Mairn is a great guide we really enjoyed our tour. The weather was abit cold but shopping at The Mall of Split cured the disappointment of not going to Trogir.
Thank you so much for your kind words! 😊 I’m really glad you still enjoyed the day, even if the weather didn’t fully cooperate. Sometimes a good shopping session at Mall of Split does the trick! 🛍️ It was a pleasure having you on the tour, and I hope we get the chance to explore Trogir together next time – hopefully with sunshine! 🌞 All the best, Marin 🙏
Excellent service from Marin!!! Marin is very attentive, makes excellent recommendations and is very punctual. You have no problem waiting a while. Makes the best recommendations. We went Trogir, where we recommend where to have breakfast, we did wine tasting and finally a tour of the center of Split.
¡Muchísimas gracias por tu linda reseña! 🙏 Fue un verdadero placer acompañarles durante su día en Croacia. Me alegra mucho saber que disfrutaron Trogir, la cata de vinos y el paseo por Split — y que mis recomendaciones les ayudaron a vivir una experiencia completa y relajada. Siempre estoy aquí para lo que necesiten, ¡ojalá nos volvamos a ver pronto! 😊 – Marin
We took an amazing private boat day tour to Trogir and Maslina and stopped for swimming and fun. The trip was an incredible experience that we will never forget. The skipper Marko and deckhand Kata were the friendliest people you could ever meet. I highly recommend a private boat rental with skipper to spend the day doing whatever you want!!
Thank you so much for this fantastic review! 🙏 I’m thrilled to hear that your private boat tour to Trogir and Maslina was such a memorable experience. Marko and Kata will be so happy to hear your kind words — they truly love what they do and it shows! Private boat days are all about freedom, fun, and discovering hidden gems at your own pace, and I’m so glad you got to enjoy exactly that. Thank you again for the recommendation — you’re always welcome back on board with us! 🚤🌞 – Marin
