Top Split Day Trips

I highly recommend this day trip. I chose it because the other option I explored of going to Plitvice would have required a much longer bus ride to/from Split, and I didn't want to spend half the day on the bus. Our guide Gabriella was excellent. She was a local who was knowledgeable about the area, the history, and she was very organized. She had the foresight to suggest modifying the planned itinerary so that we would get to Krka later in the day when the crowds wouldn't be so big. It was a good call. The park was amazing and got some incredible pictures of waterfalls and even a close up of a cool looking frog. The wine tasting was fun as well--be sure to go for the prosciutto platter. I highly recommend this day trip as a way to escape the city for the day and not have to worry about the driving or parking. It's totally worth it.

I would highly recommend taking this tour. Our skipper Luka was great! He was really informative about the history of the islands and about what to see and where to go at each stop. He was good fun, had a great playlist on throughout and made sure everyone felt safe both going on and off the boat, travelling to each island, and during the choppier ride back to Split. He also accommodated us seeing the cove featured in a scene from Mamma Mia and stopped briefly on the way home to let us get a better look at some dolphins that were swimming beside the boat. On top of that, he stopped to help a fellow skipper with a boat full of people who was stranded because rope had got tangled around the propellers, stopping the boat from moving. Luka to the rescue 😄. In terms of the sights, the blue cave is a must see, a really good experience and beautiful. The rest of the scenery - coves, lagoons, caves, forts, marinas and islands - are stunning too...postcard pretty and you get brilliant views from the boat and from the islands themselves. You also get plenty of time to explore the islands when you stop off. At a practical level I would recommend bringing sunscreen, a towel and a change of clothes for after the swim (if you choose to do it) and sunglasses. For those that it applies to, I wouldn't bother doing your hair or make-up beforehand as the boat ride and swimming will make sure that doesn't last long 😄. If that will bother you then I'd advise bringing a hair brush and whatever you need to reapply make-up. You'll get an opportunity to freshen up at the stops. You can get water and snacks/food at the Vis and Hvar island stops where there are reasonably priced shops, restaurants, bakeries, etc. so bring some cash/cards. If you want to stay dry on the boat ride home I'd suggest sitting at the back. We didn't and loved every minute of it, but the experience wouldn't be for everyone- it's fast, bumpy and wet, but fun! The whole tour was an amazing experience, well priced and hassle free...you just book, show up and you're looked after from there. It's an early start (6.30 a.m.) and is all day - we got back to Split at around 5 p.m. - but completely worth it. Definitely 5 stars from us!

We had such a great time! The guy Frankie was really friendly and told us a lot of good stories about the area. The Boat had comfortable seats that looked way better than the year of the Boat that we saw. It was a super fun ride, even though it was long we didn’t even notice. Highly recommend this tour to anyone of any age!

We enjoyed our time in Trogir and Split very much. The free time in Trogir was just enough to see things on our own and do a little shopping. The transportation was a bus that was clean and the driver did a great job. There were 31 people in our group and 2 tour guides. They divided us up so we had smaller numbers with each guide. Both guides were very knowledgeable and friendly. Our time in Split was also good. Lots of history here to be shared. We enjoyed walking thru the bazaar after. My only negative comment would be that the tour was a little long on a really hot day. That’s no one’s fault though! We enjoyed our time!

This trip was amazing! The staff and service was outstanding with really nice food included and an open bar. Everyone on the boat was enjoying themselves with a really nice atmosphere all round. The boat wasn’t packed like some of the other tour boats you could see so it was really comfortable onboard! Was such a memorable experience and would love to do it again.

Our tour guide, Лео, was amazing. Just as the Brazilian government declared Pelé a national treasure to prevent him from leaving Brazil, I’m imploring President Zoran Milanović to do the same for Лео. A tour of the Krka Waterfalls would NEVER be the same without him. It’s not a risk the good people of Croatia should be willing to take!! Also, give this man a raise…rumor is he has two cats that he has to put through college!

Really fun boat ride to smaller islands that you may not have the time to see! The driver was great and made it super fun! HIs name started with a B unsure how to spell it and his assistant was Mila. Glad it was 5 hours as it was plenty of time. There was enough time at each stop to explore and grab food/sight see. Also it was reasonably priced.

Had a great time. The crew made the experience way better. Unfortunately the weather kind of sucked which is out of everyone's control, the crew still made it worth our while, with the music and pouring all the drinks. The crew was extremely attentive.
