First of all the global review is : amazing.
I feel sorry reading the only 2 bad reviews and one is from a nasty French girl haha.
For our part it was a very nice day. The blue cave was unfortunately closed due to high tide combined with high waves(I guess the owner of the company did it on purpose with the gods of the weather to punish the frenchies 😂😂) but we did the green one instead which tends to be even better as we could swim inside.
The whole tour is well planed out between the cave, beaches you ll get to see and the lunch in vis (fantastic part of this tour). Not in a way that it s a 3 Michelin stars restaurant but it looks like a proper Konoba with very fresh food. The chef is nice too. French fries and salads as side dish (and if you don't have enough, don't cry on Google afterward and just ask nicely for more). The place is just absolutely stunning. Zlatni Rat is almost nothing compared to that one.
On the boat you have drinks and pastries as well.
At the beginning of the day, the owner of the company is there explaining why this tour is a bit more pricey than others and telling you that the crew will do everything to make your day the best you possibly can hope for and it s what they are doing.
Payment is easy (once again I feel sad for the poor prisoners from the previous review on the boat). I mean seriously guys? They accept Euro, Kuna, Cash and the balance is paid at the end. For those who want to pay differently than cash it s super easy, they send you a link that guides you through PayPal. The same one that you will use to pay the first part (50 euros).
150 euros is approximately what you ll pay for half an hour on a powerful jetski in Hvar. But here we are talking about a 10 hours tour. You ll have the time to enjoy swimming, sightseeing, riding a speed boat, eating, drinking... And you pay the same.
The owner even wrote us a message to have our feedback on the day we had as he wasn't there at the end of the tour. That shows he cares about his guest and his business.
So yes, it s more expensive and when you have a big family, it might be a bit hard to book with them (money speaking as there is lots to do in Croatia). But if you can, do it.
But don't expect something too exceptional! It s great and beautiful and it s already very good. It s around 110 nautic miles ride in the boats (around 200 kms) so it takes time but it s fun.
Thanks Rex and the pilot...
Read moreMost wonderful experience!!! First of all, I did my research and booked this tour… I was slightly apprehensive after reading a couple of the negative reviews BUT any of those individuals who posted negatively about Split Sea Tour must be incredibly difficult to please or smoking crack… we LOVED every minute! Our day started with Angelo meeting us at the dock and giving us a no-nonsense overview of our day- which I greatly appreciate it. We were then handed over the to the crew and off we went. Now the crew, hands down the most fabulous young people I have had the pleasure of meeting. Pia is the sweetest, most adorable and bubbly young lady in the world. She went out of her way to ensure we all were comfortable at all times and always had a refreshment in our hands. Anyone who states otherwise must be a real witch and I am thankful that person was not in our awesome group! The actual tour was stunning: we started with the blue cave in which Pia handles everything while we sipped coffee and took in the view. Next we went to a cute fishing town on Vis for shopping and exploring. We had the most amazing lunch with incredible service and attention to detail and felt like exclusive guests as we snorkeled and made new friends. By the way, the food and drinks were abundant and nobody left hungry so that review is a complete fabrication. We were served like royalty❤️ We ended the day in Hvar and then enjoyed conversation with new friends from across the globe on our way back to Split. Of note, You pass amazing caves and sites along the trip and Pia is sure to explain them all!! She really is the BEST! Payment was incredibly easy with PayPal or cash, and by the way, we both left the boat to use the toilet (the only downside of the day was the toilet broke the day prior so we didn’t have an onboard bathroom but this was incredibly minor), and neither of us were held hostage until we paid- that review is redunk by the way. I will 100% book this tour again when we come back and highly suggest you stop your search...
Read moreSplit Sea Tours is simply the best. We had an excellent time. Angelo, the owner, is very communicative and a straight forward person, NO funny games. He is very honest !!! For example, the day of our tour was very windy. Since the Blue cave is on a small island in open sea, access was limited and dangerous due to high winds. Angelo informed us about the risk right away, and gave us couple of options. One of them was to walk away since he is unable to full-fill the promise of visiting the Blue Cave. Instead of dragging us all the way to Blue Cave (1,5 hrs away) and then just reveal that the cave is closed due to safety concerns, he offered an alternate plan with one more extra swimming stop in one of the many secluded amazing island coves. He also give us a partial refund. That is a gesture of a true professional whom is in this for a long haul not just for a quick reward. The crew, Capitan B and Andrea, are really nice and knowledgeable, make us feel very comfortable and offered complimentary drinks thru out the day. Capitan B is very skilled navigating the white-caps making the ride not choppy as we saw on other boats, rather vey smooth sailing for us! The boat ride itself is amazing and very comfortable. It is a nice and safe boat, compared to what we saw on the water during the day. In my opinion this is the best option to get out there on an opened see, the most enjoyable and safest way there is!!! When it comes to safety of our families there is no trade off !!! The lunch is served in a very cozy restaurant, with seating directly by the sea. The food is very delicious with main course, drink, desert and a coffee, well worth it.We had an excellent time with a full day of wind in our hair, sun in our face, beautiful open-sea ride at high speed, with nice memories and experience for a life time.Thank you for a wonderful experience to Split Sea Tours and if anyone reads this review, don't search anymore just book this, it's the best there is!!! Thank...
