Mia made it great. Sebastian is very talented and fed us well. Tina? What can I say. She kept the party going.

Vacation in May

Best vacation ever! We sailed to Brač, Hvar, and Vis, spent a night at anchor, and swam in the most beautiful coves. Our skipper was very helpful and responsible, sharing lots of fun facts and stories about the islands. Definitely recommend!!

Cruise with friends to celebrate birthdays.

The boat, staff and especially the cruise director Mia. She made it fun and informative and was a pleasure to be around. Every day was exciting and fun. We always knew what was happening and what to plan for. She kept us well informed and shared so much of the history and stories of the areas that we visited. Everything was great and I would highly recommend this trip to other friends.

Best holiday experience!!!

The combination of cruising, cycling and exploring the islands along the southern Dalmatia was perfect. The experienced guides were the best! Thank you Jošco and Ana. The captain and his crew were always helpful and accommodating. The chef's dishes were always tasty. I will Sail Croatia and cycle again!

Great Trip

It was a wonderful adventure to a region of this world I had not considered venturing to before. The ship took great care of us on board and Mia, our official cat herder, did a fantastic job of steering us through a series of wonderful excursions focused both on culture, as well as the local vineyards!

Great way to see beautiful Croatia

We both had a wonderful time , Our upper deck cabin was spacious and cool . The boat crew very professional and friendly. All meals were delicious and well presented. We chose Ebikes , we're on holiday so hills were easy . Bikes great to ride , internal hub gears foolproof and great brakes for the long decent . The daily rides good balance of terrain and scenery . Our guides Tonka and Anita were wonderful, Tonka at the front keeping an course and safe and Anita at the back motivating the stragglers. They also did ride briefings in the morning and suggestions for restaurants and things to see when in port . Thanks to all , great fun 😁

Awesome trip...

Awesome trip What an amazing time we had on Emanuel with 29 on board. Our guides Josko and Ana were brilliant and passionate about their country and history which was shared with us at stops along the way. Great crew and Ben our waiter/bar tender is an amazing young man who worked non stop to make sure everyone was fed and watered. The meals George produced were great. The whole trip was amazing, E-bikes the best, cycling the islands an experience not to be missed and great company of the other 27 passengers. This trip is up there as one of the better holidays we have had. We'll certainly recommend it to others. Thanks for a memorable holiday.

- Tony and Anne, 06/05/2025 15:35, Travelled in a Couple

Fabulous Trip

The crew on MS Emanuel were fantastic. The captain owns the boats d you can really tell in the way he personally runs the ship as well as in the crew he has hired. Perhaps even more notable were our guides. Our lead guide, Jobsko was really great. You can feel his leadership from the first time he speaks to address the group. He was great at the cycle route planning and nimble execution to respond to issues along the route. He always had everyone’s safety and comfort top of mind. He explained everything clearly and answered all questions until everyone was clear and ready. Josip was also paired with a second guide who is working her way up. It was great to see him mentoring her and giving her the opportunity to lead and get the experience and confidence she needs to move up. As a team the entire crew a d guides worked well together and with all needed communications to ensure the guests had the best trip possible. M

Wonderful trip!

Anita and Tonka as well as the crew on the boat made this an incredible trip! The bike rides included a good mix of challenge as well as “Story Time” to learn about the area and sights we were seeing. I really appreciated their mix of humor and kindness on the trip. These two ladies truly made this a memorable experience. I’d highly recommend this trip. For those worried about the biking aspect, the e-bikes are a great option.

Party of 29

What a fantastic time we had, not being a cyclist riding the EBikes was the best thing. We were able to take in all the views that each day gave us. Our cycle guides Josko and Ann were simply the best. Loved the tales we were told at many stops. Thank you also to our crew, Ben our waiter was amazing one person to look after 29 of us. We will be back

- Stephen , 06/05/2025 06:32, Travelled with Family

Unforgettable

Easily the best holiday of my life!! The boat crew and Sail Croatia staff exceeded expectations. Lola and Mate made the trip so memorable and enjoyable. They are extremely knowledgeable and we loved learning so much about Croatia during our trip. We had an awesome group of fellow travellers on the boat with us who became our beloved boat family and life long friends. We will be back!

Best week of our trip!

Our Cycling Croatia Cruise with Sail Croatia exceeded our expectations from the quality of the boat and bikes, the professional staff and our exceptional guides. Tonka was our lead and her communication and preparedness made each of our rides enjoyable and rewarding. We had fun, laughs and met so many wonderful people, it could not have been better. Thank you for the memorable experience.

- Sheila, 06/05/2025 01:38, Travelled in a Couple

Wonderful Experience

The bike guides, Tonka and Anita were fantastic as well as the boat crew. Loved the stories and history lessons. Comfortable accommodations on the boat and good meals. Beautiful rides with some challenging spots. Beautiful country. Thoroughly enjoyed the entire week.

- Judy, 05/05/2025 19:29,

Excellent experience

The combination of sailing to see the landscape and biking through the country side was superb. Loved be educated by tour guides on history of Croatia.

