Sail Croatia made our week of cycling and sailing the Croatian islands amazing. The staff were great and our fellow travellers were all very easy to travel with fun to get to know . They were organized and the food was terrific. I was worried I wasn’t fit enough but I did well on the bikes.

My entire family loved cruising from one beautiful Croatian island to the next and touring around each stop on e-bikes. We got to see much more of each island than if we had hiked or just stayed overnight in each port town/city. The crew & guides are lovely people: professional, friendly & kind. Matilda & Sardan are also skilled bike riders who were patient & accommodated all the varied skill levels. They were knowledgable about each stop, offering wonderful suggestions for dining & site-seeing while on our own to explore. We met wonderful new friends and enjoyed traveling with every single person on our boat. This trip was absolutely AMAZING from start to finish - I can't recommend it enough! My family and I are still stunned at the many incredible views we biked to and the fun of having an active vacation and meeting great people while enjoying wonderful food and wine and exploring so much of beautiful Croatia. We are SO glad we went on this unforgettable adventure!

Brilliant trip in Croatia with Cruise and great cycling on the island hills and coast and awesome swim stops in crystal clear waters. The guides Ivan and Lucija were top rate with great cycling guidance and history and information on where we were. and we’re really friendly. The food was so tasty from chef Ivana (top class), and Andre was always on form and looking after us with our post ride refreshments. Christiana kept the boat management smooth and friendly, and Captain, and Sailors Randy and Ivan were super helpful. Thanks all for one of our great trips, and to all our new pals we shared it with. Tim and Paula.

The staff on board the Afrodita made our holiday so special. Lucija and Evan our guides were fantastic! They went above and beyond to make our all our time fun and enjoyable! They were professional and yet authentically friendly. We were so lucky. The crew, magnificent! Andre was a doll and helpful and attentive and our chef ….like Wow! All crew was friendly kind and worked hard to make us comfortable and safe. I loved the itinerary and our daily cycle time and challenges. I wish i had an upper cabin but it wasn’t available as i booked later than others. The e bikes were great. Thank you to all

We had a fabulous trip made special by being on the superb immaculate Katarina with an excellent crew. Our host from Sail Croatia was Kara who was outstanding at her job and made everyday a fun and enjoyable experience!
- Nicola, 11/06/2025 10:15, Travelled with Family
Our representative Ivicia, he was the best and made the whole experience amazing. You felt safe with him, he was very well organised and informative about the activities and local insights. He fit in as a part of the guests and very comfortable and fun to be around, highly recommend him, he deserves a promotion, best guide on all the sail Croatia cruisers we seen and met. Thanks for everything ‘Johnny’!

