This was such a fun, relaxing and memorable time and Marin & Johnny as well as the rest of the crew worked so hard to make it easy and smooth for us every day of the week. Everyone was so receptive to suggestions and feedback and always ensured that all of us were having a great time - which we were. <3 sail Croatia

Mila and Lola were great leaders and assistants. They went out of their way to regain my lost suitcase. Their planning, enthusiasm, knowledge and sense of humour made this first solo trip special. Our servers/ assistants were helpful and caring. All team members were respectful, and went out of their way to make sure that all sailors were happy. The hikes were challenging but so satisfying to know that I met the challenge Amazing trip and I’m recommending others to go! Thanks to all!

My navigator cruise from Split to Dubrovnik was an amazing week. The crew was great, the food was delicious and our tour guide Marin was awesome. Despite a few changes to the itinerary due to weather, Marin made sure we had a great time and organised the week perfectly. Definitely would recommend this to anyone looking into Sail Croatia!
- Monica, 26/05/2025 14:56, Travelled Solo
I did the navigator en-suite cruise on kapetan jure boat and it was quite literally the time of my life. There was a good mix of solo travelers and groups and everyone was so fun and kind. The crew was truly phenomenal. They were so accommodating and understanding and helpful. The food was so so good I came in with low expectations and was blown away by lunch everyday! A special shoutout and thank you to Marin our fearless leader! He was so amazing and honest with us about what we would enjoy and what we wouldn’t. He handle course changes with grace and always made sure we were all okay and having fun! I trust that man with my life! I’m leaving with only the very best memories and lots of new friends!!
- Grace, 26/05/2025 13:15, Travelled Solo
Marin my tour guide was amazing, he made the whole trip so easy for me, I got to sit back drink and relax while he took care of our every need onboard. He made sure I was informed of everything happening onboard and off, and could answer any question I asked. Johnny the assistant tour guide was just as great they both together made for a great time onboard. Shoutout to Romeo the bartender for his fantastic work as well and to the rest of the crew from the Kapetan Jure they were all lovely and amazing. Kind regards, Jayden

10/10 from Elena, Matteo and the whole crew. They made the whole week a great experience and got our whole group involved in all the activities and of course the bell rings. Keep up the good work :)
- Amelia, 24/05/2025 09:02, Travelled Solo
Great crew first and foremost. Run by Elena who was super engaging. At one point she went out of her way to get me onto an activity that I would've otherwise missed, which I really appreciated. The rest of the boat's crew were very professional and seemed to go out of their way to make sure we all had a good time. Lots of food as well and all of it very yummy. Otherwise I thought it was a really great way to see parts of Croatia that I otherwise would have missed or simply not known about, and the opportunity for long swim breaks every day was great. Boat was clean and tidy and highly livable. Couldn't complain about a single thing, just wish it was longer!
- Lachie, 22/05/2025 14:22, Travelled Solo
Had one of the best weeks ever on Mlini with our absolutely fantastic rep Elena, and our crew Mateo! Great activities during the day, and some very memorable nights out as well. The crew really ensured that we had a great time, the food was delicious and the itinerary was jam packed but with enough down time as well. Travelling just before peak was the best decision too!
- Sasha, 22/05/2025 14:13, Travelled Solo
Elana was a legend, she was really informative and got the group involved in the activities, Mateo was the best drink maker ever, and the rest of the crew were great. Highly recommend sail for solo people as well as groups, we swam heaps, played card games, drinking games and just had the best week!

Noura was a queen. Really fun trip with a good group.
- Anonymous, 22/05/2025 10:56, Travelled Solo
Had a wonderful time on board the boat Tuna. The onboard crew were absolutely fantastic and extremely helpful and my tour representative (Nouraia) was incredible at organising every day to run as smoothly as possible. Days were packed with a wide range of activities to choose from in some beautiful cities around croatia and there was never a dull moment.

