Really great boating experience
kh0000,Apr 11, 2026

5.00We walked around old town and Sanel was ATT a table selling private boating experiences. I am not naturally a trusting person especially in situations where I am obviously a tourist but he seemed honest and we wanted to rent a private boat for a tour of the islands near Dubrovnik. We set it up for the next day and we arranged for a boat to pick us up at our resort the next evening. He said he would text us information and he did exactly as he said he would. The weather started getting windier so we decided via text to change the pick up time to 10 am. His communication was accurate and timely. The boat showed at 955. The captain was a really nice and friendly young man who spoke perfect English. The boat was comfortable. He brought towels and drinks. He was careful not to dplash us too much as the water was cold so he tried to steer as gently as he could into the waves. Because I was my usual skeptical self I was on guard through the entire experience but everything was perfect and the boat ride was the highlight of our Dubrovnik experience. I suggest you trust these people and enjoy the ride. We did and it was really really great!!!
Blue Cave Private Tour

5.00We did a private tour to the blue and green caves out of Old Town Dubrovnik. During our 3 week holiday, it was a major highlight, an experience we will remember for ever! The boat was gorgeous and perfect for our small group. The tour and the caves were just amazing, and we felt safe the whole time. It was truly an excellent experience. Our driver was lovely, gave us all the time we needed. He took photos for us and even went out of his way to sail us back to our cruise ship terminal to allow us more swimming time. I highly recommend these guys for an unforgettable tour!

5.00We booked a private boat trip and honestly, it was one of the best experiences ever! 🌊✨ From the moment we stepped on board, the crew made us feel so welcome and comfortable. The boat was super clean, spacious, and perfect for relaxing. We spent the day cruising around, swimming in the clearest water, and soaking up the sun. They even arranged drinks for us, which made everything feel so special. The views were absolutely stunning, and we stopped at a few beautiful spots where we could swim and take pictures 📸. It was super fun and safe for girls group…

5.00We had such an amazing girls’ trip (6 of us) in Dubrovnik and the boat experience made it unforgettable! The whole day was perfectly organized – from the smooth pickup and drop-off to the friendly crew who made us feel so welcome. The boat was comfortable, the views were breathtaking, and everything ran seamlessly. It was the highlight of our trip, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend to anyone visiting Dubrovnik!

5.00I had a wonderful experience with Dubrovnik By Boats. We were greeted by Šanel, who took the time to explain the different options of boats for me and two of my friends. He was so friendly and put us at ease about the boat even though it was our first time driving one. We weren't really sure about hiring a private boat tour in a foreign country as tourists but Šanel really helped us out of our comfort zones and we ended up having a great day out the next day. On the day, we were picked up seamlessly and had free rein over the boat, with clear instructions about where to anchor the boat. The owner of the boat also gave us good recommendations on where exactly to go - we covered the blue caves, green caves and the sandy beach - the most beautiful I've ever seen. I highly recommend Dubrovnik By Boats! We had a great time. (Special mention to Šanel!)
