“Really good experience, and brilliant guide! Really helpful and pointed out many things to do, see and places to eat. Good vibes on the boat with music. Spent a good amount of time on the first island and snorkelling, only criticism was the last island felt a bit rushed, only had time to grab some lunch/something to eat and didn’t have loads of time to explore but understand they have time limits and tours to get back to Zadar for. Great experience and would recommend.”
