A perfect way to explore the island - The tour was truly amazing, we had such a nice time exploring the island. Dugi otok has so much to offer nature-wise, but some of the gems are hardly accessible - SUP offers a great way to explore them. A big thanks to Roko who told us all the interesting stories and with whom we had a great time! See you next year :)

A perfect way to explore Dugi Otok - The trip was the perfect way to explore Dugi Otok. There was a great mix of adventure with the SUP and relaxing on the beautiful Sakarun beach, but also some lovely opportunities to see the less touristy parts of the island. Roko was informative but relaxed so the day was chilled and really fun. I would highly recommend this tour to experience this incredible island!

Best full day trip we made in coratia! - Super nice and handsome host of the Tour. Weather conditions were not perfect, but Roko did the best to entertain us. Ist was the perfect mixture of SUPing and sightseeing. The Tour was the best Tour we did in our holidays in Croatia. Thanks a Lot to Roko! We appreciated it a lot and looking forward to come back and do the „sunset SUPrising Tour“!

A wonderful day around Dugi Otok - Roko is a wonderful tour guide to cherish your day around Dugi Otok. We loved the friendly atmosphere he created during the whole tour. We had no idea about SUP but at the end of the day all of us was doing SUP. Group size is small enough to make the most out of the day. There will also be beautiful sceneries, various SUP points and a great pizza. Totally recommended!

Amazing personalised and relaxed tour! - Perfect day touring a stunning location by a passionate local guide. This day is very undersold!! The tour is the perfect blend of paddlebording, sightseeing and with food and drink stops and even local games. If you want eight solid hours of paddle boarding then this is not the trip for you, but if you want a well organised introduction to paddle boarding in some stunning locations with relaxed visits to remote tavernas and wild swimming stops with a true cultural experience then join Vala Tours! Can’t recommend this day enough!

The trip was the most exciting part of our vacation in Zadar so far. You can really feel the love Roko puts into the organizatio - Me and my partner loved the tour. Even though it was only the two of us, Roko took his time and did the tour with us. We both were bloody beginners on the SUP but he gave us a tutorial and had much patience with us when we struggled. He showed us around different places on Dugi Otok both by foot and by SUP and we had the chance to see places away from the typical touristy sites. You get the chance to catch the spirit of the islanders and get to know why they love their country with all of its beautiful nature. Playing balote/boccia and drinking some very tasty wine was the perfect way to end this eventful day. We can only recommend this tour to everyone wanting an active vacation away from mass tourism. Thanks again to you Roko!

Excellent - We had a great day with Roko. Paddleboarding around the coast and to the WW2 tunnel, and he made it work well when our 12 year old struggled a bit in the strong current. Always felt safe. Wonderful view from the top of Veli Rat lighthouse, lovely lunch at a pizzeria and more paddle boarding around Sakharun bay. Finished with some bowls, homemade wine and apple juice. This felt like a small personal tour and Roko was a great guide. He clearly knows Dugi Otok very well and takes you to places you wouldn’t go on a bigger, busier tour. Highly recommend and very good value for the experience.
