Fantastic Day. Our skipper Lovre was brilliant. A really nice friendly guy and the suggestions he made for our day were perfect. Some really nice swimming and snorkelling stops and the place he took us to for lunch was beautiful. I would really recommend this company.

Would Recommend!

Franklyn_B, Aug 2025
Really enjoyed our boat trip. Duško was great and made it a lot of fun! We also opted for a customised itinerary, which made the experience even more special. Thanks!

It was not customized

Santiago_L, Sep 2024
It’s a great experience but it wasn’t “customized”, we wanted to go to Hvar and Blue Cave but they told us it was too far. Also the experienced will be better if you provide towels or maybe letting the client know they need to carry some. They rush us a lot to leave the boat. Lack of organization and communication

Nice day out

Rony_F, Sep 2024
I didn’t like the fact that had to pay seperate for captain and fuel especially the fuel as you do t really know the real value also boat shower water finished after 2 showers so didn’t fill water in tank but Martin captain was a nice guy and took care of us well nice day out

Great experience

Alejandro_K, Aug 2024
We had a great time on the boat tour! Ivan was a super nice and easygoing skipper, which made the trip really enjoyable. The music was awesome too. Highly recommend!

Perfect way to see some island sights.

Michael_S, Aug 2024
Ivan (skipper) was lovely. The boat was great and his music choice excellent! His lunch recommendation was spot on (on Brac) and the coves we were taken to were great locations for swimming.

6 people and 2 sets of snorkeling gear. Doesn’t add up.

Frederick_G, Aug 2024
The 2 stars are basically due to the fact we booked a deluxe private boat tour for 6 people with snorkel gear provided as per the description. What we got was two masks and snorkels. When Viator was contacted they said they would issue a refund, and today was given the unfortunate news that there was nothing they could do. Which seems a bit disingenuous as I am sure they got a cut from the booking. Anyway, it was disappointing as most of the stops involved swimming/snorkeling. The skipper Luka and boat was as expected. Took us to some secluded areas as well as the popular spots we agreed to before leaving. Just sucks as the large group boats all had equipment at the popular spots.

Great day but huge hidden costs

Giedre_P, Aug 2024
The day was beautiful, the sea was amazing, the fish were so gorgeous… but.. be aware that you think you’re paying £300 for hiring the bot.. you will pay additional 100 to skipper and near 200 for fuel. This is double the money you thought you’re spending on this experience.. so if you are happy to spend 600 for this day. You’ll have a good one. But if not you will sour your experience at the end filling the tank and paying the skipper. Our skipper was also silent, grumpy, smoking and drove too fast for comfort. But the sea and the beauty of nature was stunning 💓

File a Complaint and Compensation

Jung_R, Aug 2024
We booked a private boat tour to visit 5 islands. I contacted Skipper (Mario) the day before, but couldn't contact him, and then suddenly the Skipper changed that morning. The new Skipper was unfriendly and didn't give any explanation, and even said he couldn't go to all the destinations I wanted to go to on the excuse that the boat was small, and even went to the Blue Lagoon. They said they were going and were guided to a completely different place, and even though the distance traveled was short, the gas bill was 122 euros for filling 60 liters. We are filing a formal complaint with the agent for ruining our highly anticipated day.

Amazing Day

MKIRIAN2016, Jul 2024
Our family of 5 had an amazing day with Dusko. The water was amazing and the views were breathtaking. Enjoyed our lunch and will book again next year when we return to Split.

Would recommend but read the fine print

Sheila_C, Jul 2024
Scenery and location of visiting snorkel sites were breathtaking. Be careful with the pricing, we realized after that fuel was NOT included which may have swayed us differently due the overall cost. Driver was lovely but did need to tell him to slow down a few times so we didn't lose any passengers off the front ;-) and the lunch spot he picked as absolutely fabulous.

Perfect day

Francine_B, Jun 2024
The whole day was perfect. We enjoyed the entire day and highly recommend a private boat tour while in Trogir. Dusko was our skipper, he is a very skilled and knowledgeable captain. Oh, and fun!

Charted boat ride in Split - Worth every penny

GIAHOAPATRICK_H, May 2024
My family and I booked this trip last minute yesterday. We received confirmation in the evening with all the details (where to catch the boat & our skipper's contact information). We got in touch with Ivan (our skipper) in the morning through whatsapp and he was ultra responsive and professional; we felt this was going to be a great guide immediately. He picked us up in front of the Ambassador Hotel (perfect spot to board the boat). The boat was super clean and literally almost new. Ivan asked us what we wanted to do and created the perfect day for us. He took us to a really good restaurant on an island named Turanj (highly recommend). We felt well taken cared and safe at all times. We cannot recommend this company enough and particularly Ivan. Thank you!

Highlight of our trip to Croatia

Priscila_D, Jan 2024
The best! Really perfect boat and our guide was the coolest! A must in Croatia to get to know places that you wouldn't normally go to. Highly recommend it!

Great experience. Blue lagoon was incredible

Kattia_M, Sep 2023
Luka the tour guide was very patient and he recommended the best beaches to swim and towns to walk. The boat was beautiful and very confortable. 100% recommended

Wonderful day!

Melissa_O, Sep 2023
We had an awesome day! Our guide was friendly and modified the day to suite our needs. He made reservations at a wonderful restaurant. Best meal so far! A must do!

