- WanderBet0 contributionsA must-do activity if you're visiting HvarKatia and Ivan took our group of 12 on a full day tour of the islands off Hvar, including a visit to the Blue Cave. They were wonderful guides and hosts and we had so much fun! The boat was very comfortable and stocked with drinks and a few light snacks, foam noodles for swimming/floating, snorkel gear, and towels. We toured, swam at some great swimming spots, had lunch on an island, and just enjoyed being out on the water for a day. All in all we received top notch service. Highly recommend!Written 23 July 2024

While our trip was lovely, I'm deducting stars because I felt our guides did not tell us anything. With the raving reviews about entertaining and informative guides, I definitely expected more. I had a female guide, different than the others described in these reviews. (Not Antonia)
When we got on the boat, the guides didn't tell us anything, no safety talk, no telling the itinerary of what we would do, no information, for example that there is a restroom on board, that there are lifejackets, that there is water in the cooler for us (all of that is the case). I knew all of that from reading reviews, but they did not tell us anything at all.
The guide was on her phone the whole time we were not driving the boat, which made me feel like I wasn't welcome to ask questions. They didn't even tell us what island we were on, I had to look it up on a map. I was a little nervous being on the boat at first, and this information in the beginning would have made me feel more at ease.
My husband originally wanted to go with a tour that was $20 USD cheaper per person, but I wanted to go with this one because I felt I would be in good hands with quality guides. The tour was great and adequate, but there are lots of tours that offer this from Hvar. I was looking for above and beyond and was willing to pay for it.
Additionally, they took us to a restaurant and even made a reservation there for us, and it was $100 USD per person for lunch? And made a point to tell us it was the cheapest place to eat at that location. We even mentioned it to them specifically and they said they knew it was expensive, but it was the cheapest place. We ended up grabbing a burger at the adjacent bar for much cheaper, but we had few options on that menu and it was cash only FYI.
However, the water was lovely, the boat was nice, we saw great destinations, and made friends. So in that respect it was a great day.

We booked our trip through Airbnb, which seemed really easy and a smart idea because of the price. The weather the day of the trip was not good (raining and thundering), so at the meeting point we were told to wait because they had to figure out if it was safe. Totally fine.
After waiting a little bit Antonia cancelled our trip through air bnb. However the trip was still happening. We therefore had to pay them again which was fair. Antonia’s sister was in charge this day and told us to pay 1200 kuna for 2 people but we had only paid 993 kuna on Airbnb. We were not interested in paying more, because them cancelling our trip, which was still happening, was not our problem. We, of course, had a friendly and resolution resolving attitude because we still wanted to go on the trip and this was really a minor inconvenience. Antonia’s sister then called a boss to ask what she should do about our price point, which was lower than what she was charging. We waited patiently as she spoke with her boss. My friend speaks Croatian which the sister didn’t know because we kept all of our correspondence on English. On the phone Antonia’s sister at one point said: “oh they are being so annoying, I’m gonna dump them in the ocean!”, to which my friend responded “you are gonna do WHAT!???” in Croatian. The chok on her face was priceless and she responded “oh so you understand our language 😳“ after that there were some tension in the air because antonias sister, of course, completely embarrassed herself in front of two “annoying tourists”. We got our price point and got on our boat trip.
Luckily we had two sweet guides on the tour with us! They deserve 5 stars for the tour they gave us - they were so nice and helpful. Antonia’s sister deserves 0 stars for her rude and threatening comments. She didn’t really have a reason for her attitude and it kind of threw us off.
All in all we will give the trip 1 star ONLY because of Antonia’s sisters threatening behavior. Truly a shame, because we had such a nice trip with the guides.