We had a fantastic time on Sail Croatia, Queen Jelena. The ship itself was spacious and comfortable with plenty of outdoor seating. Our cruise guide Ioana was very dedicated to ensuring all the passengers had an amazing time. The food was delicious and plentiful. We loved the swim stops and the Captains Dinner was a great night. We only had 25 passengers on our cruise and our cabin below deck was comfortable and enough space for our 7 night journey.
- Cathryn, 11/06/2025 07:35, Travelled in a Couple
The whole e-bike sailing trip was a hit from the moment we arrived. The welcome from the crew, to the bar & kitchen crew and most importantly our guides for our ride each day. The food was exceptional and beautifully presented! Our guides were so helpful and their communication about our rides each day were clear and conscientious of making sure everyone understood were we would stop for a break or photo opportunity. Safety was key! It was a treat to have some challenging times on the bikes as we got to see some incredible views and scenery.. If you enjoy a bit of fitness with history and fun, I highly recommend this trip! So great full to all the staff and we also had amazing weather and our group was the best!
- Loretta, 11/06/2025 06:02, Travelled in a Couple
I was worried to try a cruise as i get car sick but it was awesome! There was no problem as we were slow and smooth sailing! So happy for the Elegance Cruise. We loved every day! The rooms were so clean and comfortable, meals were excellent and we had a fabulous tour Manager Klara and an awesome bunch of passengers to travel with, we came as strangers and left as friends! Croatia was so beautiful and we loved every stop! Weather was perfect! Captains dinner was great with live singers/guitar players! Highly recommend!! We swam everyday and enjoyed our trip so much!
- Angela, 11/06/2025 05:39, Travelled in a Couple
Five stars to all the crew and guides in our tour. The friendliness and efficiency to make sure we were all taken care of in every need was amazing! The food on the boat was lovely. Learned a new favorite beer( Radler). First time e-bike and I was very glad. All help rendered as needed , from giving daily overview of day to end if day path. Captains dinner was amazing! I loved this format of sailing and biking as we saw sights that you would never see in a traditional bus tour. Thanks to all who made this possible!
- Judy, 10/06/2025 08:43, Travelled in a Couple
Our week spent on Sail Croatia - Almissa boat - was a wonderful experience. The boat itself was very adequate with plenty of room in the cabin, lounge areas dining areas. Our tour guide Anita was so lovely and friendly and had all the fabulous activities so well planned and organised and provided so many options outside the organised tours. Nothing was ever a problem for her. We were able to visit the blue cave only because of the boats captain and Anita knowing the weather patterns and logistics to reach that area. The cave was one of the the highlights of the tour for me. Good aboard was great and overall we couldn’t ask for more, May 2025
- Catharina, 10/06/2025 08:34, Travelled in a Couple
The itinerary, the crew/staff, and comfort of the bedrooms/bath were top-notch. We truly enjoyed the daily swim stops (whether we swam or not), each gorgeous island, and the ship's facilities. Our tour manager, Klara, took very good care of us, with excellent recommendations at each stop.
- Carrie, 09/06/2025 17:31, Travelled with Family
We had a wonderful week on the Princeza Diana with our guides Calum and Josip. As guides, their styles were very different, but the combination complimented our group nicely. This vacation was the best way for us to enjoy all Croatia has to offer…. So much beautiful scenery, flowers, and history. Cruising along on our e-bikes was a sensory over-load in the best possible way. The worse thing about the week was that it had to end.
- Elaine, 09/06/2025 17:08, Travelled in a Couple
The people. The crew and the guides.
- Terese , 09/06/2025 14:25, Travelled in a Couple
We had a great experience with Sail Croatia and would absolutely recommend to our friends and family! Ivana, our tour manager, was so helpful during our cruise! She offered great advice, answered all our questions and gave a great overview each day of what we could expect. I really appreciated all of the communication throughout our cruise week. The crew on the Tempera was great as well! Our lunches on board were fantastic as well. We were definitely well fed by the chefs.
- Lindsey, 09/06/2025 13:20, Travelled in a Couple
Sail Croatia was hands down one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life. From the moment I stepped onto the boat, I felt welcomed, safe, and genuinely cared for. The staff were absolutely incredible- so loving, kind, and attentive. They went above and beyond to make sure everyone was comfortable, happy, and well taken care of. You could tell they really cared about our experience, and that made all the difference. The boat itself was immaculate. Everything was kept so neat and tidy throughout the entire week, and it truly felt like a floating home. But what made the trip even more special were the people. I met some of the most amazing souls – people who started as strangers and became true friends, and even family. There's a unique bond that forms when you’re sailing, sharing meals, and cycling long miles. I can’t recommend Sail Croatia enough. Thank you, Sail Croatia, for the memories, the friendships, and the magic. I’ll treasure this forever!
- Savannah, 09/06/2025 12:37, Travelled with Family
We loved our week onboard the Mali Ante with the welcoming crew! It was a good balance of riding and relaxing! Everything was great - the food was delicious, the bike rides were awesome and the facilities on the boat were clean snd comfortable . Thank you !
- Amanda, 09/06/2025 11:14, Travelled in a Couple
The Guides were incredible! They were very knowledgeable and friendly. We really appreciated having a pannier to store all our things so we didn’t have to use a backpack. The staff on the boat were accommodating, the food was delicious and the scenery was spectacular!!!
- Darlene, 09/06/2025 11:01, Travelled in a Couple
Die Crew war super und die täglichen Schwimmstops einfach wundervoll. Die kleinen Hafenstädte so wunderschön. Eine wirklich wunderbare Erfahrung. Es lohnt sich! Die Kabinen waren groß genug und auch eine Dusche und Toilette haben nicht gefehlt. Wann immer man Fragen hatte oder etwas brauchte konnte man sich an die Crew wenden. Es gibt viele Angebote, die man wahrnehmen kann, wenn man angelegt hat, man ist nixht verpflichtet. Alles kann, nichts muss. :) Die Natur und Schönheit des Wassers sind wirklich einzigartig. Ich hätte gerne noch eine Woche dran gehangen ... ;) Danke an Ceasar, Kristina, Barbara, Josep und seine Crew und die Mitfahrer für diese Erfahrung!!!
- Maren, 09/06/2025 07:52, Travelled in a Couple
Our bike leaders Matilda and Srjon were amazing. The group of people ( smaller group). We became like a family on board. Keno was so pleasant serving, a real gentleman. The kitchen cooks so cheerful and accommodating. The captain of course got us safely to all our stops and then of course Mr muscles, the deck hand, hoisted all those bikes up and down. Always pleasant. Great crew. Bonnie
- Bonnie, 09/06/2025 07:06, Travelled in a Couple
Ivana our Tour Manager / Guide gave us very informative information about each port prior to our stopover . It was always honest and helpful. She was accommodating for any extra assistance and was delightful to have as our host . The chefs provided amazing food every day, 3 courses for lunch and dinner ( Captains dinner evening 4!) Staff on board were there ready to help with a happy and polite demeanour. I would definitely recommend Sail Croatia to my family and friends for a memorable experience of some beautiful islands to explore and experience.🇭🇷❣️
- Janet , 09/06/2025 06:31, Travelled in a Couple
