This trip was amazing. Our first stop was the Blue Cave which was spectacular. We then had breakfast on island of Vis... we headed to Blue Lagoon on Paklenica island... ended tour at Hvar island where we had time to explore the sights and get some great gelato. Tour guides were great! Highly recommend

We had the best time on our 6-island fast boat tour with Bože and Karlo! From start to finish, they were incredible guides—fun, knowledgeable, and made the whole day an absolute blast. Every stop was beautiful and well-timed, and they made sure we were always safe, comfortable, and having a great time. Their energy and humor made the experience even more special. Truly a highlight of our trip—highly recommend this tour, especially with Bože and Karlo leading the way!

Amazing experience

Emiliano_S, Jul 2026
Fun boat ride hopping waves at the beat of the music. Breathtaking spots. You can't miss the blue cave!

Amazing

Jennifer_T, Jul 2026
Wow. Rarely are rough seas a positive feature to a sea tour, but our Captain Heinz and mate Clara were in their A game and everyone had a blast on the “boat rodeo” on the way back to port. They were able to get us in as the second to last group of the day to see the Blue Cave, which was incredible. That spot is very sea condition dependent. All the other stops- Komiza, Hvar and Pakleni Islands were all amazing and unique in their own way. They kept a very positive and upbeat vibe and this trip was fully enjoyed by guests of all age ranges. Their boats and also set up a lot more favorably if the sea gets choppy. Awesome experience!

We had a great day with Emil and Denis! They were knowledgeable and made sure we had a great day visiting the blue cave and other islands.

Melissa_L, Jul 2026
Great experience. Great guides. 100% recommend The ride itself was part of the experience too. So fun

Below expectation

Erwin_A, Jun 2026
The day we booked ended up being a windy and off/on rain & sunny day. They notified us upon arrival that the blue cave was closed with the option to reschedule or get a refund. Most of us decided to continue assuming we would be able to proceed with the other islands/Hvar. Unfortunately we only got off the boat at 3 places total (including Hvar). We were told we could swim at some beaches but not offered any snorkel gear. At Stiniva (?) we were in a cove far from shore & they said we could swim to the beach if we wanted. Of course, everyone declined because it was a long intimidating swim so they moved onto the next location. During the tour we had 3 (1 hour) trips on the boat. It was a lot of speed boat time where you straddle the seat in 12 rows of 2 people. It is not relaxing - you have to hold onto the grab bar in front of you or risk falling off. Maybe it was the weather or the lack of communication but sadly this tour did not meet my expectations for what we paid.

Too much to see!!!

Michelle_G, May 2026
Didn’t get to go into blue cave given the weather conditions but that’s out of our guides’ control. Mario and Peter were great! The other islands were beautiful and it was definitely worth the money!

Truly amazing

Alvina_L, Apr 2026
A must do. Purely magical! Fun speedboat ride with awesomw music. did not get sick or wet. Nikola drove the boat so well

Rock and Roll!!!

Lori_M, Oct 2025
We had a fabulous day yesterday jetting around the islands with our friend Capitan Magnifico Emil! The man can read some waves! What could have been a bumpy disaster turned into an amazing roller coaster. I haven’t laughed that hard and long in a while. Capitan Emil had the perfect mixed tape playing the entire day. Emil also shared so many interesting facts with us. The islands were picture perfect. Until we meet again my friend!!! Buckle Up!

Fast, but possibly very bumpy!

Becky_C, Oct 2025
Wind was too strong and the boat ride was very uncomfortable! The boat has a flat bottom so if conditions are at all choppy you feel all the bumps. We held on for dear life and got quite jarred and wet.

Exceptional, breathtaking and marvelous experience!

Patricia_F, Sep 2025
Clara our guide and Bruno the skipper were professional, exceptional and fun! They elevated our experience for our group of 9ppl celebrating a milestone birthday. The tour itself is a must do! Most tours are either 3 or 5 island but this one was 6 islands and every one of them has its own unique charm. Thank you for the on point Playlist and the speed boat donuts! We had a blast!

