    5 star trip

    Amazing sailing boat experience with Frank. Took us to amazing places and when somewhere was too packed he found somewhere better. Made us feel at home and relaxed on the boat and was very welcoming, I will be back.

    Outstanding day

    We booked a full day of sailing, swimming and snorkeling, which did not disappoint! I've booked sailing at other locations for more money but Frano and his boat were by far the best! Cheap at twice the price! Frano is very personable and it was a VERY relaxing day. I HIGHLY recommend!

    Perfect way to top off an amazing trip to Dubrovnik!

    We spent an amazing day with Frano sailing around the Elafiti Islands. His sailboat is beautiful and spacious and you can feel confident with Captain Frano’s mariner skills! What a perfect way to relax and enjoy the beauty of Croatia’s coast, islands and crystal clear water. We are already looking forward to our next trip!

    A Perfect Trip. Highly Recommendable!!!

    The sailing trip with Frano was just great. He is very knowledgeable about the region and history and (and of course sailing). Great lunch and wine tasting.

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Best Day of Our Trip — Hands Down. Get out on THIS Sailboat with Captain Franco

    We booked a full-day, multi-island sailing tour with Dubrovnik Sailing Tours, and it ended up being the highlight of our entire trip. Captain Frano is exceptional. You can immediately tell how much pride he takes in both his boat and the experience he creates. He struck the perfect balance of being attentive and informative while still giving us space to fully relax and enjoy the day. The itinerary was beautiful and well-paced — we explored the Elaphiti Islands, swam in crystal-clear water, visited stunning beaches like Šunj, and had time to wander charming villages. Nothing felt rushed. It felt curated. The boat itself was spotless and comfortable, with plenty of space to lounge, take in the views, and truly unwind. Sailing between islands with that Adriatic backdrop was unreal. What made this experience stand out was the feeling — it wasn’t just a tour, it felt like being out on the water with someone who genuinely loves what they do and wants you to have an unforgettable day. If you’re even considering a boat day in Dubrovnik, book this. No question. We would do it again in a heartbeat.

    Islands full day tour with sailing experience: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Islands full day tour with sailing experience cost?

    +

    Prices start at $50 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Dubrovnik usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Islands full day tour with sailing experience take?

    +

    Plan for about 8 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 Dubrovnik is not rushed.

    Is Islands full day tour with sailing experience worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 71 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 16 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Dubrovnik, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Islands full day tour with sailing experience?

    +

    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 Islands full day tour with sailing experience suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Islands full day tour with sailing experience?

    +

    Around 6 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 Dubrovnik 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 Dubrovnik and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Islands full day tour with sailing experience 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 Dubrovnik 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 Dubrovnik?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Dubrovnik experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Dubrovnik: Game of Thrones Walking Tour, Dubrovnik: 7 Caves & Blue Cave Speedboat Tour (4h), Panorama Zipline Experience in Dubrovnik. 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 Dubrovnik?

    +

    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 Dubrovnik?

    +

    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.