It was my first time visiting Croatia and first time on this type of cruise. Both were incredible - the small Explorer cruise was a great way to explore the islands of Croatia. The sea and landscape in Croatia are stunning. Our tour guide, Vicko, was knowledgeable and friendly. I appreciated how honest he was about which excursions would give us the best experience, he never pushed us to book something unless he really thought we would enjoy it. (And all of his recommendations were spot on.) We traveled as a family with a broad age range, and the Explorer cruise was fun for everyone. If you can, I'd recommend spending a few days before or after the cruise visiting the cities, since we spent almost all of the time on the islands.
- Juliana, 08/06/2025 13:44, Travelled with Family
Comfortable cabin below deck! Quiet, comfortable bed and bigger than expected! Amazing friendly staff and captain. We had 20 guests which made it easy to get to know everyone. Andro was our bike leader and did a great job keeping us all together. Matilda was so good at helping with information on dining and site seeing on each island! The trip was well organized and so much fun. The only suggestion is everyone should rent bikes as we ended up waiting for hybrids too often! Bike riders can turn assist down or off if they want more workout...or have 2 group leaders. The food on board was plentiful and very good. I will recommend to anyone wanting to bike the beautiful islands!@
- Coleen , 07/06/2025 16:21, Travelled in a Couple
We loved moving to a new island each day. The hikes were enjoyable. The guides were knowledgable and fun. The food was great.
- Monica, 07/06/2025 06:41, Travelled in a Couple
We did so much research on the company, vessel and cruise as we had never done one of these before and honestly we had the trip of a lifetime. Salve di Mare was such a great boat and the explorer cruise had a really great mix of people and good split of relaxing/activities. Honestly what made our trip the most special were the other people we met on the cruise and the incredible staff (shout out to Vicko)
- Laura, 06/06/2025 05:50, Travelled in a Couple
More comfortable seating and a shaded area on the top deck More time in port - the water is cold in early May so swimming isn’t a good activity. If the ship can’t dock earlier, the option of getting a water taxi or tender to port should be an option. Excursions were over-priced
- Anonymous, 06/06/2025 03:42, Travelled with Family
The cruise was incredible. I felt at home the second I got on the boat. The staff was so friendly and everyone on our boat was as well. The boat was incredibly clean and luxurious. I loved how we had time in the morning to relax and then the afternoon to do excursions and explore. It was the perfect balance. Our guide Vicko was amazing! He had so much information to share and was always honest with his recommendations about what he thought were the best things to do at each stop. We all got along so well and I feel we made lifelong friends! I would 100% do another Sail Croatia tour again!
- Anonymous, 05/06/2025 19:27, Travelled with Family
We chose Sail Croatia Explorer Cruise on the Salve De Mare as our summer family vacation with our 20 and 24 year old children. It was the perfect mixture of relaxation, sight seeing, adventure, and exploring. Our travel rep, Vicko, was awesome. He was always leading the way with great advice and direction. The crew of the Salve de Mare went above and beyond to accommodate and ensure everyone had a good time. The food and drinks on board were diverse and delicious. This was an intimate cruise with only 33 passengers and 9 crew. We truly came as strangers and left as friends. I would highly recommend Sail Croatia and Salve de Mare. Thanks for an awesome vacation!
- Debbie, 05/06/2025 19:19, Travelled with Family
We had a great time on and off the boat. We traveled as a couple with a set of friends. The hikes were good and guided very well by Illona and Martin. The only thing I would recommend to change is the fixed lunch as we could have enjoyed a few longer hikes without having to rush back for lunch on the boat. It was especially the case with the hike from Makarska after an hours bus drive to the national park. That day we also had the captains dinner on the boat so we could have had lunch on the mountain in the national park. All in all we had a wonderful holiday!
- Elke, 05/06/2025 15:35, Travelled in a Couple
From my first inquiry to the completion of our sailing trip all the staff were extremely professional, knowledgeable and helpful. A very special thank you to our skipper Mislav and hostess Dora. They were both wonderful. Very accommodating, friendly, knowledgeable and great to travel with. It made for a unique holiday and lifetime memories. Thank you to all the staff at Sail Croatia.
- Margaret, 04/06/2025 21:00, Travelled with Family
My husband and I had a fantastic time on our 7-day cruise! Absolutely would recommend. Vicko was our Sail Croatia Rep and he was THE BEST - super friendly with great recommendations for excursions, restaurants, and a ton of knowledge about Croatia. This truly felt like a vacation because we didn’t have to worry about anything. We were on the Salve di Mare boat and the crew on the boat was top notch. Marko, Vlaho, and Monika in particular were so personable and friendly. They made our stay on the boat comfortable and fun. Also worth noting that I always felt safe on the boat (even when we had windy conditions our captain, Frane, docked the boat with ease).
- Kyra , 04/06/2025 14:51, Travelled in a Couple
With 3 20-something-year-old kids beginning to go in different directions, we were looking to explore Croatia together and solidify a vacation full of lifelong family memories together. I stumbled upon Sail Croatia as we looked for ways to see the coastal cities and islands. Boy, were we glad we did! An extra bonus was the ability to combine a bit of adventure and activity through a biking cruise. I can't say enough positive things about our experience on Mali Luka and the wonderful crew and captain. Our leaders Mila and Mario, were full of knowledge, experience, hospitality, attention to detail, thoughtfulness, kindness and a passion for the beauty and history of their country. The entire experience was top-notch. The meals and service on board were exceptional and delivered with a smile - always. We loved getting to know so many people from across the world with peace and trust and hospitality. We will forever cherish our memories and new friends from our Sail Croatia experience!
- Lori, 04/06/2025 14:13, Travelled with Family
My husband and I had the best time on our trip. We sailed on the Morpheus sailboat and thought the boat itself was perfect and so nice. We used the water toys such as the paddle boards daily and had the best skipper - Kiko. He took us to all the best islands and understood what we were looking for out of our trip! Could not recommend our boat or skipper enough. It was the best trip ever and we were sad to leave at the end.
- Maggie, 04/06/2025 13:05, Travelled in a Couple
The trip was easy to book, with lots of helpful tips and instructions on how to find to the ship in Split harbour. The itinerary was just perfect, island hopping everyday and stopping for swimming while spending a relaxing morning sailing and sunbathing on deck. Our tour host, Dino, made our trip truly memorable as well as the other guests we spent our week with. Dino was amazing, such a delightful guy. Our group is still messaging each other on the WhatsApp chat that Dino set up. We were informed each day of what to expect, what we could see, what time we were setting off, where to eat, drink, best places for anything that any guest was looking for. The holiday was a delightful balance of being well looked after whilst freedom to see/do as much as we wanted. Remember to bring more long-sleeved clothing if travelling in May as evenings are cool. Lunch was a tasty 3-course cooked meal which I would have preferred as a buffet selection personally. Definitely recommend the trip!
- Tamara, 04/06/2025 10:47, Travelled with Family

