So so
Pros : the crew was GREAT! And Maslinica+ Blue Lagoon (2nd and 3rd stop) Cons : the food, quite overbooked, the ´ship’ wreck (1st stop)
via Viator
Packed Like Sardines
Please be warned that this is an extremely crowded boat tour. We arrived to a boat full of 180 people and there were not enough seats. People were packed in like Sardines and they ran out or bracelets for the passengers. We got off before it left because we couldn’t imagine being on this boat for 8 hours.

So fun- but don't come hungry!!
We had a great time meeting people and swimming around at the different locations. Our host, Nana was wonderful. However- the food was awful. Bring your own snacks and you should be fine

Split: Blue Lagoon & Šolta Tour with Lunch & Drinks: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Split.
How much does Split: Blue Lagoon & Šolta Tour with Lunch & Drinks cost?
+
Prices start at $74 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 Split: Blue Lagoon & Šolta Tour with Lunch & Drinks take?
+
Plan for about 8.5 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 Split: Blue Lagoon & Šolta Tour with Lunch & Drinks worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.2/5 across 18 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 Split: Blue Lagoon & Šolta Tour with Lunch & Drinks?
+
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 Split: Blue Lagoon & Šolta Tour with Lunch & Drinks suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Split: Blue Lagoon & Šolta Tour with Lunch & Drinks?
+
Around 6 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 8.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Split: Blue Lagoon & Šolta Tour with Lunch & Drinks 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 Walking Tour with Professor of History, Split Small-Group Walking Tour with a Magister 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.

+
