The boat ride itself is a fun adventure. We enjoyed swimming in the caves, going to the beach, and cliff jumping. Our kids (ages 13, 15, and 16) enjoyed this trip. We made great memories as a family. The guides were friendly and knowledgeable.

Really great tour. We did lots of activities we have never done before and also had time to relax too. Petra and Zoti were brilliant and made the trip fun. Would definitely recommend

You jumped, swam, explored, and conquered – sounds like a proper Vagabundo day! Thank you for your ind words... Vagabundo team

A must do!

Kaity_K, Jul 2025
This trip was amazing. We booked it last minute and weren’t sure what to expect but it was amazing! The cave tours were beautiful and such a unique experience. Our guide was Petra and she made the trip feel so safe and fun. When we were in the caves she brought a flashlight, which other groups didn’t have, she also guided us through some of the more challenging caves. The whole crew was so fun. Even though we booked this last minute for just a day trip on the water. It ended up being our favorite activity of the trip! Petra and the crew really went above and beyond to make this a memorable trip!

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Our crew is overjoyed to know you felt well taken care of. Thanks for recognizing their effort and spirit! Thanks for sharing your experience. Vagabundo team

Awesome adventure.

Super amazing time! Highly recommend. Dorean was an awesome guide and even gave diving lessons at the end.

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Thank you for your kind words! We're thrilled you enjoyed the tour and our crew's hospitality. Hope to see you again soon!

Awesome Experience

Oliver and his staff were excellent! We enjoyed their welcoming and fun locations, my son got seasick and Oliver and the other staff were excellent help with recovering him. Oliver and the staff were amazing and we would happily do the tour again.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

A great experience!

Katia_P, Aug 2024
Couldn’t recommend this enough! We really enjoyed ourselves. The tour was well organised and drinks were provided throughout. Shots were even provided! We visited the blue and green caves, Lopud island and partook in cliff jumping off Lokrum island. The boat goes slowly so you can enjoy the views, then speeds up over the waves which was so fun. This tour is great if you love a challenge and adventure, but there was always the option to just swim in the beautiful sea using masks or stay on the boat if something wasn’t for you. It is a great way to experience Dubrovnik that little bit more. Our guides Mario and Petra were amazing, helpful and had lots of energy. Young children were on our boat and they loved it. All in all a great experience! Thank you!

Going the extra step

Larissa_R, Jun 2024
Had a great time on this Blue cave safari. It was so helpful that our guide would get in the water with our small group to show us where to go, including bringing a flashlight to help guide us in to one cave. I didn’t see other guides doing the same, so that was a definite plus.

Response from Host, Jul 2024

Yes, our guides are the only one who are close to our guests all the way in the caves. Thank you for noticing. Thank you for your kind words and for choosing our tour. Vagabundo team

Magical, Crystal clear sea safari!

Mishal_B, Sep 2023
This was the absolute highlight of my trip! The crew were outstanding! The views were amazing and the snorkeling/caves were all breathtaking! I am not very fit, but it didn’t matter! I did what I could, and floated around soaking up the sunshine when things got a little too adventurous for me! They truly made us comfortable! As a solo traveler it’s always so important to go with good company, and this was amazing! Nothing can prepare you for the crystal clear water! Bring along a snorkel if you can - they had the masks but things were just magical with the actual snorkel. And bring some money for the beach - it was brilliant to have a pina colada and fries under an umbrella!

Response from Host, Oct 2023

It is so nice to hear you had amazing time with us. Your satisfaction is reason for doing this job. Thank you for choosing this tour and being our guest! Vagabundo team

A great day with teenagers

Katharine_R, Aug 2023
We had a great time! The trip was well organized and efficiently run. All of the cave stops were stunning, the boat ride was a blast, the captain and tour guides were friendly and full of info. Plus, lunch at a beach club and cliff jumping... they fit a lot in a "half day" trip! Oh, and drinks were provided in endless abundance, so that's good too :)

Response from Host, Aug 2023

Thank you for such kind words. We were glad to have you on board. We wish you everything the best in future... Vagabundo team

Beyond 5 Stars!!

Brittany_D, Aug 2023
If we could give it 6 stars, we would! This was such an incredible excursion! As a 300+ pound American woman, I’m not the most adventurous but this crew really brings it out of ya! We went into all the caves, confidently led by Christian, and we jumped off the 9m tall cliff at the Lokrum stop! Facing fears and feeling invincible! We had a wonderful lunch at Bindo on Lopud, a HAMMOCK RESTAURANT!! Crew kept us hydrated as we sailed in style on the beautiful buoyant yellow boat Mika! Unforgettable core memory trip! Would do again immediately!

Response from Host, Aug 2023

Dear Brittany! My crew was so happy to have you on board. We wish that invincible feeling will last for long... Really hope to see you again, Mika will be here for you :) Vagabundo Team

Gorgeous Island Excursion

Taz_K, Aug 2023
I had a fabulous time on this boating and swimming adventure. It was great to visit not only the Blue Cave but the 3 Green Caves as well - they were even more spectacular! Thoroughly enjoyed the lunch stop at Šunj beach on Lopud island, and made the most of the break to take a hike up to a high point and enjoy the view. The last stop at Golub Spilja on Lokrum island for cliff jumping was a super thrilling way to finish the trip. The staff on the boat were excellent, especially Ema who made me feel really welcome as a solo traveller. Highly recommend this experience!

Response from Host, Aug 2023

Thank you for your nice review and for the recommendation. We are so glad when our guests had good time with us. Hope you will come in Dubrovnik again and maybe we will see you again... Vagabundo team

Action packed

Steven_D, Jul 2023
Really cool trip, hit a lot of spots in a short amount of time. The island of Lopud was a great spot to spend two hours. Romana our guide was awesome. I wouldn’t do this if you are not a decent swimmer.