Sail Croatia (Emmanuel)

Josko and Ana were absolutely fantastic guides. We had the most wonderful time. They took us to amazing places that we will never forget. We really enjoyed the short stories that they shared with us about the histories from towns/islands that we cycled and sailed through. We were well informed every day about our cycling routes and they always made it such a fun briefing. They were always professional and respectful. We would highly recommend them and would love to go on another cycling tour again. We also loved meeting all of the crew. Special shout out to Benjo our bartender and waiter who worked tirelessly for 8 days. There was nothing that was too hard for him and he always worked with a smile on his face. Such a lovely young man. We had many, many laughs with him. George our chef excited us day after day with amazing food. Well done it was delicious. Overall we had the time of our lives. Thank you.

Sail Croatia biking tour

Tour guides Tonka and Anita made this the best tour I’ve ever been on. They truly care about making it the Magical experience it was. My daughter and I had a wonderful time. I recommend this biking tour to anyone. Thank you for the memories!! Susan

- Susan, 05/05/2025 12:57, Travelled with Family

Great Experience - Would Recommend

I travelled solo, on the Emanuel boat on the Cycling cruise from Split to Dubrovnik. Cycling was a great way to see the different islands of Croatia. The guides (Ana and Josko) knew the area really well, and organised a fun ride on each island with beautiful views. The e-bike allowed me to sweat or relax as much as I wanted. There were 3 people who got a regular bike (no e-assist) but they were pretty serious cyclists. I'd recommend an e-bike unless you want a difficult bike ride on your holiday. I appreciated the daily stops for swimming off the boat too! I really enjoyed the schedule of breakfast and lunch on the boat - With a 2-3 hour cycle in between. And then you get your own free time to explore an island after lunch. Great way to explore, relax, eat local, and experience each island. As a solo traveler, I paid a 50% extra to have my own room. It's worth it for me, but to each their own. I'd highly recommend this cruise, and hope I get to go again soon!!

- Andrew, 05/05/2025 12:34, Travelled Solo

Amazing Adventure

Firstly Josko and Ana created a fun, informative, considerate and expertly supported experience. We felt extremely secure in their leadership. Secondly the whole group were inclusive, fun and we very quickly felt like we had known each other forever. Thirdly the Captain Ante and crew who were all so friendly and helpful, made sure our holiday was smooth and comfortable, with lots of swim stops and perfect timing. And finally the scenery, rides,and weather were all breathtaking ( literally as I was on an analogue bike !!) A truly life changing experience - would definately recommend . Thank you .

Best Holiday Ever

We met an amazing group of people on board the cruise. We went to some fabulous destinations The staff and guide were exceptional The boat was lovely There was nothing I would have changed

- Melanie, 05/05/2025 10:19, Travelled in a Couple

Cycle Fun

The cycle experience was amazing. Great bikes, easy to use, even for late 60 year olds relatively new to ebikes. Each day was another 'wow' experience. Josko and Ana great tour guides who each day explained what could expect the following day and also during the cycle. The islands were fantastic, not too busy in mid April, weather for us was brilliant..21-33 each day and fine Our negatives were beds not very comfortable. The food was varied some great, some not so,

- Dianne , 05/05/2025 08:48, Travelled in a Couple

My sister and I spent the week doing to hiking trip. The crew were all fantastic, both of our guides were knowledgeable and fun. The food was amazing. We can’t recommend this enough.

Lost in the Adriatic

The guides Marte and Lola brought Croatia to life for us. They had love and enthusiasm in showing us the history and beauty of their home. There was a genuine feeling of exploration and excitement within our group. The crew on board the Salve di Mare were so welcoming as well, whilst they worked so hard at their jobs.

Amazing trip!

The crew definitely, the food , the stops on the islands and the very knowledgeable tour guides Miranda and Josip definitely made this trip our top one.. should be on everyone’s bucket list!

- Linda , 02/05/2025 10:52, Travelled in a Couple

Highly Recommend!!!

The Sail Cycle is one of my favorite holidays to date. The Emmanuel was clean, comfortable and the crew went out of their way to make us feel at home. Chef George’s meals were not only delicious but also kept us energized for each ride. Our guides Miranda and Josip were friendly, helpful and always ready with a fun fact about Croatia. They kept us informed about the day’s plans and ensured everything went smoothly. I can’t recommend this trip enough. It was truly an unforgettable experience filled with adventure, great food, and even better people.

- Clifford, 29/04/2025 17:57, Travelled in a Couple

Dinos special seven

We were lucky with two things: first there were only seven of us on our cruise which made it feel like a group of old friends. Second was our tour guide Dino. Always happy. Very informative and could not have been more helpful. He was the main reason for our highly successful cruise.

- Anonymous, 29/04/2025 12:31, Travelled in a Couple

Best cruise ever

Although there we only 7 guests on the cruise, nothing was reduced by the crew or the services provided, they we always available and attentive. Very professional but always friendly. The tour guide, Dino, made the journey interesting but also entertaining with his stories and history of all things Croatian. His rapport with our small group turned the trip from great to unforgettably amazing. He built a connection among the group which has created what will undoubtedly be some life long friendships. Our next cruise we will looking for the Olimp and insist on Dino!

