Perfect!! Communication from Ivan was perfect, the boat was easy to find, everything about the boat was explained and the boat was fantastic- it had everything you need. If you are thinking of hiring a boat, do it, and do it with Ivan 5 Star!

We had a great day at Kolocep and Lopud islands with Ivan's boat. His communication was great. We met him at Sunj beach and used the complimentary sunbeds and parasols while we had a break. Snorkeling the Kolocep caves was fantastic!

Ivan and his colleague made the rental process so easy - we booked that morning and were out on the sea an hour later . Easy communication and everything as promised . Our first time without a skipper - it was easy and felt safe (although we underestimated the time it took to get to Lopud - the colleague did tell us this was the case ). Ivan gave us free sun beds at his beachside restaurant and looked after us well. A lovely touch. I would definitely recommend Ivan and his colleague.

Ivan and his team are super friendly, very helpful, relaxed and professional. The small Boat we hired is perfect for accessing the islands and attractions that you just can’t get to by land. It’s also perfect if you like to get away from the big crowds of the tour operators. We had a fantastic day and would highly recommend Ivan and his business to anybody. Thanks guys!

Ivan was fantastic. The price was super affordable considering you have a private boat for the whole day. It was the perfect size for two of us however it could comfortably fit another two people for sure. We really appreciated the extra touches like the cool box and the booklet containing the map and driving instructions was super helpful. We’d never driven a boat before but it was absolutely fine. We got a bit unlucky with the weather and got caught up in a nasty storm at one point but it’ll make a funny story for the future and the rest of the day was absolutely dreamy. Petrol was also very affordable (20 euros for the whole day) and Ivan’s communication throughout the hire couldn’t have been better.

Most memorable day of our holiday. No experience needed at all and you have the freedom to go to whichever island you like, and stop for however long you like. They explained everything really well, gave us a map, an ice box with ice, some goggles and frisbee etc. Never felt unsafe at all. Got to use the sunbeds on Sunj beach for free as a benefit of hiring the boat. I would definitely recommend hiring one of these boats instead of doing a tour. Loads of shade on the boat as well so never felt too hot.

5/5 We had a beautiful day enjoying Island of Kolocep and its caves. We had a really relaxed timetable with stops in two caves and late lunch in the town of Kolocep. On way vack we had also a swimming stop. This all took some 7-7h30mins. Boat and guys were great. We even had a slightly bigger waves on the way back, but Pasara was acting really well and we felt safe all way!

Wow!!! Why everyone doesn’t rent a boat in a place like this is something I’ll never understand. Ivan’s boat came with absolutely everything you could ever need. Snorkels, ice box, life jackets, anchor, ladder, everything. There’s a map with suggestions of cool places to visit like the blue and green caves which we did. It’s perfection when you hire a boat because you don’t have all the tourists in your photos. We even were offered free use of the sun beds on Sunj beach on Lopud island. Which is beautiful and peaceful. Ivan and his family run a lovely restaurant/bar there that serves really good cocktails with some special recipes courtesy of his brother who runs the bar. The experience was seamless and Ivan was very good with communicating and clear on everything. We had to reschedule the hire due to poor weather and this was done with ease too. I honestly recommend Ivan’s boat to anyone visiting Dubrovnik. The freedom on the open water just made our whole trip a spectacular one. You won’t regret it.

I spent an incredible day in Croatia renting a boat with Ivan. We toured the islands of Kolocep, Lopud, stopping several times at beautiful spots, even the beach of Sudurad, all indicated in the little booklet provided by Ivan. Initially, we were reluctant to rent a boat for a whole day, but it was definitely worth it, especially as it takes about 1 hour and 15 minutes to reach Lopud. I was a little apprehensive, having only sailed once before, but Ivan and his team explained very clearly how the boat worked, which put me at ease. I'd also like to mention that I made the booking quite late in the evening for the following day, and Ivan's responsiveness in accepting the booking was incredibly fast. Within five minutes, he contacted me on WhatsApp and gave me the location of the boat. His efficiency and speed of communication made the experience even more enjoyable. If I go back to Dubrovnik, I won't hesitate to choose Ivan again for a sailing experience. An unforgettable day, thank you Ivan!

It was perfect. Ivan and Peter are great!!! The explanations are easy to understand in English and you have a cooler with ice, a mask, a balloon... the best of the best. We took the boat from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and visited all the beautiful islands of Dubrovnik. They are the cheapest!! Go for it!!!

The boat is really great, all the items to make the experience unique are provided (map, masks, games, fridge). Ivan and the team are available throughout the rental for any questions. We were 5 people plus a medium-sized dog and we were very comfortable. I really recommend renting Ivan's boat if you want to experience an unforgettable day and visit the beautiful islands.

Very good communication, Ivan responds quickly and is very helpful. There was a short and understandable introduction to the boat and then he showed us the best route in the manual so that you can see everything. He also invited us to the sandy beach of Lopud and offered us a parasol and loungers there. The boat was easy to operate and therefore suitable for beginners. Snorkeling equipment and a cool box with ice were on board. We were very satisfied with the overall package and would do it again at any time.
