Sailing in Izola

Sunset Cruise with Dolphin Spotting from Umag with Welcome Drink

An all-around successful tour

The promised items, such as welcome drinks, were served as promised. Since the boat was not fully booked in the off-season, we had more than enough seats with a good view. The captain knew quite a few promising spots for dolphin watching, so it did not take long until the first sightings. When the animals were nearby, he also stayed with the boat in the area without any time pressure until the dolphins had disappeared again. Towards the end, we were then able to admire the wonderful sunset on the sea. Overall, we were out for almost three hours instead of the two hours paid for.

Day trip to Venice by ship with free bus transfer to port

Worth a full day!

What a fun day trip and experience! The guides were very informative on the way to Venice. Note there are several add ons that I was not aware of (at least not communicated Viator). They will arrange a lunch (preset but includes a lot including drinks with or without alcohol), a gondola ride, and internal boat taxi from the port. And it’s cash only (€115 for all). I had the cash but some had to do IOUs and visit the ATM once in Venice. But the add ons are helpful because they save time so you have more free time to explore. Also, I would’ve loved to explore St Marks Basilica but its timed entrance and tickets need to be purchased in advance. If I had known 13:00 was open/free time, I would’ve loved have been better prepared, but I still enjoyed walking and shopping and exploring. Note that if you’re staying at Hotel Piran, no need to arrange for a pick up, the harbor is literally next door. Once I realized that, I canceled the pick up as I would’ve traveled further just to be brought back.

Izola: Fully Private Adriatic Boat Tour to Piran & Strunjan

The best way to see the coast—highly recommend Andrej!

If you're in Izola, definitely book a trip with Andrej! He took us on a gorgeous 3-hour private tour down the coast. We got to swim, walk around Piran, and relax on deck with drinks and fresh apricots. Andrej is super nice and made the whole afternoon feel incredibly special and relaxed.
