The experience

Omiš sits where the Cetina River meets the Adriatic, and the tour starts by walking through the old town: a place shaped by centuries of pirate raids and the trade routes that made them profitable. The guide explains what the narrow streets and stone fortifications still show about that history. From there, the group heads to the river itself for a boat ride that takes you away from the coast and into the Dalmatian hinterland, where the water runs clear and the cliffs rise steep on both sides.

Lunch happens at Radman's Mills, a restaurant built into the riverbank where the Cetina still powers the old stone structures. The meal centers on local Dalmatian dishes: the kind of food that belongs to this region and this river. After eating, you have time to sit with the water and the quiet before the boat ride back and the return to your hotel.

The tour runs eight hours total. Hotel pickup and drop-off are included for selected hotels on the Makarska Riviera. If your accommodation is not on the list, public transportation options are available nearby. The guide is a professional who speaks English, German or Croatian depending on which option you book. Children under a certain age sit on an adult's lap during the boat portions.
