We had a blast on this full day private boat around the islands of Split. Our skipper, Edi, was great with communication and had a great itinerary for us. Plenty of swimming, time for a coffee, a not rushed stop for lunch, and an afternoon swim that was magical. It’s worth the time and worth the money.
Great full day excursion to several different swim spots, and islands for lunch and later for homemade ice cream. Our skipper, Josko was great, and helped us decide where to go according to what we were looking for. Full day from 9:00am to 5:30pm
The best thing about our tour was our skilled skipper, Petar. The 4 types of excursion locations listed in the options are not 2 hours each in duration - going to the Blue cave as an example, is a much longer trip and more viable from Dubrovnik (vs Split). I would have appreciated more flexibility in lunch location - multiple boats from the same operator stopped at the same restaurant.
Private boat organised perfectly well, Petra our skipper was very knowledgeable, Kind and patient with the two kids on the boat, and followed our brief to avoid crowded bays, or bars, and instead take full advantage of the boat and the islands nearer to split. Beautiful bays, water, we all had a great time thank you!
Amazing water, went anywhere we wanted. Our skipper was easy to work with and found our boat no problem. While we knew we would pay for fuel, no idea it would be another 218 euros on top of the 100 for skipper. Would have been helpful to have that information ahead of time. I barely had enough cash to cover.
Amazing experience with captain petar he was extremely knowledgeable and courteous. We loved our day out with him. We visited vis island, the war tunnels, hvar and he found us a wonderful spot to swim. Very reliable company 5* customer service. Mario was so helpful with the booking and any questions I had prior to our trip. Thank you for a wonderful Croatian adventure.
Thank you very much for the kind words! Happy you've enjoyed your time on the boat!
Enjoyed having a private tour to the Blue Lagoon and Underwater Museum. We even had time to visit a third spot with clear clean water to snorkel In.
Great tour of Hvar and Solta island. Our skipper was Roko and he did a good job. Very cordial and friendly
We had a fantastic experience! The provider was very flexible and created a great offer that perfectly suited our needs. They were also very accommodating and made sure all of our special requests were taken care of, which we really appreciated. Our captain was friendly, professional, and made the whole trip enjoyable. Everything was well organized, and we had a wonderful time on the water. Overall, it was an excellent trip, and we would highly recommend this boat provider to anyone looking for a great experience! *****
