The guide wasn't sure if we would find the pod, but we did and saw so many dolphins it was incredible! Definitely worth the experience, the water and sun set were also gorgeous. Guide was very knowledgeable and personable.

My parents and I joined this dolphin-watching tour together, and it turned out to be one of the most beautiful experiences of our Croatia trip.
We took a speedboat with a maximum of 15 people and headed out to the area where the dolphins were. Once we found them, we followed them around and enjoyed watching them swim alongside the boat.
Of course, seeing the dolphins was wonderful, but personally, the sunset was what made this experience truly breathtaking. The sky and the sea looked absolutely stunning as the sun went down.
The fresh sea breeze while speeding across the water was also incredibly refreshing, and seeing Vrsar from the sea was another highlight. It looked completely different and even more beautiful from the boat.
I highly recommend this experience if you’re visiting Vrsar. Watching dolphins while cruising across the Adriatic at sunset is a memory I’ll never forget!
We booked online, went to the well described meeting point, met Josip, who was very friendly and helpful. He guided us to the boat (pretty new, clean and much better than most of the competitors' boats) and introduced himself as the "worst skipper alive". Same as his jokes and remarks funny, but not the truth: He is an experienced skipper with a good sense for the place where the dolphins could be seen and an adequate respect for those wonderful creatures.
He explained clearly and showed us what could have been seen at this day.
In a nutshell: perfect.
Fast boat not fast. Small speed boat. 4 adults and one child in the bow and 6 adults in the back of the boat. Plus the driver. The driver said it has been windy but he has experienc and not to worry. They never told us where the life jackets were stored. Due to the waves we got completely soaked. When the driver did see a dolphin fin in the water the people in the bow saw, but all the people missed out. It was a total waste of money. The boat ride wasn’t any fun either. So just say no to the 19:00 sunset dolphin tour. I gave them the one star because the guy running everything on the dock was decent.
The guide wasn't sure if we would find the pod, but we did and saw so many dolphins it was incredible! Definitely worth the experience, the water and sun set were also gorgeous. Guide was very knowledgeable and personable.
Wauw! We’ve had such a great time! Everything was arranged perfectly and ofcourse, we saw the dolphins. We booked our tickets online and received an email with all the details where to start etc. When on the speedboat, our guide Peter told us a lot about dolphins, and that you better let them come to you, instead of chasing them, attract them. That worked out perfectly and this way we got to come very close, and shot a lot of beautiful pictures. These people know how to arrange nice trips, AND respect nature. Therefore we rate them with a 10! If you want to go and watch dolphins, book your tickets here ;)
Great experience with kids. Good captain. We went at sunset and it was so beautiful.
Big recommendation.
Really a very good boat trip. There were a lot of boats on the water, but our skipper was relaxed and didn't go where everyone else went and because of that we often saw several dolphins up close. My son was also allowed to sail/steer

Really good trip. We had some wind and therefore a somewhat troubled ride. In no way something we became unsure about. It just gave an extra dimension. Spent a really long time sailing back and forth to find dolphins. Successfully after 1.5 hours to find some... The sunset and sailing saved us not to see "many" dolphins.

Mooie ervaring jammer dat het weer niet echt mee zat.
Einde was kort helaas door het weer en er ook kinderen bij zaten.
Kapitein deed zijn best maar natuur daar valt niet mee te spotten
Niets teveel gezegd, genoeg dolfijnen gezien en een mooie zonsondergang. Goede gids, genoten van een mooie boottocht.
Wat een fijne organisatie! De speedboot ging enorm hard (aangepast op publiek) er was genoeg ruimte voor iedereen en er waren meerdere boten ingezet omdat de groep anders te groot werd. Onze schipper Peter was echt een topper!
Es hat alles super gepasst. Super freundlich. Der Skipper hat sich Mühe gegeben und Delfine gefunden. Nächstes Jahr sind wir wieder dabei.
Trotz Boots Panne , oder genau deswegen ein tolles Erlebnis….
Wir haben viele Delphine gesehen…
Und hatten jede Menge Spaß.
Nachdem da Boot leider zwischendrin defekt war .. und wir auf ein Ersatzteil warten mussten… hatten wir keinen Ausflug wie geplant,… aber der Veranstalter hatte soviel Sicherheit und Professionalität ausgestrahlt dass wir beruhigt abgewartet haben bis dass Problem gelöst war , und wir wieder weiter fahren konnten..war lustig, anders und schön .. immer gerne
Wir haben viele Delfine gesehen. Der Speedboot Fahrer (ich glaub er hieß Mattheo) war sehr nett.
Auch erklärte er uns, etwas über die Tiere.
Alles in allem, sehr gelungen.
👍👍👍👍👍👍
Absolut falscher Verlauf/ Gegebenheiten da keine private Tour wie angegeben. Somit einfach irreführende Anzeige. Man ist mit mehreren fremden Gruppen unterwegs auf einem kleinen Boot.
Positiv, das man tatsächlich Delfine gesehen hat. Guide war allerdings nicht wie beschrieben der deutschen Sprache mächtig.

Dear Dean, you had wonderfull dolphin tour, the weather was pefect and there was at least 10 dolphins around the boat. You paid 25 euro per person and you were two, so 50 euro. So you booked shared dolphin tour and there were more 6 people on the boat. After you complained that you didint get private tour, I didnt want to have discusion with you and I refunded what you have paid. Wish you good rest of holiday in Croatia!
