Had an amazing day on this tour! We walked from the cruise terminal to the appointed meeting spot, where Matteo was our Captain. He was amazing! The Split beaches are breathtaking and I'd recommend this experience to anyone!

This boat tour was amazing! Our skipper was amazing, he shared a lot of information about the area and sites and spoke with us as much as he could. The stops never felt rushed, and each on was beautiful beyond compare! I would recommend this cruise to anyone looking to both explore and have a nice day out on the water.

Snorkeling at blue lagoon...

Cherith_L, Sep 2025

Snorkeling at blue lagoon was great and lunch at the beach was perfect. You could negotiate the price of the lounge chairs based on the time you’re there at the beach.

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Dear Guest, Thank you for your feedback. We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed snorkeling at the Blue Lagoon and had a perfect lunch at the beach. Kind regards, Gray Line

Kavita_B, Sep 2025

Excellent trip. The skipper and sailor were fantastic and extremely friendly. Gray line tell you to arrive 30 minutes prior to departure. The 2 people at reception were on their phones and ignored us for 5 minutes. We were told to wait outside in the blazing sun. They were not friendly or welcoming unlike the boat crew. Disappointing service from office staff.

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Dear Guest, Thank you for your feedback and for highlighting the great work of our skipper and sailor. We kindly ask guests to arrive earlier in order to allow sufficient time for the check-in process before departure. We are pleased to hear you still had an excellent trip overall. Kind regards, Gray Line

A must do in Croatia!

Great views/destinations but poor company organisation

Geno_N, Aug 2025

The views were scenic and the boat was a lot of fun but I thought it was inconsiderate and disorganised of Gray Line to place me with a group who had booked together as a party of ten and spoke a different language to me. This somewhat ruined the experience.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Dear Guest, Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed the scenic views and the boat experience. Please note that for more privacy and a fully personalized experience, booking a private tour is always an option. Kind regards, Gray Line

An Awesome Day at the Beach

Wild Ride

Daisy_S, Aug 2025

Not for anyone with back/neck issues due to some rough water bumps, but fun for others! The islands are very nice but be courteous as the English on islands is not as perfected as in the cities (some complained of 'rude' service but the helpers just did not understand). Beautiful places, worth seeing

A Scenic and Fun-Filled Island Adventure (Mostly)

Kartik_G, Jul 2025

This trip was a smart way to see a bunch of beautiful spots without breaking the bank—or your schedule. Hopping between islands was not only efficient, it was actually a blast. Trogir? Absolute gem. It’s charming in that “you have to be there to get it” kind of way—pictures don’t do it justice. The Blue Lagoon? Honestly, a bit of a letdown. It’s got the hype, but it felt more “Instagram trap” than natural wonder. Now, the lagoon with the shipwreck? That’s where the magic happened. Great spot for snorkeling and soaking up the vibes. Major props to our skipper Frankie—kept the energy up, the music on point, and the day running smooth.

Good day trip.

Matthew_B, Jul 2025

I liked the sequence of activities. Trogir was a nice spot for a bit of history and some gelato. The blue lagoon was lackluster, but a decent place to waste some time. I liked the shipwreck quite a bit. Bring snorkel gear if you are intent on experiencing it. Guides were helpful and friendly.

It was so much fun! Day in the sun, swimming. We loved snorkelling around the shipwreck. The blue lagoon was beautiful- maybe a bit overrated. Trogir a quant town. Our skipper Mattio was amazing and did his best to get us back in time before our cruiseliner left- we were early. Please note that you spend a lot of time traveling on the speedboat. All loved it but if the sea is rougher in the afternoon the trip can be hard bumping. Also note they only give goggles- so maybe a good idea to take snorkelling gear as that will enable you to see more underwater for longer periods of time.

Beautiful Coast and Water

Jennifer_D, Jun 2025

Beautiful day on the water. Did this activity as a stop from the cruise line - plenty of time to get back to the ship. Wonderful way to spend a day.

Arlene_S, Jun 2025

Loved the opportunity to swim at a few places and see the country. Our tour guide was very informative.

Wonderful half day on the water.

Melissa_M, Jun 2025

A delightful half day traveling from place to place. Travel by speedboat was tons of fun. Chances for drinks and food along the way. Guides were knowledgeable and warm.

Amazing Tour & Skipper

Geneva_B, Jun 2025

The over all experience...

Mahesh_C, May 2025

The over all experience is great, Trogir exploration is my favorite among all. I personally wish life jackets were provided for snorkeling in Blue lagoon. Personally not a big fan of racing with other boats on our journey in exploring places

Split and Trogir by boat

Angela_W, May 2025

It was a great day to be out on the water. We booked this trip last minute and it turned out to be a wonderful idea. There were only eight of us on the boat and it was amazing. Our boatl mates even turned out to be from the same country we are. The driver was courteous, knowledgeable and took us to all the very interesting spots. He also gave us history and facts on Croatia and was very interesting. Would recommend this to anybody.

The three island tour

Darrin_C, May 2025

It was a nice boat trip…water was too cold this time of year for our liking. Very organized. Our guide had opportunity to be more engaging, but he didn’t. The stops were good for site seeing and just relaxing.