Response from Host, Aug 2023

Thank you for being our guest! We wish you the best... Vagabundo team

A great and very much fun experience

Rod_E, Jul 2023
The atmosphere, swimming the caves and the friendly staff - Laurent The cave swimming in particular took many onside of their comfort zone but there was no pressure and a lot of enjoyment

Response from Host, Aug 2023

Thank you for nice review. We are glad you enjoyed our trip. Wish you the best! Vagabundo team

Great water adventure!

Greg_P, Jul 2023
This was a blast. Boats were fast and fun. Captain and mate Emma were very friendly. We swam in caves and jumped off cliffs. They kept us moving from island to island. Some in our group opted out of certain activities (like cliff jumping) and that was fine because the boats were anchored right near the activities. We stopped for an awesome lunch up on a hill on a remote island. Probably not a good idea to take kids younger than 10 or anyone afraid of the water. If you have a little adventure in your soul don’t hesitate to book this….it’s a lot of fun, doesn’t take all day, and a great value.

Response from Host, Aug 2023

Thank you Greg for such nice feed back. We really try to show our customers the beauty of our coast and add a bit of excitement and fun. Hope to have you on board again! Vagabundo team

Exploring Dubrovnik by Sea

Ronan_M, Aug 2022
Excellent from start to finish. Nina and Mario were brilliant guides. Some really nice touches throughout the day. We stopped for lunch at Sunj Beach and there was a restaurant which had 30% off due to Sea Safari which was great. Highly recommended.

Fantastic Tour!!

NATHAN_M, Aug 2022
Phenomenal tour! Couldn’t have rated this experience any better. The sights were fantastic, and we were able to see so much in the 5 hours. We were able to stop at the blue cave, explore 3 different green caves, spend 2 hours relaxing at Sunj beach and finally some cliff jumping to finish the day. The staff were incredibly attentive, the boat ride was fantastic, and it really was a great experience. Couldn’t recommend this enough!

Do it! You won’t regret it.

Rich_B, Jul 2022
What a fun and beautiful way to experience THREE islands. The caves on Kolocep were beautiful, lunch at Binko on Lopud was a genuine treasure find, and Cliff jumping on Lokrum was a hoot, even for a 71 year old man like me!! Neno was an excellent guide and the Captain’s homemade brews were a tasty personal touch. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

Response from Host, Jul 2022

Thank you for being our customer. We try to familiarize our dalmatian spirit to the people from all over the world. The best way is with glass of our wine. :) Nourish that boy in yourself! Wish you the best... Vagabundo Team

Great Trip

Zaid_B, Aug 2021
Great way to start the day. 9am trip gave a very refreshing morning swim into beautiful spots that were not at all crowded at the time.

Highlight of our vacation

Enrico_L, Jul 2021
Tour guides were extremely friendly. Swimming through the caves was an experience we will never forget. We love the clean clear ocean here. Taking the golf cart taxi to the other side of beautiful Lopud island was really neat as well. Thank you!

Response from Host, Jul 2021

We are very satisfied you had a nice time with us. You two are also remarkable people and we give you 5 marks for guests :) Thanks for choosing us for your experience. We hope to see you again!

Actividad obligatoria en Dubrovnik

Jessica_M, Aug 2024
Todos, todas las partes de la actividad son increíbles. Ha sido sin duda la mejor actividad del viaje. Tuvimos una suerte increíble y estábamos en una lancha solo 6 personas, se formó piña y todo fueron risas y muy buen rollo. Además, nuestra monitora Petra fue una maravilla, pendiente de todo y de todos. ¡Un 10 para Vagabundo!

Incroyable excursion

Valentine_M, Aug 2024
Une excursion incroyable et très fun. Nous avons fait 4 crottes en tout dont la grotte bleue qui porte très bien son nom. Visite de 4h qui a finalement duré 5h avec des personnes qui prennent le temps de nous expliquer l’histoire de la ville et vraiment très sympa. Les bateaux sont d’environ 10 personnes donc top comparé à d’autres beaucoup plus touristiques. Je recommande a 1000% !!!

Muy agradable y divertida exeperiencia marina

Horacio_K, Jun 2024
Fue una experiencia muy agradable porque tuvo un poco de todo: pudimos nadar, y entrar en tres diferentes cuevas, cada una con sus características. Luego pudimos relajarnos y almorzar en una bonita playa y lo último fue la breve pero impactante excursión a Lokrun, con altos peñascos desde donde el que se anima puede saltar al mar desde una altura de aproximadamente de diez metros.Toda la excursión duro unas cinco horas, el tiempo exacto para divertirnos sin que sea demasiado extensa.

We are happy you had a nice time with us. Thank you for choosing our tour for your experience. Vagabundo team

Actividad muy recomendable

ROCIO_R, Sep 2023
Una atracción muy recomendable. Buenas vistas de Dubrovnik desde el mar. Emocionante trayecto hasta las cuevas. Muy sorprndente la luz de la cueva azul. Relajante baño en las playas de las islas cercanas. Pero lo mejor la atención en todo momento de la tripulación, en especial de Iva. Tuvimos que volver a otro puerto por el cambio de las condiciones climáticas y facilitó todo para volver a nuestros destinos, incluso de entregarnos en el hotel unas sandalias olvidadas. A highly recommended attraction. Good views of Dubrovnik from the sea. Exciting journey to the caves. Very surprising the light of the blue cave. Relaxing swim in the beaches of the nearby islands. But the best attention at all times from the crew, especially from Iva. We had to return to another port due to the change in weather conditions and he made everything easier to return to our destinations, even giving us some forgotten sandals at the hotel.
