Great kayak experience - A wonderful way to spend 4 hours on the water. Despite the unexpected turn in the weather, we had an amazing time kayaking around a couple of islands and swimming/snorkeling in a cove. Pjero was an excellent guide and made sure we stayed safe and gave us background/history on the area. I highly recommend this tour if enjoy kayaking or thinking you will enjoy kayaking

best holiday experience - It was just an amazing tour. My partner and I had booked the day before and to our great delight we were the only ones there, but despite this, our guide kept the tour to just 2 people. He told us the important things to know about the techniques at the beginning and we were on the water. Even with zero experience we had kayaks that were easy to control with life jackets. During the trip we stopped numerous times to talk to our very nice guide who told us a lot about the country, tourism, economy, so the tour was not stressful. The 4 hour tour was an unforgettable experience, I recommend it to everyone!

Amazing experience in Pakleni Islands - Pjero was a very knowledgeable and friendly guide, and we had a great time exploring the islands with him. My partner and I didn’t have any prior experience before, and Pjero took the time to walk us through the basics of kayaking while at the same time ensuring that our trip was safe.

Super day in kayak - Amazing activity! Pjero was an AMAZING tour guide and teacher, he told us a lot about the Islands and even taught us a game with stones.
The kayak was super cool to do as you can explore Island you can only arrive with boats and you can also do snorkel.

Must do in Hvar - This was the highlight of my stay in Hvar! Pjero was a wonderful and knowledgeable guide, pointing out and explaining the history of various islands around Hvar. We also stopped at two quiet and relaxed beaches along the way to rest and go for a swim. I had a great time and would highly recommend!

Great way to explore the paklinski islands - A chill kayaking expedition to one of the beaches on paklinski. He took us to mlini which is a great beach and not as crowded. He was very helpful throughout the entire trip, our kayak had a minor hiccup with the rudders and he fixed it pronto! We felt very safe sea kayaking for the first time.

Awesome kayaking and snorkling on the Pakleni islands - We really wanted to experience the Pakleni islands via kayak and this tour didn't disappoint. Our tour guide was incredibly knowledgable of the area and the nature and history and made sure that we had a good time. We ended up having a private tour cause it's early season but weren't charged extra and honestly had an incredible time. The water was a bit cold but it didn't stop us from snorkling! Don't hesitate if you have the chance to do this activity in Hvar!

Sea kayak tour - Despite how windy it was Pjero made the tour feel safe and we still got to explore several of the islands around Hvar. He also took lots of amazing pictures throughout the tour, which was just an added bonus. Highly recommend for the adventurous crowd!

Great day kayaking - Hvar is a beautiful place to Kayak. Pjero was a friendly confident guide who took our small group for a wonderful paddle around a nearby island and to two beautiful swimming beaches. Would highly recommend

Sea Kayak Splendor - I never thought that a sea kayaking trip could be so perfect however Pjero changed my mind😎! My husband and I had the most spectacular 4 hours out on the Adriatic Sea that you could possibly imagine. We shared a 2 person kayak and could have each had our own however it was much easier with him paddling and steering. Highly recommend the double kayak if you are going with your spouse! The sea is very calm and there is never a worry about the kayak turning over. You have water proof storage in your kayak for your valuables and I highly recommend bringing a big bottle of water which you can get for 70 cents at a local store nearby. The scenery is spectacular and Pjero take short stops along the way to explain the various islands and history. Your first stop is on an island with the most beautiful private beach. Only a few other people and crystal clear water where you can swim and snorkel. Absolutely no tourism here🏖️. You then kayak some more looking at beautiful islands and calm gorgeous sea! Your next stop is on another island with a few more tourists but not crowded by any means. More swimming and snorkeling in the crystal clear waters. At various times Pjero takes pictures and he sends them to you at no charge after the trip. After the 2nd island to paddle back to Havar and only wish you had more time when you have finished. Awesome trip and remember to leave Pjero a nice tip😊!
