Day tour Skywalk Biokovo

If you’re dreaming of standing on a glass platform high above the cliffs of Croatia’s Dalmatian coast, this tour offers a spectacular way to do it. The Skywalk Biokovo tour is designed to give travelers a taste of mountain majesty, combined with modern comforts and a touch of adrenaline. It’s a perfect day trip for those who want a mix of breathtaking scenery, a bit of thrill, and the chance to see a less-trodden part of Croatia from a new perspective.

What we love about this tour is its easy, hassle-free transportation in modern air-conditioned vans, which makes the journey comfortable even if you’re coming from popular spots like Makarska Riviera. The Skywalk itself, a glass platform suspended over the cliffs at 1228 meters above sea level, is the star attraction — offering views that stretch all the way to Italy on clear days. And, at just $29 per person, it’s a surprisingly good value given the experience you get.

One thing to consider is that the road to the mountain can be impressive and winding — some travelers have mentioned it’s almost more spectacular than the skywalk itself. If you’re prone to motion sickness, it might be worth bringing some remedies. This tour is best suited for those who are comfortable with scenic drives, eager for a mix of nature and a little thrill, and looking to capture incredible photos.

What You Can Expect from the Tour

The Itinerary and Journey

Your adventure begins with a pick-up from your pre-arranged meeting point or your hotel, making it a hassle-free start. From there, the trip takes roughly three hours round-trip, giving ample time to soak in the scenery. The ride itself is notably comfortable thanks to the air-conditioned minivan, which is essential considering the Croatian summer heat or even cooler mountain air depending on the season.

The drive to Biokovo is not just about reaching the skywalk but also about enjoying the trip through beautiful Dalmatian landscapes. Travelers have noted that the road is quite impressive, with winding mountain passes and spectacular views. Some reviewers have remarked that the journey is almost more breathtaking than the destination, making it an adventure in itself.

The Skywalk Experience

Once at the top, you’ll step onto the first-ever Skywalk in Croatia, perched at an altitude of 1228 meters. The glass platform extends out over the cliffs, giving a sense of floating above the rocky landscape. On a sunny day with clear skies, you might see as far as Italy — an extraordinary perspective that photography lovers will cherish. The view encompasses the rugged coastline, the shimmering sea, and the lush greenery of Biokovo National Park.

Travelers have described the experience as “amazing,” with some noting how the clouds can shift quickly, creating dramatic vistas or obscuring the scenery—so timing your visit for good weather is worthwhile. The platform offers a perfect spot for photos, and many visitors find it a thrilling highlight of their trip.

Nature and Wildlife

Beyond the skywalk, the tour offers a chance to appreciate the flora and fauna of Biokovo Nature Park. While the primary focus is the panoramic views from above, the surrounding environment is lively with mountain plants and wildlife, making it a rewarding experience for nature lovers.
