Spend a day touring Kornati National Park, one of the most untouched places in Croatia. Home to more than 100 islands and cliffs, the area seduces visitors at first sight with its natural beauty. You'll make stops to swim and explore, and enjoy included breakfast and lunch.

During the tour, you will stop for 3 hours to go swim and explore islands at two separate stops. Then relay as you are taken on a tour around the park, checking up the dramatic karst-limestone formations that tower around you. In the middle of the day, you will also be treated to lunch.

Very nice trip, plenty of time to check out the beautiful places by yourself, and a nice boat ride. The guide was funny and nice to speak with, and we had a very good day. Nice chance to see some dolphins too if you are lucky. We have had a great time.

Well, it will teach me not to read the small lines. When I got on board, I was told I had to pay an extra €16 for entry to the national park (because the €60 fare didn’t include that). 60€ for breakfast (but all drinks out of the water, which really tasted bad, were at the expense of the customer) and lunch included, very summary lunch, composed of a small coleslaw, a fish fillet and a chicken fillet... The ride is nice. There is nothing to say, it is beautiful. But it’s a bit long and the swimming/exploration breaks are very short in the end. I had the feeling that I was fooled

Our family had an amazing time visiting Kornati National Park with Skipper Ivan as our guide. He knew all the best spots, including breathtaking cliffs and stunning views. We felt safe throughout the trip and even enjoyed a coffee break on one of the islands. A highlight was exploring the ruins on Mana Island, left from a movie filmed 30 years ago. Ivan made the experience unforgettable, and we highly recommend this tour!

Then sincerely run! We did 8:30 - 18:00 on a boat for 2 stops of 1:30. I'll let you do the math. At first it places us to be sure not to leave any free space except that at the end of the first stop people come back anywhere and the meal (infamous an old coleslaw with a fish full of bones and chicken without sauce or anything) As people sit at ease (5 on a table of 8) I found myself eating on the side of the boat without table with my 3-year-old daughter. I didn’t want to make a scandal so I went to the staff on board to ask them where I can eat decently and there they were busy, which I understand but in the end my daughter eats with a plate on her knee as you can. Sincerely if you pay more to go there faster boat can have more time on site and enjoy by having a good time do it. Overloaded boat, meal more than baclé, time on site almost non-existent, at the end I would have known I would have preferred not to board
Well organized, beautiful ride

Timely organization , beautiful places and correct parking time to enjoy them. Only two flaws The struggle at lunch to be able to sit down given the small seats , to avoid eating standing on the pier, and the lack of a Guide to at least say what we were seeing / where we were going, not even a map showing the route taken, simply. Friendly staff, except for a slightly older, very rude and nervous member who insulted anyone, including children, in Croatian.
Very good experience

Boat was very crowded. Trip to Kornati was 2.5 hours. We were there just over an hour, which isn’t enough time to do both the walk up the hill and the beach. We then sailed while we ate lunch for an hour to the salt lake, which was nice but again no time to do much. The meals were edible but super basic. Very little explanation, so not a tour in that sense. Not recommended.
