About this experience
- Hvar, the old town Explore this favorite holiday destination for celebrities and yachties, also famous for its eight centuries old architecture and the first ever public theater in Europe built in the center of the city. The Fortica Fortress is overlooking the bay and keeping the town safe. - Pakleni Islands An amazing collection of fourteen untouched islands that attract with its hidden beaches, deserted lagoons and bays are the loveliest part of the whole Croatian riviera. Dense pine trees forests emerging from the deep blues of the Adriatic Sea are just the perfect setting for the best vacation. - Red rocks If you leave Hvar by boat towards St. Nedjelja, after the coves Dubovica and Pišćena you will find Red rocks, a natural phenomenon of vertically disintegrated reddish cliffs which steeply drop into the sea. The unusual play of the natural force of the sea and rain has left its mark in the layers of limestone creating an impressive masterpiece of nature.

Private Tour in Split
We had a great full day on the water with Leonarda and Josip. Very attentive and accommodating. We never felt rushed to leave the multiple swim spots we went to. Had plenty of drinks and snorkeling/swim equipment for our family of 5 to use. Would reccomend 10/10 to anyone wanting a boat tour in Split!

BEST DAY EVER…worth every penny!! 🤩
We had the best day! Ante created an amazing itinerary for us and recommended the perfect restaurant for lunch. The trip had everything, superb boat with lots of drinks and snacks, snorkelling equipment and towels were provided. We stopped at some beautiful locations for swimming along the way, even getting to jump off the red rocks. Honestly, book this trip - it was worth every penny and you will not be disappointed!!

Wonderful day in the water exploring Hvar and Pakleni islands.
We had a great day with Luka. We enjoyed our time exploring the lovely city of Hvar and had time for leisurely swimming and enjoying the day. Lukas recommendation for lunch was delicious and off the beaten path. Great way to get away from the crowds and get time in the Adriatic. Highly recommend!

Why this scores 66
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
HVAR & PAKLENI Islands PRIVATE tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Split.
How much does HVAR & PAKLENI Islands PRIVATE tour cost?
+
Prices start at $1200 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Split usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does HVAR & PAKLENI Islands PRIVATE tour take?
+
Plan for about 9 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Split is not rushed.
Is HVAR & PAKLENI Islands PRIVATE tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 47 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Split, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule HVAR & PAKLENI Islands PRIVATE tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is HVAR & PAKLENI Islands PRIVATE tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book HVAR & PAKLENI Islands PRIVATE tour?
+
Around 16 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Split can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Split and add a light layer if any part of the 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does HVAR & PAKLENI Islands PRIVATE tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Split within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Split?
+
On Outty we rank every Split experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Split Small-Group Walking Tour with a Magister of History, Split Walking Tour with Professor of History, From Split: Krka Waterfalls, Food & Wine Tasting Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Split?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Split?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
