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!

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 !

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!!!

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!!!

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

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.🇭🇷❣️

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!@

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!

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

Everything about this trip was incredible. Croatia is a beautiful country and traveling on Sail Croatia gave us the opportunity to see so much of it, including small islands that wouldn't be easy to reach. Our tour manager, Anita, and the crew of the Almissa were all wonderful. Fellow passengers were easy to get along with and you could choose to spend as much or as little time as you wanted with others. Highly recommend!
- Lindy, 02/06/2025 13:52, Travelled in a Couple
The tour hosts (Lola and Tonka) and ship’s crew were fantastic! We were fortunate to be traveling with a great group of people and had a fabulous time. The chef did a great job on the meals and the boat had nice touches such as hairdryers in each room.
- Anne, 02/06/2025 11:30, Travelled with Family
We loved our adventure aboard the Salve di Mare and the time spent with new friends. The other passengers were easy to connect with and lots of fun. The crew worked seamlessly to keep the ship sparkling, anticipated our needs, and made everything look effortless and natural. Together they created a fun and relaxed environment. Tour manager Ioana was enthusiastic and upbeat. She ensured we understood the logistics for upcoming activities and provided alternatives for those who needed to skip a hike. Hike leader Mate shared his knowledge about Croatian culture and Island history. As an experienced local hiking guide with a background in Search and Rescue, we knew we were in good hands as he led us to beautiful vistas and interesting historic locations. Sail Croatia was informed of my food allergies in advance. The chef provided creative alternatives and the waitstaff made sure I received the right items. The entire cruise was top notch due to the exceptional staff!

This was a trip of a lifetime for our family and was beyond our expectations. The Morpheus was an amazing vessel with plenty of room. What really made the trip was the crew. Kristijan, our skipper, was fantastic. He took great care of us and the boat. He provided an exciting itinerary with a great route, along with suggestions of sights to see, Kristijan also arranged amazing meals and excursions, which allowed us to experience a more local side of the islands we visited. He personalized our experience and was a very fun and knowledgeable. Dora, our hostess, was the icing on the cake. She took such great care of us on this trip. Our meals were beyond expectations, often even better than the great meals we ate at restaurants on the islands. She made sure we had plenty of everything we wanted....snacks, cocktails, you name it. Dora also offered many great suggestions that helped enhance the island experiences! Dream boat and dream team.

Our guides Mila and Lola were fabulous and passionate about what they do and Croatia. Well organized and ready with an alternative plan when the weather affected the original plans. Learnt a lot about Croatia. Hikes were really enjoyable. I especially loved Biokovo Nature Park. Great crew on our boat Emanuel which was spotless throughout our week.

What a great itinerary, with a fabulous bunch of people! Everyone was so friendly. Our hikes were a good variety, ranging from flat to vertical (possibly a slight exaggeration, but there were some steep bits!) We hiked along clifftops, over rocks, through woodland, in National Parks with waterfalls galore (and some very noisy frogs!), and through small towns. All different, all gorgeous. Our guides Ivica and Lucija were brilliant, watching out for everyone, giving us lots of snippets of information, and sharing their obvious love for their beautiful country. They gave us some pretty good restaurant recommendations too!

The small cruise experience was wonderful. We went into small ports that large cruise ships could not go and were able to explore many more fabulous destinations. The food on the ship was plentiful and top notch. The hiking tour was a good mixture of easy walks and challenging hikes. Our guides were well informed and a pleasure to spend time with. My only constructive feedback would be to better describe the terrain and required fitness level for some of the hikes because I feel they were too challenging for a few of our companions and it required that the more able hikers were spending their time assisting rather than enjoying the hike. Thank you for a fabulous vacation!!
