    Beautiful sunset, kayaking tour. The tour guide, Andre, was very kind and knowledgeable. He took us on tours on each island. We also met the owner, Boris, who went above and beyond to help us on the tour, but also with restaurant choices and where to visit. The trip got two thumbs up from our eight and 10-year-old kids who also said that they had the best food and drinks. They really made sure to account for everyone, and go at the perfect pace to keep our family together. Many many thanks for an amazing experience!

    I absolutely loved this tour!

    The best experience I’ve had on Korcula. Paddling in azure waters between between the islands, Boris generously sharing his knowledge of korcula’s history and gastronomy. And the sunset picnic with a glass of Grk - all a dream!

    I loved this experience. A relaxed, active and exciting way to explore the stunning island of Korcula. Our guide was knowledgable, accompanying and had some great conversation. Highly recommend to anyone!!

    We're so glad you enjoyed your tour! Your review means a lot to us. Hope to see you again soon.

    Highly recommended!

    Excellent! We had booked to go on the sunset tour, but unfortunately the weather was rather stormy so we arranged to go on the morning tour instead. We visited three very pretty islands and Boris taught us a lot about the local history and culture. We also sampled some local wine (made by his father in law) and pastries (made by his wife Ivka). The kayaking itself was at a gentle pace and, as novice kayakers, was well within our abilities. There were plenty of stop offs along the way, including an opportunity for a swim. Communication from Boris and Ivka was great.

    Boris was great. My husband and I kayaked solo with 2 other women. The 5 of us explored 3 islands and were out on the water for a total of 3.5 hours with a picnic at the end. The whole tour lasted from 4:30-9. Boris was very knowledgeable about the area, provided a lot of great historical and current information, and was EXTREMELY personable…he asked us all about our lives and we learned about his. Sharing a picnic and some Grk at the end of the tour felt like spending time with friends. Highly recommended for a nice evening in Lumbarda. Although we had a bit of wind, the ride was not too rigorous for us as we are very accustomed to kayaking at home.

    The best tour we've been on as a family!

    DeLane_D, Jun 2024
    As a family, we all agreed that this kayaking tour with Boris was the single best guided tour we've experienced! Boris' historical knowledge--combined with his kayaking expertise and his effort to connect with each guest personally--made this an A+ tour! From island to island--Boris made this tour enjoyable and effortless. We ended with a sunset picnic--complete with locally-sourced goods---absolutely an amazing evening! We would recommend this tour to anyone--when we asked our teenage boys to rate our trip--they gave it a 15 on a 10 point scale! A ringing endorsement, indeed! Thank you again, Boris--an amazing evening for our family!

    Scenic beauty, fun, delicious snacks and cool facts!

    Chiara_K, Jun 2024
    This was a fantastic excursion! My dad and I greatly enjoyed seeing the beauty of the islands and sea through this kayaking experience. Boris is a great guide, who caters to everyone’s experience and keeps the group together. He has a wealth of knowledge that he shares on each of the three islands we visit. He even brought us delicious local and homemade bread, cheese and Grk wine. We loved his wife’s special Lumbarda cakes. A true gem of an experience. Highly recommend!

    Amazing sunset kayak trip

    Karen_M, Jun 2024
    Boris was very knowledgeable about history of the area and Croatia broadly. He was also personable and tailored trip to our needs. The combination of walking, kayaking, history and yummy snacks was great! I would highly recommend this sunset kayak trip and would do it again.

    Beautiful way to start my day!

    Sandy_R, May 2024
    Boris is an awesome guide. I originally signed up for the sunset but due to limited people signing up I was contacted and asked if I could do the morning tour. It was actually really nice and we got to learn a little bit about the different islands as well as try some homemade desserts and wine. If in Korčula I recommend trying this tour.

    A perfect mix of kayaking and exploring local islands.

    Sharon_W, Sep 2023
    This was an awesome trip, a perfect mix of kayaking to and then exploring different islands. Boris our guide gave us interesting local information which made the tour so much more than just a kayak tour. We ended with the most delicious canapés and wine all locally sourced which we ate after a sunset swim. A perfect trip - highly recommended.

    Fantastic trip

    Else_S, Jul 2023
    This was a fantastic trip, the combination of the padling, rhe guiding and the wine and food taste was exelent.

    Memorable experience

    Linda_P, Jun 2023
    Boris gave an amazing kayaking tour filled with the history of Korcula & surrounding islands. His personal stories also brought the local culture to life. To top it off, his (and his wife’s homemade women& pastries were a lovely ending!

    Simply spectacular

    Martin_M, May 2023
    The experience was built around Boris. If you want a stellar tour guide who will give you a great experience, this is your tour. Boris was enthusiastic, positive, great to chat with, knowledgeable, and very helpful. He gladly picked us up from our condo. We toured several islands including the sites of rock quarries, the monastery, and ended up on a small island where we had food. Boris brought home made wine and his wife baked goodies while we watched the sunset. This is an excursion you will love if you have any interest in being outdoors and learning about Lumbarda.

    Fantastic Experience

    Hazel_G, Aug 2022
    We absolutely loved our tour and Boris was an amazing guide. We couldn't recommend this more! Definitely was a highlight of our trip.

    The best tour in Korcula

    Holly_H, Jun 2022
    If we could give this 6 stars, we would! We had an amazing time on the kayak tour with Boris. We toured 3 islands with Boris explaining the detailed history of the islands. At the end of the tour we stopped for a picnic which included wine from Ivka’s family vineyard, homemade cake and bruschetta from locally sourced produce. Boris also dropped us back into Korcula town which was very helpful for us getting back. We had the best time and would highly recommend!

    Entspannt ist anders

    Kevin_S, Aug 2024
    Wir haben uns sehr auf die Kajaktour gefreut. Sonnenuntergang mit Picknick war das Motto. Uns wurde vorab per WhatsApp mitgeteilt das wir schon um 16.00 Uhr da sein sollen, mit der Begründung das die Tage ja immer kürzer werden. Vor Ort dann vom Guide mitgeteilt, stellte sich raus das die 2 anderen Teilnehmer ihr Kreuzfahrtschiff rechtzeitig erreichen müssen und der Start der Tour deshalb vorgezogen wurde. Wir sind anpassungsfähig, kein Thema! Aber belügen lassen müssen wir uns nicht. Das Kajak fahren war dann wie eine Sporteinheit. Nix mit entspannt über das Meer schippern.... Wir haben den Sonnenuntergang dementsprechend nicht gesehen, ebenso war die Tour auch noch vorzeitig beendet. (Kreuzfahrt Touristen) Wirklich schade, da hätten wir uns auch einfach selbst ein Kajak mieten können... Der guide selbst war sehr nett, hat viel zur Geschichte und interessante Hintergrund Informationen gehabt. Auch die Häppchen und der Wein waren wirklich gut, danke hierfür!

    Response from Host, Aug 2024

    Hi David and Kevin, I am very sorry that you were dissatisfied. We indeed start our Sunset tour at 16.30 by the end of July and from 16.00 from the first of August. Yesterday was the 31st of July and we wanted to start earlier to have more time. Guests from the cruise ship booked the tour around 12 o'clock and I have sent you the message in the morning already. So we didn't lie. It is something that we do not do. We respect our guests way too much to do that. It is true that we made a mistake accepting guests that had so strict return hours and because of that your tour was a little bit less relaxed than usual. We are very sorry about that and we will not allow it to happen again. We discussed this situation and have sent you the full refund as we want our guests to be completely satisfied with our services. With kind regards, Boris

    Un tour que debe hacerse en Korkula
