Magical Sunset Sail on a Beautiful Wooden Ship - I absolutely loved this experience! As someone who has a soft spot for old wooden sailing ship replicas, this tour in Dubrovnik was a real treat. The galeon itself was beautiful and full of character, and sailing along the coast during sunset made it even more special. The views of the sea, the islands, and the city were simply stunning.
What made the tour even better was the storyteller on board. She guided us through the trip in such a fun and engaging way, mixing history, legends, and humor perfectly. It added a lot of charm and atmosphere to the whole experience.
A small tip for anyone who tends to get motion sickness: the most stable spot on the ship is in the middle, especially just behind the decorative steering wheel where the storyteller stands. The front and back of the ship move up and down more, and the sides sway a bit more as well.
Overall, a wonderful and memorable way to see Dubrovnik from the sea
Highly recommended!

Spectacular sunset away from the crowds - Stunning way to see Dubrovnik from the sea, learn som history of the city while gently sailing on this old Galleon. Sunset was spectacular as well.
Crew are very friendly and you get a glass of sparkling wing to enjoy was well.
We were staying at the the hotel where the ship is berthed (Konoba Galijon, Mokosica) and got a ride back - just us and the crew for an hour!
Great value for money

Amazing! - We absolutely loved this boat ride on the galleon - the scenery is lovely but the sunset truly is stunning on the water and over the old town of Dubrovnik and such a beautiful memorable experience. The staff are super friendly and our host had a great sense of humour. The prosecco served was also really nice!
This was a real highlight of our trip and would highly recommend anyone who likes a bit of history and sunsets!

Gorgeous sunset cruise - This was an amazing cruise. We went further out than expected. The captain that gave the history of Dubrovnik was very good and kind to the children too. Would highly recommend this tour for visitors.

The most beautiful sunset, excellent crew and nice music. - An interesting story from the "captain" from the 16th century. Worth the money. Great music, crew and fabulous sunset.

Lovely sunset cruise with a chaotic beginning. - Once we got on board, the voyage was fantastic. A bit disconcerting to be at the pick up location 15 minutes before, as directed, and have no signage, representatives, or means to contact anyone while waiting to see if the ship would arrive. On board there was a discussion of the history of the city and maritime history. There was a glass of bubbly wine included. Other drinks available for purchase. Views of the city were beautiful and we sailed around Lokrum island.