Deepak_A, Sep 2025
Its a raft boat. If the weather is bad, do not take the trip. Hvar was excellent however we did not go to the 6 islands as the weather was bad. The ride was pretty bad.

Great tour, would recommend!

Paola_R, Sep 2025
This was a great tour! The blue cave was closed on the day we went but they added alternatives. It was honestly a very fun and enjoyable day. Something to keep in mind: The seating on the boat is saddle style. My boyfriend and I are both 25 years old and fit and it was pretty rough lol! A little sore the next day, especially because there were big waves on the day we went and it was very bumpy, but honestly it’s not a huge deal. I definitely would not recommend this to younger kids or older adults with hip/back pain because it’s definitely not the comfiest set up. But everywhere we went was beautiful and it was a great price. They played music also which was nice, and they offered to bring a couple to a nearby ferry when they wanted to leave the tour early which was also nice. They are also very punctual and when they say to be at the boat by 11:45, it means they are literally pulling out of the port at 11:45. Which makes sense, but as Americans we thought 11:46 would be fine and they were already pulling out and thankfully came back for us haha thank gosh. 🤣 But just try to be on time or early!

Best tour in Split!

John_T, Aug 2025
Amazing day out, one of the best tours in Europe! You’ll have a blast!! Highly recommend good crew who took us around they knew all the ins and outs!

5 island tour

Angela_V, Jul 2025
The 5 island tour brings you to 5 islands where you can visit the island s but there is only 2 islands where you can swim for 30 minutes. For an 12 hour trip that is way to short. More time for snorkling will improve the trip.

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Thank you for your feedback! We understand how important swimming and snorkeling are for many of our guests. We’d like to clarify that the tour includes a full hour for swimming and snorkeling at the Pakleni Islands and 30 minutes at the stunning Stiniva Cove. Additionally, it’s possible to swim at nearly every stop throughout the day, including Komiža, Hvar, and Milna - if you prefer swimming over sightseeing. We aim to offer a flexible experience that lets each guest choose how to enjoy their time on the islands. We appreciate your input and will continue to improve based on our guests’ experiences!

Experience the Thrill

Pranav_B, Jun 2025
If I have to bundle up fearful, fun, exciting, adrenaline; then one word best suited for the experience would be - THRILLING ! Never had I ever imagined, that my first speedboat experience would be so breathtaking. Toto travel has some really experienced experts who ride and sail boat precisely. But if you want the pro of the pros then I would highly recommend Emil and Tonchi. If you are in for the thrill, then Emil would ensure you get every bit of it. We visited 6 beautiful places, but the boat ride was absolutely worth it. If I have to one feedback, then I would just say to include Blue lagoon visit within the price range, or with a slight increase.

Amazing day trip

Zoe_T, May 2025
Amazing trip packed with different stops and visits, felt like I saw so many different towns and places all in a day. Speed boat was super fun and the guides were brilliant with all the information they provided

Blue Caves and five islands tour, fantastic, but not if you're faint hearted with speed and open water.

Gabrielle_B, Sep 2024
Speed boat, once I got used to it, was exhilarating. Blue Cave, all that I imagined and more. Other stops lovely. Mia and Toni were supberb hosts and crew.

Beautiful day in boat!

Marilyn_C, Sep 2024
We were able to see many beautiful places in just one day. I was really amazed, it is really worth the price!

Awesome day

Mark_P, Aug 2024
It’s a fast boat and you get a lot of sun (no cover) but overall an amazing time, great music while traveling, and the sites were great. The guide was awesome as well. Super glad we booked it and went with Toto. I was hesitant about 10 hrs in a boat in August but the time went by in a flash. Overall a great day and an easy way to see all of the islands in a day without being stuck on a ferry. The Blue Cave was magnificent.

Very complete tour to visit island off the coast of Split

Cdric_N, Jul 2024
Great memories from this visit starting with the beautiful blue cave thanks to our skippers Gea and Nando. We went through Vis, Paklinski islands stopping at the blue lagoon of Budikovac for swim break. We finished with the discovery of the very nice town of Hvar.

