    Unforgettable sea cave and Safari bar experience

    Ivan was a terrific guide for our 5 hour kayaking adventure. I estimate that about 2-2.5 hours of that time was spent kayaking to Cape Kamenjak and back, 1 hour clambering over rocks, cliff jumping, swimming and exploring the sea cave, 1-1.5 hours having a leisurely lunch in the shade at the wonderful Safari Bar. Ivan was full of information and instilled confidence in us. 10 km was a lot for us to kayak in one day, especially after a long kayaking adventure elsewhere a couple of days before, but we made it and felt that the journey was totally worth it. We arrived late at Jistra and were very grateful for the staff’s good humor about this. Don’t make the mistake of not allowing sufficient time to get to Jistra. We were staying nearby ant Arena One 99 and thought it would take us just 25 mins. However the free parking was full and the queues at the camp site reception were so long as to preclude us purchasing the 15 euro ticket needed for the paid parking lot inside the campsite. So when they tell you to aim to get there at 9.20 for a 10am start, take note!

    Amazing kayak in Croatia

    Spectacular tour of one of the most amazing sea caves. Aleksa the guide was superb, kind, funny and knowledgeable. The experience of the cave was worth the paddle! We had lunch at Safari Bar which is a hidden paradise and fantasy land in the trees and canes on the hill above the beach. Great place.

    FULL CAVE & SAFARI EXPERIENCE by KAYAK: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Pula.

    How much does FULL CAVE & SAFARI EXPERIENCE by KAYAK cost?

    +

    Prices start at $108 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Pula usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does FULL CAVE & SAFARI EXPERIENCE by KAYAK take?

    +

    Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Pula is not rushed.

    Is FULL CAVE & SAFARI EXPERIENCE by KAYAK worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 70 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 21 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Pula, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule FULL CAVE & SAFARI EXPERIENCE by KAYAK?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is FULL CAVE & SAFARI EXPERIENCE by KAYAK suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book FULL CAVE & SAFARI EXPERIENCE by KAYAK?

    +

    Around 7 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Pula can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Pula and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does FULL CAVE & SAFARI EXPERIENCE by KAYAK start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Pula within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Pula?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Pula experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Medulin-Kamenjak 5h boat trip ALL-INCLUSIVE drinks on Sandra Boat, Dolphin Watching & Sunset Boat Tour With Drinks & optional Dinner, Medulin: All-Inclusive Pirate Boat Tour to Kamenjak Cave & Levan. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Pula?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Pula?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
