Dario
My name is Dario. It’s hard for a foreigner to understand the bond the Croats have with the sea. My love for the sea, especially fishing, existed ever since I was a little kid. As I grew up, it made me explore further and I got to find many secret places, caves and pristine beaches. After my studies at Marine Fisheries, I got a job at Institute of Oceanography and Fisheries here in Split and that’s when my dreams come true. The next big step was, of course, combining my experience and expertise to create a company for custom made tours and excursions. My goal is the individual approach and a tour with enchanted exclusivity for my guests of any taste and preference. An introduction to the marine environment and the various fish fauna while enjoying a scenic cruise to the beautiful Dalmatian islands would then sound like a perfect summer escape.

AbdellatifText automatically translatedSkipper was very friendly and contact was easy with Dario. Unfortunately after 2 hours we had to go back because of an accident on the boat of a fellow passenger. Fortunately, he is fine. we were therefore unable to complete the entire ride. Unfortunately there was no room for leniency and we had to pay full price. That was a pity and we had hoped that we could find a reasonable solution.{{ commentTranslate }} -

AlexandraText automatically translatedNice trip, kids loved it. Too bad our skipper couldn't chat with us. Language barrier, shyness?Belle excursion, les enfants ont adoré . Dommage que notre skipper n'ai pas pu échanger avec nous . Barrière de la langue , timidité ? -

LindeText automatically translatedWe had a great experience with SamBoat and Dario. Dario responds quickly to your questions, and beer, soft drinks, water, snacks, fruit, towels and a snorkel set were included. There is a small refrigerator on the boat. Ivan was our skipper and took us to amazing spots. He also arranged a fantastic lunch for us. We paid approximately €160 for the fuel (for the entire day). Highly recommended!{{ commentTranslate }} -

GarthText automatically translatedMy wife and I had a very enjoyable half day touring some of the Dalmatian islands, swimming, sight seeing, and chatting with our host Ivan, who is a great guy and a very competent driver. The boat was perfect for the outing. Dario was great to deal with on arrangements and made everything easy. Highly recommend Dario and Ivan if you are looking for a relaxing and memorable time on the water.{{ commentTranslate }} -
WilliamText automatically translatedGreat Boat! Had such a fun day. Will totally recommend to anyone{{ commentTranslate }} -
SiweiText automatically translatedSkipper was Ivan. He was smart, friendly, and flexible. We made 5 stops at 4 different islands during the 5-hour trip! Along the way, Ivan adjusted the routes based on how much time we spent at each stop. We were extremely happy with a few gorgeous but less busy beaches he took us to! The boat is in superb condition and together with Ivan makes us 100% satisfied with this private boat experience!{{ commentTranslate }}

DannaText automatically translatedWe took this private boat tour with Ante as our skipper. Dario and Ante were very flexible with our start and finish time, and coordinated the tour based on where we wanted to go and what we wanted to see. Went to the blue lagoon, snorkeled around the shipwreck and then went and had a great lunch. It was a pleasant, smooth ride, even thought the wind picked up and the water was choppy.{{ commentTranslate }}

RutgerText automatically translatedThis experience has exceeded our expectations on each aspect! Beforehand, Dario was responsive on our questions and he explained us many things very transparant. The boat was amazing with enough space to chill in the sun and shadow. Also the skipper (Ante) is an amazing guy. He took care of us very well and showed us some nice spots around. I would defenitely recommend this trip to anyone.{{ commentTranslate }} -

ElenaText automatically translatedUnforgetable experience. We spent a few hours on the boat privately. They took us to the blue lagoon and some other nearby beach. We were able to swim and spend a great morning on board. Gasoline and skipper are paid separately. Definitely a recommendable experience.Experiencia inolvidable. Pasamos unas horas en el barco de manera privada. Nos llevaron a la laguna azul y alguna otra playa cercana. Nos pudimos bañar y pasar una gran mañana a bordo. Gasolina y patrón se pagan aparte. Sin duda una experiencia recomendable -

NigelText automatically translatedI cannot recommend Dario enough! Our family enjoyed the best charter experience with an outstanding crew. Visiting secluded coves for swimming, wandered interesting villages, ate a super lunch. This is a first class charter operation, Tedi was a great captain, Stella an amazing hostess. We have chartered a lot of boats and this experience was the best. Make sure you book with Sparus Boats.{{ commentTranslate }} -
