Private Boat Tour FAQs
Everything you need to know before booking your private tour
What makes a private boat tour different from a group tour?
With a private boat tour, the entire boat is exclusively yours. No sharing with strangers, no fixed schedules, and complete flexibility to customize your itinerary. You choose where to swim, how long to stay, and which hidden coves to explore.
How much does a private boat tour in Hvar cost?
Typical market prices are about €350–€1,200 per boat for a half-day (4-5 hours) and about €550–€1,800 per boat for a full day (8 hours), depending on the boat type. This is the price for the whole boat, not per person, so it works out well for groups of 4-8 guests. Final price comes from the skipper and depends on boat, season and group size.
What is included in a private boat tour?
Most private tours include a licensed local skipper, fuel for the agreed route, bottled water, snorkeling gear and safety equipment. Soft drinks, towels, a freshwater shower and a sound system depend on the boat. The skipper lists what is included in the offer, so check it before you confirm. Bring sunscreen and cash for restaurants and park entrance fees.
How many people can join a private boat tour?
Most private boats in Hvar take 6 to 12 guests depending on the boat type. Couples and small groups usually pick a speedboat. Larger groups and families often prefer a mini yacht or luxury yacht, which have more deck space, shade and a toilet on board.
Can I customize the itinerary?
Yes. Private tours are flexible. Want to focus on snorkeling? Prefer wine tasting stops? Need to avoid certain activities with young children? Tell us in your request and your skipper will plan the route around your group.
What destinations can I visit on a private tour?
From Hvar, boats reach the Pakleni Islands (10-30 min), the south coast including Red Rocks and Dubovica (20-40 min), Vis Island and the Blue Cave (60-90 min), and even multi-day trips to Korčula or Dubrovnik.
