Brilliant activity. Tommy the guide was insightful into the history of Dubrovnik. Trip lasts about 2 hours and involves a swim in a nearby cove. Highly recommend.

We had a wonderful afternoon kayaking with Dragan- he was extremely professional and knowledgeable and we felt very safe and looked after. He kept a comfortable pace so everyone of different fitness levels could keep up the pace. The stop at the cove was a lovely break to relax and enjoy the water with snorkels. We also had a stop in the water where Dragan gave us lots of historical info about the old town of dubrovnik which was super interesting! we would highly recommend.

Got a warm welcome - clear instructions at the beginning and throughout the trip. Got help getting into the kayaks then more clear safety instructions. My daughter is 14 years old and has achondroplasia ( dwarfism) and was helped getting out at the cave for snorkeling as it was a bit choppy. The water included was welcome at the stop and the snorkeling was fun and plenty to see. Good views and local information. Good pace for us and we all managed to keep up. Really enjoyed this as a family. All had an amazing time 👍 Big shout out to out guides/ instructors who guided one at the front and the other keeping an eye on those at the back. Be prepared to change in the street afterwards but up out of sight and take a towel to change under unless your hotel is near by. Easy to find. Thankyou to our guides - Mike and Ivan. Great trip made our day 👍 Thankyou 👍

We had the best time with Ivan. Really informative guide and he was super lovely. It was great to see old town from a different viewpoint. Definitely recommend if you’re looking for a fun activity away from the crowds!

The mighty Dragon and Chris were excellent. Such a great experience. Good work out but they kept at a reasonable pace for all. They both had great tales to tell and fantastic knowledge of the area. Highly recommended.

We had such a great experience on our 2 hour group kayak. Dom and Matt were great guides, very friendly and knowledgeable. All the equipment was provided, and the technique explained very clearly and with good humour. Would highly recommend anyone to do this!

The kayaking was fun and the guide went slowly to keep everyone together. He told us a little history about Dubrovnik and gave us time for taking pictures. The cave/beach we went to was very pretty and snorkeling there we got to see lots of cool looking fish! The water was such a beautiful clear blue and you could float in the sea water without treading water or anything. Lovely rocks to sit on in the sun as well at this spot and the starting bay location is between the outside of the walls of the old city and the fort which is gorgeous and has several scenes from game of thrones take place on the dock nearby. Overall: 100% recommend if it’s a nice day out and even though we went when the water was supposed to be pretty cold it wasn’t bad at all and was refreshing after all the paddling.
