We had an absolutely incredible day on our cycle tour of Hvar. The highlight of the island! Grgo is the kindest person and tells the amazing story of this island through history and his family's experience. The bikes were great and the entire day was so well orchestrated. We never would have been able to experience Hvar like this on our own. At the end of the day, we got to sample his amazing wine and treats from Hvar. I highly recommend this company for a truly enjoyable and memorable experience.

I could not be more pleased with my experience of renting a scooter from Real Hvar. Kristijan is a wonderful, kind man. He supplied me with a map and gave wonderful suggestions for routes to explore the island. I had such a great time that I extended my rental one extra day. He also recommended an out-of-the-way authentic restaurant run by a local family and it was the best meal I’ve had on my trip. I never would have discovered it had he not told me about it. The scooter was reliable and ran well. He even delivered it to my Airbnb as part of an arrangement with my host. It was so convenient. Kristijan also gave me his number and was easily reachable to answer any questions. I feel confident to recommend renting from Real Hvar!

Hvar is a cyclist’s heaven! With challenging mountain trails, seaside windy roads, and plush vineyard flatland... it’s certainly an experience to remember. I stopped to swim in many of the emerald green bays to cool off before carrying on with my ride and it was glorious. I rented an electric bike from Hvar Life and I’m so glad I did. It helped me get through the more strenuous climbs. Massimo was very accommodating with my needs which at first where battery exchanges and then a charger and seat adjustments for my husband. He gave me a map of the island which is pretty big and provided excellent customer service over all. There are two Hvar Life shops on the island, one in Hvar and one in Stadi Grad so it’s convenient to rent regardless which side of the island you are. I highly recommend exploring the lesser known villages of Stadi Grad, Vrboska, and my favorite Yelsa. They are very charming and have beautiful places to swim. Of course Hvar is wonderful too with lots of shopping, dining, and more lovely setting. The prices are fair. The bikes are new and in excellent condition. The ebikes I rented were mountain bikes with thick tires that made it easy to ride off road. I wish I could find such a great bike rental shop as Hvar Life in every place I visit because exploring by bike is such an incredible way to see the world. I can’t wait to do it again next summer!

I rent a 50cc scooter right after leaving the ferry. An employee gave me a very useful map with a suggested route to have a good overview of the island and some restaurant suggestions as well. Then, I rode all day on all the winding mountain roads with my 50km/h pace, not being really bothered by the few cars that have the same speed limit as me. Having a scooter allows to park and stop almost everythere and gives you a feeling of total freedom exploring the island. I gave it back before my ferry departure and spent an awesome day for a good price. Note: it could be a bit scary riding through the dark tunnel to Hvar but no worries, cars will wait calmly behind you and sometimes it seems tricky to ride on top of the hills when it is very windy. But take your time and relax and everything would be fine!

I've waited way too long to post this review as I wanted to sit and write a novel about how great everything was. However, I'm way overdue and just need to say that Grgo and his family made our trip to Hvar so special. My husband and I did the private Red tour and between the hospitality of Grgo and learning so much more about the Island than you can find by simply staying in town, this is a great option. PLENTY of wine too which is what we were looking for. Thank you, Grgo! We hope to return one day.
