Open-air tuk-tuk to Biokovo’s Skywalk with skip-the-line tickets, great photo stops, and cherry liqueur and chocolates included from Makarska.
“Our guide ( from Sweden) was super! He shared lots of interesting history as we traveled up and back from the Sky Walk. The apéritif and chocolate were very good. The skywalk was spectacular, and the view was jaw dropping! I highly recommend this if you are in the Makrska.”
Skip the line to Biokovo Skywalk with hotel transfers from Makarska. Priority entry, glass views at 1,220 m, and scenic rides.

Makarska Buggy Skywalk & Biokovo viewpoint tour with priority entry, Sinjal peak picnic, wine, and guided mountain stops in 4 hours.
“The tour was amazing! Our guide was very kind, friendly, and communicative, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. Everything was well organized. I can highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a great experience. Jurij/Juraj gave an excellent tip”
5-hour Makarska speedboat tour with Hvar’s blue cave, cliff jumps in Mala Stiniva, and Zečevo Blue Lagoon snorkeling.
“Brilliant day out where you get to see all the hidden Gems of the islands. Great guide and very knowledgeable. Mark & Heledd”
Speedboat day from Makarska to Hvar’s north shore bays for swimming, snorkeling gear, cliff-jump views, and Jelsa time.
“Nice trip to Hvar Island. Had three stops - first was a swimming stop for 30-40mins, there was a bar on the beach but you have to swim to the shore. Then Jesla Town which was really nice, around an hour to explore. Then two more 30min swim stops at different bays, neither of which you could get a drink or do much onshore. Boat was a bit rough between the stops and the way back so if you are in the front you get very wet. Sit in the back if you want to stay dry and in the shade during the journeys.”
Guided sea kayaking off Makarska, with a lighthouse stop and snorkeling at Nugal. Includes gear, snacks, and optional cliff jumps.
“Excellent experience. Guide was great and attentive to the whole family aged 8 to 50. Would definitely recommend.”
5-hour Makarska speedboat to Brač, Hvar, and Zečevo—swim at Zlatni Rat and Blue Lagoon, stroll Vrboska, and chase cliff views.
“Well organised and enjoyable. The speedboat was fun and refreshing. Lovely views. Nice bit of swimming and snorkeling at the end.”
Air-conditioned day trip from Makarska to Krka Waterfalls and Šibenik old town, with timed free time and separate-entrance park access.
“Good place to visit. We found , as others have, that 3 hours was slightly too long. The walks we could do werent long enough to fill this time and no shorter boat trips were available in Oct only 4 hour trips. The town we visited was lively and full of history. Overall a good trip but for us not a lot to do in the park.”
Makarska to Dubrovnik day trip by air-conditioned minibus with coastal views, Old Town gate drop-off, and 4 hours in Dubrovnik.
First-time scuba setup in Brela with gear included, a 45-min Home Reef session, and Ivan and Amber guiding you safely in English.
“It was truly the best experience I’ve had in a very long time. Both Ivan and Amber were awesome in their expertise as certified divers. I felt comfortable and safe! Ivan was instrumental in me getting to Bikini Dive and hosting me as this was my first experience. Amber explained all that I needed to know before diving and guided me while underwater. Such an amazing experience! I would definitely think of them when I return to Brela, Croatia to certify as a Diver!”
Paddle Croatia’s Bacina Lakes on a guided SUP tour with a lesson, birdlife spots, a spring stop, and a fruit picnic.
“Ivan was an excellent tutor and fun guide. The experience is 100% worth while exploring the lakes and the local wildlife, including Cormorants and Eagles - did you know you can scare seagulls away by flapping your arms like a big eagle? I didn’t either, until today. Hvala Ivan!”
Parasailing with MPL Nautika in Makarska, Croatia: a short boat ride, a 5–15 minute flight above the sea, and clear safety coaching.
“Amazing and well organized team of hosts. Very skilled captain and spotter that clearly had the process down. Highly recommend going for the longer length. We did the 600’ for a first time and will do the max if we do it again. The ride was so smooth and peaceful. Not at all scary. We loved it, would absolutely do it again.”
Electric Land Rover to Biokovo Skywalk and St. George for cloud views, wild-horse chances, and calm, small-group mountain time.
“We really enjoyed it! Riding in the Land Rover was a cool experience in itself, and the picnic with local specialties made it even more special. Our guide was really friendly and ready to take our pictures. He even showed us a really good restaurant on our way back; this was the hospitality we’ve been looking for our entire holiday.”
Makarska speedboat to Hvar and Brač: swim Little Blue Cave, Blue Lagoon on Zečevo, then Jelsa coffee. Small group.
“Was a great afternoon out on the boat. Karlo our guide was fantastic. Would highly recommend!!”
