Our guides were Josko & Ana, what a team! We had a couple of windy days & one wet day. The communication was quick & kept us updated with options for our bike trips. The banter was fun & their knowledge of history/ old stories kept us intrigued. They were very giving with their time & expertise, & we felt they went above & beyond to make sure we had plenty of information to plan & enjoy our onshore time. The boat crew were great, always available & worked hard to make sure everything ran smoothly. The meals… no one went hungry with our chef! If you’re on the fence about this tour, you will not be disappointed!

We were blessed to have a wonderful and friendly crew and 2 guides Ilona and Ivica who kept us safe and informed whilst having great fun on the bikes! A group of like minded people on the boat just added to the experience! What a great opportunity to explore such picturesque places combined with biking, swimming and a little walking and sometimes dancing in the evening (you needed to exercise off the amazing meals prepared by our skilful chef). A fun week which ended a little to soon! Thanks to crew and fellow travellers for an amazing experience!

We had been before, the trip was as good as before but the food was so much better. The boat was better too and we had upstairs cabins that we liked better.

We did the sail and cycle in September and it was great. The crew were great, our guides were hands down amazing, the food on board was terrific. We used hybrid classic bikes and it was hard work on some of the hills, so just be warned if you are considering classic bikes. The terrain was much different than we expected. We felt very accomplished by the end of our adventure.

Variety of bike routes and onboard food that reflected the culture of Croatia

Our tour guides were Ana and Marin. Our guides were awesome – they knew so much of the history of Croatia and shared it freely. The food on the boat was OK. The breakfast buffet was really good; lunch was hit and miss but mostly good. Some people found the lunches not quite enough food if you are a big eater. Drink prices on the boat were really reasonable. Would ask that you recommend the e-bike option for everyone as there was a lot of waiting for the manual bikes as some of the hills on the islands are no joke. A water bottle holder would be nice on the bikes. Would recommend the cycling jersey be included in the package. It would be great advertising for you. To charge $70 for a cycling jersey after you have spent over $2000 USD seemed excessive. Loved that our captain Martin was very safety conscious even if it meant we didn’t always get a swim stop as the seas were too rough. Our bike guide Marin also was very safety conscious which was great to ensure we completed

Just returned from our fantastic cycle cruise with Sail Croatia with husband. It was glorious and just what I had envisioned: fun cycling with e-bikes through lovely scenery along the coast and on inland roads (only a few intrepid souls conquered the prolonged and steep hills and switchbacks on regular bikes); sunny and warm days; great food and beverages; comfortable accommodations on the boat; swimming in lovely clear or aquamarine water; and warm interactions with our fellow cyclists and amazing staff. I am particularly grateful to Sanja and Miranda for the care they showed us as my husband’s cycling experience was limited. Sanja’s daily storytime about history and culture, and Miranda’s care when my bike had a mechanical problem were truly appreciated. I also loved their attention to detail during our daily briefings. Finally, with Miranda leading and Sanja sweeping, it was liberating to be able to stop to take photos without holding the group up. Truly a fantastic vacation!

Andre and Ilona went above and beyond all expectations for quality of service , dedication and punctuality. Their passion was shared with everyone on the tour. They should be offered extended and improved contracts immediately................or you are not doing your job!
- Don, 09/09/2025 13:56, Travelled in a Couple
The tour guides, the islands, the water, the food! I could go on and on! Just perfect!
- Jill, 09/09/2025 08:21, Travelled in a Couple
Visiting the small island coves and gorgeous harbors from the comfort of our boat was the experience of a lifetime. We loved the biking and the swimming. Our group became fast friends and we loved our guides. The food was healthy and delicious . Hats off to Miranda and Sanya for leading us to one beautiful place after another and for sharing all of your local knowledge. You were always cheerful and patient. We loved our trip! .
- Gretchen, 09/09/2025 08:05, Travelled in a Couple
Most wonderful time on this gorgeous boat! The food was so healthy and delicious. The boat staff was so attentive especially Ljbisha! Miranda and Sonia were the best guides - not only on the bike "roads" but about the beautiful country of Croatia. Both very good communicators with a serving attitude. We'd sail with you again! The E-bikes were wonderful too. Thanks for a most memorable vacation. Patty & Matt Edling
- Patty, 08/09/2025 23:57, Travelled in a Couple
We loved our experience biking daily and enjoying the town sight later. The entire crew was great, food was excellent. Andre and Andro were awesome guides and going above and beyond to have a safe biking experience but also to see amazing towns! Would definitely recommend!
- Erin, 07/09/2025 14:26, Travelled in a Couple
We recently had the best week of our 6 week trip from Australia with Sail Croatia. Miranda and llona were so lovely, personable and fun. The tour catered to every level of ability and the e-bikes were excellent quality. I would do this again in a heartbeat- A great way to see beautiful Croatia. Oh and the food George and the lovely crew created and served was something to look forward to each day.
- Kerryn , 06/09/2025 07:30, Travelled in a Couple
Great diversity of cycle routes and port stops. Guides were great! Boat crew also great. Meals lovely but would have preferred dinners rather than lunch as I wanted a swim, shower and nap after my cycle rather than having to sit for two hours in a stuffy fining room in the middle of the day. The bed was so hard that I longed for morning to come.
- Mab, 30/08/2025 06:53, Travelled in a Couple
We had such a great time on board. The food was amazing, thanks George the girls in the bar clearing up were friendly Johanna and Andrea. Our guides were fun and clear about what was going on. Thanks Miranda and Ilona. We would recommend this to anyone who enjoys riding.. I think website should be clearer that breakfast is a full buffet breakfast! Also that our riding is usually done in the morning with a late lunch.

