Scam company! They dont make proper arrangements, not enough life jackets , no snorkeling gear and water even though its mentioned that it supposed to be included. They even ade us change 3 boats during the tour so no space in each boat. Finally was put into a boat with noisy kids. The blue cave and Hvar are must visits but avoid this company and grey Line tours ..
First the positives , the places were stunning from the blue cave to Hvar. Thats about it. The tour company is extremely disorganised, and everything is not as advertised. The itinerary mentions stinivia cave but they take you somehwere else to swim! There was supposed to be a swim stop and a snorkeling stop we just got a random stop to swim at. The boat did not carry enough life jackets and also did not have proper snorkeling gear as promised. Also they said water is included but they did not provide the same. I would skip this company and do the tour with another one..
We had an amazing experience on this boat trip! Patrick was an awesome skipper—friendly, knowledgeable, and made the day so much fun. The boat was very comfortable, even during the longer stretches on the water. Patrick took us to fantastic stops and had great recommendations throughout the day that made the experience even better. We would absolutely recommend this trip to anyone visiting the area!
This tour was both really good and a bit disappointing. On the website it says you'll have 6 stops: - Blue Cave - awesome, highly recommend experiencing this - Monk Seal Cave - skipped - Stiniva Cove - advertised as a swim/snorkel. We stopped for less than 5 minutes to look at it. There was no swimming. - Budikovac Island - nice relaxing swim stop - Pakleni Islands - skipped - Hvar - awesome, highly recommend. We walked up to the fort to look over the town and then had a nice lunch on one of the side streets. So we were disappointed that only 3 out of the advertised 6 stops were made. After the Blue Cave stop they dropped us off at Komiza for an hour instead. But there was no communication as to why. The seas were fairly calm that day so I don't think it was a weather thing. We would've rathered the advertised stops, we didn't need a second stop in a town when we had the 2 hour Hvar stop coming up later in the day anyway.
Dear Guest, Thank you for your feedback. We're glad you enjoyed the Blue Cave, Budikovac, and Hvar, and appreciate you sharing your experience of the itinerary. . Safe travels, Šugaman Tours
There was a scheduling mix up. Departure time was different than communicated. We didn’t get to go. We were pleased that we got a full refund.
We had booked this tour. Unfortunately, it was cancelled at 9PM the evening before. We were unable to fix a different tour for the day and had to change our plans. I recommend to book a tour directly from one of the stands at the harbour. There you can also see with which kind of boat you are going.
Really great day, beautiful itinerary and great crew. Good balance of stops and travel. Make sure you bring a hoody and recommend a scarf/blanket. Recommend seasickness tablets as it gets choppy!!
This was a fantastic day! Speed boat from Split to gorgeous islands! The blue cave was phenomenally beautiful! Being able to swim in the crisp blue waters was fantastic. The beaches and scenery were lovely. Our guides Ante & Marieta made the day fun with their music and information. Hvar was lovely. We’d definitely recommend this trip!
