Why We Offer Complimentary Tours on Our Crewed Yacht Charters: It’s About the Local Experience, Not Just the Boat

When you book a yacht charter, especially a luxurious crewed one, you’re not just booking a boat — you’re booking an experience.

And yet, time and again we hear the same story: guests book a beautiful catamaran or gulet, plan to sail the Adriatic, and… then what? Where do you go? What should you not miss? How do you avoid the tourist traps?

That’s exactly why, at Allure Navis, we’ve made it our mission to go a step further. When you charter with us, you don’t just get a yacht and crew — you get complimentary local experiences handpicked by us.

Because we believe that luxury is more than just a stunning deck or spacious cabin. It’s about connection, discovery, and memories.  

Everyone Can Book a Boat — But Not Everyone Knows Where to Go After

Croatia’s coastline is full of magic — but it can also be overwhelming. There are thousands of islands, hidden coves, charming villages, and local producers just waiting to be discovered.

While your skipper and crew will guide you day to day, we also wanted to give our guests something even more personal: curated local tours that go beyond the obvious.

Here’s what we currently offer — all included when you book selected crewed yachts through us.

A Private Visit to the Famous Blue Cave on Biševo

Yes, you’ve heard of it — the glowing, ethereal Blue Cave (Modra Špilja) on Biševo island. But we do it differently. While most visitors rush in with big tourist boats, we organize an early or late visit with local skippers who know the tides, the timing, and how to avoid the crowds.

You get to experience the cave at its most magical — in peace, with time to truly enjoy it. And Biševo isn’t just about the cave. It’s wild, remote, and raw — a place where the Adriatic still feels untouched.

If you’re lucky, you might even meet one of the island’s winemakers or fishermen still living a simple life off the land and sea.

Wine and Olive Oil Tasting in Hvar’s Countryside

Hvar Town is famous, no doubt. But just beyond the glittering port lies a different side of the island — quiet villages, ancient stone terraces, and family-run farms. With us, you’ll be welcomed into a local olive oil garden near Hvar where generations have cultivated olives and grapes.

Under the shade of olive trees, you’ll taste award-winning oils, homemade bread, local cheeses, and wines you won’t find in any supermarket. This is the kind of luxury that doesn’t come with a label — it’s about hospitality, tradition, and soul.  

The Allure Navis Difference

We’re a boutique agency, run by locals who’ve worked in the charter industry for years. We’ve seen how impersonal yacht bookings can become — and we wanted to change that. The complimentary tours we include are not “add-ons” — they’re part of what we believe a real Croatian sailing vacation should be.

They’re not just tours; they’re your invitation into the stories, tastes, and places that make our coast unforgettable. So yes, you could just book a boat. But if you want to feel the Adriatic — not just see it — come sail with us.