Fabulous half day

Angela_R, Oct 2024

Excellent trip, great guys with personality that took us on the boat. Enough time to get off and swim, wander around. Fantastic day. Had the best time!

Response from Host, Nov 2024

Dear Thank you for sharing your experience! It sounds like you had a fantastic time swimming, exploring, and relaxing along the way. Hope you take more trips like this soon—thanks again for the recommendation! Kind regards

Good, but could have had better tour leaders

Stephanie_M, Sep 2024

The boat driver was not very chatty and the gal leading the tour was not super interactive. They were both pleasant, but it's always more enjoyable when they seem to be enjoying themselves as well. The boat ride was wild and so fun with the waves! The water is so beautiful. I did enjoy myself, but had a much more enjoyable experience with another company earlier that week!

A beautiful day on the glorious sea.

Kimberly_D, Sep 2024

Fun and informative guides that went out of their way to accommodate our family. On time, on point, on the sea!

Fun excursion

Tracey_J, Aug 2024

Swimming in the blue lagoon was amazing. The waters were so clear and refreshing. Loved the speedboat ride. Our captain was friendly and very competent.

Wise is the best guide you will ever find!

Maren_B, Aug 2024

This was an amazing experience. I recommend it to everyone! From the crew to the places visited it was absolutely stellar.

It was fantastic! The captain was super. We coming the next year too.

Lengyel_T, Aug 2024

We were very scared at the beginning, but the captain guided us well, and we were in wonderful places. By the end we were enjoying the speed. It was a fantastic experience. We will come again next year.

Terrible experience - doesn't worth the price

Shir_G, Jul 2024

We ordered this half day trip since the description looked exactly what we needed. Instead of 5 hours and a half trip we got a 4 hours and 15 minutes. Our boat's driver got late and we got only 15-20 minutes in Shipwreck, one hour in blue Lagoon and 5 minutes at Trogir after we complained to the driver that only offered us to take pictures from the boat and said the stop at Trogir wasn't planned. Not recommended at all!! As it's a loss of money and doesn't worth more than 30-40 euros maximum (and that's expensive for what it was). In anycase if you buy directly from grayline office in Split you will pay 60 euros per person and you might get a partial refund from them as some others on the boat got since they booked through them.

Adventure on the Adriatic

Karen_K, Jul 2024

I enjoyed swimming at 2 locations and relaxing in Trogir. The water is a beautiful blue at the lagoon and very clear at the swim up bar place. Our guide was very competent on advising us on safety and best areas to swim. Please note if you are over 65 years old the Blue Lagoon is very rocky and difficult to get into the water and out. Our guide and other passengers were very helpful otherwise I wouldn’t have been able to do it. Also the boat ride is very rocky. The guides know what they are doing but if you want a smooth ride skip this tour. They have to go fast to get to all locations. Thanks for a great tour.

The best of the best!

laurie_B, Jul 2024

Far surpassed our expectations!!! Perina & Vice were wonderful skipper and hosts! Our 11 year old twins had so much fun they wanted to go back the next day! The timing, ambiance , music , islands were perfect! We have been on other similar excursions and this has been the best! Thank you Perina and Vice !

Not worth the money

Robert_S, Jul 2024

This trip was basically a boat ride to two beach bars and a tourist town. First we tried to cancel the reservation due to thunderstorms in the forecast. Of course gray line didn’t want to lose their money so we continued on the boat ride. Immediately the captain and helper tried changing the stops by telling us the shipwreck was not worth our time. It was cloudy so we took their advice. The alternative stop was not worth it either. The second stop Blue Lagoon was lame. The last stop in the town of Trogir was nice but crowded and then the forecast was accurate and thunderstorms lasted two hours. Once the rain started to let up, the captain still did not want to make the return ride back, which is fine but we had a cruise to catch and could not risk waiting. Our entire group of 12 people had to take taxis back to Split. We would have been much happier if the whole trip never started to begin with. The tour operator said they won’t reimburse for the taxis either. Two stars because the storms occurred while we were docked. It would have been one star if they occurred while we were on the boat. Don’t waste your money.

Disappointing

susan_p, Jun 2024

The description in the website is misleading. It clearly says “Stay refreshed throughout your experience with free bottled water” although when asked for water we were told it was not provided and the website was incorrect. It was 34 degrees! Website also says that snorkelling equipment is provided and this is also not the case. When asked they said they haven’t done this since Covid. So if you want to snorkel, either take your own equipment or take a trip with a different company. When we stopped to swim the crew were playing loud music, smoking & sunbathing which we didn’t feel was very professional. No safety briefing was carried and and no life jackets provided should you want one. Overall avoid.

Beautiful boat tour with friendly crew

Jordan_W, Jun 2024

Amazing boat tour with lovely friendly crew who were wonderful with our children. Stopped off at some beautiful spots. Really enjoyed it!

Response from Host, Jun 2024

Dear It sounds like you had a fantastic experience on the boat tour! It's great to hear that the crew was friendly and accommodating, especially with children. Thank you!

Perfect half day boat tour

Ariane_B, Jun 2024

This activity was the highlight of our trip to Split! We really enjoyed the stops we made and had enough time at each stop to relax a bit. The beaches we stopped at were some of the prettiest we’ve ever seen and Trogir was a very beautiful town
