5.00I would give 10 stars if possible! We went out on the half day trip and Boris is an exceptional guide with excellent attention to safety throughout the trip. The highlight was the wealth of information he was able to provide us about the area and Croatia. His passion for the environment and culture was evident. Homemade sweet treats and Grk wine to finish off. I would highly recommend this trip!!!!

5.00We had read many good things about Boris but instead we had a guide named Andre. Andre is in his 20's, soft spoken and very knowledgeable about the islands we went to and their flora and fauna. The water is so gorgeous and the three different islands we went to were lovely. We stopped at one island where we drank wine and swam. All in all, a great experience!
