one of the worst excursions with over 50 passengers on a larger boat. That made for a truly negative experience. This excursion on the other hand, was much better, with just the right amount of passengers as not to make for an unsafe trip.
Definitely a great time and ask for Eric!
The boat tour was amazing. All the locations we visited were gorgeous and would definitely recommend it! Roko was a great skipper. He made the whole tour so much fun!
We will definitely come back again.
