was not a suprise for us as we used Archipelago Tours and Sime for the private tour last year also. In my experience, this type of tours very much depends on skipper you get, and Sime is one of these you'll keep in your memory forever. He looks like he spent every minute of his life alone on the high seas, but on the other hand, he was very talkative, and he had amazing stories to share. We didn't know much about Kornati NP so we gave full freedom of trip planning to Sime. The trip started in Sibenik, every early, at 08:00, and passing through St. Nicolas channel at that time of the day was a first highlight of the day was spectacular, peaceful and gracious. Way to Kornati was very comfortable as the sea was calm and form a distance, we could see our destination. First, we passed on the side of islands facing Italy, where all spectacular cliffs are, and Sime told us stories about spectacular underworld on those cliffs. First stop was on island Mana. We climbed to the top of this rocky island where are ancient alike ruins located, but acutely they were built many years ago for the one movie set. Anyhow, it was nice and the views from the top were beautiful. In the bay, we took a swim and did a bit of snorkeling, what my niece loved. We moved further driving through Kornati channel until island Lavsa where we had a drink and a swim. Thereafter, we went for a long ride to lighthouse Blitvenica outside of Kornati NP. This desolated island with 150 years old stone lighthouse and one man working there was a true surprise. Man working in the lighthouse gave us a tour through the lighthouse. Thereafter we had to the island of Kaprije where we had amazing food in the hidden bay, and oh mand it was so delicious. The last stop before returning into Sibenik was the island of Zlarin where Sime gave us a tour and we had a drink. Last part of the trip was in the sunset and what to say, just see the photos.

Denis was a really great skipper, finding lovely bays for us to swim, snorkel and explore. We stopped in Zlarin, saw the Sibenik fortress from the sea, and experienced sunset on the water before returning to Vodice. This trip was easy to arrange and Archipelago Tour Company was professional and well organised. Thanks Denis and Sime. read less

Our guide and skipper was very charming and very patient with children's questions. He had his eyes on the entire group, taking care of thirst, hunger and mood.

He knew everything about the national park and wasn't lazy on sharing the knowledge. And also we were very confident in his boat driving skills. Christian - great job!

You have enough time to enjoy both the landscape and food.

They took us to a wonderful restaurant and had very good advices about the food and wine!

This was really wonderful and I hope I'll have a chance to repeat this experience!

Do it and enjoy! read less

Amazing private tour of Kornati Excellent trip, skipper and guide - highly recommended! Amazing views, beaches and the best restaurant so far in Croatia!

Beautiful day at sea and Kornati National Park Our one trip to Kornati was fascinating,interesting and very well organised.Skipper Josip was excellent guide and he fulfilled any request we had.

Boat was fast and covered the distance easily.
Stops for snorkeling, lunch (best food we have had) sightseeing (old film set) and local village.
Child friendly for ours aged 7 & 8.
Well worth it.

En lisant les commentaires sur Trip Advisor, nous avons opté pour le tour proposé par Archipelago Tours. Quelle bonne idée !
La réservation s'est faîte facilement (un coup de fil et 2 mails échangés) via leur site internet.
Tout s'est déroulé comme prévu grâce au professionnalisme et aux connaissances de notre Skipper (très Safe dans son pilotage du speed boat, bien agréable pour nos enfants de 4 et 9 ans) et du reste de l'équipe.
Le prix de 260 euros pour la famille (2 adultes plus 2 ou 3 enfants) est complètement justifié comparé aux autres tours proposés en gros bateaux bondés et lents ( nous en avons doublé plus d'un) qui sont obligés d'accoster tous aux mêmes quais (alors qu'avec notre petit bateau de 10 personnes, nous avons pu accoster dans des endroits plus tranquilles).
Notre Captain a su répondre à nos questions tant sur l'histoire de son pays que sur la faune et la géologie des Kornati.
En résumé : à conseiller pour tous ceux qui veulent sortir des excursions blindées de touristes.
Merci Archipelago Tours

We cruised at first through the Šibenik channel, checked out St Nicholas and Jadrija and then went all the way to Skradin. On our way we had a stop to take a swim... Skradin is lovely. On our way back we stopped and spent our afternoon at the beach restaurant (which you can reach only by boat)... we had lunch there and we were chilling, swimming, sleeping until the evening. When we left it was already dark, we cruised across Šibenik channel, looking the lights of the city and the amazing city fortress... The sea was so calm (Bonaca) and this feeling of a great day at the sea, spent with friends will keep me going through the winter! Highly recommended❤️ read less
