Adventure Travel in Croatia and Montenegro: Frequently Asked Questions

Experience:

No previous kayaking experience is necessary. Tours begin with introductory lessons on equipment, safety, kayak entry and fit on the beach. Basic paddling technique and capsize & recovery are covered in shallow, protected water. Beginners can learn adequate skills quickly to thoroughly enjoy sea kayaking from day 1; small group size allows guides to work with clients individually; and the Adriatic Sea is warm and usually calm during the 6 month season. Advanced skill classes, for example rolling, are optional and scheduled according to client wishes. Additional learning such as local weather, sea conditions, navigation, and more advanced paddling skills develop naturally as the tour progresses.

Custom Tours:

A group of 6 or larger may request a custom tour. Tours may be customized according to specific needs and criteria-activities, date availability, fitness level, location, experience level, etc.

Group & Family Discounts: Day Tours: families of 6 or more receive a 10% discount off their total tour cost. Groups of 6 or more receive a 5% discount/person. Discounts do not apply to multi-day tours.

Parking:

Parking in Dubrovnik during tourist season is nearly impossible. Stari Grad canʼt easily accommodate the influx of additional motorized vehicles. AKT clients arriving by car for multi- day tours may park and leave a car at the AKT kayak base in Zaton Bay (10 km north of Dubrovnik) during their tour. An AKT employee will help with logistics and shuttle clients to drop off and pick up their car