This was my first time on Sail Croatia cycling cruise, and it far exceeded anything I Imagined, The cycling routes were stunning, with breathtaking vistas. Immersed in the scent of lavender and rosemary along the way, and the olive groves lining the landscape.. What truly made the trip exceptional were the two cycling guides, Ivica and Anita. Their skill and attention to saftey helped me feel completely at ease. Ivica went beyond expectations with optional bonus rides and hikes. His deep knowledge of the area's routes and history added an unexpected layer of richness to the experience. Anita's warmth and knowledge of history and restaurant recommendations made them a great duo. The crew of the Mall Ante were warm, attentive and made us feel completely taken care of. I felt like part of the family. I already have reccomended Sail Croatia and I just got back two days ago. Thank you to everyone who made my solo trip the first of many cycling trips to come.
- Marianne, 22/05/2025 03:47, Travelled Solo
The boat “ Mali Anti “ was more comfortable and larger than I expected. My cabin was large with wardrobe and cupboard space again more than I am used to on smaller boats . The shower and bathroom was clean and functional . The Crew were always around to help , immaculate in serving us and attending all our needs . The food was enjoyable and plenty bearing in mind we were cycling every day . I met many new friends and had a fun time which was again above my expectations. The crew who took us on our cycle trips , Ivica and Anita were brilliant. Helped us all from flat tyres repair , advice on restaurants, bars.interesting stories of the history of all the locations and islands they took us to . They made us safe and looked after us making the whole week just perfect The islands were stunning , cycling through beautiful villages , vineyards and deserved coffee stops meant I had such a fabulous holiday I am back home for 2 days and have booked again for next year!
- Alison, 21/05/2025 19:07, Travelled Solo
Three reasons to go. Boat: Gorgeous comfy boat and cabin with such beautiful wood work with lots of places for the guests to spread out and relax. Bike: Awesome bike riding through all terrain with a close up view of each island. I am not a big bike rider but an relatively fit so found the rides enjoyably challenging. Never felt rushed. Ebikers went ahead and classic bikes hung back and paced themselves. And the food! Being a vegetarian I did not want to get my hopes up but boy did they impress me. Incredibly well prepared food. And with all the biking I had an appetite that was well satisfied. And consider yourself blessed if you get Ivan and Marin as your guides. Those guys took such good care of everyone - especially me being the only solo guest. And Marvin's historical briefings for each island was something I looked forward to each day! Thanks for the lifetime memories!
- Sandy, 21/05/2025 16:49, Travelled Solo
Everything was well planned and organized; however, our guide and crew used their best discretion to adapt the agenda as conditions warranted. Croatia is breathtakingly gorgeous. Our guide Andro was simply outstanding. The boat was nice, the food was great across the board, and the crew worked so hard to make it fun. And we were blessed with great shipmates for this trip. And did I mention that Croatia is breathtakingly gorgeous?
- Bill, 21/05/2025 10:42, Travelled Solo
I was initially undecided about doing a group sailing trip, but am very glad I did. Klara and the Almissa team did a fantastic job making sure we were looked after, fed, and entertained. The Stari Grad wine tasting and morning swim stops were the highlights. Klara went out of her way to ensure we knew exactly what was happening when, and you never felt it was a nuisance asking for help. There was a good mix of ages and mostly Australians, Kiwis & Americans in the group. Would recommend.
- Katie, 17/05/2025 09:37, Travelled Solo
Had the best time ever. I was a little nervous travelling on my own and about motion sickness but had the best time ever and have made friends for life. Our guides Anita and Mate were incredible. They made the whole experience memorable. I did the Hike and Cruise trip and it had the right amount of activity and relaxation. Anita and Mate briefed us on the hike each morning and safely took us and brought us back. They made great recommendations for other activities to do once we got back as well as dinner recommendations. We sailed on the Salve De Mare. The Captain and his crew were great. The cabins were very comfortable, and the lunches were incredible. Captain's dinner was also very good. If i had to say something negative cause everything can't be perfect, it would be, need better coffee on the boat! I would recommend this trip to anyone. The age range of our group was 52 to 72 and the hike was manageable by all.
