Great fun, beautiful scenery, crystal clear Adriatic for swimming and snorkelling, and Tony was a super skipper and guide!

Had a great time on this tour. Water was incredibly blue and the rock caves had gorgeous purple tinted stones. Would do this tour again if ever back in this area.
Robin_A, Oct 2025
The experience was great! Our boat captain ensured that everyone had a good experience. We especially liked the small island where we had some personal time before heading back to the starting point. It was great location and we found a super restaurant to have lunch.
Charles_S, Oct 2025
It was a nice trip. The water was choppy and very cold. I'd like to suggest that Viator make it known that booking this trip at this time of year can result in really cold water and may not be conducive to swimming.
Martin_G, Oct 2025
Great trip if you are prepared for a bit of bumpy ride. Blue cave was amazing along with three caves. You would have to be a swimmer to enjoy this strip to the full.
Corinne_G, Oct 2025
Anthony was punctual and friendly. The Blue Cave tour with Anthony was our highlight of our visit to Croatia. I highly recommend this tour.
Lousine_K, Sep 2025
Very good experience, we were picked up from our hotel and the whole experience was very well organized. Our captain Roko was great, we visited blue and green caves,
rob_w, Sep 2025
Excellent experience very well executed and good fun. Rocko the guide was very very good and helpful
Dawn_C, Sep 2025
The driver picks up close to the port, The blue water is beautiful. But the boat doesn’t go into the caves. You swim into the caves that are pretty dark. I was disappointed with that. Our boat captain was super nice. Dominic is his name. I think overall it was nice but I really wanted to see bigger caves where you could actually see good. The beach at the end of tour was ok. Pretty small w places to eat & drink. The snorkeling equipment was shared and not sanitized. We didn’t use that.
Nathalie_S, Sep 2025
Dominic was professional et fun! Nice trip! The experience was exactly as described on Viator. We enjoyed the boat trip!
Edward_C, Sep 2025
Nice captain. Breaking it down by stop: Blue cave 5/5 for 20 min (perfect amount of time), Sunj Beach 2/5 for 95 minutes, 3 caves 4/5 for 30 minutes. If you want to chill on the beach, this is a great tour, but I thought Sunj was nothing special. I would recommend a tour with less or no time there.
Jennifer_C, Sep 2025
Our group had an amazing time exploring the caves and beautiful surrounding area. Dino was an excellent skipper and we enjoyed his company. Half a day was the perfect amount of time. Highly recommend!
Raymond_L, Sep 2025
The boat tour with Dino was amazing, he was funny and very personable. The drinks were great and the caves were cool! The only reason we’re giving the review 4 stars is because they wouldn’t drop us off back at our hotel, the driver dropped us off on top of a hill and we had to walk all the way down to our hotel. If this is always the case I would suggest booking without the van pick up and just Bolt to and from the marina
Jennifer_M, Sep 2025
Anthony was both fun and professional. I would highly recommend this tour to others. The group was fantastic too!
DavidF_R, Sep 2025
The beach part was wonderful and Mark the captain was terrific...But Viator was not clear on the cave part. I thought we were going in by boat but you had to swim in. So, I never did we the blue cave.
Antoinette_M, Sep 2025
Good day trip. James was fab. Dislocated shoulder from trying to get back on the boat. If issues with pulling yourself up, look elsewhere. James was great. Very helpful and made sure we were comfortable. He gave us options to get the ferry back but it would have delayed us back to the city. He was always checking if the big waves were hurting. All round good trip
Laurie_D, Sep 2025
Ride out can be bumpy. But such a great adventure. Caves are worth every second.
Our guide, Anthony, was funny, polite, entertaining. A MUST SEA
Kathryn_W, Sep 2025
Our guide for the morning trip was James and he did a wonderful job. I was a solo traveler and then there were two other groups on the boat. James did a great job making sure we were all comfortable and knew the plan. He was really great at driving the boat smoothly on a choppier day. We had some trouble getting off from the beach because of the big waves and again, he did well managing the situation and was very patient and had a great attitude. I really enjoyed this trip and a half a day with the perfect amount of time, especially going solo.

Initially this was listed as a catamaran
small group tour. Even the photo was
of a catamaran. That’s what I paid for.
It definitely was not a a catamaran but
only a small speed boat. There were many small boats in the area so it was crowded. Our guide, Anthony was great. It doesn’t change the fact that we didn’t get what we paid for.
Michael_L, Aug 2025
Blue caves were amazing, got to the beach early to grab a great spot and the green caves totally topped off a great day
James was a great skipper and ran everything like clockwork
Would take a camera that can be used in the water to make the memories even better and make sure you use the snorkelling gear on offer - water is so clear through the masks
Tammy_C, Aug 2025
Great experience with a a few stops for swimming and exploring the caves. They do have snorkel goggles, but I can’t remember if they actually had the breathing tubes or not. I always bring my own. But they did have goggles if you needed them. And it’s definitely worth it. Safe drivers on the water and very informative. It was an excellent tour.
Nichole_N, Aug 2025
Super fun 1/2 day out on a boat. Relaxed but super fun. Plenty of adventure but also plenty of time to chill.
MARY_S, Aug 2025
Very good value for money. Small group was 10 of us on a boat. Really great fun! Definitely recommend this company.
Lacey_L, Aug 2025
Loved it! Frank our skipper was excellent, great driving skills, funny, attentive with the drinks and knowledgeable!
Loved the caves, was a bit scarey but some very friendly chaps helped me through, felt very lucky to have seen them!
Loved this trip and would highly recommend!!
Sara_C, Aug 2025
This was our favorite experience in Dubrovnik!! Our skipper, Tino, was super friendly and personable. It was a great way to see the caves and swim in the water. 10/10 would do again in a heartbeat!!! Super clean and nice boat, great size group not too big.

We had an absolutely unforgettable experience on our Blue Cave tour in Dubrovnik! The stunning scenery, crystal-clear water, and breathtaking caves were magical, but what truly made the day special was our captain and guide, Eric. He was friendly, professional, and full of great local knowledge that brought each stop to life. Eric went above and beyond to make sure everyone felt safe, comfortable, and had plenty of time to enjoy swimming, snorkeling, and exploring. His easygoing personality and great sense of humor made the whole trip even more fun. This was hands down one of the highlights of our time in Croatia, and I can’t recommend this tour (and Eric!) highly enough.
Liz_W, Aug 2025
This was a wonderful day out boating! Our guide was knowledgeable and made sure to avoid any rough wakes from other boats. The caves were beautiful, but you definitely didn’t want to snorkel near other boats as they could potentially not see you. Would recommend.
Ella_S, Aug 2025
Our boat tour with Anthony was great! We had a free drink at each stop and my boyfriend loved the music he played on the boat. I felt like we had a perfect amount of time at each place, and at Sunj beach we were able to relax at lounge chairs as long as we bought something since they had a deal with the boat tours. I’d also recommend buying a waterproof phone charger pouch to get pictures!
