The wind too strong for SUPing the morning we had booked, so Given2Fly gave us the option to reschedule, get a full refund, or change our SUP tour to a Kayak tour instead. Since we had no other mornings in Split available, we went with the Kayak tour, and I’m glad we did! Our guide Joke was fantastic - friendly, charming, and helpful, even risking the safety of his phone to take some excellent pictures of us. We kayaked at a leisurely pace and had many swim stops. A lovely way to spend a morning in Split, highly recommend!
TIPS:
- Do check your emails /messages before you leave for the tour in case the tour company is trying to contact you; I only got the notification about the change due to weather conditions when I was waiting at the meeting point because I was in a rush and the internet at my place wasn’t working properly.
- Confirm the starting point with Give2Fly beforehand; I booked through TripAdvisor and they have two different meeting points listed (Bene beach or St Francis Church) so it was a bit confusing, so the best way is to directly contact the company itself. You need a special permit to get to Bene beach by car so the only other way is by bus from outside St Francis Church. However, Mariska from G2F and her cute dog Oliver were kind enough to give us a ride as we were the only 3 people on the tour that morning.
