Explore Mljet National Park, Odysseus Cave, Lopud, Šipan and Koločep on a fast, small-group boat tour from Dubrovnik.
“We had a great time. The guide was awesome and the caves were amazing. Glad we got to experience this trip.”
Speed through the Adriatic from Dubrovnik to Mljet, Odysseus Cave, Lopud, Koločep, and the Blue Cave on a lively small-group day trip.
“Our day trip to Mljet was absolutely amazing, a highlight of our trip. Seriously, if you don’t mind being on a speed boat (which means fast speeds and feeling the waves), book this day trip over any other of the larger boat trips. You start the day with a stop at Lopud, head over to a cave on Mljet to swim, get over 2 hours exploring Mljet, and then some more swim stops on the way back to Dubrovnik. We had the perfect amount of time at Mljet as we got to ride the 6 mile loop path through the park, get some lunch, and simply take in the views.…”
Review of the Mljet National Park speedboat trip from Dubrovnik, with island lakes, cycling, Lopud, costs, timing, and practical booking advice.
“The island itself is beautiful and worth seeing. The tour itself is somewhat advertised falsely as an E-bike tour when the bikes themselves are not included in the tour price (35 EUR per person). The boat that takes you out to the island is a large banana boat with uncomfortable seats and the ride takes close to 2 hours one way. The tour also says it includes drinks but we weren’t offered a drink at any time. So the tour price basically paid for an uncomfortable boat ride.”

Take a private Mercedes day trip from Dubrovnik to Krka’s waterfalls, Bacina lakes, and an ancient monastery, with an optional Ston dinner stop.
“It is a 3 1/2 hour drive from Dubrovnik to Krka National Park, through Bosnia and Herzegovina. Once there, you ride a boat across the waterway into the park area, debark and then walk the trails to see myriades of waterfalls. We were there during a massive heat wave and, since it had not rained in a very long time, the decrease in the water levels was quite evident, but still spectacular. I recommend bringing a bathing suit because you can swim in many parts of the park where the waterfalls are. It was very crowded June, July and August are always that way, they told us, with thousands of…”
