Private tour from Split — a boat just for your group

Blue Cave by private boat from Split

Price from 1,100 €/boat
Duration 10 hours
Capacity 12 spots
Departures Apr–Oct

The same unforgettable day at the Blue Cave and the islands — but on a boat just for your group, with a tailor-made itinerary and all the time in the world at every stop.

This is the private version of our best-loved tour. The boat, with a professional local skipper, is exclusively yours: from 1 to 12 people, for the same total price. No waiting for other groups, no one else's schedule, no sharing the coves with strangers.

The route covers the area of the classic tour — the Blue Cave on Biševo, Stiniva cove on Vis, Budikovac lagoon, the Pakleni archipelago and Hvar — but you design the itinerary with the skipper: you can add stops in the area (a cove on Brač, for example), skip others, and decide how long you stay in each place. Departure at 08:00 and return around 18:00.

You also choose the boat: the fast RIB, the Enzo or Mercan speedboats, or premium boats such as the Colnago, Felix or Aliskaf. Book online paying just the deposit; you pay the rest to the skipper on the day of the tour.

As always, Mario looks after you personally via WhatsApp before, during and after, and with your confirmation you'll receive our detailed PDF guide with the narration of the Blue Cave and every stop.

Our boats

Our fleet includes 4 types of boat: Enzo, Colnago, Felix and Aliscaf. All are fibreglassboats with very similar features and capacity for up to 12 passengers plus crew.

Unlike the inflatable RIBs used by other companies — smaller and uncomfortable for a full day at sea — our boats offer more space, better stability and a noticeably more comfortable ride.

We can't confirm which of these four models you'll be on until the day of departure, as we assign boats according to occupancy and fleet logistics.

Itinerary

7 stops, a single day

08:00

Departure from Split / Split

Boarding at Matejuška harbour. Briefing with the skipper: you go over the plan for the day together and adjust it to your liking before setting sail for Biševo.

09:30

Blue Cave / Modra špilja

Transfer to the local boat that enters the cave (entry 12-24 €/person not included, depending on season). Sunlight streams through an underwater opening and turns the water electric blue.

10:30

Stiniva, Vis / Vis

Croatia's most famous cove, wedged between rock walls. On a private trip you decide whether it's a quick photo stop or a long swim with snorkelling.

12:30

Budikovac Lagoon / Budikovac

A shallow, turquoise lagoon perfect for a relaxed swim and lunch (beach bar, not included). Your boat, your pace.

14:00

Pakleni archipelago / Paklinski otoci

Hidden coves and emerald water. The skipper knows corners that group boats never reach.

15:30

Hvar / Hvar

A stroll around the Old Town and the harbour, for as long as you like.

17:00

Back to Split / Split

Sailing back in the afternoon light. Arrival at Matejuška around 18:00.

Common questions

Frequently asked
questions

Can't see yours? Message us on WhatsApp at +34600988287.

How much does the private tour cost?

The price is for the whole boat, not per person: 1,100 € with the RIB, 1,450 € with the Enzo or Mercan boats, and 1,600 € with the Colnago, Felix or Aliskaf boats. It costs the same whether there's 1 of you or 12 — the more of you there are, the cheaper it works out per head.

How do I pay?

When you book, you pay only the deposit online, depending on the boat chosen (150 € for the RIB, 200 € for the others), via Stripe: card, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay or Revolut Pay. The rest is paid directly to the skipper on the day of the tour, in cash (EUR) or via Revolut.

Can we change the itinerary?

Yes, that's the beauty of going private. Together with the skipper you decide which stops to make and how long to stay at each one, always within the Blue Cave route area. You can add nearby places — a cove on the island of Brač, for example — but not destinations outside the area such as Zadar.

What are the times?

From 08:00 to 18:00 from Matejuška harbour in Split. Ten full hours for your group.

Which boat is right for me?

The RIB (rigid inflatable boat) is the fastest and most affordable option, ideal for young groups and speed lovers. The Enzo and Mercan are rigid-hull speedboats that are more comfortable for families. The Colnago, Felix and Aliskaf are the most spacious and comfortable boats in the fleet.

Is the cave always part of the tour?

Entry depends on sea conditions: if the waves are high, the authorities close the cave for safety and there's nothing we can do. In that case you don't pay the entry fee (the only amount paid there) and the tour carries on as normal: all the other stops on the itinerary are still visited. As this isn't a cancellation on our part, no refund or date change applies.

What language is spoken on board?

The skipper is a local Croatian and speaks English. With your confirmation we send you a PDF guide with the full narration of the cave and every stop, and Mario is on hand personally via WhatsApp at all times.

What if the weather is bad?

If the skipper cancels due to sea conditions, we refund 100% of your deposit or change the date at no cost. You take on no weather risk at all.

Can I cancel?

Yes, up to 24 h before the tour we refund your deposit in full. After that, the deposit is non-refundable.

Where is the meeting point?

Matejuška harbour, right in the centre of Split, at 07:45. We send you the exact GPS location via WhatsApp 24-48 h beforehand.
