Viator Horrible - Boating Great

The actual experience wasn’t bad once we got going and were able to enjoy the boat ride and beaches. The issues started when our ship was delayed getting to port. The only way to communicate was through Viator. There was a significant amount of confusion and frustration in scheduling the time with the delays. Initially they told us to choose between 9:00am and 1:00pm. We chose 1:00pm knowing that we might not be able to make the 9:00am time due to the delayed arrival. When we arrived at gate 4 as instructed there wasn’t any boat or captain waiting for us as they said they would be. After more emails and “chat” messages. They said it had been pushed back to 2:00. So we arrived at gate 4 again at 2:00. Still no boat or captain waiting for us. After more emails and chats they said they told us 2:30. Which after more investigation we found they did via the viator message within their website. The only way you see their communication is if you are logged into your account on their website. Our experience with Viator was very disappointing and frustrating. We will probably never use them again for booking excursions. Our experience on the boat was pleasant and relaxing but it was hard to get past the frustration leading up to the experience.

Thank you very much for taking the time to share your feedback. First of all, we would like to say again how sorry we are for everything that happened due to your cruise ship's delay. Unfortunately, this unexpected situation affected the schedule of all guests arriving on the same ship, and we did our very best to accommodate everyone that day. We completely understand your frustration with the communication through the Viator platform. Unfortunately, as suppliers, we are limited to communicating through their messaging system for bookings made on their website. We always try to respond as quickly as possible, and guests are also welcome to contact us directly by phone or WhatsApp, which often makes communication much easier in situations like this. We would kindly ask you to consider updating or removing your review, as most of your comments relate to your experience with Viator's communication system rather than the boat tour itself. Since this review appears on our business profile, it directly affects our rating and future guests' impression of our company. We truly appreciate that you mentioned enjoying the boat trip, the beautiful beaches, and the relaxing experience once you were on board. We work very hard to provide every guest with the best possible day on the water, and it would mean a great deal to us if your review could reflect your experience with our service rather than the limitations of the booking platform. Thank you again for your understanding, and we sincerely hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back to Montenegro in the future.

Not as advertised!

This was a terrible experience. The boat was small-not for 6 people. Getting on & off the boat was terrifying. The boat was backed up to the pier & it was a 3 ft jump down to get on the boat.( not an exaggeration )When I couldn’t make that jump he put a cooler there for me to climb down on & then jump on the deck. My husband could not do thatThank God he found a makeshift ramp for him to walk down & my grandson was there to help us The boat had 1 seat for 2 & then 2 tiny child folding chairs(also true) our 2 grandchildren climbed out on the front of the boat to sit. If all 6 of us were in the back we had to maneuver around each other. The boat did not have a bathroom as advertised but that was the least of the issues. It was not a boat for 6 people. The only reason I gave it 1 star was because the boat driver took us to 2 beautiful beaches. He spoke little English but he tried his best to be helpful.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are truly sorry that your experience did not meet your expectations. We would like to clarify a few points for future guests. Our boat is factory-rated for up to 8 people and is certified and insured in accordance with all applicable maritime safety regulations. While we welcome a maximum of 6 guests on our tours to provide a more comfortable experience, the boat is fully suitable for that number. Our skipper always assists guests during boarding and disembarking. The ramp used for boarding is a dedicated boarding ramp, designed for safe access to the boat, not an improvised solution. Regarding the seating, the boat offers shaded seating at the stern as well as a spacious sunbathing area at the bow, where many guests choose to relax during the trip. The folding chairs were simply additional seating provided for extra comfort. We also apologize if there was any misunderstanding regarding the toilet. The boat is equipped with a marine toilet inside the cabin, as stated in the listing. We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed the beautiful beaches and appreciated our skipper's efforts to make your trip enjoyable. We value all feedback and will continue working to provide the best possible experience for our guests.

Great experience

Great communication prior to the trip. Fabulous boat which was comfortable for our family of 5 and the captain. The captain, Predrag was really helpful prior and during our boat hire. Predrag took us to a beautiful beach that is only accessible by boat. We had an amazing time snorkelling here.

Very pleasant ocean inlet swimming trip

A very pleasant afternoon on this privately owned recreational fishing boat. Small swim platform for diving off, snacks and snorkels provided. The skipper relaxed and friendly, and good company. Recommended 👍

Relaxing boat ride along the coast of Bar, Montenegro

We enjoyed anchoring near a pebble beach and going for a refreshing swim in the sea. The cokes and snacks were a pleasant surprise.
