If you are in Split this is your trip!

Blair_S, Jul 2023
Even though there was choppy waves from the weather it was a once in a lifetime excursion. I would warn that if the weather is not ideal be prepared to get wet. I would say the ideal ages for this trip is 8 or older or 65 and less; you also need to be mobil enough to get in and out of boats. The captain was amazing and gave us as much or little time at all the spots we visited and had great recommendations on food. I never felt rushed or like he was in a hurry. The captain was always a WhatsApp text away if we wanted to stay longer or head out to the next spot. Even with the choppy waves this will always be my favorite trip I went on 5 stars easily. If you get a calm day this trip would be priceless!

Split Hvar private boat

Jen_C, Jun 2023
Boat was old. Skipper was very nice but smoked a lot. Nothing provided. No ice. Very dissatisfied. Would not recommend.

Response from Host, Jul 2023

I don`t know what to answer on this. It is pity that Viator don`t remove these ridiculous reviews. Boat was old??????? Boat is 11 months old. Is that old boat??????????? If skipper smoked and You didn`t like that why didn`t You asked him to stop? Personally I don`t like smoking but when persons is smoking and it is all day on 7m boat how to avoid it???? Nothing provided???? What??? We don`t offer extras so what to provide??? Ice? Why? Where did You saw we offer it and in this case boat is with installed cooler box so why to have Ice anyway(skipper provided ice after you asked). At the end I understand that 1 star review reflect your experience but to give 1 star review to someone because of nothing is just bad manners because it reflects bad on us without any reason.

Definitely must go and see Hvar and Bol. Beautiful and breathtaking.

Split Private Boat Rental

Darren O, Aug 2019
We are 2 UK families (4 adults 4 teens) who booked the boat rental (and pilot/captain/driver) at fairly short notice via the internet one night. Mario contacted us via WhatsApp on the morning to agree pick-up location at Split harbour. We discussed which sites we wanted to go and see, such as Zlatni Rat for some swimming/snorkelling and then onto Bol town for a late breakfast on a harbour restaurant on Brac island, followed by a trip to Hvar town with for an hour or so sight seeing and drinks. Then dropped anchor in a bay on the Paklinski islands for more swimming and snorkelling. Finally squeezed in another quick stop in a quiet bay on the western end of Brac on the way back in to Split. All in all maybe 11hrs use of the boat. Mario was friendly, informative and patient. A good host. A slight indulgence for us to have a boat to ourselves for the day but worth it.
