Glide along the gentle waters of the Kupa, the heart and soul of Central Croatia. Our Kupa River cruise delivers you to culture-rich banks, from scenic forests to beautiful monastery and ancient sunken boat that have inspired many passengers for centuries. Glittering tradition, lush sceeneries and endless scenic splendor line the river banks. Nurse a glass of wine and enjoy the local delights while gazing at the open horizon of beautiful green Kupa riverbed. Discover its secrets as our expert interpretors take you from the ancient times and the otoman invasions to the golden period of Karlovac and beyond. The journey is followed by a rare whitetaled eagle with wingspan of 1,8 meters being our common fearless guest. You can try to navigate the boat with the assistance of our captain. The welcoming and friendly local staff will be happy to share with you the story how this boat has been built and how it has revived a river cruise tradition on the Kupa after 200 years.
