Fantastic cruise the weather was very windy so wasn’t safe to travel to Hvar, however we got to see the sunken ship and the blue lagoon. Very organised cruise lunch was yummy and our host Ivo was fantastic. Kids had a blast jumping from the boat and swimming in the beautiful sea. Would highly recommend and we will definitely be back again.

It was a blast! We made 3 stops, all were great locations. We never felt rushed. Our crew was wonderful and funny! We loved the itinerary and met some great people on board.

The highlight of our trip to split!! Beautiful boat ride to warm turquoise waters, then stopped off at the beautiful Hvar for a wonder and lunch, and then had another dip on the sea while docked in Brac. The team were amazing, so helpful and bubbly. And even stepped in while we were docked to help a young girl on our boat who was being harassed as she was heading back aboard. Appreciated the vegan options, and the wine on tap!! Background chart music really added to the peace. Such a lovely day!!

Bonnie_E, Sep 2025
It was a great day to be out on the water. Weather was perfect. Hvar was stunning and enjoyed the look around. Last island, beach club was closed and we were not made aware of that before buying tickets and they arrived back in port a half early early.

The viator wasn’t working...

Behzad_V, Sep 2025
The viator site wasn’t working when i needed to find the boat company . After many attempts, it worked but the boat had already left.

Average tour

Gayatri_S, Sep 2025
Spent more time on the boat than on the island. Also please read itenary carefully...this covers Milna and not the famous Bol on Brac...

I liked the route of this tour. Hvar and the islands were good. The host was excellent too. Not so good: The boat was busy, so I didn’t get to sit with my friends. I had to sit inside with was uncomfortable like an overcrowded bus. Not something I really want on holiday. I didn’t enjoy the boat and this was a large part of the day as it’s not the fastest. Also, my wife couldn’t eat the burger and chips as she’s vegan. We only found this when boarding the boat in the morning. I regret booking this tour.

One of the best plans while stayingn several days in Split. Very Good value for money

Raul_R, Aug 2025
The tour was very funny and good value for money. A special thanks to Sandra and the crew of Grey Line in our boat. It is the best oportunity to know the city of Hvar from Split, combining one swimming/snorkeling session previsualiza in Pakleni islands (at 30 minutes sailing to Hvar) and ending with 1 and a half hours in a beach in Brac. The hamburguer offered as meal for the lunch was very good; We ordered two different types: beef and tuna and both very tasty. The drinks also good as indicated in the tour description: water, juice (something like flavoured water) and free wine since the lunch; other options available paying in the boat (with prices equal or lower than in a bar in Split).

Very well organised but...

Noreen_B, Aug 2025
Very well organised but very big group 120. 31degrees through the day so we expected to be very hot and tour guide Ivor tried at all times to keep this to a minimum when we were stopped. Grays and staff were all excellent and helpful.

Pretty Decent Experience

Adel_Q, Aug 2025
Only giving this three stars because we thought it was going to have “unlimited drinks” on the boat but we were only allowed to drink during lunch time and it was just wine. Additionally, they overcrowded the boat so many people were sitting on the floor of the boat. We couldn’t sit comfortably and had to sit inside. That said, the crew themselves were very nice and hospitable. Lunch was good as we got burgers. We also enjoyed the stops at the different islands. Beware the beaches are pebbly not sandy.

We highly recommend this...

Belen_S, Jul 2025
We highly recommend this tour. It was the best option we found in price-quality ratio and it didn’t let us down.

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Thank you for your kind words! Kind regards, Gray Line

Boat trip

Briana_K, Jul 2025
Evo and the crew were great. Efficient, knowledgeable, and fun. The islands and water were beautiful. Well worth the time.

Great trip to the islands next to Split! It was so much fun and the boat was comfortable.

Valentina_C, Jul 2025
Lovely trip to turquoise water! I especially loved the inflatable options and the sup for Pakleni islands! Would have loved to spend more time with these stuff. All the spots were gorgeous and I can 100% recommend it. Only minus is the food. The burger with beef was ok, but with veggies or tuna not so yummy.

Great day out exploring the islands

Amit_K, Jul 2025
Great day out. Well informed through out the day by the host. The boat was decent size for the number of people.

Change itinerary without notification

Mai_A, Jul 2025
Very disappointed at this line , they changed itinerary without letting us know .. they decided to take us to island and to swim in places without even being ready for it no life vest ! I had to pay for nothing will never use this Gray line cruise again !!