Dino our cruise manager was exceptional! He was friendly, knowledgeable,,patient, helpful and good humoured for the entire week. We were a small group that could have made things difficult but he expertly drew the group together and was fundamental in ensuring the weeks success. The boat was beautiful and well kept, the Captain and his crew made us feel well cared for and the meals prepared on board were delicious!! All in all a really excellent time!! We will certainly recommend.

The Split return to Split itinerary was excellent and allowed us to see many islands and mainland cities.. Dino, the cruise manager communicated clearly, was organized, helpful, enthusiastic and upbeat. He was always available knowledgeable and entertaining.We couldn’t ask for a better manager! Dino guided us to incredible experiences such as the Hora Farm dinner, and also to restaurants and sites in each place we stopped. The crew on the Romantic Star was helpful and professional. The ship was clean and the accommodations were good. I would recommend Sail Croatia to anyone traveling to Croatia.

Dino. He was subperb. Awesome attitude and enthusiastic. The sights and activities were also wonderful. Food, bedding/linens, and demeanor of serving staff crew members would have very much improved the experience. Dino is a gem and deserves every accolade and reward. Well beyond expectations!
- Sonya , 03/06/2025 17:53, Travelled in a Couple
Our group’s ages were mixed, 40s to 80s, 3 generations and 3 nationalities. Cruisers were similar in being interested in where they were and also relaxing. All enjoyed a drink. Group size was good, enabling interactions with a range of people. People met up in wine bars and restaurants to share stories and compare their travels. It made for fun times. Our guide, Klara was great. She gave clear presentations & shared information electronically on the highlights of our next island and what to see and do there. She always answered questions clearly and provided links eg on laundries. Boat spaces were good, most people enjoying the sundeck daily. Swim stops were well organised with easy water access . Range of activities offered was broad. I loved all the islands. They differed in histories, attractions, opportunities and atmosphere.. Staff were friendly and efficient. Food was great, Enjoyed the Captain’s dinner, would have liked to hear him speak more about our lovely boat.

