Wine trip / celebrating 60th bday with all friends

We were able to reserve your beautiful Esperanza to include all all of our friends (sold out). Best 7 days! The crew was outstanding. Service, bartenders, chef, captain and the deck hands were truly amazing!

Superb holiday

A fantastic relaxing 7 nights on the Romantic Star, Elegance cruise. A brilliant way to see the Croatian islands. Excellent service on board from our Captain Ivan, all the crew and our Tour Manager, Ioanna, who put 150% into making sure we all had a good time. The food was delicious and from beginning to end we didn’t need to worry about a thing. Every detail had been carefully planned to make the holiday perfect. I’d like to do it again soon and will certain recommend Sail Croatia to my friends and family.

Luxury Hiking Cruise

The overall experience was outstanding! The tour leaders, Anita and Mate, engaged positively with everyone as they introduced us to beautiful Croatia. The crew of the Salve de Mare were professional, friendly, and contributed to the overall wonderful trip.

Amazing trip

This was the best vacation that we have had so far. A great Mix of challenge and relaxation. The crew and guides were amazing. Will definitely come again and let our friends know how great the trip was.

More than I expected

Cruise and Croatia was great. More than I expected. Never bored, the week flew by, plenty of food, little to complain about!

Great Experience

We had a great experience with Sail Croatia on the Explorer Cruise on the Tempera. The crew was amazing and went above and beyond!! Dino was very organized, and his communication and suggestions for local restaurants and highlights were very helpful. Max and Milan were so personable and were always willing to help. Frankie, the captain, was great as well as the cook and kitchen support, who were also great about offering gluten-free options. And the crew, Peter and Thomas, were wonderful as well! Overall, a great experience and memories were made that will last a lifetime :) We would highly recommend this experience.

Cycle tour

The entire cycle tour from Split to Dubrovnik was fantastic. We went to 7 islands. The organization, accommodations, e-bikes and the guides and crew were amazing and competent. The entire week was great. Our cycle guide Ivica was awesome and so organized and friendly. The staff went over and above to make the week great. I would happily go again!

- Susan, 13/05/2025 12:56, Travelled with Friend/s

Fantastic experience

The crew was friendly, competent and informative. Each port was beautiful and had activities to help us see more of the islands. They rerouted us when weather threatened to dampen our plans. Great trip, will do again

Great way to see Croatia

Second time on a Sail Croatia trip and it did not disappoint. The boat was comfortable and the food was very good. Crew helpful and very friendly. The guides, Lola and Ilona, were knowledgeable, friendly and really looked after us well. Hikes were very good, places we visited beautiful and stunning views. Great company on the boat, lots of laughter. A really good week.

Split southbound return

Loved the pace and format of the cruise. Nice blend of excursions and free time. Cruise Director was very knowledgeable and helpful. Food was excellent at all meals. I do recommend having the option of pancakes, crepes and waffles for breakfast at least once a week. Crew did an excellent job of accommodating my food allergy. I definitely recommend this tour.

Amazing trip!

I went with a couple friends (all in our 20s) and had an amazing experience. The bike rides made seeing Croatia so much better than I imagined, the views got better each day and our guides Miranda and Josip were so friendly and helpful. The boat and crew were great and we met so many fun people on board. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting to visit Croatia!

- Evelyn, 12/05/2025 22:47, Travelled with Friend/s

Thank you!

The whole cruise experience was amazing! Dino, Max, Milan and everyone on the crew went out of their way to make sure we all had the best time- from the itinerary, food, service, communication and the swim stops- we loved all of it. It was the best way to see a lot but relax along the way without worrying about anything, Thank you!

Amazing experience - such a wonderful week!

Sail Croatia Elegance Cruise on Olimp - wow! We had high expectations but even they were exceeded! The ship was immaculate, cleaned and polished daily. All the areas were as shown and even better in person. We enjoyed the various spaces on the ship at different times. Our Tour Guide V (Vedran) was so helpful, joyful and always smiling - he made the cruise so much fun and we had lots of laughs together! Captain George (Jure) and all the crew were so sweet, kind and caring - doing a fabulous job of looking after us all. The buffet breakfast had everything you could possibly want on offer. The daily three course lunch (and four course Captain’s Dinner!) were all beautiful in presentation, variety and taste. All ports visited were great. We were lucky to be blessed with perfect weather and also a wonderful group of passengers. We could not want for anything more, thank you!

Smooth sailing

Our friendly crew and guide (Klara) were friendly, fun, and very helpful the entire trip. Our chef spoiled us with fantastic meals. The ship was spotlessly clean the whole time. We loved the swim stops! We enjoyed each island.

