Excellent walking tour and guide
A wonderful tour full of interesting insights on the history of Pula. Adriano is a fantastic guide and showed us sights in Pula we would have missed without his guidance. A must do if visiting Pula for the first time.

Happy
It was a nice 6 hours trip which gave some new experiences for our vacation. The staff was very friendly, fun and helpful. Soft drinks, wine and beer as well as lunch were included. The lunch wasn't mesmerizing, but ok. As it was September and we took the trip from 9 a.m. the boat wasn't too crowded. It was a bit pricey for us, but we really had fun on a boat and enjoyed the experience at dinosaur park, beach and cave swimming. The local animal farm is open from 12 p.m., we were not aware about it.

A great experience not to be missed out on.
We were lucky enough to go on the Half Day Sailing Experience with Drinks, GoPro, SUP, and found the experience to be absolutely delightful and above and beyond our expectations. Before we left the marina, we were given a few options of where we might like to go. These ranged from popular snorkelling and swimming spots recommended by the skipper to a more scenic tour around the nearby nature reserve islands.Our skipper, Silvano, was absolutely brilliant and great company throughout our time on board. He was very easy to have a conversation with and a pleasure to spend time with. Whilst sailing, he was confident and professional, and there was never a moment when we felt unsafe. Silvano was excellent.There were two of us, along with a family of four. The boat was more than big enough to accommodate us all. The stern was spacious enough for everyone to sit comfortably, allowing us to chat and enjoy drinks together. The boat was also very stable, and because of this, guests were allowed to helm the boat under instruction. This is a great tour for families, as the boat is very spacious and accommodating.We recently (the following day) went on a sunset tour with another company, which we had booked before our holiday, and the service was not even close to what we received with Sail Istria. Had we not already booked the sunset tour with another company, we would have been back with Sail Istria in a heartbeat.Take your time to read through the other reviews these guys have — they will not disappoint you!

Pula sunset kayak
Fantastic. Great tour with snorkelling and cliff jumping for those brave enough. Bonus of drinks and cookies provided at the stop and cheeky Croatian liqueur at the end.

Pula Walking Tour
Incredibly informative. A local history teacher was able to give us so many details about Pula and its historic sites. Nice personal touches as well thrown in for free.

Book it!
Paul was an amazing skipper and made our half-day boat trip in Pula such a great experience! We were celebrating a 27th birthday, and he made the day feel extra special while still keeping everything so relaxed and easy. He was kind, informative, and really personalized the experience to what we wanted. The boat had plenty of room, and it was honestly the perfect way to spend the afternoon. 10000000% recommend Paul if you’re in Pula!

One and only Istrian experience
We spent a wonderful day with Sini, diving into history and visiting beautiful places in the heart of Istria. We chose a private tour to Motovun, Grožnjan, and Pazin. We were picked up right on time from our apartment in Pula in a comfortable van. On the way to Grožnjan, we stopped at a viewpoint overlooking the Leme Canal, known as the Lim Fjord. Beautiful views. During the trip, Sini treated us to a wealth of interesting facts about the places we passed, as well as the history of the entire Istria region. Grožnjan charmed us with its artistic atmosphere. It is well worth stopping and soaking in the soul of this town at a leisurely pace. Definitely unlike any other. Next was Motovun, featuring stunning views from the town walls, an olive oil and truffle tasting, and a fantastic lunch. I will just say that every place Sini recommended, I had checked beforehand and they were already on my wishlist. I won't list them here—just trust Sini, and you certainly won't be disappointed 😊 Finally, a short stop in Pazin—the Citadel, the castle, and the magnificent view of the Pazin Cave (Pazinska Jama). The return trip to Pula was smooth and peaceful, which just goes to show that besides being a great guide, Sini is also an excellent driver. To sum up, I warmly recommend any of the tours offered by Sini. Extensive historical knowledge combined with local hospitality guarantees a successful day 😊

Pula Private Walking Tourheliyan2023, Aug 2026
Wonderful guided tour in Pula
Adriano was a fantastic guide! I came knowing almost nothing about Pula and we went through the history of the town and the region from Roman times to the present day. He showed me some really hidden places that you wouldn’t normally find as a tourist, shared some local recommendations and answered all the additional questions I had :)
Highly recommend this tour if you’re in Pula!

Highlight
The guide Matej was friendly, professional, and made everyone feel safe throughout the entire experience. Exploring the sea caves was absolutely breathtaking, with crystal-clear water and stunning scenery at every turn. The pace was perfect, allowing us to enjoy the adventure while also taking time to swim and admire the beautiful coastline. Everything was well organized, and the equipment was in excellent condition. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for an unforgettable outdoor experience!
