      After Šibenik we go further down the estuary of Krka to Prokljan lake and down the canyon to the foot of Skradinski Buk and arrive in Krka National Park at around 11.30am. There you will have a break for bathing and tour of the national park – visiting watermills, Skradinski Buk, hydroelectric power plant Jaruga, restaurants, souvenir shop and relaxing. With its seven travertine waterfalls it is a natural phenomenon. National Park Krka encompasses the part of the most beautiful river flow of Krka and the lower flow of Čikola river. National park abounds in natural as well as cultural and historical monuments. Among these it is worthy to mention a Franciscan monastery on Visovac island, set on the river. In the old watermills remodeled into small ethnographic museums you will have an insight into how wheat was milled. The main attraction of Krka national park are its 7 waterfalls, among which Roški slap is the most widely spread, while Skradinski buk the biggest and most widely known.

      Fabulous Kornati
      The whole day was so enjoyable. The boat is well organised. Staff are very attentive and make sure that everyone is well looked àfter. Lots of food and really good service. A special thank you to Ivan who made our day very special. We were blessed to see beautiful dolphins on our journey.

      Great tour
      Nice tour. The islands were beautifull. You should definately go there. The staff was very friendly and the lunch was quite okay. The stop on an island was perfect. It was beautifull and you had time to swim and snorkel. If you want to snorkel, bring your own gear.

      Good day trip
      Good boat trip from Vodice marina,cruising past the islands and then a couple of hours free time on one of the islands. You can walk to the view point, swim in the salt lake or just swim in the beautiful water. This boat was more comfortable than the one to Krka as the seats were padded. There are nice areas to sit indoors or outside in shade or sun. There was a saxophone player on board which was fab. Saw a quick glimpse of a dolphin fin. We went all inclusive and had a different wrist band so had unlimited drinks including beer, wine , bottled water and soft drinks. It was more money but we negotiated a 10% discount as also booked the Krka trip through sane company (destina are pretty much the only operator from Vodice so whoever you book with it’s same company). We booked at one of their stands around the harbour. The all inclusive lunch was steak but we opted for chicken as I am funny about how steak is cooked. Lunch was large and tasty, wine and water included on the table. Only negative was they shut the bar while making lunch but way before lunch started so we were not able to get a drink to have with lunch ( when you’ve paid for all inclusive you want to be able to use it!). No notice they were closing the bar, should give ten mins notice so people can grab a quick drink if they are thirsty rather than having to wait an hour until lunch is done. Lunch is served quite early like 11.45. Toilets on board although by the end they were not the nicest… Overall it’s a good day trip. I would recommend asking about all inclusive as not all tour operators seem to tell you about this option.

      Interesting and fabulous
      The whole tour was incredible adventure, from the moment we came on board. The food was delicious, the crew was very kind, especially the lady who talk with us about the trip, and the whole day left impact on us. :))))

      Floating party, not recommended
      This is being marketed as a boat trip to a national park, with appealing marketing pictures. But in fact, it’s more like a floating party. The staff was attending and nice, but they started serving alcohol at 8.45 am, and a lot of people onboard got drunk and very unpleasant. We witnessed some guests threatening others, and we saw spilling of alcohol and people falling asleep during the trip because they were drunk. We travelled with children who did not enjoy this, and unless you’re looking for a party I would not recommend this trip. I think the fact that they offer “all inclusive” options with free bar indicates what the purpose of the trip really is. The scenery is lovely, but we couldn’t concentrate on that because of all the noise. Would not go again, did not font it worth the money.

      We had a great, nice day on that boat and we had opportunity to hike and swim in the salty lake and the beautiful crystal clear sea (which was the highlight of the day!). Personnel on the boat was very nice. Would recommand!

      NP Krka tour
      We took a tour to the Krka National park with Destina Vodice. The trip itself consisted of a boat trip the the national park as well as at least 3 hours of free time in the park before getting back on the boat to come back to Vodice. It was a lovely boat trip, would recommend getting there via boat than a bus. The free time suited us best as that way we could enjoy the park at our own pace. The crew were lovely and welcoming providing you with extremely fresh mussels we picked up as we rode by. They also give you information of the trip and area in several different languages. There only thing I would say is I would have liked to have an opportunity to swim whilst on the boat maybe stopping somewhere to have a swim on the way back/there. Overall a good experience!

      Trip to Kornati NP and Telescica
      Crew were great, picked up in Vodice and taken to Kornati National Park which is beautiful. A shot of schnapps certainly wakes you up, A hearty lunch was served, Fish, Chicken or Vegetarian options available served with pickled cabbage, wine and water. Arrived in Telescica to see the salt lake and a lovely viewpoint. Restaurants were available there. We stayed for 2 hours and then the heavens opened. Back onboard and back to Vodice via a different route. Good explanation of what we were seeing in 3 different languages. There was a large contingent of Slovenians onboard and it turned into a party boat on the way back, we loved it but I think some of the Germans onboard were not so keen. Booked through Olympia Hotel 350hrk each, Bargain!!!

      Krka national park
      Friendly staff, interesting information and good value for money trip. Beautiful scenery on the way to the parks then 3hours was a good amount of time to go for a walk and swim at the national park. Krka waterfalls are beautiful and a must see.

