Amazing trip. 27 blokes on a stag. Staff were great and so were the drinks. We were lucky enough to see dolphins too. Thank you
Everything was great. Boat was in good condition. Advice from Paolo was good and we managed to find a little cove that we had all to ourselves for most of the day.
Had a lovely full island cruise, great and unique experience, provided by a great team our host and driver were very accommodating and kept an eye on our needs, clean and good boat with comfy sun loungers ...
I could not recommend enough! The overall process of hiring this was so seamless. There were five of us on a hen do and the lovely skipper took us to all of the best spots for the most memorable trip. ...
This rental was the highlight of our trip! Jure was our skipper and he was incredibly knowledgeable, so kind, so patient with us when we asked him to take pictures, and showed us the best spots in Hvar! ...
