Hmm...we can’t seem to find this place. Please check the spelling, or choose another location.

Get picked up at your hotel in central Dubrovnik, hop in the cozy air-conditioned vehicle and head to Gruž, the section of Dubrovnik where the new port is located. Meet your professional skipper and crew, and then board the sailboat for your day cruising around the sun-kissed Elaphite Islands. Grab a seat inside or on the deck and don’t be shy about helping yourself to a soft drink or a glass of locally made wine, as the boat begins to sail out of the harbor. 

Your first stop is Koločep Island, where pine forests meet citrus gardens and the Adriatic Sea. Hop off the boat to explore the island on your own and be sure not to miss the late-medieval churches and the 600-year-old manor houses. 

Return to the sailboat and ship off again until you reach the Island of Šipan, where there are more 15th-century and houses to discover. Take a walk around the verdant island, the biggest in the Elaphite archipelago. 

About an hour later, head back to the boat and set sail once again, this time for Lopud. Enjoy lunch on the boat as you cut through the dazzling Adriatic waters. On the menu: fish, chicken or veggie fare. 

Once in Lopud, dock Šunj beach where you can lounge on the shore for a while or go for a swim in the revitalizing waters. Take a stroll around Lopud Town to get a glimpse of island life before returning back to Dubrovnik. The tour’s conclusion is being dropped off at your hotel after a relaxing day of island hopping.

Really good overall day and staff really friendly on the boat, beautiful islands etc. Only slight downfall was we had paid for drop off back to our pick up point but the driver was a little rude and made us get off the shuttle in the old town giving us a half an hour walk home.

Excellent tour with enough insight given for each of the islands. The meal was excellent and the crew was very friendly and professional. The only downside was a bit of congestion for the shuttle back to our hotel. Not a big deal though.

Yogesh J

An excellent cruise that takes you to three lovely islands. The views are fantastic wherever you look, with the Adriatic Sea on one side and mountains on the other. One falls in love with the quiet charm of the island and the coastal areas you pass by. The lunch, which was served on the boat, was delicious. It was a medium-size boat with about 30 people on board. So you get to know most people and can enjoy their company while relaxing in the gentle breeze. We found it to be a very enjoyable cruise and would highly recommend it. Croatia is a very beautiful place indeed.

Fun day in the sun

Overall enjoyable experience. We were walked from our lodging down to the port where we boarded a 25 seat boat. The people who helped with the initial check in really didn't speak to us that much (which was different from the over-the-top customer service you get in the US). They were in no ways rude but just didn't really acknowledge us. From there, the day did improve. We were offered drinks once the boat started moving. You stop at 3 different Dalmatian Islands and spend 1-1.5hr on the first 2 and closer to 3 hours on the last one. Lunch was served and was actually pretty good. I would definitely do this excursion again if given the option!

It was a nice day out. We visited three islands. The stop on the first island was a bit short would have loved to go swimming, the second one slightly too long and Lopud Island was perfect for having an ice cream and go swimming. The food served on the boat was delicious! It was an enjoyable end to my trip to Croatia.

I must say that when I booked a cruise, I did not expect to rock up to a small boat over filled with people. It was quite unacceptable and some patrons actually got off the boat. Nevertheless, these things are what you make of them. The driver of our boat and tour guide had quite a fun loving nature about him and because of this we really enjoyed the day. The beaches I could not flaw - they were picturesque! , They do however see the tourists coming and charge absurd amounts for things that you wouldn't expect, but this is normal when on vacation anywhere. Be sure to give the golf cart rides a go when visiting the last island, that'll be sure to give you a rush!

Unfortunately, the weather wasn't great which slightly affected our trip. Our first impression of the boat wasn't good but it actually turned out ok. The islands are nice and some interesting aspects. Food and drink on the boat was plentiful and the 'skipper' cooked us the nicest fish we have had in a long time! Overall a really fun day!

3 islands, Koločep, Lopud and, Šipan all with subtle differences. Packed in like sardines, it was a very social activity even as a solo traveller as the seating directions make for conversation. The meals were very good, choice of fish, meat, chicken or vegetarian all barbecued up and delivered to the boat for consumption. Free drinks of water, lemonade, red wine and white wine helped loosen tongues and made for a very enjoyable day on the water.

We loved Lupod which was the first island we stopped at. We took a 10 golf cart ride to the beach side of the island and found a fantastic sandy beach , no waves and warm water.Two beachfront restaurants served food and drinks with one restaurant offering 2 for 1 drinks . .Plenty of time to relax and enjoy this great large cove. Lunch -fish was tasty .We had a fun group which made sure the wine was flowing freely. The other two islands were small and unremarkable with some shops and restaurants.

Despite the pick up being half an hour late the overall trip was worth the money. The weather was good but due to a prevailing wind we were only avle to visit two islands, missing out on Sipan. This was disappointing but did not detract from the rest of the day. My choice of lunch was chicken/salad with plenty of fresh bread. Unlimited local wine and soft drinks were available. The boat ride back was bumpy, to say the least, due to rough seas with everyone getting soaked. However this added to the enjoyment. A group of about twenty people from all around the globe who were friendly and food company. All in all I would highly recommend.

FUN day and would recommend it to get a flavor of the other islands that aren't as popular. There is little to do on these islands but being able to see and be transported to another island that is less touristy was nice.

Really enjoyed this-because of the weather the order of the islands got changed which worked out very well. On Sipan we wandered up the road out of the port and stumbled upon a vineyard and olive oil producer Family Danicic- fabulous- one of the best Merlots I've ever tried. The other islands were great to explore and there was plenty of time. Loved it.

The crew was great, capitan and mate were super fun, lunch was pretty good. We had fish, not sure what kind of fish but it tasted good. Alcohol was cheap, so if you're ok drinking water and cheap wine you'll be fine. My biggest issue with this tour was the boat was not as listed in description. In fact 3 other couples on the trip agreed that picture that Viator had up was not the same that we were on. We only ended up goi g to 2 islands, supposedly the winds were too strong. Overall it was good for the money.

Beautiful islands. Really peaceful. The sea was a bit rough so we only got to 2 of the 3 islands but still a worthwhile trip.
