      Highly enjoyable, beautiful scenery.
      We had a great time on our tour with Sonja. We walked the lower lakes and saw stunning waterfalls. The trail was accessible for varying levels. The boat ride was scenic and calm.

      Anita is a fantastic tour guide!
      My friend and I just finished the walking tour of the old town with Anita as our tour guide. She was very kind and very knowledgeable about Split and the history of the old town and Diocletians Palace. The tour was really great and I learned a lot! I would definitely recommend this company, as well tours with Anita! :)

      Unforgettable Plitvice Lakes Tour with an Exceptional Guide
      Our tour around Plitvice Lakes was absolutely extraordinary — a beautiful and magical place that’s a must-see. The drive there was smooth and comfortable, making for a relaxed start to the day. Our guide, Sanja, made the experience even better. She’s one of the best guides I’ve encountered — very knowledgeable, kind, and patient. She maintained a perfect balance of being friendly yet professional, ensuring everyone felt included and informed. If you get the chance to tour with her, don’t miss it — she’ll make your visit even more enjoyable and memorable.

      An amazing and fun way to see a beautiful slice of the Adriatic!
      This day cruise was one of the highlights of our trip to Croatia! The 3 destinations were great, the scenery during the cruise was incredible and the crew on the boat was very friendly and helpful, providing many good ideas on what to do at our destinations. It was a great mix of swimming, history and shopping opportunities! The food and drinks were plentiful, there was a great party atmosphere on the boat with the Australian and New Zealand tourists we met and at one point of the cruise we even saw a dozen playful dolphins around the boat! Thank you Gray Lines for a very enjoyable and memorable day! Neven

      Primarily a transfer, the tour was secondary
      I booked this primarily as a transfer from Zagreb to Split. The tour was important to me, but was secondary to the transportation. While I loved the hike throughout the lakes, I do wish we had had more time. I know there was so much more to see that I did not get a chance to view, and the pace was fairly brisk for the parts I did see. Initially, when picked up from Zagreb, we were in a van and it was comfortable, but a bit cramped. From Plitvice lakes to split, we were on a motorcoach, which was more spacious and comfortable. We stopped at a restaurant and I had some delicious fresh trout. All in all it was a delightful day and I accomplished my mission to get from Zagreb to Split.

      The most beautiful scenery in Europe
      Every scenery was spectacular! The water of the lakes is so beautiful emerald green and clear that I could see the bottom. There were usb plugs in the bus so I didn’t have to worry about my phone battery, and all facilities in the park were so maintained and clean. Sanja, a brilliant tour guide told us everything we wanted to know, and made this trip more enjoyable! I would definitely like to come back in other seasons and enjoy every different views!

    It’s a good start but since the boat departed late we only had 40 minutes in the Paklinski island instead of 90 minutes stayed in the itinerary. Secondly prior seating arrangement could be considered so people would not need to rush into the boat. There are many inflatables for snorkelling but always, more is better than fewer and it will depend on the capacity of the boat crews. The beach club at the final stop is good for refreshing ourselves in fresh water. The quality of the lunch is excellent in terms of such a large group on a boat, providing options to different demands.
    Overall, this trip is good when we don’t have to check 5 islands or more on a single day, also visiting the cosy islands outside of Split, thank you.

    Had a fantastic day! We were welcomed on board by Nana (our host) who lit up the boat and gave us all the information we needed to have an amazing day. The trip to the first swim stop was stunning, accompanied by donuts and great music- really starting the party. The swim stop was a great chance to cool off and enjoy the sea with floats and snorkel masks to really add some pizzazz. Hvar offered the chance to sightsee, eat, drink and shop and the return to the boat saw us greeted by burgers and chips, along with flowing wine. Our final stop was the beach club on Brač, boasting a pool alongside the picturesque ocean view. The return home was breezy and much fun, with amazing tunes. We would like to thank Nana and her crew for “the best day of my life”- the words of one of our party.

    The boat was good and very clean and the staff, especially Jake and Paola, were excellent. The trip had a slightly down side due to the engine breaking down which meant we were stood at the dock for over an hour if very high temperatures. The team needs a clear plan so that customers could maybe go to a cafe or something to better use the time until the boat was fixed. The only real down side was the food, it was cold and whilst this was okay for the burger I am afraid very cold and soggy fries are not very appetizing. Gray Line also need to check their advert, if you advertise snorkelling then you need to provide snorkels as well as masks. If we had know these were not available we would have taken our own.

    In theory this was a great tour, but it didn’t play out as well as we had hoped. The staff and crew were 10/10, wonderful!