- Kannama, 13/05/2025 19:39, Travelled Solo
My ship was beautiful and the captain was clearly proud to have built it with his family. The accommodations were clean and spacious. Food was phenomenal. The guide was knowledgeable and honest - not just pushing sales or pressuring guests to use certain businesses. Croatia itself was welcoming and gorgeous. An island bike ride was a high point as was a local farm to table dinner.
- Stacey, 13/05/2025 18:56, Travelled Solo
The ship is a classic beauty nicely updated. The service,crew and food superb. Vicko our rep, always kept us well informed and did a great job. Well organised and well planned 7 days cruise. An unmissable experience!
- Edgar , 13/05/2025 13:09, Travelled Solo
From the moment I met Karolina and a few other passengers quayside at Split I felt welcome and comfortable. (I am 73 and travel solo). Over lunch we were given a full orientation about the ship and the week ahead: scheduled swim stops, shore excursions, meal times etc. My fellow passengers were a great mix of personalities, from reserved to more lively and we all got on so well (lucky/blessed). The Captain and crew, from front of house and in the background were efficient and fun. Special mention goes to our Cruise Director Karolina whose care and attention to detail were exceptional! We had the opportunity to swim every day which I did despite the water temperature, hence my given cruise name!! I can’t recommend this company/trip highly enough! Croatia is the most beautiful country; the people who live there are lovely (nearly everyone understands English), its history, food and wine absolutely great.
- Gillian , 13/05/2025 05:44, Travelled Solo
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!!
- Matea, 08/05/2025 05:34, Travelled Solo
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!
- Frederick , 07/05/2025 14:52, Travelled Solo
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
The ship..The crew The guides..The food..All were amazing..Hikes were fantastic and challenging..Loved every minute of it..Fellow passengers were fantastic..We all had great time. Didn't want it to end. I will be back.
- Kevin , 05/05/2025 02:33, Travelled Solo
My trip was almost year ago, but I can’t stop thinking about how great my week was with Sail Croatia. Tilly was the best rep who guided us through the week with grace and kindness and was always there when we needed her. Would come back again!
- Alyssa, 13/04/2025 09:54, Travelled Solo
Rooms spacious, the excursions were well planned and brilliant. Our host Anita was friendly and very helpful. The sailing team were friendly and helpful. The food could have been better, the portions however were generous. Swim stops lovely. Would have liked the hot tub warmer when it was available to use. The team were very organised and gave us all the info on stops, timings and what to do at each port. It is a fantastic boat the captain and crew were exceptional!
- Lauren, 27/10/2024 12:48, Travelled Solo
I had a wonderful time. The cruise was amazing...beautiful food, friendly staff and excellent hike guidance by Marte and Andro. I can't say enough to thank everyone for looking after me so well.
- Sue Ashmore, 27/10/2024 07:58, Travelled Solo
The tour was a wonderful way to see some of Croatia, relax, and enjoy some outdoor and cultural activities. Ioana was a fantastic tour guide and the crew on the boat provided excellent service. The history tour in Split was very interesting, the wine tasting in Korcula was lovely, bike riding in Mljet and Makarska (private rental) was a great way to see the area, and going up the cable car in Dubrovnik provided amazing views of the city and coastline. I enjoyed the swim stops and the option to use the on-board paddle board and kayak, and the food onboard was delicious and plentiful. There was a good mix of down-time and activities/walking in the towns to keep things fun and interesting. We weren't able to do all of the excursions due to weather conditions, but it wasn't a big issue (and they were often quite pricey). I enjoyed seeing a number of different locations, while returning to the same room every night and getting to know the many wonderful people on the tour.
