Amazing sailing trip for families and groups - We went on a sailing trip with Dubo today and we’re more than happy about the experience. We enjoyed the trip to the islands nearby Dubrovnik, with perfect breaks for swimming and local lunch. Our skipper Dubo was super friendly and open for any wishes and ideas from ourselves. We absolutely recommend this sailing day trip.

Hands on sailing tour - Dubo the skipper and captain took us and another guest on his racing sailboat around the islands of Dubrovnik. We had great wind and a very exciting time. Dubo made sure we all had tasks to do since sailing is a team sport. We loved getting a crash course in sailing and recommend this tour for anyone who wants a hands on genuine sailing experience. At our request Dubo also took us to the blue caves which is a must do. Thanks for a great day!!

The best day of our holiday! - Dubo made a huge effort to ensure that we had a full and varied day, nothing was too much trouble. We were able to tailor the trip to exactly what we wanted to do and where to go. The whole experience was value for money and it was a pleasure to spend time with Dubo and learn the basics of sailing a sail boat.

Great sailing experience with actual sailing and an expert captain! - Great sailing day, we were able to participate in the boat handling with the guidance of a real expert captain. The island visits were great as well as the pickup and recommended restaurant along the way. Highly recommended!

Fantastic sailing experience - An incredible experience! Dubo, our skipper for the day, is a fantastic person, knowledgeable, and flexible to make the day the way you want it. You can sail and be in control of the boat as much or as little as you like, with your choice of how much time you spend sailing, swimming, or exploring the islands. We learnt a lot of practical skills for sailing in preparation for our Day Skipper course we are studying for. Highly recommended for anyone wishing to gain some sailing experience, or to see the Elafiti islands. We stopped at two islands and explored a little, with options to buy food at restaurants or shops, or you can take your own packed lunch. The boat is a former racing yacht and easy to control. Great value.

Exhilarating trip - An amazing exhilarating trip especially when the sails catch the wind. We got to sail the boat and get really stuck in and we now feel we understand a little on how to sail. Dubo made the day, so experienced, knowledgeable, fun and patient - he’s a terrific skipper. A very personal trip we would highly recommend- thanks so much

Sailing the islands - A fantastic day had by myself and my wife. Really wanted an actual sailing day instead of the usual boat trip and that's what we had. Dupro looked after us from start to finish...... picked us up for Cavtat (for a small additional fee) and got us down to the boat mooring. We sailed a full day, stopping for lunch mid day and some mooching around the islands. Appreciate this trip a lot. Thanks Dupro and the guys we shared the day with - Great fun

A perfect day! - We had a great day! Dubo was very professional, patient and wise. He involved us in the sailing experience (lifting and putting down the sails, stirring, etc), and we had a lot of fun! We played some music and were able to bring our own drinks and snacks. Dubo dedicated the whole day to us, and was flexible when we wanted another swim, stop for longer, etc. 10/10 reccomend

Don’t do it unless you’re prepared to be disappointed! - I cannot provide any memorable photographs or experiences since our “last-day-of-our-honeymoon-excited-to-do-it-sailing-experience” never took place. After having paid/charged the full cost for my wife and myself, we attempted on several occasions to contact the “Tour Operator” (by telephone, WhatsApp and through Viator) to request a pick-up or to confirm the meeting place. I provided my telephone number, e-mail address and telephone number and address for our Dubrovnik apartment but I received ZERO response. Our Dubrovnik host also tried on several occasions to reach the Tour Operator by calling from a local number. A Customer Service representative from Viator also tried calling the Tour Operator. None of our calls were answered. After the scheduled departure time passed, I finally gave up and asked the Viator representative to process my request for a full refund. Their Customer Service representative told me that they will “investigate” and respond within 7 days. I have never posted a complaint since my reservations usually work out, but this was just flat-out RUDE to provide no response whatsoever. There are many cruise and sailing options in Dubrovnik. We read the reviews and thought that this one looked great. We’re going home with wonderful memories of Croatia, but none from sailing on the Adriatic.