    Unfortunately, the biggest issue here was the lack of seating. It was very obvious this boat tour was overbooked and was over the maximum capacity. Our hypothesis was that the websites to buy (we used Get Your Guide) in addition to the in person direct sales, don’t correctly keep inventory count which leads to overbooking in the more busier times of the year. We had to lean on the boat windshield and sit on the floor due to no seats being available. It was a very uncomfortable ride. Standing would be ok for a short period of time but the majority of the day was spent on the water.

    For our stops - the swimming destination was fine. The Hvar stop was our personal favorite - it was a pristine island with cute shops and restaurants. The last stop in Brač was disappointing since it was marketed as a “beach club” but was really just woods with lounge chairs (consistent with the boat - not enough for all) overlooking the beach.

    Overall I would recommend the company restructure this tour to make it more impactful for tourists.

    Extremely disappointed in this company. We asked about the weather when we booked as some winds were forecast but were reassured it was ok and the cruise would happen as highlighted. Shortly after leaving split bay, the boat made a very sharp turn resulting in some passengers falling on deck and many getting soaked with incoming waves. No loudspeaker on board and the girl host had to come round in person to explain to little groups of us that due to the weather we couldn’t visit Hvar and would do an alternative. The alternative meant1.5 hours on Milna village, 2 hours at another small village and then sitting on the boat in Blue lagoon, private beach but couldn’t get ashore or use the inflatables due to currents.
    We understand the change of plan due to weather but we believe the cruise should have been cancelled right from the start due to safety reasons.
    Complete waste of money.
    Other complaints cancelled their cruises which was more honest.
    The boat was crowded, shaded which is good for a hot day but we could have done with somewhere sunny to sit on board while passing time.

    Organization to review. Before the boat, we didn’t know where to go in the different lines (line to pick up a bracelet and one to get into the boat)
    Nauseating smell abounds inside the boat, quite unpleasant when you know you are going to eat on board. Burgers aren't worth a visit.
    Duration of the excursion of 10h but limited time on the different islands so you have the Impression of spending your time on the boat.
    Seats at the top of the boat are limited so it’s not fair for people who have to stay down because we don’t enjoy the same way.
    The visit to hvar is nice and the stop in Pakleni also (30 minutes stop for swimming)

    3 Island Full Day Tour: You get to swim in Croatia's clear sea - we start with the positive. The positives also stop there. This is the essence of false advertising. There is lunch with white wine included, that's it! It says "lunch and drinks included" in the advertisement, but you have to read the fine print. Water and juice are free, but you expect more when there are drinks in the majority on such a trip. We got a cold burger and a sour white wine. In addition, we got to compete for the best metal bench places with 130 other tourists.

    I had an unforgettable experience on the boat tour!
    Our boat cruise in Split was nothing short of amazing. The boat took us out to a nice swimming spot 15 minutes from Hvar providing us with stunning views of the Adriatic Sea and turquoise waters. The crew was incredibly friendly, professional, and went out of their way to ensure everyone had a great time. Shout out to Marco who was very professional, and made sure everyone had a great experience along with clear directions and recommendations at each location.
    We enjoyed stops at beautiful islands, with plenty of time for swimming and snorkeling in pristine coves. The boat was spacious and comfortable, and the onboard food and drinks were delicious. This cruise exceeded all my expectations, and I can’t recommend it enough to anyone visiting Split!

    The crew did a fantastic job making the best of ambiguous weather (overcast with potential for rain). Marko, our host for the boat tour, was so knowledgeable and friendly. It was a little chilly at the first stop of the day (some swam, but not many), and Marko entertained those of us who didn’t want to swim with stories and tips on Croatian things to do and see while we relaxed on the bow. It was an informal, and friendly atmosphere.

    Overall the lunch was very good (veggie, fish, or beef option and all seemed equally good - veggie cooked first to cut down potential for cross-contam with meat! Big props to the cook, Nike, for that consciousness!)

    We had an excellent day! The honesty (especially about what was worth it and what wasn’t in Hvar was so appreciated!), commitment to safety, and friendliness of all the crew really made this our best tour of a 12 day trip!!

    This Grayline tour will be one of the most memorable ones I have on my trip. Overall well-executed and fun! First stop was a swim in the middle of the ocean which was simultaneously thrilling and nerve-wracking at the same time. One of the tour guides, Robert, gave me encouragement from the high deck, saying I was a "dare-devil". I'm not sure I would have dove otherwise. I would have liked more floaties available, since I hadn't swam in several years and we were swimming in the middle of the ocean. The burger lunch was surprisingly good! Came with fries and a variety of drinks. Only complaint is that there were no napkins, but I am guessing it could be because the napkins might fly into the sea. On the ride back to Split, the water was splashing onto the deck often. The tour guides made efforts to make us comfortable: Ante wiped water off our tables several times and Robert offered us room inside the cabin. The sea caused me to feel uncomfortable at times, but the crew and the tourists around me were friendly and helpful, elevating the experience for me.