- Aimee, 26/10/2024 22:10, Travelled Solo
This holiday was a total knock out and far exceeded my expectations. Our two guides, Marin and Mila, were fantastic. They are both passionate about: cycling, Croatian history and maintaining the authentic side of Croatia. Both had safety top of their list - even adapting rides for me as I am afraid of heights. The food was great and as much as I enjoyed the cycling - which was my main reason for booking this holiday - I also enjoyed all of the walks and talks on Croatian history. Without doubt I'll be back!
- Vicky, 15/10/2024 19:14, Travelled Solo
The other passengers were lovely and kind. The staff were very professional and helpful. Ivana was a brilliant Tour Manager too.
- Julie Bozicevic , 15/10/2024 15:36, Travelled Solo
The crew and Lozza made great changes to accommodate the weather conditions. It was such a great week to end the Sail Croatia season! Loz was awesome... couldn't have picked a better person to handle us all... if I could do sail again, I'd want her there along for the ride.
- Anonymous, 10/10/2024 09:50, Travelled Solo
travelling solo for the first time was daunting to me, however from start to finish sailing on the Emanuel with the skilled and friendly skipper, the chef, who treated us with delicious meals, to Ivan and the other hands on board this experience got better and better. Tour guides Mila and Anita were passionate about their beautiful home country of Croatia and their enthusiasm for our day to day activities made this the perfect trip to include daily Hikes, swims in stunning locations, local knowledge and ensured everyone on board this lovely, comfortable ship had the best time. Of cause the highlight for me were the other 25 passengers I met. All like minded people from around the globe and im sure we will all remain friends. We had so much fun ! I cant wait to organise my next Sail Croatia Cruise as Ive never had such a rewarding and much needed life changing holiday.....Until next time
- DALE, 05/10/2024 04:41, Travelled Solo
Bought the explorer sail package and it was absolutely perfect. Wake up, have breakfast buffet on board, the captain would drop us off for a swim stop (1-3 hours), then it’s a 3 course lunch, right as we finish our lunch we have arrived at our new destination. We then had the rest of the day to explore at our own pace or sign up for the additional excursions. It was the perfect balance of scheduled and free time. I can’t wait to go back to Croatia!
- Han, 03/10/2024 15:56, Travelled Solo
I highly recommend doing Sail Croatia! I boarded not knowing anyone and left with the most incredible group of friends. I loved every minute of the trip and it’s such an easy way to visit many different destinations in Croatia. I booked the Navigator Cruise and was placed on the Tuna ship with the most incredible crew. I want to give a massive shout out to Toni our Tour Manager who made the trip so much better! Toni and the crew always went above and beyond and I am forever grateful for them all.
- Gemma , 03/10/2024 11:45, Travelled Solo
Absolutely one of the best weeks I have had in the duration of my trip! Lozza was an unreal representative, every night she’d have suggestions for where to go to diner and then where to go out afterwards, the group dinners she organised were unreal too, and of course the vibe throughout the whole day. The ship was great, plenty of space in the room given you want to spend most of it on the sun deck, or having Mateo make you a cocktail! Great size ship as well, big enough for everyone to have their own space, but small enough that everyone can still hang out easily. The crews response to poor weather, quickly swapping around what day we attended certain stops to give us more pleasant weather was also great. All in all, a fantastic trip that I 100% would do again!
- Riley, 03/10/2024 05:31, Travelled Solo
I had the best time on my sail, Marin was the best trip manager! So knowledgeable and friendly, highly recommend.
- Samantha, 03/10/2024 03:30, Travelled Solo
The product was great as we had excellent service from the staff onboard the boat. We were provided with great information about the areas we visited and given great tips on what activities to do
- Benjamin, 02/10/2024 06:09, Travelled Solo
Lauren’s ability to party all the way hard, organise fun day to the maximum and her amazing mind body soul made all of my days completely awesome to me. Beers could’ve been cheaper though.
