    This Viator experience in...

    This Viator experience in Dubrovnik was one of the best we’ve ever had. Our guide Mare was fantastic—she handled the ferry tickets, got us boarded smoothly, and knew all the best hiking spots on the island. Just my husband and me (early 30s), and we covered a solid 5–6 miles with her. Wear tennis shoes and bring at least a 1.5-liter water bottle. Mare took us to a beautiful, secluded swimming spot where we had the place to ourselves and even did some cliff jumping. Pro tip: pack a sandwich for a picnic there so you can spend more time swimming and relaxing. She also shared a delicious protein cookie with us. Incredible day from start to finish!

    A Beautiful Day

    Our guide was lovely. We circumvented the entire island with beautiful views all the way. Halfway through we stopped to swim. The water is so clear. It was a lovely excursion.

    A hike & swim not to be missed

    This hike and swim is fantastic, the scenery and nature on Kolocep is stunning. . I hiked with Mare in 2022 and enjoyed it so much I came back again with my family. Guests should know that if you opt to eat at the restaurant at the end of hike it’s cash only.

    Great Experience

    My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the walk through the woods and along the beautiful coast. The swim was wonderful, we did the “cliff diving” it was about a 20 foot jump into the water. After swimming we finished the last leg of the hike ending at a family owned restaurant on the beach where we enjoyed fresh fish cooked over an open flame. Hi highly recommend this tour!

    Kolocep Island Hiking and Swimming Full Day Trip from Dubrovnik: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Kolocep Island Hiking and Swimming Full Day Trip from Dubrovnik cost?

    +

    Prices start at $111 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 Kolocep Island Hiking and Swimming Full Day Trip from Dubrovnik take?

    +

    Plan for about 6 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 Kolocep Island Hiking and Swimming Full Day Trip from Dubrovnik worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 68 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 15 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 Kolocep Island Hiking and Swimming Full Day Trip from Dubrovnik?

    +

    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 Kolocep Island Hiking and Swimming Full Day Trip from Dubrovnik suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Kolocep Island Hiking and Swimming Full Day Trip from Dubrovnik?

    +

    Around 5 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 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Kolocep Island Hiking and Swimming Full Day Trip from Dubrovnik 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), Dubrovnik: Sunset Kayaking & Snorkeling with water &wine. 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.

    What is included in Kolocep Island Hiking and Swimming Full Day Trip from Dubrovnik?

    +

    Included: Professional guide; Hiking tour; and Energy bar. Not included: Lunch; Hotel pickup and drop-off; Gratuities; and Transportation to/from attractions. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