An Unforgettable Experience with Sail Croatia – and a Special Shoutout to Klara!

Our trip with Sail Croatia was nothing short of spectacular. From breathtaking scenery to unforgettable swims in crystal-clear waters, the entire journey was filled with adventure, good vibes, and new friendships. A huge part of what made our experience so incredible was Klara, who led our island tours and adventures with infectious energy. Charismatic, charming, and full of local knowledge, Klara brought each destination to life. Her passion for the islands and her ability to engage and energize the group was unmatched – we felt lucky to have her guiding us. That said, a note to future travellers: know what kind of trip you're booking. This style of sailing trip brings together people from all walks of life, and it's important to understand that you're joining a shared space on board. Some passengers seemed surprised by the format, but that's not on the crew – it's about reading the itinerary and knowing what kind of experience you're signing up for.

- Scarlett, 12/05/2025 16:08, Travelled in a Couple

Best trip!

We had the best experience on Sail Croatia Tempera. The ports, the food, the swim stops were all great. Our cruise director Dino was fabulous. He gave us so much information, selected some great restaurants and kept us up to date in the group chat. Max and Milan were the best server and bartender. The crew became our new friends by the end of the week, we hated saying goodbye.

Amazing Week of Wine with Friends on the Esperanza

I organized this trip 14 months ago in Feb 0f 2024 for 37 of my nearest and dearest to travel for a week on The WIne Cruise Esperanza . This exceeded all expectations !! From the boat , the crew , the food the excursions and wine tastings and of course our Cruise Manager Mia was outstanding . I can't say enough about how wonderful everything was every day . It was late April and the beauty was that it was early in the season so the weather was perfect and it was not real crowded wherever we were . All the little islands are different and have their own personality . I can't recommend this enough and think everyone should add Croatia to their list of places to visit

Amazing week

This hike cruise was fabulous! Amazing ship and crew, tasty food and our hiking guides Lola and Ilona were just awesome, the hikes were stunning everyday with optional add on activities if we wanted to do them. The other guests made the cruise so sociable, I have belly laughed a lot! To be honest the whole experience was better than I could have imagined - there’s no doubt I’ll book again! Can’t wait to come back and explore Croatia more! Especially if we can have Lola and Ilona again, they really made the week special!

Fun, Scenic, Great Guides!

The guides were entertaining and fun, the ride itself was doable for anyone with a bit of biking, the food was excellent, and Croatia was stunning at every turn! Our fellow travelers were truly an amazing group — all positive and great fun! I’m trying to talk friends into going. With multiple routes available I might just join them!!

Wine cruise

Our wine cruise wasn't full so maybe we benefitted from some extra attention but the crew were really friendly and helpful. Our lower deck cabin was quiet but bright and although storage was a little limited worked fine for us. Lunch was varied and excellent, although sometimes a three course lunch was a little early in the day. The wine tastings in Stari Grad and Milna were our favourites, and the excursion on Vis was fascinating. Swim stops were fun, although the water was still pretty cold at the end of April/early May. The islands and coastline are spectacular and the cruise was so relaxing and I would definitely consider booking again in the future.

Relaxing Bike & Boat Tour of Croatian Islands

The Sail Croatia itinerary and guides were top notch. There was a fun plan touring our daily destination by bike, with lots of free time. Our guides were so helpful and informative of local culture, history and dining experiences. The boat was clean & luxurious. The onboard meals were fantastic, staff were friendly and accommodating. I highly recommend Sail Croatia, I will be returning for another adventure!

- Anne, 09/05/2025 13:15, Travelled in a Couple

Fantastic

What a wonderful week facilitated by our great guides Mate and Lola. They provided great knowledge of the areas we visited and safely navigated us through our hikes. The crew on the ship were very helpful, friendly and courteous providing excellent service and care.The menu:- outstanding. Thank you

Great time as always

My third time with sail Croatia. Best boat. Best crew. Best guides, and by far the best FOOD. The cook was so much better than the other ships I was on. Big compliments to the chef!!! Well done.

- Karre, 06/05/2025 16:00, Travelled with Family

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

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

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.

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.

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.

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

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

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

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.

Hi Jan, Thank you so much for your kind 5 Star review and for choosing to travel with us on our Elegance cruise! We're absolutely delighted to hear that you had a wonderful experience and that you'd recommend Sail Croatia to others — that means the world to us. We really appreciate your feedback regarding the check-out time.

Exciting way to explore the Dalmatian Islands!

Beautiful boat & great crew!
