BEST. BOAT TRIP. EVER.

OH MY WORD! What an absolutely FABULOUS day! I booked the Dubrovnik Elaphite Islands Cruise with Lunch through Dubrovnik Island Tours rather last minute, and WOW, am I glad I did! Anyone who knows me knows I'm happiest on or near the water, and I genuinely don't think I stopped smiling throughout this 6.5-hour adventure! Now, our hotel collection was an interesting start! Our driver was a rather serious chap, not quite the cheerful Croatian welcome I've become accustomed to. And I'm fairly certain his car was smoking at one point! 😂 Thankfully, we made it to the boat without incident! And what an absolutely BRILLIANT crew! Friendly, professional, helpful and genuinely lovely people. And can we just acknowledge how ridiculously good-looking they all are?! Sorry, I don't mean to objectify anyone! I'm simply appreciating the gorgeous Croatian scenery, both on and off the boat! 😂 A HUGE thank you to: - Natasha, our beautiful host, inside and out! What a gorgeous smile and wonderful personality! She did a fabulous job explaining our stops and keeping everyone informed and entertained. - Darko, another fantastic member of this lovely team! - Bozo, our captain, for taking such good care of us on the water! - Mark and Jason, our AMAZING cooks! You two are absolute superstars! And the FOOD! OH MY GOODNESS! I chose the fish for lunch, and it was absolutely STUNNING! Beautifully prepared and utterly delicious. Huge compliments to Mark and Jason! Who needs a fancy restaurant when you've got fabulous food and the Adriatic Sea as your backdrop?! The crew even helped me connect to their personal WiFi when my internet mysteriously disappeared. Such a thoughtful gesture, and genuinely appreciated! The boat itself was IMMACULATE! Spotlessly clean, beautifully maintained and clearly well looked after. Even the toilets were spotless, which deserves a special mention! There's nothing worse than a grubby loo, especially when you're out at sea! 😂 And the MUSIC! ABSOLUTELY AWESOME! Gorgeous islands, sunshine, fabulous tunes and a little seat dancing from yours truly! Honestly, I was in my absolute element! NOW, LET'S TALK ABOUT THE PRICE! Just €50 for a 6.5-hour boat trip, including lunch, wonderful music, breathtaking scenery and an outstanding crew! FIFTY EUROS! What incredible value! I was so impressed that I left the crew a €25 tip, which I sincerely hope they felt was a decent thank you. They absolutely deserved it! I've been fortunate enough to enjoy some wonderful adventures on the water, but I can genuinely say this was THE BEST BOAT TRIP I'VE EVER BEEN ON! To Natasha, Darko, Captain Bozo, Mark and Jason, thank you for giving this very happy, slightly bonkers blonde woman such an unforgettable day! Would I recommend it? ABSOLUTELY! And at €50, you'd be mad to miss it! 😂
