Review of Split and Trogir’s three-island speedboat tour, with Blue Lagoon swimming, Maslinica village, Čiovo, tips, timing, and value.

“We had the best time on the tour. the guides were super friendly and knowledgeable, the communication before the day was excellent too. the amount of time at each location was perfect, not too little, not too long, and a smaller size (max 14 people) boat was perfect. the boat was also super comfy. it's been the highlight of our trip and I'd definitely recommend going with these!”

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 804 reviews · 5 hours · from $67

Review of Trogir’s five-hour speedboat tour to the Blue Lagoon, Maslinica, and Duga Bay, with practical tips on timing, value, and family fit.

“Excellent tour of three beautiful spots in Croatia. Advertised as a half day tour we were out for five hours in an amazing speedboat, our kids loved how fast we went and yet it felt very safe thanks to our excellent driver - thank you Lujo! The ocean was so clear and so warm and perfect for our three kids (ages 8.10 & 11) to snorkel in confidently.”
