Our boat trip with Johnny was great! He took us to some amazing beaches that we would have never found on our own and also an amazing lunch! I recommended this boat trip to anyone and we really enjoyed our day!

The experience was 10/10, we had the best day ever! Our skipper was so friendly, knowledgeable and made the whole day so enjoyable. We visited some incredible places and got to see so much of beautiful Hvar and the surrounding islands. Everything about the day was perfect. I couldn’t recommend this experience enough!

We truly loved our experience with Bruno!! We found that this boat was the perfect size for 3 people. We thoroughly loved our day in the Pakleni islands and shout out to our skipper, Patrick for showing us around. The only thing we didn’t love was the restaurant he brought us to for lunch (expensive and mediocre food), which seemed to be a deal between the skippers and the restaurant. Other than that, it was the best day ever and we would highly recommend booking a boat through Bruno! Hvala!

Absolutely wonderful! Could not recommend this trip more - Andrej was such a delight to work with and answer questions leading up to the trip. Our skipper, Jure was truly the best! He is very knowledgeable about all the islands and history, can drive the boat very well and a very kind person, it really added to the experience and made the day even better! The islands/bays and water are spectacular, I have never seen water that clear and blue! Everyone said this trip was their favorite day and they are right! 10/10!!
