The Story About Us

Because Who You Sail With Matters

Ria Tours didn’t begin with a detailed business strategy.                                                                                   It began with us — Lucija and Siniša, a married couple from Trogir who simply love the sea and wanted to build something of our own.

What began as a shared passion for boats slowly grew into a family business shaped by experience, responsibility and genuine care for every guest who steps on board.

Over the years, we have welcomed travellers from around the world on boat tours from Split and Trogir, guiding them through some of the most beautiful parts of Central Dalmatia, including Hvar and the surrounding islands. Our approach is simple: thoughtful planning, flexible routes and a calm, professional atmosphere on board.

Whether you choose a private experience or a small group tour, every detail is handled directly by us. When you contact Ria Tours, you are not speaking to a call centre or a sales team — you are communicating with the people who stand behind every tour.

We organise the details, suggest the route, our name is attached to every tour, and that matters to us.

Ria Tours is built on consistency, trust and the belief that quality experiences come from people who truly care about what they do.

Lucija & Siniša

Something we are really proud of!

What an experience we had and memories made that will keep forever. If you’re looking to book a speed boat trip, please book with Siniša he’s so nice, helpful and it’s his own independent company rather than a big tour firm. He won’t disappoint you. The only thing that could have been better is the weather but that’s unavoidable and not his control :) End of the season when we went and probably his last trip for the season.

This is a great tour. The guys on the boat are friendly, they take you to beautiful locations on a safe, clean boat, and they give you tips to enjoy each stop. This is great value to take a speedboat to all of these places. I would go again if I visit the area.

Very nice boat and staff. Went to beautiful locations with plenty of time to enjoy each one. This is perfect if you just want to do a half day excursion to some beautiful islands nearby.

If you have half a day to spend and you would like to do it on a sea, you should take this trip. It was really fun to see the Blue Lagoon and the smaller islands.

Mes attentes était au plus haut car j'ai fait la même excursion avec riatours l'an dernier. Formidable! Le tours était composé de façon à éviter les hordes, et il y avait de petits plus... eau fraîche et café à bord, et équipement de snorkeling proposé pour qui le voulait. N'hétez pas à regarder sous l'eau... il y a toujours beaucoup à voir...

Нещодавно ми здійснили неймовірну подорож на човні по трьох островах Хорватії, і це був справжній відпочинок мрії! Перша зупинка – Блакитна лагуна, де ми стрибали з човна у прозору воду. Враження просто неймовірні! Наступним пунктом було чарівне село Масленіца, де ми насолодилися смачним обідом у місцевому ресторані, смак якого запам’ятається надовго. Завершили подорож на острові з тихим пляжем, де можна було повністю розслабитися. Капітан і його помічник були справжніми професіоналами, завжди дбали про комфорт і безпеку. На борту були доступні холодна вода та гаряча кава, що зробило подорож ще приємнішою. Ця пригода залишила незабутні враження, і я щиро рекомендую її всім!

We had an incredible experience with Sinisa. As a local, he was able to share fabulous personal stories and explain the history of the areas we explored. His boat was comfortable, and the small group experience was just we hoped for. He took us to several gorgeous locations for the best snorkeling we did during our 2 weeks in Croatia. We also met wonderful people. Just fabulous.