From the moment we were greeted by Elena and Tim it felt like stepping into a dream. Sail Croatia is breathtaking on its own, but this experience took it to a whole new level — it was otherworldly. Every detail was curated to perfection, blending rich history, jaw-dropping natural beauty, and warm, authentic hospitality. But what truly set this apart was the people behind the experience. Elena and Tims passionate, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in making every moment unforgettable was exceptional. If you're looking for something truly extraordinary, magical, and soul-stirring, this is it. Sail Croatia stole our hearts, and this journey made it unforgettable. We’ll be talking about it for the rest of our lives.Thank you for a trip that was nothing short of celestial. 💫🇭🇷
- Morgan-Lee, 03/06/2025 10:45, Travelled in a Couple
Where do I start?? From the meticulously clean boat to the abundance of tasty healthy food to the awesome staff who couldn't do enough & went out of their way to help to our tour guide Nicos! And we haven't even mentioned the beautiful Croatian islands that we stopped at all bursting with centuries of history & hidden restaurants & wine bars. If it hadn't been for Nicos we would never have found some of these gorgeous places. A special mention goes out to crew member Max who apart from serving our meals & keeping us well hydrated, he so kept us entertained. I was not sure about going on a cruise with 30 total strangers but it was one of the best weeks & one I will not easily forget.
- Julie , 03/06/2025 07:50, Travelled in a Couple
From booking to check out, Sail Croatia ran a well organized operation. On arrival at the boat our bags were loaded onboard and we were greeted by the captain. Our guides for the bike rides, Mila and Mario, were excellent. They explained the trails and provided history and information on the places we visited. We were pleasantly surprised by the food at all meals, it was delicious and fresh. Thank you chef! The crew took care of us at all meals and in between (thank you Halim and Donche). Would recommend Sail Croatia

Took this trip with my family as a last hurrah before my sister gets married. It was everything and more I could have hoped for! I truly believe it was the best way to see Croatia. We did the cycling cruise and visited so many incredible places on the islands we wouldn’t have been able to see otherwise. Our boat was always clean, the meals were FANTASTIC, but what really made it was the crew and our cycling guides. Haleem, one of our crew members, catered to every need and was always around to chat with us or teach us a new card game. Our cycling guides, Mila and Mario, were so knowledgeable and made sure to always provide us with the most out of every opportunity. Would do this trip again in a heartbeat!
- Kailee, 03/06/2025 01:25, Travelled with Family
Just back from a fantastic week aboard Dionis. Our guide, Ivica was so knowledgeable and being Croatian, he had so much local knowledge.. The routes were a great mix and being the Split southern route, some aspects (on a push bike rather than e bike) were challenging but that’s what I wanted! Ivica always checked in with everyone to make sure we were all enjoying it. I spent most of my time at the back of the group, where our guide Calum kept me motivated and made the hills less of an issue by playing some cracking tunes! We had lots to chat about and plenty of laughs! Our group (8) quickly bonded and we enjoyed meals out as well as cocktails at Massimo cocktail bar in Korcula. The crew on board Dionis were all excellent and looked after us so well. There was so much food! The best way to spend a week - waking up in new ports and exploring on 2 wheels is so much fun. Croatia is beautiful. Enjoyed the swim stops (although the sea is cold in May). 100% recommend this.
- Suzanne, 02/06/2025 16:09, Travelled in a Couple
Boat was comfortable, staff were professional, efficient and friendly. The food was good. Ivan and Ioana were friendly, professional and fun. Ivan was really excellent when two unforeseen issues occurred, managing these with professionalism and empathy. The others in the tour group were great. Itinerary was adjusted as needed. Highly recommended!

What a fantastic week in Croatia, cycling with a wonderful group of people. Our leads - Ivica and Calum were brilliant so knowledgeable always making sure everyone was ok, very helpful for dinner bookings they would organise this for us. I cannot fault anything it was just simply amazing. I would highly recommend it. The cycling helped us go to places we wouldn’t normally visit. We got information about each place we cycled to and the dinner stop at Gazul on day 2 cycle was truly spectacular. The group chat each day and morning briefing was so useful explaining the ride ahead, The ship Dionis was so nice and the crew were so friendly, the food served was divine. I am just so pleased we booked this. It’s a big 5 star review from me. Cath Burrus