Hi Camilla,
first of all I have to say that I'm glad you had a good time on our tour, and that you think the tour itself deserves 5 starts!
I once again apologize for Ivona's comment. It was a stressful morning due to weather, she had to deal with numerous cancellations, refunds, tons of questions and persistent travelers that didn't understand why the itinerary was changed. However, there is no excuse, and she has suffered the consequences.
Regarding the price, someone had an early booking for that date, so the price didn't update for that date. She was unaware that you have booked with the old price, but as soon as you mentioned it, we resolved it. The price has been 600 kuna since June.
Kind regards

The tour is done in group by nature, but the humorous boat driver and friendly tour guide are so professional and experienced and generous that they make each one (I’m traveling solo, for example) on the boat feel totally taken care of. The tour is so well paced and orchestrated that you feel taking your time at each spot while keeping moving onwards with each and every spot more and more incredibly amazing. This blue cave tour is so well-known on Hvar that it may seem easy to appreciate it, but this agency really complements the natural wonders with a warm humanism that guarantees the best experience of the blue cave tour and perhaps the best moment of your trip in Croatia. I recommend without any hesitation.

The day trip with Antonia and her partner was amazing!! They were on time, very helpful, gave great advice where to go visit in Kroatien, what to avoid, where to eat what, provided us with gears like life vest, diving glasses, floaters etc free of charge. They were friendly, my boyfriend and I had a wonderful time with everyone aboard. I would love to go back, and repeat the experience. Everyone should give it a try.

The day we originally booked the cave was closed due to weather, but we easily rescheduled for the day after. All the stops we made were great, but the blue cave was really magical. The waves got quite big in the afternoon when we were going back, but the boat and the crew made us feel very safe. It was a good experience.

Amazing and fun experience! The crew were very friendly and knowledgable about the waters. We spent about 30 mins at each island which was the perfect amount of time to swim and relax or jump off the cliff if you are feeling daring. They offered free beer and water which was nice. Once we got to the area of the Blue Cave, you do have to pay a fee of 70 kuna per person and another small boat will take you to the cave. The gentleman there was also very informative about the cave. At the last stop we spent 2 hours on the island giving us enough time to enjoy a meal at one of the many restaurants and if you have time you can relax by the beach. Overall, it was a great time and you will be amazed by the beautiful clear waters.

Was an amazing day with an amazing crew. Antonia was our skipper and Vinka was the other crew member. They were excellent in explaining about each location we visited and each place was different and more exciting than the next. The blue cave was by far the best location but came with a 70 kuna price tag to get in. We stopped at the “green caves” location but is also 70 kuna and Antonia explained that it was not really worth the money. A few of the others on the boat paid the money and went and said it wasn’t really worth the money. Definitely do the blue caves though, it was 100% worth it and beautiful to see. Overall the trip is a must do if you can get to Hvar town.

We had a great time and really enjoyed the tour. Both guides on the boat were very friendly and fun! The lunch stop is a bit late and long and the restaurants are quite expensive, so maybe it's better to bring your own lunch. But other than that the tour was perfect

This was a great experience. Captain Jacob and Antonio were excellent guides. The blue cave was unfortunately closed the day we went, but they showed us a video and we’re very happy they were more concerned with our safety than getting us into the cave. To replace that, we went to a couple more beaches and swimming spots which ended up being a lot of fun. They play good music while traveling, and as a person who gets seasick, it wasn’t too bad. I couldn’t recommend this tour enough, even if you get unlucky and the blue cave is closed (it looks like it happens rarely) you will still have a great time.

We had a really fun time on our boat tour. The captain tried to keep us away from the biggest crowds, staying one step ahead of other boats so that our stops weren’t as crowded. We were given eye goggles (they still aren’t lending the snorkel mouth piece due to COVID), water and beer. Due to the high tide, we couldn’t go into the blue cave, which is for safety purposes and obviously beyond their control. All in all a really fun day!

Hi, I have three kids 6, 4, and 15 month old is this a good trip for them?
Written 21 December 2020
Hi, I think it depends how good the kids are at swimming, the boat will stop in deep waters and require swimming to reach beaches/coves Obviously you don’t have to get off and swim but it one of the main parts.
If you do go I would advise taking snacks for the kids as it can be a long gap until you reach the bay where you have lunch.
The team are great and will help you where needed getting the kids on and off the boat