- bryan, 29/04/2025 09:04, Travelled in a Couple

Dino

The beautiful ship Olimp, the crew and best of all our guide Dino. He was our ideal guide, friendly, knowledgeable, fantastic sense of humour, always there for us. The places we docked Dino was there always to provide all the places we wanted to see and eat. Sail Croatia gave us the best holiday of our lives in a very beautiful country. Thankyou.

Only way to see Croatia

The yacht is beautiful, the staff amazing, food, delicious, well organized, great cruise director, Dino, all islands we stopped in, were beautiful, and Dino insured that we saw and did everything we should do and each and every stop. Dino kept us well informed, and was such a pleasure to travel with. All of the crew on the Olympic were a pleasure to travel with

Sailing Crotia

Elegance Croatia Cruise

The cruise was beyond my expectation! The ship, the accommodation and the food (!) were exceptional. The Ambiance onboard the Olymp was wonderful, and largely a result of the energy and humour of our tour guide, Dino! We were only seven passengers, but we were all very pleased with our trip amd will soon repeat. Thank you for a first view of an unknown ( to Me) part of the world. We all learned a lot and appreciate the efforts of the crew.

- Julie, 29/04/2025 04:58,

Crew part of your family

The crew went to great lengths daily to address any questions or concerns. The food was great and if you liked your morning eggs other than was offered, the cook took orders. The cycling staff was very attentive to your safety and to each person physically being able to do days planned route. All in all great service for an affordable price.

Sail Croatia Explorer Cruise on Salve Di Mare – A Truly Unforgettable Experience!

Our week aboard the Salve Di Mare with Sail Croatia was nothing short of amazing! Every stop was perfectly chosen, offering the ideal balance of rich history, relaxing coastal vibes, and absolutely stunning scenery. As the first cruise of the season, it was wonderfully peaceful — the towns were quiet but still full of charm, giving us a chance to enjoy Croatia without the usual crowds. The ship itself was stunning: modern, spacious, and beautifully maintained. The crew were incredibly helpful, friendly, and truly made us feel like part of one big family. Special mention goes to our guide, Anita, who was simply next-level amazing. Her passion and deep knowledge of Croatian history made every moment memorable. She went above and beyond to ensure we experienced the very best Croatia has to offer, and by the end, it felt like we had known her forever. If you're considering this trip, my one tip would be to fly/start in Split and fly/finish out of Dubrovnik with a few nights in each.

- Chelsea, 28/04/2025 09:03, Travelled with Family

Great sailing and cycling

The itinerary was excellent as was the cycling with great scenic routes that allowed us to see parts of the country we would not otherwise have done. The weather and amazing group of people were the icing on the cake. What was less good was the interstaff bickering which at times bordered on unprofessional and was making some guests feel a little uncomfortable Finally it should be stressed to guests to absolutely not jump from the top deck which is slippy and one guest really badly bruised herself in slipping off

Ceira, Sales Rep at Sail Croatia replied 2025-05-01:

Hi Anne, thank you for your 4-star review. We're delighted to hear you enjoyed the itinerary, scenic cycling routes, and the great group atmosphere—it’s wonderful to know these made your experience special. We’re sorry to hear that some onboard interactions made you feel uncomfortable. While the crew onboard were newly formed and still finding their rhythm, we agree professionalism must always be maintained, and we will share this with the relevant teams. Regarding the safety concern, we appreciate you highlighting it. Our onboard representative does cover this during the welcome briefing, and signage is visible and in place on the top deck. Thank you again for your helpful review.

Good first cruise

The crew on our boat was amazing. It was our very first cruise of any kind. We ran into some nasty weather and they did their best to make the best of the situation. Our shower door, however, would not stay closed during the rough seas and it kept banging against the wall and we were afraid the glass would break. We finally put suitcases in front to hold it still. My only “complaint” would be that we were told we needed to be off the ship at 9 in the morning. Our flight was not until afternoon and it being Easter.. all the luggage storage places were closed. A number of people were allowed to stay on until 10:30 and that would have make a huge difference for us. We would have eaten a much bigger breakfast instead of thinking we could find a decent breakfast in town while toting our suitcases. However.. This was the only down side . I would highly recommend this company as the overall experience was wonderful. We had a great crew and fellow passengers.

Exciting way to explore the Dalmatian Islands!

A Wonderful Relaxing Experience!

Miranda, Tonka, Ivica x 2, Ilija, Ivan, Miro, Mate. Everyone was so kind and helpful. We had the most interaction with our guides Miranda and Tonka and with our server Miro...they were so wonderful. There was nothing they would not do for us...rolled with the punches...gave us everything we needed...and more! The cabins were a good size, lots of storage and lots of hot water. The itinerary was perfect and we got to see lots of places both on and on the bikes. We had some travel problems but not one issue while on the cruise. Loved it!