      Kornati & Krka Excursions
      Excellent company, service was phenomenal. Good value for money and very friendly crews on both days. Trip 1 .. Kornati.. beautiful trip stunning cliffs lovely lunch .. you buy your own extra drinks on board but you get wine/water included with the meal. You have free time in the middle channel before you sail back to Vodice. Trip 2 .. Krka .. must do... enroute they stop to buy mussels which are complimentary and heavenly to eat! You have free time in Krka and it is a must visit if you come to Vodice area. 10/10 will defo use your services again. Thankyou for a lovely trip 😊

      Krka & Kornati excursions - wonderful 😍
      Tour to Krka NP and Kornati NP The tours are certainly worth the money (350KN /pp). Krka also includes the park entrance fee while the Kornati tour includes lunch (grilled Makrel or Chicken). Both tours start with a grappa which is somewhat challenging at 9.00. Although you get told to be at the boat at 8.45, unless you arrive by 8.00 forget about getting a decent place. For the Kornati trip there were two boats, as we were suuuuper early we were lucky to thus catch a place on the newer boat which was a treat. Staff on both boats are super nice and helpful. Both destinations are beautiful in their own way, but Krka a challenge as it is sooooooo crowded. Last time I saw so many ppl in one spot was at a concert. You can swim, but getting into the water is a challenge as you have to climb over roots and rocks. Kornati is a larger area to spread out the people, and obviously not as easy to get to, the salt lake is huge so you can easily find a quieter spot, the walk up to see the cliff amazing! Water shoes are recommended for both trips if you plan to swim! I would recommend the tours to anyone!

      Great boat trip
      Brilliant boat trip to kornati NP. The host was very friendly and spent time with the different nationalities explaining where we were going. We had a shot of hooch at the beginning, travelled to kornati which, the views were amazing, went for a swim then back to the boat for a fish lunch(which I have to say is one of the nicest fish I have ever tasted! My partner had the meat option, along with a bottle of wine, travelled back with another hooch along the way 😊 was very enjoyable, would recommend.

    We've been to many boat tours and they were all perfect, except this one. The boat is nice and new but they offer nothing else than a taxi. we got a bowl of mussels which was nice and a watery rakija and that's it.
    No free water or any sandwiches. the prices are high in the bar .3 water is 3 euro, a bad tasting tap beer is 4 euro
    I would look for an other excursion company next time

    Thank you for taking the time to write feedback. We are sorry that we did not meet your expectations. In the description of the excursion, all the services that the excursion contains are written, and all information about the excursion is available to everyone before the decision to buy the excursion. There is no information about sandwiches or water during the excursion in the description. All our guests can certainly take anything extra that is not specified in the price on the trip. The mussels you mentioned are collected directly from the farms in the canal during the cruise and are prepared on board because as part of this excursion we want to offer something authentic, local and present the attractions of the canal. Likewise, there is always a guide on board that you can contact at any time if there is any problem or wrong information. Your feedback is very much appreciated and we will do our best to take it into consideration, Kind regards, Nera

    Excellent trip. The tour company did an excellent job giving you information while travelling to the park. The guide in charge of the boat was polite and funny and very engaging. We got a shot and some muscle to taste if you wanted, and they came around explaining the way we were travelling. The park itself is absolutely beautiful and definitely worth a visit before us touristst completely spoil it

    Must do when you are in Croatia, top arranged boat trip where you could sit upstairs in the sun or downstairs with a breeze. Bar and toilet available. NB!!! Swimming is not allowed anywhere, not near the boat or the waterfall! The walk is quite physically demanding.

    Perfect trip! Pleasant boat ride, the premium option is definitely worth it (we just bought one for our group)
    Mussels were lovely, so was the host. Slight delay when we arrived at Krka getting the tickets but I think that was due to a power cut in the whole country!
    Wonderful place to visit, wish you could swim in it! Really lovely day!

    The trip was definitely worth the price! We were out from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. The crew is super nice, the boat trip was very nice and the national park is beautiful.
    During the trip, fresh mussels are delivered to the boat by fishermen, which are then deliciously prepared on board. That's really cool!
    You get to see beautiful places during the entire trip.

    I went with my family this summer for a trip and we had a great time. The boat ride to the National Park Krka is interesting and you can se a lot, and the Krka Watrfalls are wonderful. On the boat we ate shells which are freshly cought and cooked and they were delicious.😊

    Leisurely boat journey enjoying the views to the National Park. The stop to collect mussels is a nice touch. The fall’s themselves are just breathtaking & the walk up the falls & along the boardwalk is a pleasant wander through nature at its best. Expect crowds ! It’s a popular site for good reason.

    Overall we enjoyed this trip, felt like we had enough time to enjoy the falls, walk around the boardwalk and grab an ice cream. Stopping for muscles and fresh bread was also nice.

    We did the all inclusive drinks which personally it was worth it as we had a fair few beers ( on tap). Most people didn’t do all inclusive and it seems they were unaware that was offered. You get a wrist band which denotes if you are all inclusive.

    Boat was ok, had indoor area downstairs and upstairs area covered so in shade plus some seating which wasn’t covered including deckchairs. Only thing is chairs upstairs are hard so not the most comfortable. Toilets on board.

    Boat picks up in Vodice harbour but does a second stop at the jetty near Olympia which is handy if you are staying there. Also stops at Sibenik (but if you get on there you will obviously have less seating choice)

    Destina is the main boat operator in Vodice, you can book there, they have many booths near the harbour. We negotiated a 10% discount as we brought the all inclusive for two boat trips (Krka and koronati).

    Only negative is they shut the bar while doing the mussels which they don’t tell you about so you can’t grab a drink until the mussels are done but on this tour they didn’t shut it too long.

    Staff all friendly

    Would recommend overall.
