Solid excursion for a very high price
By and large, the excursion was good. The stops that were made were good. Everyone was friendly and helpful. Pickup a bit unclear. We probably weren't paying enough attention, though. We didn't see anyone in a white T-shirt. According to the description, lunch was supposed to be included in the price. This was not the case and we had to pay for it separately. We found everything a little disorganized. Also the aspect regarding the port fee. We also read about that beforehand. I think it would perhaps be cheaper if this were included in the price.

Enjoyable day out to see more of the local area.
My wife and I enjoyed this trip very much. The boat that we went on was smaller than the one pictured as there were only 8 people on the trip (inc us). The boat was fast enough (25mph) on choppy waters. The beaches were lovely and lunch was good. Our host was very welcoming and kept us informed throughout the day. It was an excellent way of seeing more of Croatia as we were staying in a hotel without a car. Expect to pay €20 (each) docking fee as advertised on the listing.

Stay away from the tour... really rip-off!
very poorly organized tour, very expensive for this tour. This can be described as a luxury gate. Why? The boat very old, the At collection point entered incorrectly, had to make a follow-up phone call, look where it was, nobody took care of us where we were, even after 15 minutes, instead of apologizing we were equally mulled and money requires 20 euros each per person because for parking must be paid extra, but it says that the parking fees are included in the price. We will certainly never get that money back. The food was so lala, did not taste us at all, there were also no drinks, even not to buy on the boat, far too little time to inquire from then look at places and only one opportunity to swim in the wonderful, warm, clear sea. Ever talked about the ride, tells what we're passing where we are. We have disappointed. So beautiful places we wanted to visit and were just stressed. In the end, we were the only ones on board to be abandoned in the other spot, there were problems again....so stay away from the tour . I thought for a long time whether I write the review so honestly now, but it was ride for everyone who watches the tour out there. Keep looking... not book this one.

Amazing!
The speedboat tour was absolutely amazing! I really enjoyed the beaches, the sea, the lunch, and our skipper, Goran. However, I was disappointed that there was no first aid kit, no lifebuoys, and no life jackets on the boat. I also believe that visiting the sunken ship is quite dangerous due to the high risk of injury. Out of our group of five, three of us got cuts, and I personally sustained a deep cut that required stitching and bled a lot. I consider myself lucky to have come out relatively okay. Additionally, a girl had cut her head the day before, so I feel that visiting the rusty Ostrog ship isn’t very safe.

unique experience - worth every euro
This speedboat tour is not exactly cheap for a family of 4, as children also incur the amount of €100 per person. Nevertheless, it is a unique experience where you can experience different and extraordinary beaches, the sunken ship and the submarine tunnel within a day. A good lunch also included. We had a very polite and friendly "captain" with Jure. For those who are not afraid of the price, definitely recommended!

Why this scores 61
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Zadar: Sakarun - Dugi otok Luxury Speedboat Tour with Lunch: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Zadar.
How much does Zadar: Sakarun - Dugi otok Luxury Speedboat Tour with Lunch cost?
+
Prices start at $103 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Zadar usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Zadar: Sakarun - Dugi otok Luxury Speedboat Tour with Lunch take?
+
Plan for about 8.5 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 Zadar is not rushed.
Is Zadar: Sakarun - Dugi otok Luxury Speedboat Tour with Lunch worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4/5 across 13 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Zadar, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Zadar: Sakarun - Dugi otok Luxury Speedboat Tour with Lunch?
+

Is Zadar: Sakarun - Dugi otok Luxury Speedboat Tour with Lunch suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Zadar: Sakarun - Dugi otok Luxury Speedboat Tour with Lunch?
+
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 Zadar 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 Zadar and add a light layer if any part of the 8.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

When is the best time to visit Zadar?
+
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 Zadar?
+
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.

+