Enjoyed the islands

Kathleen_d, Sep 2023
Excellent skipper, very friendly and accommodating. Enjoyed seeing the islands, our skipper had great recommendations for lunch

Great day exploring with Toni

Johnny_P, Sep 2023
We had a great time with Toni. We put ourselves in his safe hands, and were glad we did. He took us to amazing spots, Trogdir, Solta, and the Blue Lagoon. We had coffee in Trogdir, dinner in Solta, and Mojitos at the lagoon. Toni was really friendly, and cheerful; he felt like our friend more than our skipper. We had a great day, and when it came to pay the fuel, it was quite reasonable.

Adriatica charter company

Alison_B, Sep 2023
Skipper Goran was perfect for us. He made a custom itinerary to fit our needs. Beautiful day on the Adriatic.

Dusko was amazing!

Jennifer_A, Sep 2023
Our skipper was great! He gave us options to see some local places however we decided to go to the Blue Caves as our heart was set on that. We had a great time and he is the reason for the perfect review. One complaint for the company - it was advertised as a “fuel surcharge tax” which to us (Americans) meant a portion. We were a little stunned with a $400 fuel bill. Went with family but all adults no teens (wish that was an option for the “Who was with you question”

Great boat day!

Colin_C, Sep 2023
We had an excellent boat trip. The boat was perfect, and our skipper, Duśko, was amazing. He went above and beyond to make sure we had a great day. He helped us plan our itinerary, made a reservation for us for lunch, and took us to the most amazing spots! We would absolutely book this again and recommend all friends book it as well!

Terrible experience - trip should have been cancelled due to tough seas

James_W, Sep 2023
We were unable to attend preferred sites due to rough seas caused by very windy conditions. We had to terminate our trip early due to these rough seas and have been unable to obtain a refund from tour operator or Viator.

Luka was great. Booking...

josiearcurio, Sep 2023
Luka was great. Booking wasn’t honest not was information provided. Total rip off for price. This had nothing to do with Luka.

Disappointed in advertising, great Captain

Marleah_S, Aug 2023
Fun boat day, great captain, but if you want to see the 7 options they show you will spend an extra 300 Euros at the very least, and spend the whole day driving and waiting your turn at the blue caves. When we left the Split pick up point the captain said the blue caves is an hour and a half drive, and wait time of 3 hours. That would have been alot of our boat time, Stiniva Bay was just about as far. Basically if you want to see the places mentioned as advertised you are going to spend alot of time and 850 plus Euros in total with boat rental, captain fee, and fuel. So go with the company's that have a set price to those particular spots. We were disappointed in not being able to see the spots advertised but we did have a fun day snorkeling and cliff jumping, and not having to be with other people than our group. Basically it's a private boat day, but you will pay so much more money to see the spots advertised with this company than just going to these touristy spots with larger groups. I hope this gives you a realistic idea, so as not to be disappointed.

Fantastic!

Kristen_T, Aug 2023
It was an amazing experience!Luca,our skipper, fabulous! 5 stars all around!Would recommend to all!!

Stunning scenery and great family fun!

Rebecca_M, Aug 2023
We had a fantastic day with our skipper Ivan, we visited Hvar, snorkelled at shipwreck, Ivan booked us a lovely restaurant for lunch then blue lagoon and another cove for more snorkelling, we are a family of five and all loved it, best day of holiday! Absolutely stunning scenery. Remember to add on skipper cost €100 and petrol (our trip was approx €150).

Our desired content for...

Sanna_K, Jul 2023
Our desired content for the day consisted largely of the examples that the tour is sold with. when we jumped on the boat, the shipper looked at our list and said that none of the islands were possible to visit because it was too windy at sea. he recommended the blue lagoon, but we had already seen it. conclusion was that the only thing we could do because of the weather was Lovrecina Bay, then we wanted to cancel the boat trip because it's not worth spending so much money on one stop. I understand that the weather was the problem, however, it was very bad that we were not informed in time about the weather conditions. we lived in omis, so we traveled to split 45 minutes unnecessarily. it is strange to expect that the customer wants to pay SEK 4200 and 100 euros for shipper plus petrol costs for a single stop. Then we were told that we would get the money back from the boat, however, the shipper told us that we had to pay the 100 euros him. He said we rented the smallest bout and could not expext to visit what we wanted. I questioned why the tour then even gives these islands as examples if it is a big change to not be able to visit them. It felt like the shipper wanted us to do what he recomended (blue lagoon) so it wasnt much of a custome initiary. in the end we didn't have to pay.

Loved our day!!

Jessica_B, Jul 2023
We had such a relaxing, beautiful day! The time on the water and in the water was wonderful! Our captain was great! We loved his recommendations!!

Great day on the water

JoannaMiller, Jul 2023
Our boat driver was friendly and made the trip fun for our group. He shared good recommendations of where to go due to wind / choppy waves. We were able to stop to pick up drinks and put them in the cooler on board. Blue Lagoon was a highlight!

Great experience.

Mark_P, Jul 2023
Fantastic Day. Our skipper Lovre was brilliant. A really nice friendly guy and the suggestions he made for our day were perfect. Some really nice swimming and snorkelling stops and the place he took us to for lunch was beautiful. I would really recommend this company.

Weather cancelled the trip

Lisa_D, Jul 2023
Unfortunately weather cancelled our excursion. I gave 5 stars because of the professionalism while dealing with Adriatica tours. They answered every question promptly, I was disappointed we didn’t get to go on this trip.
