Overall rating
Natko was super friendly, professional and made our trip extremely comfortable inspite of ‘not so great’ weather. I would strongly recommend using Natko’s services.
We had a really good time with sailing, sightseeing and swimming. Natko pick us up and dropped us off nearby our apartment, which was really convenient.
My wife, our dog Phoebe, and I spent an incredible week with Natko on his boat Maslica—we wished it would never end. Maslica is a beautifully maintained boat, equipped with everything you need for comfort and convenience: hot water in the outdoor shower, a Nespresso machine, a Weber gas grill, a microwave, and even a TV (which we never turned on!). Beyond the comfort she offers, Maslica is also a real performer at sea, easily reaching 7–8 knots in moderate winds. Natko is not only a skilled sailor but also a wonderful person. From day one, it’s clear how capable he is—always considering every possible scenario to keep us safe, while making sure we had the best time sailing. His talents go well beyond sailing: he’s also an excellent fisherman and grill master. The best calamari we had on our trip came fresh off his grill. He knows all the best spots and was always happy to stop wherever we wished, even making sure Phoebe had her nature breaks. Natko wasn’t just our captain—he quickly became our friend. Before long, we were sharing inside jokes and laughing until our sides hurt. I honestly couldn’t recommend this experience more. You’re guaranteed to have an amazing time with Natko and his boat Maslica.
Such a memorable and fun day for our entire family! Natko helped us plan a wonderful itinerary and was a most gracious host with a beautiful sailboat. So much more value to go with a small group and have a unique experience- highly recommend.
We had a fantastic day out on the water. Our skipper, Natko was warm, generous, friendly, and fun. The boat itself was immaculate, and he took us to some great, swimming spots we never would have found on our own. One of our friends got some skipper instruction, which made the experience. The floating beer glasses were a brilliant touch too! We couldn’t recommend him more highly.
What a wonderful time we had. The captain was fantastic!!!! The boat was beautiful and Natko made everyone feel comfortable. We can’t say enough what a wonderful day we had. Thank you again for everything Natko!
Family of 5 had a wonderful day sailing with Natako who was absolutely perfect skipper and host. We loved the sailing and whole experience was 10 out of 10. Highly recommend. Thank you
We had a great three days at sea taken to some lovely places to swim. Welcomed on the boat and had a very nice BBQ cooked for us on the first night
We booked a family sailing trip (2 adults and 2 children, aged 7 and 11) in late August 2025, and it truly exceeded all our expectations. The boat was fantastic — equipped with everything we could possibly need: a SUP, snorkeling gear, fishing rods (big and small), a TV, and even super high-speed internet! But the real highlight of our trip was our Captain, Natko. What an incredible person! He is professional, knowledgeable, and at the same time so friendly and approachable. We had wonderful conversations, and the kids absolutely adored him. He made the whole experience feel safe, fun, and unforgettable. Together, we planned each day as we went and discovered some stunning coves around Brač and Hvar. Even on the last day, when the weather turned and strong winds (24+ knots) picked up, Natko still managed to find a sheltered spot so we could enjoy one last swim before returning to Split. Thanks to him, we ended our journey not only safely but with a real sense of adventure. This was an unforgettable trip for our family, and we are so grateful to Natko for making it so special. We will definitely be back — and when we do, it will certainly be to sail again with him.
Our group of 9 people from Canada had an amazing day! Natko’s boat was spacious and very well maintained. We all enjoyed the fun and relaxing day on the water around the beautiful islands of Croatia! Thanks for hosting 😊
We had the pleasure of sailing with Natko as our skipper during a recent trip to Croatia, and we could not have asked for a better experience. Natko is an exceptionally knowledgeable and skilled captain who went above and beyond to make our journey both enjoyable and safe. He welcomed our 5-year-old daughter with warmth and enthusiasm, introducing her to sailing and making her feel like a valued and respected member of the crew. Despite some challenging weather, Natko ensured we explored as many beautiful coves, charming towns, and great restaurants as possible—always prioritizing safety with his solid judgment and deep experience. I also greatly appreciated the sailing advice and wisdom he shared with me, including best practices and techniques for mooring and anchoring. We are very grateful to Natko and would highly recommend him to anyone seeking a superb skipper and host.
The boat was incredible but the highlight was our captain. Natko was thoughtful and made the trip unforgettable from the first moment. He loves what he does and went above and beyond to make the experience unforgettable. Great memories for the whole group. Highly, highly recommend. Thank you Natko!
Trip of a lifetime. Natko was so accommodating and hospitable. We had such an amazing day, exploring different private bays and swimming and snorkeling. Would 100% reccomend
Amazing experience - went with me and my three friends. Took us to Brac to swim for 4 hours and then solta for a few as well. Wine and water was offered and plentiful. Coffee is offered as well. We had so much fun and got to help sail. Bluetooth speaker was offered so music was blasting. Would definitely recommend to have a fun boat day.
The boat was exactly what we could expect from the description in the Click and Boat website. It was very well equipped to sail, for the leasure, with fishing equipment, swimming equipment, SUP paddle, etc.. everything we needed. We were welcomed 5 stars and we enjoyed every moment of our vacation. First time on a sailing trip for some of us, Natko is a great capitain, we felt in security every minutes. One goal of this trip, personnaly, was to learn more about saling, I had the best teacher I could dream of ! Thank you Natko! We all recommand Natko and is boat Maslina !
