Vukan Simic's entrepreneurial journey began with childhood fishing lessons from his grandfather, who taught him to see the world through its endless outdoor possibilities. As founder and CEO of BoatBooker, Simic recognized a fundamental problem: booking a fishing trip was unnecessarily complicated compared to the simplicity of reserving a hotel room. His solution was elegant—create platforms that make planning water-based adventures as effortless as any other travel booking.
Today, BoatBooker connects adventurers worldwide with unforgettable experiences on the water, turning his grandfather's early lessons into a global mission to make outdoor exploration accessible to everyone.
