    Description

    We are a small, friendly, family-run boat tour company in Medulin, Croatia, and we are looking for motivated, friendly, and outgoing people to join our team for the summer season and help us promote and run our boat excursions.

    With over 30 years of experience in tourism and a strong passion for the sea. Our tours explore the Medulin archipelago, Cape Kamenjak, Golumbera Cave, and nearby islands, and we focus on giving our guests a high-quality and memorable experience.

    As the second generation continuing the family business, we are motivated to grow, improve, and bring fresh energy and ideas into our work. We enjoy working with young, responsible, and motivated people who want to gain real experience in tourism, sales, and guest service.

    We are proud to be among the top-rated boat tour providers on TripAdvisor for many years, including winning first place in the Outdoor Activities / Boat Tours category from 2022 to 2025. This reflects how seriously we take our work and our guests’ experience.

    With us, you will be part of a friendly and supportive team, but also a professional working environment where reliability, responsibility, and good communication are important. If you enjoy working with people, being by the sea, and learning how tourism really works, we would be happy to meet you.

    As a member of our team, you will be involved in selling and promoting boat tours, communicating with guests, helping with the organization of trips, and assisting with daily season preparations. You will learn how a small tourism business operates, how to work with guests, and how to sell a tourist product in real-life conditions.

    We offer a paid position with accommodation included, a friendly and supportive working atmosphere, plenty of time by the sea, and the opportunity to experience the local way of life. We try to make everyone feel like part of the family, not just part of the workforce. For many years, we have been among the top-rated boat tour providers on TripAdvisor, and from 2022 to 2025 we won first place in the Outdoor Activities / Boat Tours category.

    If you love the sea, enjoy working with people, and want to gain experience in tourism, we would be happy to meet you and see if we are a good fit.
