Best vacation ever! The right mix of structured activities and free time. The guides Borna and Ivan were informative and fun, and patient. Food on the boat was great! Josef the waiter/ bartender was smiling, happy and good at telling us to relax, that it is his job to remove plates etc from the table not ours- “ you are on vacation- just relax”! How nice is that? Cabins ( I was in the upper deck) had lots of room to store your suitcase under the bed. Overall I would recommend this trip to anyone. The bike riding was not all that hard with an e-bike, and was not pressured to ride at any level, other than ride at a speed that is comfortable for you!

Overall my holiday was incredible. The itinerary of the trip was well thought out and the places we visited absolutely beautiful. Our guide Josip was so friendly, inviting and informative. He went above and beyond to make sure we had the best experience on board as well as in every town we visited. I really appreciated how he involved himself in the group and was a central part to everyone getting to know each other so well. The crew of our ship TVRDI were also a highlight, they were friendly, helpful and hard working and we all left feeling so grateful to have got to know them. My only negative experience on sail was the pricing of drinks, activities and recommended restaurants. As young people this experience is already expensive and while I believe the sail itself is well worth it there could be adjustments made to make it more affordable. I would’ve loved to have free or decently priced walking tours included in each place to learn more about the history, culture, and stories.

Genuinely a trip of a life time. i have made friends on this trip i can confidently say I’ll have for life. The staff made the whole trip in my opinion, from our gorgeous tour manager Josip who gave us insight into life living in Croatia, to the gorgeous boat staff who not only were there for all of our needs but also kept the vibes high the entire time. I seriously couldn’t recommend this trip more if i wanted to. Shoutout to everyone on Tvardi, i love them all so much and can’t wait to see them again one day!!!

I loved every minute of it! Before starting the holiday I was nervous about the chances of me making friends on the boat and having a compatible personality with different people but after meeting people the minute we checked in, all my worries went away. Despite it being early season and some places had only just starting to open and pick up, Elena and her crew made sure that we were in the best mood prior to leaving the boat, setting us up for the best nights. I can’t thank the crew enough (Captain Milan, Sailor Frane, Chef Marko, Waiter Marko and Trip Manager Elena) for making my first ever sail week the best experience !! Hvala!!

Great holiday, the staff were excellent and the ship was fantastic. There is room for improvement. More ventilation in the lower cabins, aircon wasn’t effective. The coffee was very bad and there could be more fruit at breakfast and some soap included would be helpful. Also if beach towels are not provided it would be good to know that before we left Australia. Apart from that it was a great part of our trip

Josip was a great guide, gave us honest opinions on how to maximise our time in each location and was great to hang out with. Great group of people, great time

We had the most fantastic time on the Olimp from Split to Dubrovnik. Every island was different and so enjoyable. Vicko was an amazing Tour Guide whose morning briefings about the day ahead, along with his restaurant and other suggestions were excellent. Highlights of the trip were Hvar, Korcula and bike riding through the National Park on Mljet. Captain George took us to some beautiful swim spots along the way, as well as the Blue Cave as well as hosting a brilliant Captain’s Dinner. Linda, Elina and the rest of the crew looked after us so well each and every day. All the meals on board Olimp were delicious and our cabin was perfect. Bravo to all! We will definitely return to Croatia to explore more of this beautiful country.

My time aboard Big Blue from Split to Dubrovnik was one of my favourite weeks of my 6 month solo travel adventure around Europe. All of the guests on board were so fun and easy to get along with that we connected quickly and became like one big family for the entire week. The crew on-board were absolute legends. They provided excellent breakfasts and three course lunches, kept the energy high, the drinks flowing and were endlessly helpful. Similarly, our representative Augustin/Tin Tin was such an icon. He was super friendly and so much fun to be around whilst also being professional and informative when talking about the history of the locations we were visiting and providing dinner recommendations in each port. Overall, I would highly recommend doing a Sail Croatia cruise as it was a great way to travel, have fun and meet new people.

I had the absolute best time!!! Tim Tin was the most amazing rep, he was so helpful, kind, and knew so much about what we were doing and where we were going! He went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. The crew was also amazing, so approachable and friendly. 10/10 recommend this boat

I had the most amazing week on Big Blue! The crew, and especially our amazing rep Tin Tin was so helpful and couldn’t do more to make our trip incredible. The boat was lovely and clean, food was superb, and the activities were so fun! Our sail group was so great, Ive made some life long friends for sure! Literally can not say enough positive things about my experience. If you’re considering going, definitely do it!

