    Viktorija, is great people! I have no reservations recommending this boat and Viktorija. Everything was as advised and better. We had an absolutely perfect day!

    Filip, Luka and their team were excellent. Our captain for day, Frank, was professional and great guide. The boat was in excellent working condition and we felt perfectly comfortable out on the water. If you’re considering hiring a boat and captain I highly recommend going with Filip and his team.

    COLNAGO 37' Motor Yacht in Hvar, Croatia

    The whole experience is worth every minute. There was 15 of us girls on the boat celebrating my 50th and it was honestly one of our best days in Hvar. We had our own playlist, the owner provided the wine. It was one great party on board . All I would say is be careful of Sea urchins when swimming by the beach. We weren’t aware of this and one of the ladies stepped on one, which was painful. Other than that a fantastic day out

    Private tour of Hvar and Pakleni islands on Insidias in Hvar - gas and skipper included

    The perfect day on the water with an excellent captain! This is our first trip to Croatian and we wanted to experience the beauty of the islands. This was not a cookie cutter tour! Gordon had great stories filled with local knowledge about the islands, Croatia and so much more. We were taken to some very beautiful swimming spots away from all the crowds, snorkeled, dove in a cave and had a lovely lunch at a beautiful spot. We were not rushed at any point and were encouraged to take in the beauty that surrounded us. This experience was spectacular and I highly recommend Gordon(flash) for anyone wanting a unique and authentic experience.

    Private tour of Hvar and Pakleni islands on Insidias in Hvar - gas and skipper included

    Gordan was a wonderful host! He showed us all of the little beaches and gave history of the island. He has lived here his whole life, so knows way more than a normal tourist boat cruise could tell you. He let us stop and have lunch at a lovely restaurant he recommended, and then we swam in the water with no rush even though we were already over our agreed upon time. We will definitely be doing this again if we come back to Hvar, recommend to any group!