Excellent Trip

Daniel_W, Jun 2024
This trip was fantastic, allowing us to visit numerous islands all in one day and with plenty of time at each location.

10/10

Andrew_N, May 2024
Great way to explore the islands around Split. Would definitely recommend if you need an activity to fill the day.

Unlucky day

Szeming_C, Oct 2023
If blue cave cancel, my advice is : pls ask for full refund & pick other day tour instead to do partial refund, we only hv €20 refund but change to 3 island tour , 1 island is Hvar & other 2 are small and not famous & we returned back 4pm instead 6pm , not worth on this alternative option.

Dangerous and painful

Donna_A, Aug 2023
Ok so I’m gonna start with the worst first as it’s the most important. Blue cave was closed, ok no biggie, at least refund that ticket but the problem was this, instead we go to this submarine cave and I thought ok cool but instead of pulling up to the dock they pull to the side and make us crawl up this 4ft ledge. I had to use my legs/knees to do that and scrapped and bruised them all up. Like why would you risk injuries to your passengers? I even said, I can’t do that. “Oh yes you can I’ll help you” totally wrong. I got pictures of how high it was trying to climb up off a shaky boat and then getting back in the same way. My legs are completely sore today. Shame on you guys! Now for the other part of this review. The day was 80% in the boat in the hot Sun. The boat is fast which is cool for about an hour. Like a water roller coaster. After an hour your whole body hurts from it as it bounces you almost out the boat. We didn’t go to blue cave which was the highlight but I understand they can’t predict the tide. The next stop was supposed to be the blue lagoon and we didn’t go. Not sure why it’s a lagoon like a cove and I was there the day before. After the submarine fiasco we went to hvar and some other crap cove then went to brac for literally 30 min. Like I said all boat nothing else. I will suggest age limits on this tour as the boat ride is bouncy and actually seems dangerous. My body hurts from it. I’m 50 but in good health, been walking 10 plus miles a day here in split and 50 plus flights of stairs daily for the last four weeks so it’s not age, however I wouldn’t suggest this for an older person or child. After the first ride to vis to wait for the blue cave there was 20 yr olds asking for life jackets. It was just a horrible experience all around but the danger to put someone in crawling up a ledge was wrong. I requested my money back and hopefully they do the right thing because they’re just lucky I’m only sore bruised and scraped and not seriously injured although my kneecaps are killing me from using them to crawl up the ledge. What if someone would have fell? Totally wrong. Don’t do this tour. I couldn’t get off fast enough and actually debated finding a ferry back to split and saying f it and them.

Overall a great experience

Emma_S, Jul 2023
Overall it was a nice experience, the landscapes were very pretty and there were snorkel masks in case we wanted some which was very nice. Also we got to visit the blue cave way before everyone else arrived so we didn’t have to wait the usual one hour. (and the entrance tickets are included so that’s a bonus) The swimming spots were also great. However, it is a speed boat so that comes with positive/negative stuff, it is very nice for the sensations and everything, but it is also very bumpy sometimes (so take seriously the warning about not going if you have back pain) and the shock absorbers on our boat kept hitting our leg quite hard which started to be painful near the end of the trip. Also the guides were very nice but merely gave us any facts about the islands we stopped at, we were expecting more informations and when we passed next to the Pakleni islands they didn’t even mention it to us so we didn’t really see them. But apart from that it was a very cool experience and I don’t regret it at all since we got to see so many great things in one day.

Blue Grotto Experience

LyssaJenness_R, Jul 2022
Great island stops…..must do adventure especially if you like some excitement (the speedboat). Capt was experienced, and lots of time on islands to explore at your own pace.

Great island experience!

Jenni_B, May 2022
Hvar is stunning, the Blue Cave was an awesome sight to see, and swimming in the Adriatic at the Blue Lagoon was so cold but invigorating.
