Best day in 3 week trip - Full day Elaphiti Islands with Dubrovnik Boat Experience - Dubrovnik Boat Experience Highly recommend contacting Nino at Dubrovnik Boat Experience and booking a private tour. We knew we had a Dubrovnik day that coincided with a large cruise ship docking in July. To avoid the crowds I booked our family of four (16yo, 19yo, two parents) a full day Elaphiti Islands tour with Nino - it was easily the best day of our 3 week vacation. An easy and inexpensive Uber from our Abnb in Dubrovnik and we met Nino at the dock at 8:30am. He took us to a blue cave site, Sunj Beach, an affordable excellent local lunch, and visiting around islands. He catered the itinerary to what we wanted so we had time to swim, hike over Lopud, enjoy a stellar meal, and just hang out on the water as family. Best of all - somehow he got us to each location 30-60 minutes before other boats arrived so we felt like we had each place mostly to ourselves, and could then leave when it started to get busy! Talking to Nino was great as well, as he is a local and was open to telling about his life and experiences growing up in coastal Croatia with its changes over the past few decades. Highly recommend booking with Nino - his rate was one of the most affordable for a full day, the Quicksilver 675 is very comfortable, and communications with him via WhatsApp (+385 98 322 201 ) were easy.

wonderful experience, - This day will remain in our memory for a long time. Our skipper showed us caves that are really fantastic, some of them are worth exploring. In some caves you had to dive to visit them, it was exciting and a lot of fun. We visited some bays and we couldn't stop admiring such crystal blue sea. The skipper organized lunch for us in a restaurant that is in a quiet place with a beautiful view and a very tasty lunch. Me and my friends had a wonderful time.

Unforgettable boat day with Nino - Nino was just amazing! We started the day visiting the blue and green caves. For the rest of the day we just relaxed and Nino sailed us to calm down where we could snorkel and chill. He even arranged lunch! Couldn’t recommend him more! 👍🏼 Thanks Nino!

A fantastic private boat trip around the Dubrovnik Islands with a knowledge, kind and caring captain - Nino is a very kind, considerate and knowledge man and he made us feel as ease as soon as we stepped on his beautifully kept boat. Our Children 6 and 3 years old absolutely loved him and he catered the trip to the ours and the children’s needs to ensure we had the best experience from our day. You can really tell he is a father with his kind and caring nature. We loved our tour of the islands and especially the stops at Lopud and Sipan for launch. We could not recommend Nino and his tour highly enough. Thank you for an incredible day.

Private boat tour around Elaphiti Islands - We had a wonderful day on our private boat tour around the Elaphiti Islands. Nico our skipper was very welcoming and informative, giving us lots of information on the various parts of the Islands as we went around. The weather and scenery were fantastic and it was lovely being able to do everything at our own pace. We had a lovely refreshing swim by the Blue Caves on Koločep Island. Drinks at Beach Sunj on Lopud Island. Then lunch at Hotel Bozica on Otok Šipan Island on his recommendation and the food was excellent. Would highly recommend this experience. Best day of the whole trip!

Great experience! - We took a family private boat trip to islands and caves outside of Dubrovnik and loved it. The skippers were great, were very open to doing whatever we wanted. It was a great experience. They explained well how to have a great experience in the caves!

Beautiful day trip - Nino, the skipper, was an absolute delight. We booked a full day with him to visit the three islands. We went snorkeling in and around the caves, had lunch on Sudurad in a wonderfully sunny and picturesque location and finished by visiting the sandy beach on Lopud. We are still buzzing from the experience and would do it again at the drop of a hat.
