What people are saying about Hvar Island

We had a great time on this trip. The tour company were great as they looked ahead to expected poor weather conditions and asked us to join a tour a day earlier to provide the best chance of the trip going ahead. The Blue Caves are an amazing experience. You transfer to a small boat to fit inside the entrance. The caves are quite small but are amazing inside so well worth a visit. Petra and Brane were great guides and we were always clear about meeting times on the islands etc. Petra provided interesting information at each place. After the cave we sailed along the beautiful coastlines of many islands and had the chance to swim in the clear blue water in two places as well as visiting the beautiful island of Hvar for a late lunch. Thank you for a really nice relaxing trip.

Me and my partner went on this tour and had an amazing time! Sanja and Brane made the experience incredible and we couldn’t fault a thing! The blue cave was worth the wait, it was absolutely stunning. The boat ride itself was good fun and the music was great also! We would definitely recommend going on this trip, the islands were beautiful and the experience all together was so worth while! Thankyou so much Sanja and Brane☺️xx

Superb activity! I loved the stops on the islands, they are sublime. Unfortunately we couldn't get into the blue cave... the weather was not good. The guide was very nice and recommended us to a very good restaurant, quite gastronomic not against it. I recommend for those who want to visit a lot in one day! On the other hand, do not get seasick or be aware that the speedboat is moving a lot!!!

We went to the blue lagoon on the shorter trip because it was too stormy but still had a great time! The speed boat itself was so much fun we didn’t stop laughing! The boat has music and goggles to snorkel with and we stopped at some nice beach bars. Thanks so much Sanja and Tomo!

The trip was amazing, thanks to Sanja and Brane for guiding us on this adventure, they were super cool, with good vibes really. Visiting the 5 islands was amazing, beautiful views, I really recommend!!!