Good value for moneyv

Stacey_B, Jul 2025
We were unsure if we wanted a boat tour or a speedboat tour. We booked this one as we would visit hvar, brac and islands to snorkel. Overall it was good value for money. The food was good too. It lost a star for me as we were supposed to snorkel for 90 mins (the part we were looking forward to most) and we only got 45 mins. Which was disappointing. If I was to go back I would choose a speedboat tour with less people and thus was packed.

Fantastic Cruise

Dear guest, Thank you for your enthusiastic review! We’re so happy you enjoyed the stops, the crew, and the overall experience. It’s great you met wonderful people too! Kind regards, Gray Line

Eyituoyo_E, May 2025
nana was a lovely and friendly guide. initially a bit cold in the morning but warmed up nicely, good amount of time given for both islands

A wonderful trip to islands

YIPING_L, Oct 2024
The cruise is relaxing. Islands are beautiful. We met two young lovers from South Africa and had wonderful talks with each other. Nana, the guide is responsible and welcoming. Hvar island is the bigger one and more famous. We visited the fortress first from where we can see the beautuful birdview of the whole town and boats in habour. Brac, the small island which is much quiet with less tourists here on the island. It is a place good for idling. During the cruise, the boat stopped on the way and guests chose to swim or snorkling in the sea. My husband also jumped into tge sea. He enjoyed the swimming very much. Anyway, it's a trip full of fun.

A total disappointment

Jennifer_H, Oct 2024
Gray line cancelled the trip twice. The day we went boat was overcrowded and we didn’t go to any of the stops on the itinerary. Had we been informed we would have got a ferry to Hvar as our friends did. A very disappointing experience.

Missed one of the stops and cut short Hvar.

Vel_S, Sep 2024
I give this two stars to acknowledge that I was on the boat and that I did get to see Kotor and Milna. However, the boat was an hour late for boarding, and then we skipped the Pakleni Islands altogether, supposedly due to weather. This as supposed to be the swimming, snorkelling, paddleboarding spot so none of that happened. Hvar was our next stop, but it was cut short by 30 minutes, so we only had time for lunch and a quick hike to the fort--we could not tour the town. Last stop was Milna for too long. The seas got incredibly rough on the way back, and many people around us were vomiting. Perhaps this tour should not have taken place given all the hurdles and the inability to fulfill all the stops. I give it two stars because I could tell our hostess was really trying hard to make the best of it.

Amazing!! Must do this if visiting Split

Perfect day out on a boat trip of some beautiful islands around split

Kayleigh_s, Sep 2024
A wonderful day spent with wonderful people, with gorgeous views and amazing boat staff. This boat trip was amazing from start to finish, our host Nana was fun and energetic whilst also ensuring the safety of you and her team, we got to have a swim around the pakleni islands, which was lovely and refreshing, the other islands we visited were beautiful and the trip provided us with enough time to had a good wander around. The lunch was burgers, beef, tuna steak, and a 'mcplant' style burger. All in all a fabulous day trip out for the price. Again thank you to the crew- Captain Darijo, Host Nana, Chef Alen and crew mates Jere and Roko, you all made it a wonderful trip out

Overall the tour was ok

Igor_R, Sep 2024
The weather, it was very windy and boat could not stop at Pakleni Islands, the roof from the top floor of the boat teared off and 2 metal screws felled in front of our eyes.

More helpers needed

Karen_E, Sep 2024
The trip was good and we enjoyed the island visits. However, although Nana worked hard we felt she needed more help. Food was delivered as fast as one person can serve 130 people but inevitably the burger and chips were cold. They were tasty but it wd have been better if they were hot! Not really gourmet in our opinion.

Great excursion!

Lisa_B, Sep 2024
Our excursion was wonderful. Nana and the crew were great. Highly recommend. It was a day a fun in the sun.

Good experience

Iman_K, Sep 2024
Great experience. Food was pretty good in my opinion. Wished there was a little more time at the last stop however. Nana was great.

A great boat tour that could last longer.

Salvador_D, Sep 2024
This boat tour is an unforgettable experience. Maslinica and the Blue Lagoon are the best spots. The only problem is the time you spend in every place. It isn't enough to enjoy them. The tour could start earlier in the morning or finish later in the afternoon.

Fab memory

Ciara_B, Aug 2024
The crew were exceptional and so helpful.We were very well instructed as to what our schedule was and assisted us in every way !
