Cetina River rafting - perfect getaway

We’re proud to be a 5-star experience on Google and TripAdvisor!

Unlike the classic schedule of morning and afternoon departures, we’ve chosen a different path — we’re the only company offering a single, well-timed tour, scheduled between the busy hours of the larger operators. This allows us to avoid the crowds and move at a more relaxed pace, so you can fully enjoy the river without feeling rushed.

Our trip is designed to be both adrenaline-filled and relaxed, with many extra activities along the way. We keep our group small and personal, so the whole experience feels more like a local adventure than a commercial tour.

What's included?

Much more then just rafting!

START

We will pick you up at our meeting point in Split at 9:30 AM.

Alternatively, you can drive to our village house by the river Cetina to begin the experience. The meeting time in our village is 10:30 AM.

Our departure time is carefully planned to avoid crowds and ensure a relaxed, full river experience.

QUICK REFRESHMENT

We start with coffee and pastries at our village house to fuel up for the day, offering you a glimpse of authentic Dalmatian village life.

RAFTING + EXTRAS

A 4-hour adventure through the 12km long river canyon begins. Paddling, cliff jumping (4,6,8,10m), exploring an underwater spring cave, swimming under a waterfall, and experiencing canyoning by letting yourself glide through rapids.

We’ll take a refreshing swimming break and enjoy a relaxing picnic by the river, with refreshments and snacks we provide.

FINISH

To end the trip, we'll toast homemade brandy. The trip usually ends around 16:30-17:00h. Add to that time to get to Split (1 hour) or your departure point, if you are coming with your car.

BONUS

You'll receive an edited version of the video and photos taken with a GoPro a few days after the trip. We guarantee an unforgettable and different experience!

Cetina white water rafting - ITINERARY

More than just rafting!

Get ready for a different rafting experience on the Cetina River!
We begin at our village house, where you’ll enjoy coffee and pastries, and get a glimpse of traditional life in a Dalmatian village.

Perfect departure time!

To make sure you enjoy a peaceful and relaxed experience, we carefully plan our departure between the busy morning and afternoon slots of larger companies, avoiding the crowds, and giving you the river almost entirely to yourselves.
We run just one tour per day, which means there's no rushing – we take our time so you can fully enjoy every part of the adventure.

The River Adventure

The first part of the river is calm – perfect for learning the basics of paddling.
Our 12 km route leads through a breathtaking canyon, surrounded by unspoiled nature.

We’ll pass through magical green tunnels of tree branches before the river gets a bit wilder and more exciting. Along the way, you’ll navigate through Grade II and III rapids, which are safe and fun for beginners and children (6+).

Extra Fun Along the Way

This isn’t just rafting – it’s a full-on river adventure!
You'll have the chance to:

  • Jump from cliffs (4, 6, 8, or 10 meters)
  • Swim under a waterfall
  • Explore a beautiful, hidden spring cave behind the waterfalls
  • Experience canyoning (swim through rapids)
  • Enjoy a picnic break on the riverside

All activities are optional – you can always choose to swim, relax in the sun, or just enjoy the view.

The Finale

After about 4 hours on the river, we reach the beautiful Radman’s mills, where you can relax before heading back.
Our van will be waiting with your dry clothes and belongings.
The tour usually ends around 16:30–17:00.

Bonus: Memories Captured!

Your adventure will be filmed with a GoPro, and we’ll send you an edited video and photos after the tour – included in the price!
