Discover the turquoise paradise of Blue Lagoon and Šolta during a daily trip on a motorboat from Trogir

Our family had a fantastic day with skipper Ivan. We got a free upgrade to a more luxurious boat. Ivan was very flexible and communicated well in advance via WhatsApp. He showed us all the beautiful places in the area and also gave clear explanations. As far as we are concerned, an absolute must!

Perfect ! Thanks again to Antonio

Perfect day!

I booked a private skippered boat trip for the first time and it was the worst experience I have ever had. And that also cost me 420 €. But it's also partly my fault, because I overlooked a couple of prices. E.g. on the prices on the website there are extra fees for skipper, cleaning and fuel costs. But the organizer Antonio and skipper Marco are partly to blame for the following reasons: - agreed was 9:15 meeting point in Split. Marco arrived at 9:40 am. If I pay 300€ a day + 100€ fuel (+ 30€ parking) for a small motor boat, then I expect that you will be there on time. - We booked the small boat with a 100 hp motor. We were 3 adults and 6 year old child. When I got on the boat, the first thing I asked about was a life jacket for the little one. But Marco didn't have any with him. All the way I had to ask my wife and mother-in-law how I could book such a tour when the boat doesn't even provide a life jacket for the child. Of course, my mood was already right on Ar****. - Marco said at the beginning that we will make 4 stops and will probably use fuel worth 100€. We canceled the tour after the lunch break due to strong wind, waves and lack of a life jacket for the little one. Logically, we covered a shorter distance and used less fuel. Nevertheless, Marco took 100€ from me for fuel. Antonio promised to send me the fuel receipt the next day, but I didn't get one. We definitely used significantly less fuel. But I still had to pay 100€. - Marco initially asked me if I would like to see Trogir. I denied that and said that I can also drive there by car and he still drove to Trogir. So we lost about 1 hour. - In strong winds and waves, staying on this boat without life jackets is life-threatening, especially if the occupants cannot swim. My daughter can't swim. I had to hold her for about 1 hour until we finally got to Split. It was absolute hell for all of us. My wife and mother in law was nauseous all the time. However, the skipper doesn't care until he's told several times to slow down or stop and take a break. - Marco took us to some super expensive restaurant where we spent 155€ for 3 people and a child. We ordered normal dishes and there was a bottle of water to drink. I think the skippers also get commissions there, because in this restaurant there were only tourists who are brought by skippers. - all in all we only saw Blue Lagoon and had an expensive lunch. To top it off, there was a hell of a ride back to Split. NEVER AGAIN!!! TIPS: 1. Be sure to check how much fuel the boat has. And after arrival, I definitely recommend being there when you fill up. Otherwise you pay 40-50 € too much. I didn't and paid too much! 2. It's damn cold in the boat in September. Warm clothing is mandatory. In general, it is extremely uncomfortable, unsafe and life-threatening on such a small boat in choppy waters. I had to hold my daughter for 1 hour with splashing water, a loud engine from all sides, loud radio music and a strong wind. It wasn't relaxation, it was torture for all of us. So we had to cut our journey short after lunch. 3. It's better to skip breakfast, otherwise you could get sick because the waves are really shaking the boat. I would eat something light for lunch. For example, upon arrival, my mother-in-law had to vomit. It was really very uncomfortable on the boat. 4. Research inexpensive restaurants beforehand. Skippers take you to very expensive restaurants where you pay a lot more. 5. In general, I would refrain from such a private tour in the future and would rather book a normal boat tour, where you can easily go to the toilet if necessary or simply sit comfortably in the closed area and protect yourself from cold wind and splashing water. 6. Blue Lagoon can be saved. There's nothing special there that already exists on the mainland. You can also save Trogir.