EVERYONE NEEDS TO SO A SAIL CROATIA !!!! You will meet the most incredible people and see the most incredible sights!! I already miss it so much !!
- Isobel Williams, 29/05/2026 17:41, Travelled with Friend/s
Each port had it’s own unique vibe and were picked well. The crew and tour manager were fantastic and helpful, and food served by our chef was amazing. The group on our ship were fantastic and could’ve have asked for better! For those wondering about ship facilities there was drinking water, hot (very hot) showers, permanent electricity and fast WiFi on our boat Tuna. Probably one of the best holidays I’ve ever done with the style and small group on board. Will be recommending.

Holiday was amazing. Crew and passengers were lovely. A special shout out to our tour guide Josip. He did an amazing job giving us recommendations and the plans for each day. We also loved that he became a part of our group. And took lots of photos and videos, as well as lots of inside jokes and laughs. Great week all round

Sail Croatia was so much fun! Had the best time with everyone. Food was delicious and staff were very friendly and took good care of us. Our tour guide, Josip, was amazing. Aways making sure we were having a good time and was well informed on all activities/ cities we visited. He honestly made the trip! We have all made many memories together. Would recommend sail Croatia to my friends, especially if Josip is their guide. Said it was his last sail, I wish him all the best with his next career. Sad to see him leave as he’s so passionate about sail.

W enjoyed a great week on the Olimp in May. Could not meet a more professional and enthusiastic team on that boat. The tour was better than expected and we thoroughly enjoyed all the places we visited. The accommodation was excellent and the food very good. We would recommend Sail Croatia to anyone.

We had an amazing time on our Sail Croatia Charter. We booked a one way trip from Split to Dubrovnik and had our skipper Ivan guide us along the way. All of our stops were perfectly planned by Ivan and delivered the perfect vacation. He took time to pick out the best stops for our groups needs. He helped us book dinner reservations, taxi’s and activities on the island. Ivan and the whole Sail Croatia team were very professional and helped give us an amazing vacation!

OMG… this trip was AMAZING! I found Sail Croatia on Google, from my very first enquiry right through to the very last day stepping off the boat, the communication & service were exceptional. My sister & I travelled from Split to Dubrovnik Day 1 unfortunately greeted us with rain, however the crew lifted everyone’s spirits with a welcome drink onboard, cosy blankets & warm hospitality all around. The crew were absolutely incredible, honestly cannot fault any one of them. They all worked so well together as a team. Nikos, the best! He kept us updated daily through both the group chat & verbal briefings, always making sure everyone knew the plans, timings & options available. knowledge of Croatian history & he delivered everything with humour & personality. Captain Frane constantly amazed watching him manoeuvre the boat into each port with such skill. Marco & Vlaho were both hilarious, friendly & absolute joy to see every single day. Julija looked after us/cabins exceptionally. Food Yum!

This trip is without a doubt the most relaxing Europe trip we’ve been on. The way Sail Croatia had this trip planned you really don’t worry about anything; food, activities and transportation. Just how much sun time you want to get. Marin, our guide on board, made every decision feel easy! The transparency and care was so evident in the way he did his job. He was always so helpful and fun to talk with. The crew on board Nieksha and Dom were energetic and made us feel well taken care of. My husband and I made so many friends on board, saying goodbye at the end of the week was difficult. It felt similar to when you leave summer camp as a kid. We hope to cross paths again with everyone some day. I would 100% recommend this experience to my friends and family. Oh and do the zip lining if you get the chance! It was breathtaking!

Big Blue was the best week ever. The crew was phenomenal and worked hard with a smile on their face all day long. From making our drinks to serving us delicious meals to ensuring the trip was smooth sailing to always being down for a chat or to join in on the fun. The rest of the travellers on Big Blue connected instantly and became one big family thanks to our representative Augustin/Tin Tin. He was kind, caring, friendly, funny, and informative throughout the entire trip. Even if you missed breakfast or felt sick etc., it was impossible to complain about the experience and you were always looked after like it was your own family. As someone who went on a plane for the first time, I am so glad I chose to do Sail Croatia and I feel so incredibly lucky that I got to do it with Big Blue. This experience was life-changing and unforgettable. I’ll cherish these memories and the connections I made for the rest of my life! It’s bittersweet that nothing will compare to my week on Big Blue.

