Kornati National Park and Nature Park Telašćica Full-Day Trip from Zadar

We were on the Arbijana. The staff were excellent but the tour operators have issues to address: - the back of the seats on the upper deck need to be replaced. It is uncomfortable sitting without proper back support. - the staff were exceptional except for a short blonde girl who was miserable and never smiled. She looked like the spoiled daughter of the owner who did not want to be there.

Good planning of the trip. Perfect place to swim. Good and service minded straff and lovely scenery all day long!

Fantastic day! The boat was comfortable, full, but not overcrowded. The guides were friendly and helpful, and their grasp of the English language was excellent. My only criticism is I prefer boat tours where we stop at a restaurant for freshly grilled whole fish for lunch. The food is fresher and better that way, but that was the only minor issue. I definitely recommend this trip, especially for the very reasonable price! The kids had a blast!

Way too long of a tour - most of the time on a long and boring boat journey which was super crowded. The stops were quite underwhelming and the lunch was terrible.

This was a great day trip. The boat ride was long, but enjoyable. Breakfast was basic: ham and cheese in a bun and "schnapps". It should be noted that the trip was actually to telašćica national park. It would have been helpful to have more time to walk around the lake and have a swim and explore the area a bit more. Lunch on the way back was good: fish and chicken with a little salad and bread with wine. The crew were very friendly and helpful and were able to drop us off at one of the ports instead of the old town on the way back. It was a fantastic day and I recommend it．

Friendly staff, nice food, they showed whole national park with stop at Mir salt lake and the cliffs. Would recommend for a day trip to Kornati islands :-)

Really enjoyed this excursion. Staff was extremely courteous. It was a great value as well. The only thing that was disappointing was that there was no time to visit the mir lake.

We took this trip at the end of September, on a sunny day. We had two stops - 1st at the National Park Telaščica, here we had 2 hours free time for swimming and hiking 2nd stop was at the small fishing town Kukljica, here we had some 30minutes, just to walk around, have an ice cream and that's it. Almost all of the tour we were spending on a boat. It is quite windy there, so you should grab a jacket. We also had a breakfast sandwich and lunch chicken, fish and cabagge salad - this wasn't very nice meal. Anyway, trip was nice, wheather was great and you should try it!

Really great tour and value for money! The boat is pretty big, there's probably around 40-50 guests but there is plenty of tables and space. Unfortunately when we got picked up in Zadar old town there had already been one pick up so we got a table downstairs inside - grabbed a great top deck table for lunch however. Breakfast is a cheese and ham sandwich which was great. Wine is free and there was a water cooler of juice/squash that was replenished throughout the trip. The first stop was an incredible beach - it gets very crowded from the group but is still beautiful. We had a couple hours to swim and sunbathe before getting back on board for lunch. Lunch was a choice of meat or fish with salad and bread, there was also wine on all of the tables. There are two more stops after lunch, one short one and one longer where you can have a wander around a little fishing village and grab ice creams or head to another beach. All in all the trip is pretty long, 8am-6pm, and offers fantastic value for money. Highly recommend! do note you need to pay extra to cover the national park/kornati entrance money, this was 100kn for us so around another 13, also try and grab an outside table if you can

We took this tour during our recent stay in Zadar, although the tour differed from the description it was still a great tour with some beautiful sighs and stops. There was a slight mix up with the pick up point as I had been sent the wrong pick up point but once I showed the last the email she was okay about it. Once we boarded the boat about 8.15am, it was quite busy but we found a nice seat on the outside deck. Once we got going, a nice girl came around with some peach schnapps and some breakfast sandwiches. These were quite nice and very much needed. Our first stop was a Lojena Beach on the Kornati Islands. This was a beautiful peaceful location, the beach and the water was perfect. We had about two hours here. We got back on the boat, where were served lunch. We had opted for the meat option, there was a good selection of meats and some salad with bread. There was also two bottles of red and white wine to accompany the lunch. Our next stop after a short trip on the boat was Church of Our Lady of Tarac, this was a nice stop. We visited the church and climbed up the hill to take in some of the amazing sights, there was also time for swimming here. Once back on the boat again we head for the small fishing town of Sali on Dugi Otok, this was a lovely little town. There was time for swimming or to get an ice cream. We took in some of the sights and sampled some of the ice cream. Overall, I found the tour very enjoyable and great value for money. The guide was also very good and helpful. The trip back was lovely and we arrived back in Zadar around 6pm.
