Captain & mate did a tremendous job. Delay at Blue cave small bump but still made all stops and had a great day.
Boat was a bit choppy but if you sit in the back it is much more smooth. Blue cave is expensive but a must do activity. We skipped the green cave. Loved all the swimming spots. Not many fish to see when snorkeling
Definitely do this tour! Each island is unique. The Blue Cave for sure was my favorite! Our captain Luca and skipper Mario were awesome! Just as a warning, waters can be a little choppy, causing the boat to jump in the water. Avoid if you get sea sick easily or sit towards the rear. I personally enjoyed the exciting ride! Plenty of time was given for free exploration, swimming, eating, etc. Book this tour!
Awesome experience. Guides were great. Really didn't know how to expect, but was a highlight of the trip.
Good amount of stops and time at the different stops. Good amount of people on the tour. We both had a captain and a tour guide which was nice.
We had a great day on the water. Beautiful areas to take short swims, blue cave was worth the price of entry and the crew was very friendly. We packed snacks on the boat and were very happy that we did!
This was an absolutely amazing sailing tour! We recommend this one highly with this company. The guides were very fun and friendly and knowledgeable. They made some recommendations during our stops and kept us on schedule so much so that we were able to make a really cool "secret" stop they don't usually have time to make.
Great whole day boating experience exploring the islands and highlights around Hvar with our great Capt Chala! He was insightful about the history and geologic details of our destinations; our ride was smooth sailing and had great beats so we really enjoyed being on his boat. The only change I would suggest is spending less time in the end at the Pakleni Island beach club (loud and expensive) and more time at the awesome natural phenomenon of the Stivina Beach.
This boat trip was absolutely amazing and well worth the cost. The Blue Cave was truly outstanding, and I highly recommend paying the extra fee to visit it.
The skippers were incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and fun, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The boat itself was very comfortable, with plenty of space to relax throughout the journey.
I would suggest bringing some snacks, especially if you’re planning a full day on the water. The scenery was breathtaking, with crystal-clear blue waters everywhere we went. Overall, it was a perfect day and an unforgettable experience. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone visiting the area.
Loved the boat speed, but that makes it feel bumpy. Great choices and times for stops. Blue cave was worth it!
Great day on the water! Blue cave is as amazing as it looks in pictures! We stopped at some of the most beautiful beaches I’ve ever seen. We had lunch at an adorable little island town. Our captain, Luka, was the best!
Our day in the water seeing the various islands and swimming in the blue water was awesome. Our captains were very informative and courteous! They showed us some of the out of the way places and structure. We weren’t able to see the blue cave due to high tide. Next time maybe. Highly recommend!!
Great tour but not all inclusive. The guides were awesome. The boat ride is bumpy but we did not get sea sick as they were moving fast. The Blue Cave is gorgeous.
Fabulous day on the water! We loved snorkeling in the crystal clear waters, going into the Blue Cave and visiting a few small islands. Our driver/tour operators were very knowledgeable and so welcoming. I will say the seas are pretty choppy at times and you bounce around a lot, but they do warn this before hand.
Beautiful day island hopping off Hvar! The boat was nice and the assistant Dora was so sweet. We didn’t do the green cave but the blue cave was totally worth it. Really convenient pickup point! It would be nice if they advertised an ability to bring your own drinks and snacks but we were able to purchase them on our own at some of the stops
no need to read the other reviews. JUST BOOK IT!
We were worried that with 12 people the boat would feel constricting. NOPE- We felt like we were on it alone!! It was perfect! The itenary, stops, time, music selection- everything was amazing. Thank you!!
A great time with great people and skipper, great locations to swim and eat at, really made the most of the day trip.
Boat captain had a bad attitude. Go with another company.
Ask any question and he rolls his eyes and acts annoyed. It was uncomfortable for many on board and ruined the experience.
The islands and places we visited we’re uneventful and boring with no thought into creating a lasting memory.
We had so much fun on our trip! Our guide was a clear expert but also fun and relaxed. I would recommend everyone going on this trip bring some snacks and drinks (they have a cooler). Water shoes are also helpful for one particular beach.
Fantastic experience - the blue cave exceeded our expectations and the captain and his mate were wonderful. The boating prowess of the captains of the smaller boats are impressive as was our own tour crew👍
Fantastic time. The guides were so friendly and very knowledgeable. It was truly a wonderful day on the water. The blue caves were 100% worth it
5 Star experience from start to finish with Captain Luca and Dora! We booked this two days before without reading the reviews. The night before I looked into what was included and also read some reviews and was a bit worried about what we were getting into. We arrived for our 10:30 departure and were placed with Luca and Dora and a total of 12 passengers, all of whom turned out to be a mix of awesome people!
Luca and Dora were a great team and clearly cared about their passengers having a great experience. The first stop was the Blue Cave which was a fantastic experience. At first I didn’t understand why they didn’t bake the cost of the Blue Cave tour into the price but given the Blue Cave tour is run through the government and the way they sell and board boats there, it absolutely makes sense. You do have the option to not spend the extra money on that stop but highly recommend doing so.
From there he asked the group if we wanted to get lunch in Vis with a lot of great restaurant options or wait until later in the tour to stop at Palmizana for lunch where options are slim. We all agreed to have lunch as our next stop. Some folks brought their own food and ate it at the beach in Komiza (in Vis) while others explored the town or grabbed lunch at one of the many restaurant choices. Luca came through again and suggested Dal Mar restaurant and we had one of the best meals (if not the best) of our trip. We got the Sea Bream and potatoes and spinach, so good. It was also far cheaper than Hvar.
From there we went to a variety of other beaches and got to swim and snorkel, all of which were great.
I’m guessing this experience really depends on your captain and Luca and Dora made sure it was an excursion to remember!!
Great tour! We visited 3 beaches for swimming, the beautiful blue cave, and a lunch stop in Vis. Because we didn’t have to wait long for the Blue Cave, we had a great lunch stop in Vis, which had many affordable options. We honestly did not like the stop in Palmizana, which had many overpriced touristy bars, and we would have preferred a stop at another beach, but we still enjoyed the trip overall.
Great fun! Met some very fun women that enhanced the party! Blue and green cave were definitely worth the experience!!
Excellent tour. Blue cave was fantastic. The vessel was comfortable and spacious. There is some time between destinations but enjoyed the time on the water.
Amazing could not recommend enough. Pay a little extra for a nice boat with a limit of 12 pple best decision.
The crew was fantastic and very friendly! The boats are well sized for the number of people that they allow onboard, so there is plenty of room to be comfortable. When in Hvar, we strongly recommend this outfit!
awesome time! we are so glad we did this for our trip it was beautiful and an amazing day! Highly recommend
It was awesome docking at piers, or jumping/stepping off the boat straight into the water to swim up to magnificent beaches with snorkelling gear (and inflatables for the non confident swimmers). Our skipper Bojo was very pleasant. He was superb at keeping us safe and well informed. The blue cave is a must see/do for a reason. Tickets were extra and can have long queues. We were lucky with a shorter 25min wait overall as well as a different skipper with hilarious humour and excellent skipper skills for the cave.
Be prepared, Lunch and beach bars are a little on the pricey side as you may expect from popular parts of Croatia. Everyone on the trip loved what they consumed as well as the surroundings. Well done Bojo and the operator for looking after us.
The Blue Cave on Bisevo Island was the highlight of the day very beautiful. The boat however was too small, over crowed and the ride was very bumpy & uncomforable.
