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.

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.

Cruise and Croatia was great. More than I expected. Never bored, the week flew by, plenty of food, little to complain about!
- Bobbi, 13/05/2025 13:25, Travelled with Family
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

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.

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
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.

Tour guides Tonka and Anita made this the best tour I’ve ever been on. They truly care about making it the Magical experience it was. My daughter and I had a wonderful time. I recommend this biking tour to anyone. Thank you for the memories!! Susan
- Susan, 05/05/2025 12:57, Travelled with Family
My sister and I spent the week doing to hiking trip. The crew were all fantastic, both of our guides were knowledgeable and fun. The food was amazing. We can’t recommend this enough.
- Sam, 05/05/2025 05:53, Travelled with Family
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.

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!

Great crew, food , service, wine, other guests. Wonderful introduction to this beautiful country. Its history food, wine and people.
- Deborah, 27/10/2024 14:39, Travelled with Family
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
Beautiful sea, great weather, kind and simpatico crew and staff. Kind and professional captain who took on board the requests of his guests and supported them when he could. Cleaver and knowledgable tour guide Anita always helpful, kind and fun. So, thank you it was a wonderful holiday.
- Viv, 23/10/2024 21:58, Travelled with Family
Our Tour Manager, and a professional crew The Group of wonderful people ( now friends) Croatia experience first time. Excellent planned Wine Cruise., very comfortable ship (Jelena) Reducing the rating from 5* to 4* only because the wine tastings fell short of my expectations.
- Catherine, 22/10/2024 10:02, Travelled with Family
The trip was great for my restricted mobility. The railings on all walkways and stairwells made walking around the ship possible. The crew were always available to offer a helping hand or arm. One of the sailors - Mario - was exceptionally thoughtful. He carried my mobility scooter on and off the boat, storing and charging it overnight. He was sensitive to my fears, crossing from boat to boat, offering encouragement and praise, as well as physical help. Wonderful intuitive personal skills!
- Alison, 21/10/2024 05:43, Travelled with Family
The boat was handsome and comfortable. The food was delicious. The crew was responsive and funny and kind. And the islands were a sight to behold.
- Anonymous, 17/10/2024 07:16, Travelled with Family
We had a great time on our private catamaran tour in early October 2024. When I asked family members what their top parts of the trip were, they said "the amazing coves that our captain took us to for private swimming and relaxing," "the fabulous food that our hostess cooked for us every day", and the wine and food we found along the islands. October was a great time to travel around beautiful Croatia without crowds, and while there were some limits in that restaurants or shops were sometimes closed and the weather was less predictable, it ended up being a terrific trip. Every step of the way (including a post-trip excursion) was supported by both the administrative teams and the sailing teams.

Sailed on the Olimp from Split to Dubrovnik and back. It was great to visit some smaller destinations. We were extremely well looked after by all the crew. A special mention has to go to our guide Ioana who brought her energy every day.
- Wendy, 16/10/2024 08:13, Travelled with Family
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
We travelled up the Croatian Coast in Oct. 2024. The trip was simply terrific. The itinerary was first rate, the crew could not do enough to accommodate us, the ship was beautiful, and the food was better than restaurants. Overall we are recommending this type of travel, with Sail Croatia, to all of our friends.

- Georgette, 14/10/2024 19:24, Travelled with Family
The ship was comfortable and quite luxurious. Staff were very helpful and always pleasant The food was excellent. Congratulations to the chefs The cabin was cleaned daily and towels and bedding changed. Well done to the maid The captain changed the route when necessary to enjoy a safe venue and sheltered areas to swim. Being able to use the drop down platform enabled me to enjoy the daily swim stop. I would not have been able to do the swimming without it. Captain and crew did everything to enhance our experience. The travel guide V was amazing. He was very knowledgeable and friendly with a great sense of humour. All in all a very positive and memorable trip. I woul highly recommend this trip to anyone. Thank you Sail Croatia and staff of Olimp.
- Jean, 14/10/2024 10:05, Travelled with Family
We travelled on the Katarina from Split return. It was so much fun and the scenery spectacular. If I had to suggest one thing that is a must I would say you need to book on the Katarina. It is a family run yacht and they honestly treat you like family. It was 5 star from start to finish.
- Sandy, 14/10/2024 09:36, Travelled with Family
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
The crew was fantastic, the people that were guests were amazing, and the planning that went into making it all happen was incredible! We felt that the tour was very thoughtful and it made the most of what the weather and the islands had to offer. We have done the Sail Croatia tour once before seven years previous to this trip. We felt just as good about it and that is why we returned.
- Colette, 08/10/2024 15:55, Travelled with Family
Our plan was to do the E-bike trip but it was full so we decided to jump on the hike trip! We definitely made a good decision!! Mate and Karla did such an amazing job accommodating everyone! They both really love their country and love to share it with everyone!! We were able to go off on our own and rent bikes/mopeds if we chose to change things up a bit! We met so many great people from all over the world! We highly recommend sailing with this group!
- Carol, 08/10/2024 10:02, Travelled with Family
My sister and I had a great trip on the Tempera ship. What more can I say about the amazing crew, the 5 star meals, the swim stops and the experiences that were set up by our hard-working, devoted ship activity director, Ioana. The small ship atmosphere is the way to go. I would highly recommend Sail Croatia.
- Carolyn , 07/10/2024 19:23, Travelled with Family
Really enjoyed the crew! Ioana was absolutely amazing and always replied so quickly. Food was excellent but you need good hot coffee. (This seemed to be the consensus) Room was perfect. Really enjoyed the whole experience, thank you!
- Mary-Ellen, 07/10/2024 19:22, Travelled with Family
We were on the Colombo boat with Bruno and an excellent crew. They were polite, efficient, hard working, friendly and very good at their jobs. Our guides Mate and Karla were fantastic! They were knowledgeable, fun, interesting and dealt with our group exceedingly well. They were motivating and lovely. They really made the trip special. We also had a group of wonderful like minded people taking the tour which made it even more fun. Thank you Sail Croatia for a very memorable holiday. 🤗🙏
- Sue, 07/10/2024 19:18, Travelled with Family
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.

We traveled with family and friends - everyone had a connection to at least one other person and my sister - the organizer - had done a cruise on the Mali Ante the year before, so certainly all of that familiarity contributed, but the trip was just a wonderful combination of exercise, relaxation, wonderful people, perfect weather and idyllic destinations. I don't remember ever being that relaxed and content.
- Debbie, 30/09/2024 18:12, Travelled with Family
What a wonderful week on Tempra Explorer Cruise this week. The crew were extremely helpful and attentive. The chef was masterful in his approach to Croatian cuisine. Lovely presentations and always supremely delicious. Our Sail Croatia host Victor was such a positive influence. He is funny and very knowledgeable. Our cabin was easily large enough for 2 adults and good size bathroom and shower. Loved this cruise!
- Diane, 30/09/2024 16:02, Travelled with Family

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!

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
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!!!

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.