I was a little nervous about the trip because it’s just something I’ve never done before even though I’ve solo traveled before. But this was probably my favorite trips I’ve been on. The people on my boat got along so well so that really helped, but the itinerary and activities were amazing! Our trip manager, Tin Tin, was literally the best person ever and made all of our days that much better. The amount of fun I had on this trip altogether can’t be beat! If you’re debating on going, I would absolutely recommend just going for it. Our ship Big Blue will have a special place in my heart forever!
- McKenna, 28/05/2026 16:13, Travelled Solo
fantastic. We were already excited with 12 friends old and new coming together together to go on Sail Croatia. But the fellow passengers and amazing and fun crew just added to it. 2nd time round in Almissa and was as fab as the first time. Clean, comfortable, good food and a great mix of people and ages. having a new stop everyday was great. we could have kept going at the end of the week. Thanks all xxx

We had the most spectacular holiday. The scenery was absolutely amazing with historic towns Sapphire blue water, incredible sunsets and a beautiful boat. Tony And Mattea were amazing hosts. Every day the food was way beyond expectation. Breakfast and lunch were culinary feast. We never felt that they were intruding or that we were an inconvenience. Things just appeared out of nowhere with minimal effort. It’s like they could read our minds, swim, kayak, eat, sleep. They were both very knowledgeable about the towns and islands we were going to with great recommendations for restaurants and sightseeing. I couldn’t recommend this trip anymore and these two amazing people.
- Sally, 28/05/2026 12:41, Travelled with Family
This was a great holiday for us. Great people great food and a wonderful bike ride every day! Croatia is beautiful. We couldn’t get enough of cycling near the aqua coloured ocean. Guides and boat staff were all great.

We sailed on the Romantic Star Wine-Tasting Tour from Dubrovnik to Split and couldn't have asked for a better holiday. The ship was wonderful - spacious rooms, plenty of seating areas in both sun and shade, excellent meals and friendly, professional staff. The wine-tasting experiences were awesome, held in a variety of venues on our various island stops. We also enjoyed the daily swim stops and our freindly fellow passengers. Our guide Klara was second-to-none. Friendly, knowledgeable about our stops, always on hand for help and advice especially about local restaurants for our evening meals, keeping us clearly informed of our daily schedules and very professional. We have already recommended this holiday to friends!

The Cruise was fabulous , the food was delicious, and the cleanliness was excellent. The coordination of tours and activities was always on time and exactly as planned. A big round of applause to everyone on the ship, Chef, waitress and bartender. and the last one Dino, who was always making sure that everyone was doing well.
- Anonymous, 27/05/2026 17:59, Travelled with Friend/s
Our holiday was very relaxing. Dino was 5 stars and so were the rest of the crew. Great way to see the islands. The only reason we rated 4stars instead of 5 is because we would have preferred not to be served a full 3 course meal at lunch. A buffet would have been better. Save the big meal for when we were in the towns. As it was we ate two dinner type meals a day until we decided to just not eat lunch on the ship.

What an absolutely amazing vacation! Sailing on the Olimp, the entire Olimp staff, and our tour director, Vicko, were all so wonderful. The ship itself is stunning and meticulously cared for by the hard-working and kind crew and includes many comfortable places to lounge and take in the view alone or with friends. The service provided by the ship staff is top notch. The food was great and the chef accomodated various dietary requests from the ship's guests. Our itinerary was clearly communicated and detailed destination highlights were provided by our tour director daily, with continuous updates, reminders, and guest questions answered throughout the day; one is always guided with top recommendations for sightseeing and dinners at each stop. It is clear Vicko is well respected by his peers, goes above and beyond, and enjoys what he does, which enhanced the experience for everyone. I recommend this as a must-do vacation for adults of any age!

I filled the quick review onboard but understood there would be a more thorough evaluation of our trip. The biggest concern I had was the food. It was not up to standard. You should hire qualified trained chefs. Thousand island salad dressing was over poured on all salads. White bread for the most part. Not alot of citrus fruit. Overcooked tuna at captains dinner and appetizer unappealing. The captain wore a sweatshirt at the captains dinner. You couldn’t order a glass of wine you needed to buy a bottle. .