- Brennan, 01/10/2024 08:56, Travelled Solo
Excellent week from Lauren and Mlini crew
- Miles, 01/10/2024 05:43, Travelled Solo
Had an absolutely fantastic time sailing on the Kapetan Jure ship in late September. Weather was perfect for most of the week, food was delicious, and Marin and the crew went above and beyond to make sure everybody felt safe and included! Cannot recommend highly enough!
- Matt, 30/09/2024 20:29, Travelled Solo
The people were so amazing ! Our guide Marin really interacted with us and was available whenever you needed help. This was my first solo trip and I couldn't have asked for a better experience :)
- Alexa, 30/09/2024 14:59, Travelled Solo
Had the best time with the most amazing 24 fellow passengers from Australia, U.K., Canada, US, South Africa, and New Zealand, Our guides Mila and Anita were fabulous, professional and knowledgeable-thank you both so much! Ship - Emmanuel. The Captain, crew and chef (captains mum) were wonderful. Always professional, hospitable and safety paramount on board. Thank you all for looking after us like family and showing us your beautiful country and incredible islands! Customer service from Sail Croatia in london were great from start to finish - thank you! Cruise hike has been a fabulous experience and highly recommended. Kindest regards Stacey English
- Stacey, 30/09/2024 09:35, Travelled Solo
The Sail Croatia Team and boat crew were superb from beginning to end. Hiking was challenging and rewarding with spectacular views. Meals are home cooked and delicious. The island ports are charming. We had a captain's dinner one night, a pizza night, lots of swimming, etc. It is a n active trip. But what made this cruise so special was making friends with the other travelers. As one person said, " It's the people. It's the people. It's the people! I have traveled a lot and this would rank as one of the best. Do it!
- Brent, 30/09/2024 06:01, Travelled Solo
I had a great time on the Pacific. Toma our manager and crew were the best. Everyone was positive and always happy to help. We had a great time in all the cities, swim stops were all beautiful. Big shout out to the crew, they were great!!!
- Adrian Kotevski, 27/09/2024 07:43, Travelled Solo
First of all, the crew and host were the best. Lauren, Mateo, Frane, Lucinda and Nevan took such great care of us all and we’re always approachable and friendly. The tour itself was a great mix of activities, swimming and relaxation, as well as nights out. When weather and things out of the crews control occurred, the team ensured our safety and provided us with alternative arrangements which was much appreciated. Can not speak more highly of my experience.
- Samantha, 26/09/2024 12:24, Travelled Solo
All round a great week with an amazing crew, felt extremely safe at all times, food on board was more than fine, bar staff were friendly, boat was always kept clean and our guide Marin was the best tour guide I’ve had across multiple other similar trips, a true legend. All round a great experience.
- Liam, 25/09/2024 20:14, Travelled Solo
Sail Croatia is such an incredible experience - sail takes all the planning and organisation out of the mix and allows you to just make amazing friends and memories on the boat while exploring the stunning Croatian Coast. Our crew: Elena, Big Daddy, Irena, Charlie and George were AMAZING and made the experience so much fun. The meals (and the boat’s cocktail jugs) were so good - 10/10 would recommend to any fellow travellers!!!
- Sarah, 25/09/2024 15:18, Travelled Solo
I did the Navigator Cruise and had the time of my life. Seeing Croatia while staying on the water was such an awesome experience and such a unique way to travel. The crew on my boat were by far the highlight and I can’t thank our manager Toni and our waiter Nikola enough for making the experience as amazing as it was.
- Chelsey, 24/09/2024 01:22, Travelled Solo
Saša was the best guide for our group! He made a massive effort to get to know everyone on board and made sure everyone felt included. His energy and sense of humour was thoroughly enjoyed by the entire group, I couldn’t imagine doing Sail Croatia with anyone else!
- Caleb, 23/09/2024 23:18, Travelled Solo
Dino was an excellent sail leader. He provided great recommendations and helped make navigation super east. I’ve been able to return to Dubrovnik solo with no issues getting there. He made the trip very fun and carefree.
