      Hire Anton :)
      Anton was amazing! My 8 and 10 years old niece and nephew had trouble with putting on the tight canyoning gear. We almost decided to give up because of it, but Anton solved the problem. He took special care of us, made sure that the kids are safe all the time. He was friendly, smiling and bonded with the kids really easily. Because of this we had a blast. All of us enjoyed the adventure a lot. The scenery is nice, the canyoning is exciting.

      That was fun! Recommended for families.
      We took rafting on the cetina river, 3 hours, suits for families. It was great. Fun and enjoying. My youngest child is 12. But the rafting is mild, maybe too mild, and I think younger children can do it and enjoy it as well. The rafting is done at 4 person boats, and the guides (Daniel, Ivan and Shimon) know their job, know the river and take extra care about security. Highly recommended!

      Great experience!
      Me and my partner did the rafting with Marin. It was such a fun adventure and would recommend it to anyone looking for a bit of excitement during their stay. We were well looked after and given all the appropriate gear needed on the day! Well organised and would definitely use them for more tours!

      Do it, you'll love it.
      Final day in Croatia and couldn't think of a better way to spend it. Marin was great with us, very informative and calm. Two and a half hours of fun on a beautiful river with stunning views. Thank you so much!

      Stunning Experience
      Our final day in Croatia was spent rafting down the Cetina river, and it was definitely a case of saving the best until last. Our guide Ivan was great, guiding the party safely down the rapids. The scenery was absolutely stunning with crystal clear waters, rocky gorges, lush woodland all containing a plethora of beautiful fish, birds and insects. To add to that, we had the excitement of navigating the various rapids on the route down the river. A fabulous day all round with great people in a great location. An experience not be missed.

      A must do adventure
      Went with a couple of friends as we wanted to do rafting down the Cetina River, Ivan was our guide as we were driven from our parking spot to our starting point. Ivan was the captain of the other boat and we were in our own, he was always ready with instructions when we got stuck. My arms are well and truly exhausted but it was amazing. HIGHLY recommend

      Loved it!!!
      This trip was our first time experiencing extreme canyoning. It was awesome. We recommend it to everyone who enjoys hiking, swimming, and a great view. Our guide Ivan did a great job leading us through the river. He made us feel safe the whole time and took pictures of us as well. We had a great time and would book it again.

      Had an awesome time on my friends stag. The hosts made it super easy with the pick up, tour and drop off. They were real fun and laid back, especially for having to deal with 10 hungover lads!

      Really fun day out !
      Amazing time out with our guides Marin and Ivan. They were both super knowledgeable and made sure we had a fun time on the river. The river itself is beautiful with amazing views and crystal clear water. The boats seat a two people, so this is one of the few white-water activities I’ve seen where the guides aren’t sitting behind you steering. It was up to us to make sure we didn’t go of course (spoiler alert: we failed). The rapids are seriously fun but nothing where I was fearing for my life. We booked online via the SplitAdventures website. We sent our enquiry super late into the evening and weren’t expecting a reply. However, 30 mins later we were booked in for the next morning (with transport arranged for us!). Highly recommended for a day out!

      Top class rafting experience!!
      Brilliant experience!! We absolutely loved it. Marin and Ivan were great instructors and gave us the perfect amount of knowledge, not to mention they are funny. We don’t have much experience, a little bit canoeing and paddle boarding and we found it perfect for us! I was ready for a beer when we finished 😂👌🏼

      Fun introduction
      Fun introduction to the sport, you’re given just the right amount of support whilst having full freedom to figure it all out. Marin and Roko were our guides - both of them friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. They spoke perfect English, and communicated excellently as well.

    Did this trip with my teenage son. I thought this was a great introduction to canoeing on a moderately fast flowing river with rapids. Some of the rapids were quite tricky but our expert guide Antonio was always on hand to show us the correct path and on occasion stood in the rapids to push us in the right direction as we came past. I'm sure we knocked the wind out of him once, whoops :)

    I thought the trip was great value and you cover around 11km in the water (if I recall correctly). I don't think anyone will feel short changed by this - we definitely felt that it was a good workout. It is reasonably physical and a moderate level of fitness will help you make the most of it.

    I'd recommend both the guide and the tour (and the river - very pretty and extremely clean). We felt well looked after and although as with any activity there is a small risk of injury I felt this was minimised and the quality of both the canoes and other safety equipment was good.

    Would highly recommend this to anyone who loves the outdoors, that is visiting Split. Amazing scenery, super cool, fun rapids. The staff are fantastic, Toni and Damien were a great laugh, really friendly and told us everything we needed to know to safety navigate the rapids. I would recommend this trip for new Paddlers and people who have paddled before. Toni also had loads of info about rock climbing around Split!

    We had a very fun and exciting canoe tour with Toni as a guide on the Cetina river. Split Adventure organizes well the tour in a way that the boats are not leaving at the same time so it is not crowded on the river.

    There were both nice rapids and calm sections to enjoy the river. The landscape is amazing. We also did some break, where we could take a bath, relax, and enjoy nature.

    Our guide Toni is great, he is very friendly, and takes very good care of you. We always felt safe and at the same time free of movement. He explains very well how to take the rapids, gives you advises and helps you when you're stuck.
    In addition, he is very nice to talk with and gives you very good tips about hidden spots in Croatia.

    We were one person that never experienced canoe, and one person who did several times, and we both enjoyed it very much. So it is a perfect place to discover the activity and at the same time you can get some adrenaline.

    Great experience for our family. Our 9 & 11yr old kids loved it, as did we. It's fun bobbing down the river & rapids and even jumping out for a swim at some points. Easy to book and good communication beforehand. On the day the instructors gave clear guidance for the whole trip and were really friendly. They even gave some advice for the rest of our holiday!! Our only advice would be to eat a big breakfast as you don't get to the end where the restaurant is until 2 / 2.30!! We'd definitely recommend it.

    Antonio and his colleague were excellent tour guides as they navigated us down the Cetina River. It was a great time of learning about nature, going through rapids and jumping into the river.

    Antonio and his colleague ensured the group remained safe while having fun.

    My wife and I would recommend this tour for couples as the canoes hold two people only.

    It was an amazing time!

    It was an amazing experience! Starting at Split, the guide picked us up and drove us to the river location, filling the drive with some amazing tips about the City. Once arrived the enjoyment really started. Peddling in the river, enjoying the rapids and ofcourse bumping around ;)! Our guide also had some photographer skills, which left us with some memorable pictures.

    Damian was the perfect guide from meeting us in Split to getting us kitted out and on to the Cetina River about an hour away. My son and I were the only people on this tour as it was slightly out of season which made the trip even more special. Damian got us negotiating rapids in our 2 man kayak and sometimes even he could help asi managed to fall in (safely) much to my son’s amusement. I’d definitely do this again if I’m in the area.

    It was a really fun trip. Our guide - Antonio - was great. He was confident, charming and really helpful. The pace was excellent with lots of small but fun white water and time to have a quick dip off the boats. The canoes were fun and much quicker than the rafts we passed. The river is beautiful with lots of thick green foliage all along the banks. Antonio even offered ideas (and sent us links by WhatsApp) for hikes and beaches to try the following day. Overall, it was a great way to spend a 1/2 day.

    My girlfriend and I did the canoe safari today, at first she was a bit scared but Antonio took that all away whit his calmness and clear instructions what it was all about.

    He even took some awesome pictures of us and did send them. We had such a great time on the river and the nature was beautiful. I would recommend it to everyone and if you are lucky you wil get Antonio as your guide.