Andrej and Sanja were perfection in their tour leading. They were informative, funny, kind, humble, and extremely respectful to all the levels of riders. PERFECTION. The food was DELICIOUS. From breakfast to a huge lunch which was exceptional. Cheers to the kitchen staff for all their hard work! Can’t say enough about the tour and crew - they made the trip that much better!!!
- Jennifer and Jeremy, 18/08/2025 07:59, Travelled in a Couple
I loved all the rides...and the electric bikes were wonderful. We had excellent guides: Guide Ana gave us some great history information for of all the places we toured. Guide Andre kept the pace going and prepared us very well for each phase of the bike ride. The food was ok but needs to be updated. The salad lunch buffet was the best meal served. Guest wants light food--not soups when the temperature is hot outside or creme cake desserts at the end of every meal. . Food was tasty but the chef needs to cook for 2025--NOT back in the 1980! Otherwise--excellent trip and I will highly recommend the trip to all my friends. I would go on another but at a different location.
- Joy , 10/07/2025 15:08, Travelled in a Couple
Just returned from a cycling cruise with Sail Croatia and it exceeded every expectation. The experience was seamless, adventurous, and full of heart. Huge shoutout to our incredible guides, Tonka and Sanja — a true dream team. Tonka’s biking expertise and Sanja’s rich regional knowledge elevated every moment. Their chemistry, energy, and care made the journey unforgettable. The onboard crew was just as fantastic — thoughtful, attentive, and always ahead of our needs. They found incredible swim spots and created a welcoming, relaxed vibe from day one. The group dynamic was a joy thanks to Tonka and Sanja’s humor and warmth — we bonded fast and felt like family. And the food? Outstanding. Fresh, flavorful, and crafted with care. This trip struck the perfect balance of challenge, culture, and comfort. I can’t recommend it enough — especially if you’re lucky enough to have Tonka and Sanja as your guides.

This trip aboard the Mali Luka was amazing. We are big time cruisers and usually sail with big ships like Princess. We've done one Viking cruise but this one was so amazing. There were only 28 total passengers and we all got along great; it's like they hand picked people that all had the same outlook and personality. The rides each day were to the most beautiful areas I've ever been to. The e bikes made even the steep uphill climbs easy. We were given options on some of the days to stop or to continue our rides (some even choose to not go on some at all). Our ride crew Miranda and Matilda were so great; always looking out for us and keeping us safe with perfect pacing. Sitting on the top deck while we cruised along was my favorite part. We choose the bottom deck cabin which was super small and tight. No complaints by anyone on any level about noise from other ships. The crew worked very hard (not super friendly but friendly enough). Captains dinner was nice; very nice guy.

Ivan and Lucy were phenomenal guides. They took us to beautiful out of the way places. They took time to research ahead of time the most authentic Croatian experiences. We got to meet local people and experience their way of life. All while experiencing incredible scenery on off the beaten track roads. They were encouraging and nurturing. Felt very safe and supported on the bike rides. Lucy was very knowledgeable about the history of Croatia and her stories were very educational. Getting back to the boat was always a treat because Andre knew what we wanted to drink, and the meals were delicious. The ports were small and cozy feeling. Swimming off the boat was spectacular, the water was so clear and brilliant. The other passengers were equally delightful and interesting. We couldn't be more pleased.
- Joanne, 26/06/2025 13:32, Travelled in a Couple
Our guides Dora and Matilda were fabulous! 8 days of fun, laughter, beautiful sights, history stories, and guided experiences. Would give them both 10 stars if I could ✨️
- Michelle, 25/06/2025 13:44, Travelled Solo
The entire crew for our Sail Croatia trip had endless energy and created more than a trip-they built a Sail Croatia Family. The bike rides were tailored to the group. The swim stops along the way were amazing! The entire crew had fun personalities and went out of their way to make sure everyone's needs were met. The meals were magnificent. Best trip ever!
- Kim, 24/06/2025 18:24, Travelled in a Couple

We did the northern trip last year and enjoyed it so much we decided to come back this year. We were not disappointed. We loved the cycling and all the swim stops. We were part of a very nice group. Given information and history about places. The boat was looked after beautifully. All the crew were friendly and helpful. All in all a wonderful experience.

