We had an excellent half day kayak tour with Boris. It was a spontaneous idea of ours to go on a kayak tour and we were lucky that Boris could set off with us the next morning. Since it was off-season, there were only two of us. Boris is really a nice guy and a very personable guide who was able to tell us a lot about culture, history and nature in the area. It was much fun to paddle in the area of Lumbarda and Korcula and we really enjoyed ourselves a lot. It was the best decision to book this tour and it is definitely worth the money. It was the highlight of our vacationExcellent tour, we enjoyed it very much. Boris is very kind, professional and experienced guide. He knows a lot about local history and cuisine, gave us o lot of tips and information about Korčula island. We hope we will meet him again on some new adventure around Croatian islands.

It was one of the best experiences in Croatia. Boris is an excellent explainer and knows lots about the history amd why this place is so charming. If you plan on staying for longer in Korcula, you should book this tour in the first day. You’d look at the island different and will be able to truly get its uniqueness. I thought that kayaking will be much harder, but he makes it easy and has lots of patience with the ones that are slower. He also prepared a small picnic with local wine and traditional cookies. It was amazing. Such a great day!We had a really great time during this tour. It was not a simple kayak tour, but also a nice insight into the local culture. Boris gave us a lot of explanations about the history of the region, the culture, the nature etc. He was very adaptable and friendly. Defintetly recommand it.
