From the moment we were welcomed onboard to the time we reluctantly said goodbye, this trip was outstanding and a memory we’ll never forget. The scenery was breathtaking, the service exceptional, and most importantly for a peaceful holiday, our kids loved every moment. Especially snorkelling in a secluded little bay we found. No charge for the fabulously simple snorkelling gear, which was a lovely touch. Lunch was simple but super yummy and the slices of watermelon after the last island visit were very welcomed after spending the day in 32 degrees’ heat. My only tip is - unless you enjoy lying down in the sun and impersonating a Californian raisin - skip the walk to the sandy beach, as it’s packed and, in our opinion, not as pretty as the port/bay you arrive in. We loved this trip & couldn’t recommend more highly. Big thanks to the wonderful crew, too.
My partner and I booked this boat trip while on holiday last week and was not disappointed. The boat was amazing, I think it is a replica of a Columbus ship. The crew were very helpful and we had a commentary with what we were passing and the history which was really interesting. We stopped at 2 islands, Sipan and Lopud. Sipan was a very small quiet island where you could visit the church or relax on the beach which is what we did, we stayed here for around an hour and a half. We then had lunch on the boat which we absolutely loved! You could chose from chicken or fish and there was pasta, potato salad, cold meats, salad, bread, rice, a big selection. After lunch we arrived at Lopud which was a bigger island and we was recommended to get the golf buggy to the sandy beach on the other side of the island which is well worth going to (we could stay here for around 4 hours). When coming back to the boat, there was fresh watermelon for everyone whilst we headed back. We was very impressed w
The boat ride itself is fantastic. The captain and guide is very knowledgeable and provides an excellent explanations on things to do on each island. You are given plenty of time on each island, maybe too much, and have plenty of opportunities to explore. The only negative is that the vegetarian option is very limited.
My husband and I did not enjoy this trip very much. It was advertised as 3 islands with snorkeling. We visited 2 islands and there was no snorkeling. We spent way too much time at both islands but especially the second island (4 hours!). There wasn’t enough to do at either island. The first island we saw most of the people from our boat just sitting around at the cafe near the port.