We had such a wonderful time sailing with Natko for 4 nights across beautiful wild bays and beautiful small towns. The boat is in great condition, very clean, and was very spacious for my husband and I. Natko became like a friend to us, and was hospitable from the moment we stepped foot on the boat! He greeted us with drinks and snacks, and was the most easy-going, friendly skipper to have! He taught my husband to sail, expertly navigated us through the Croatian waters, and even helped us catch a fish! We enjoyed our dinners together off the back of the boat, the Croatian beers, and sharing stories and laughs the entire trip. We'll see you soon Natko!
We were very delighted with the one-day trip. Thanks to the skipper for the organization, attention to us, goodwill. We really liked it and we will definitely come again on this boat! We recommend it!
We had an amazing time on the water with Natko! Even before our booked date, he was extremely helpful, recommending activities in Split and helping us book a second boat for our rather large group. On the water he let us sail when the breeze came in and gave great advice. Overall, he ensured that we had a perfect day and great vibes while on the boat. If we come to Croatia again, we won't hesitate to book with Natko again.
Everything was perfect! Thanks for a great trip!
Great time! Natko was an excellent captain
We had a great trip with Natko. He is great company, designed a great trip for us, and taught us how to sail like a professional! We visited some hidden gems and suggested great restaurants…most days we finished off with a shot of local liquor…we highly recommend Natko and his boat and will be back soon!
Natko was a very professional and nice skipper. We had a wonderful day. Would definitely recommend him
We had a perfect day on a beautiful yacht with Natko who was attentive to everything we needed. What left us most impressed was his calm and supportively enabling approach to our wish to sail the boat ourselves. He knew a perfect place to drop anchor and provided us with snorkels for swimming. We had an absolutely unforgettable day.
Natko is really nice and good Guy. He teach you how to sail and he chills with you during the day. Is was a the best dat of our holiday.
Being on this boat and meeting Natko was a highlight of our trip. He treated our party of 6 (4 adults and 2 kids) like we were his family. He brought us to secluded bays to swim and supplied snorkeling equipment and goggles. The boat was clean, comfortable, and in great condition. It was like sailing with an old friend. Anytime I go back to Croatia I would do this trip again.
Had the best possible time on this boat. I would highly recommend this to many more people.
absolutely lovely day, and Natko really was the perfect host. would definitely do again.
We had a very great 2 day charter with Natko. He is a real professional, providing the best suggestions for stop-overs. He was constantly monitoring the safety of us and our 4 kids. He picked us up from our hotel, and we sailed to Hvar with a sleep-over on anchor in a quiet bay. Boat was nice for 6 guests to sleep over.
Thank you Natko for this very pleasant day on board, sailing between isolated coves.
How can I describe our week spent on the boat with Natko? We left this week with stars in our eyes. Everything was perfect. Natko is a golden skipper. He gave us excellent advice, excellent addresses, and he organized a tailor-made program for us day by day based on our expectations. He is vigilant and makes sure that the children are comfortable and safe. He had an excellent rapport with our children. He makes us feel at home on his boat. It was an unforgettable week for our family. Thank you! We recommend him without hesitation.
Natko is an excellent host, and we spent some incredible days on his sailboat enjoying the sea, nature, and islands. We were traveling as a family (4 people) in Croatia and rented Natko's sailboat for 3 days and 3 nights. It was a wonderful experience! Natko was super kind, generous, flexible, respectful, and very responsible in terms of safety and professionalism. It's clear he loves what he does and has a wealth of experience. He was always willing to please us and helped us put together an itinerary based on our preferences. He gave us recommendations and shared knowledge about Croatia and sailing. We definitely recommend him!
We had a great time with Natko, a wonderful day, and Tchikita was delighted. We look forward to seeing you again when we return to Croatia.
We had a wonderful day on the sailboat Maslina with skipper Natko. Communication beforehand was prompt, informative, and very friendly. We were picked up right in front of our apartment. The boat is superbly equipped, Natko greeted us with a welcome drink, and throughout the day, he fulfilled our every need and made us laugh with wonderful surprises. The highlight was the fish we caught! Thank you so much for this wonderful day, VIDIMO SE!!! ILSE
Natko the owner is a fantastic host. The communication during and after the booking is professional. He takes you to the most beautiful places around Split and adjusts his schedule. He provides a delicious welcome drink and you can also bring your own food and drinks. There is always a supermarket nearby and otherwise Natko will help you. We were with a group of 9 men and there was more than enough space both inside and outside. Conclusion great boat and captain to rent.
A wonderful experience!! Spectacular, it exceeded our expectations. A special mention for Natko, the captain and owner of the sailboat: Simply excellent, it makes the trip magical!
Natko was a great boss. Always attentive and proposing the best plans. It was a pleasure, highly recommended.
Natko picked us up from our accommodation and took excellent care of us all day long
Everything was great, the captain was very friendly and the route was beautiful.
Thank you very much for the vacation on a wonderful ship. Only positive emotions. I advise everyone!
Very nice skipper/owner. He came to pick us up in Trogir. We took wedding decorations to the restaurant and then took photos on the boat. It all lasted until late at night. No problem for Natko. Thank you. See you soon ??
Everything perfect and the skipper Natko expert and very helpful. Thanks Natko!
Thank you for the wonderful day!
