Fantastic day with family! - WOW! My family and I had an amazing time on this excursion. Our tour guide, Ivana, and skipper, Babu, were so friendly, welcoming, super fun and they provided a lot of historical info along the way. We could not have asked for a better day. We highly recommend this tour! Can’t wait to come back next year for another tour with them!

Great and intense day on the water - Tour was exceptional and intense. Everybody was tired in the end, so for small kids it's not very suitable. Also snorkeling without fins in strong currents is complicated so bring your own if you have it. Lastly and most importantly, use sun screan before getting to the boat and after every swim. Boats are going 50km/h so bring sunglasses to protect eyes from the wind.

Unforgettable Speedboat Adventure in Zadar! - My friend and I had an incredible experience on the speedboat tour in Zadar! The breathtaking views of the coastline, the crystal-clear waters, and the thrill of the ride made for an unforgettable adventure. Eva, our guide, and Dom, our skipper, made the experience even better with their friendliness - ensuring our safety and fun throughout the trip.
Highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to explore Zadar from the sea!

Excellent day, well organised and professional - Full day tour with Mario (skipper) and Eva (guide). Booked direct with Archipelago weeks before we arrived in Zadar without problem.
24 hours before our trip the numbers were too low to go ahead. We were offered an alternative which we declined. Good communication from Archipelago and they secured enough customers to go ahead.
The tour stops were fantastic. The shipwreck, cave swim and white pebble beach were the stand out favourites from us. Not sure what the fuss is about with Sakarun, it’s nice but you visit better beaches on this tour.
Really impressed with Mario and Eva particularly but also the rest of the team that helped make the day happen. Money well spent.

An Action-Packed Journey of Dugi Otok (Long Island) from Zadar - This was a really great boat tour! The smaller tour size meant that the speedboat we took moved fast between stops, which allowed for plenty of time to snorkel/swim and take in the sights.
The highlights of the trip were definitely the first couple of stops which were snorkeling at the sunken ship, exploration of the Golubinka Sea Cave (the entrance is so narrow you have to swim inside), and the swimming stop at the gorgeous Veli Žal sandy beach. This is followed by an extended stop at Sakarun beach, which is not as nice as the aforementioned Veli Žal sandy beach but does have a cafe where you can relax in the shade with a cold drink. The next stop at Restoran Momi provided an opportunity to have an excellent, filling meal by the sea. The final two stops were a quick boat ride into an old military naval base and a half hour stop in the small island town of Božava.
Overall, I liked that the variety of stops provided by this tour as well as the speediness of the travel between stops. Many thanks to the Zadar Archipelago team!

Great experience! - Great experience with the archipelago Zadar group. Thanks to the guide who was very friendly, attentive, and informative.
With this excursion you will go diving near a wreck, swim in a cave, visit the most beautiful beaches, but also discover the Veli rat lighthouse and the Bozava village.
Each stop is sufficient, you will spend between 45 minutes and 1 hour 30 minutes at the different stops, which gives you time to enjoy but also to visit as many things as possible. The outward and return journeys are the longest but are not unpleasant given the landscapes we passed through. Perhaps consider taking food with you for those on a small budget because the restaurant offered on the excursion costs between €20 and €35.
Plus: if it's a windy day, remember to take a sweater or kway because the journeys between swims can get cold!!
Thanks again to the team!

Avoid this company. - Avoid!
We planned our trip around this boat day as we only had 3 days in Zadar. The company cancelled at 9pm the night before, we were due to leave at 830am. All tourists booths were closed and online showing no availability for the next day as too late to book. No apology or care from the company, after getting in touch ourselves they told us it was due to the wind.
The waiter at the restaurant we were at helped and called a friend to get us another boat. We had a wonderful day visiting all the spots and the wind was no issue.
This was clearly cancelled last minute as they didn’t sell enough tickets. Horrendous customer service and able to ruin your holiday plans at the last second.
For the same price you can rent a boat from ITAI and have a wonderful day with lovely staff.
Highly recommend looking elsewhere and not wasting money on this, as the refund won’t come through for 5 working days meaning we are out of pocket on holiday.
