Blue cave & Hvar, 5 islands speed boat tour with unique boats from Split

Simon was a great skipper and showed us so many amazing and unique places! He even adapted the tour to hit more places that I wouldn’t have been able to see without a local guide.

This was easily one of the highlights of our trip to Croatia! The Blue Cave & Hvar 5 Island Speed Boat Tour was well organized, and every stop was beautiful and worth visiting. A special thank you to our captain, Luka, who made the experience exceptional. He shared so much local knowledge, was incredibly attentive to everyone in the group, and made us feel safe and comfortable throughout the day. His friendly personality really made the tour even more enjoyable. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Croatia. It was an unforgettable experience, and we’d do it again in a heartbeat!

Absolutely incredible experience and worth every dollar! Our tour guide Simon was great and so knowledgeable.

Was an amazing experience and great day out. Simon was a really good skipper and so knowledgeable of the whole area and tour.

This tour was well worth every penny! Our tour, Pjero was amazing and made the experience so much fun. We had our 7 year old daughter with us and I was a little worried based on what I’d heard that the ride may be too rough for her but she had a blast! We got to see so much, had more than enough time at every stop, and our guide gave us just enough knowledge & personal recommendations throughout. I looked for awhile for the best option for us for this tour and I’m so glad I went with this one! Also, having a boat with a shade and comfortable seats (after seeing other boats go by without) is a huge bonus.

I would highly recommend taking this tour. Our skipper Luka was great! He was really informative about the history of the islands and about what to see and where to go at each stop. He was good fun, had a great playlist on throughout and made sure everyone felt safe both going on and off the boat, travelling to each island, and during the choppier ride back to Split. He also accommodated us seeing the cove featured in a scene from Mamma Mia and stopped briefly on the way home to let us get a better look at some dolphins that were swimming beside the boat. On top of that, he stopped to help a fellow skipper with a boat full of people who was stranded because rope had got tangled around the propellers, stopping the boat from moving. Luka to the rescue 😄. In terms of the sights, the blue cave is a must see, a really good experience and beautiful. The rest of the scenery - coves, lagoons, caves, forts, marinas and islands - are stunning too...postcard pretty and you get brilliant views from the boat and from the islands themselves. You also get plenty of time to explore the islands when you stop off. At a practical level I would recommend bringing sunscreen, a towel and a change of clothes for after the swim (if you choose to do it) and sunglasses. For those that it applies to, I wouldn't bother doing your hair or make-up beforehand as the boat ride and swimming will make sure that doesn't last long 😄. If that will bother you then I'd advise bringing a hair brush and whatever you need to reapply make-up. You'll get an opportunity to freshen up at the stops. You can get water and snacks/food at the Vis and Hvar island stops where there are reasonably priced shops, restaurants, bakeries, etc. so bring some cash/cards. If you want to stay dry on the boat ride home I'd suggest sitting at the back. We didn't and loved every minute of it, but the experience wouldn't be for everyone- it's fast, bumpy and wet, but fun! The whole tour was an amazing experience, well priced and hassle free...you just book, show up and you're looked after from there. It's an early start (6.30 a.m.) and is all day - we got back to Split at around 5 p.m. - but completely worth it. Definitely 5 stars from us!

Incredible trip. 5 stars all around. If you are in Split/ book this tour! Our skipper Luca was fantastic. This was one of the most memorable tours we did on our trip.

Simon, our skipper, was experienced and knowledgeable. We enjoyed our trip with him throughly. He was very thoughtful and kind, and was accommodating with everyone in our group. Great guide and day out on the water overall!

We had a wonderful time on this tour. Our skipper, Piero, was very knowledgeable about the islands and their history. The stops were a good length and we were able to snorkel twice, in beautifully clear water. We would probably not do the (optional) Blue Cave experience if we were to go again - I found it rather overpriced for what it was, and crowded - three boat loads in the small-ish cave at the same time, so quite noisy for trying to enjoy nature! This is a government run monument though, and the tour guide had made it clear that it was entirely optional. The day was expensive, but they all are in June! We chose to pay a little more to go on a small boat (twelve passengers total) as we didn't fancy the 'party boats' others were offering. Glad we did it this way. Seats were comfortable and Piero made sure all his passengers were comfortable at all times. Overall a great day out, and we would recommend.

Fantastic day at sea! Our Skipper Luka was the best! He is an expert driver (very smooth!) and made every effort to show us all the great spots. I was apprehensive booking this tour since it was 11 hours, and worried it wouldn't be good. I'm pleased to say it exceeded my expectations! Thanks Luka!