Ivan and Lucija, our tour guides, and Adrian, our salon manager, made our sailing trip one of the most memorable and magical experiences we’ve had. Their knowledge of the history, island life and customer service were high level. We always felt taken care of wherever we were. They always ensured we were given the best experiences possible. We appreciated Ivan’s extra local experiences to the caves, wine tasting, submarine tunnels. Lucija’s history knowledge and help with dining options were great. Adrian always took care of us in the salon. The three made a great team. The rest of the crew were also excellent; courteous and helpful in every way.
- Olwyn , 21/06/2025 06:20, Travelled in a Couple
We just finished a wonderful week of sailing & cycling onboard the Afrodita. The crew were amazing and made our holiday extra special. The ship was lovely and cabins were as expected on a sailing ship — on the cozy side. Our tour/cycling guides, Ivan and Lucija made our trip exceptional. They were extremely thoughtful to ensure we all had a wonderful experience no matter our cycling level. Their morning briefings, their attention to each guest while cycling & their genuine desire to share Croatia with us made everyday outstanding! They were the stars of our trip!! Thank you, Ivan and Lucy!!
- Grace, 20/06/2025 13:54, Travelled in a Couple
Cycling cruise was beyond our expectations! Our guides, lucija and Ivan, were awesome! So knowledgeable and friendly. They geared our rides to what the guests wanted and shared experiences with us that we didn’t expect. They made the trip great! The food was very good. I would recommend this trip to friends! We had such a good time and can’t wait to go back. My husband is telling everyone to take this trip!
- Suzanne, 20/06/2025 11:27, Travelled in a Couple
I was on the Afrodita Sail Croatia 2nd-9th June 2025. The trip was fabulous. Brilliantly stunning scenery every day, rides varied but always such fun. Wonderfully led by the excellent Ivan and Lucija they just made the whole experience so much more fun. Some lovely beach stops along the way and even on occasion some free time to ourselves on the bikes to explore. The food on board was plentiful and so tasty, loads of variety for breakfast and three course fine dining lunches each day, Andre the barman was brilliant too. And plenty of free time to explore each day.
- Veronica , 18/06/2025 17:32, Travelled Solo
A really great holiday - excellent cycling, lovely boat and crew, knowledgeable and helpful guides, interesting places to visit and good company on board. A favourite holiday - we would look to go again.

We had the most amazing time on the June 2, 2025 Split to Dubrovnik sailing adventure. Our guides Lucije and Andre were perfect. Not only were they professional, always stressing safety, but their knowledge and infectious personalities made for a perfect time. I can honestly say that the group of 32 passengers will never have as great an experience as what we had. The ship’s crew were amazing as well. Sailors, chef, manager, captain, and bar manager were all exemplary. Thank you all for giving us such an unforgettable time.

We had the most amazing time. The boat crew were amazing and friendly and very tentative. Halim our waiter did an exceptional job. Our guides Marin and Andro were amazing. Marin and Andro made sure we were safe at all times. Thier attention to our safety was imperative. Marin is so knowledgeable about his country and we learned so much about the history of Croatia and all the islands we visited. He was an excellent guide and we would request him if we do this tour again! The best and most memorable trip we have ever been on. The only critique I have is 2 pillows for the bed would have been nice and more or better wine selections. Thank you Sail Croatia!!
- Michele, 16/06/2025 12:52, Travelled in a Couple
We loved our week away with sail Croatia . It was all we were expecting plus more . The bike riding was amazing with a beautiful itinerary . We took normal bikes and it was quite challenging , If you are going in the warmer months strongly consider a ebike as the hills are hard in the heat . We loved anchoring in quiet blue coves and swimming . The crew and guides were fantastic . Thank you esp to Josip and Tashi our fabulous tour guides . We also loved meeting and traveling with like minded people from all over the world - we really had a lot of fun together . The cabins and ship was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed .

We just got off the Split to Dubrovnik itinerary on the Emanuel with our EXCEPTIONAL CREW, WONDERFUL CAPTAIN Anto, FANTABULOUS GUIDES Dora and Sanya, and enjoyed the experience with a group of wonderful new friends as we cycled our way through beautiful scenery! We travel a lot and the 4 of us felt it was one of our best trips ever! We were also absolutely spoiled with our chef as the food was outstanding! We are HOOKED on cycling holidays now! Highly recommend and give the experience a 5/5 stars!!! Thank you!!! 🥰

Beautiful scenery, clear blue sea, unspoilt islands. Good food on the boat, great cycling (but make sure you upgrade to E Bikes!), A lot of fun and a perfect way to spend a week.
- Mary, 16/06/2025 08:01, Travelled in a Couple
I enjoyed the swim stops. My room was nice, although the last full day the tanks definitely needed to be changed, as I had a room below. It would have been nice to have the names on the back of the bikes. Most people came in groups, We did not come in a group, so, we had to keep asking people their names. The Josic was very professional. I was not sure what Calam's responsibilities. The bar was very expensive for the extremely short wine pour. It was discussed by most passengers on the boat. Lunch was heavy. Maybe better to have dinner? This would allow people to relax a bit after the ride. The last two rides were short. Often I was not quite sure where we were going to stop. It did not follow the brochure. Captain said we needed to stop in different places.

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.

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

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!

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!

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.
