We had a wonderful half-day tour to the Blue Lagoon and two islands while in port on a cruise ship. Pjero was our skipper and provided us with an incredible experience! The tour takes place on a zodiac boat, which was super fun. We actually stayed completely dry sitting up front, but there are seats in the back if you prefer a smoother ride. We started our day in Maslinica, enjoying a local cafe before walking down to the beach. The water is crystal clear, but the beach has larger pebbles, so I'd recommend bringing water shoes. Next, we headed to the Blue Lagoon for a refreshing swim right off the boat. The water is a stunning shade of blue! Afterward, we enjoyed some local wine on board and even had a surprise visit from a bartender on another boat, which was such a unique experience. We finished the day in Trogir, which unexpectedly had some of the best gelato and treats of our entire trip (which is saying a lot!). Definitely check out Dovani’s for their gelato and a delicious local pastry called rafioli. Two things I loved about Pjero's approach: first, he happily took photos for us and shared his own. Second, he set up a WhatsApp group for all of us. This made it incredibly easy to communicate departure times, share local recommendations, and swap photos at the end of the day. While companies can't control who books, we lucked out with a fantastic group that made the day even more memorable. A quick tip on finding the meeting point: We had a little confusion finding the exact dock location. Because it was early in the season, the operators had moved locations from the prior year. The correct spot was updated in the Viator app, but it wasn't totally clear to us at first. We eventually found their kiosk all the way at the end of the dock with the help of another operator. The tour ended right on time, giving us a little extra time to explore Split before heading back to the ship. Highly recommended!

Quite a long day so be organised with snacks and drinks. Time is of the essence on this trip to have full benefit of the guide. Mate the guide was brilliant. A lot of work from him to keep us informed of all the timings necessary as the day unfolded. Can’t speak too highly of him. A great day out coupled with great weather, stories from Mate and the scenery plus history makes this a day to remember

We had a great trip! Kristina was a great driver and very informative! She kept up to date with the boarder crossings to figure out where we would have the least wait to get across. We were picked up at 6:30 am and returned around 3:30 pm. She had great recommendations at each stop! Worth the extra money for the private tour!
