I had never been on a cruise of any type before. I am now very spoiled! The crew was excellent, so attentive to all our needs. Our guide, Vicko was the best! always willing to answer any questions, give great recommendations and keep us all informed on everything. I also need to mention the Chef, and his assistant. I cannot say enough about the meals that were served, I do not eat fish and I was accommodated every-time fish was served. Thank you again to Sail Croatia for a trip of a lifetime!

Great time on the Esperanza for 7 days. Swim stops were relaxing and Capitan Jure always found a calm place to anchor the vessel. The Esperanza was comfortable with lots of places to sit and read, outside or in. Food was delicious and generous servings. Capitan’s Party on the second to last night was just great! Everyone up and dancing, and Capitan Jure and waiters agreed when one of us asked them to dance! We had lots of time to explore the places where we stopped as we sailed short distances each day. Dinner was on our own in the towns The tour director was Dino, and if I could give him 10 stars I would. Absolutely excellent at his job: He always had the answer to our many questions. He was relaxed and made us feel that whatever we needed we would have when it came to the excursions and how things worked on the boat. Dino was fun, kind, and entirely competent. He got along with all passengers and crew. Highest marks. Thank you

We had a fabulous experience on the Romantic Star. Our Tour Director, Klara, made our trip wonderful. She organized wine tastings on every island. This was a magical way to experience the local culture and their food. We drank wine in bunkers left over from the Yugoslav military and quaint villages that produce everything from wine to meats and cheeses. The food on the ship was inventive and delicious. All of the servers and staff on the boat were friendly attentive. I was also impressed with our stateroom and the space it provided. Our particular tour was a lively bunch from all parts of the world. We thoroughly enjoyed not only what the ship and tours at each stop had to offer, but the company was a welcome surprise! We highly recommend a sail with Sail Croatia. It was an awesome way to experience the best of Croatia!!

It was quite marvellous. The Kraljica Jelena is a beautiful boat: Old world charm and modern conveniences. Split to Dubrovnik was the perfect end to a month long trip.

We were two friends travelling together on the Queen Jelena. Recently refurbished boat with character and spotlessly clean. Our cabin was reasonably spacious. Crew were very polite, food was good and the islands we visited were great. We always stopped at beautiful spots for our daily swim. Water gorgeous and refreshing.

It’s an amazing week, so relax and enjoyable. Loving the swim spots daily nothing better than that. Nikos is very helpful and responsive guide. The crew members are friendly and lovely. Really glad I have chose the Salve Di Mare, unique character on itself and met a whole group of people who very much able to enjoy and create the whole amazing week.

If you want to explore islands tip to tip weaving through little villages, get small history lessons, get some great exercise (get a real bike, not an ebike), get chauffeured around on a boat and fed wonderfully- this trip is for you. All of the thinking is done for you and you get to REALLY. See croatia.

We had a great bike and sail trip on the Aphrodite in May 2026 with a great crew and guides. Food was ok and efforts to meet my GF issues was taken care of very well. Lots of history shared by guides and a few extra bike rides in afternoons was appreciated and interesting too. E-bikes were very good to ride and thankful we had them on some big uphill climbs. Would recommend to any bike enthusiasts

- Corinne, 25/05/2026 18:36, Travelled with Friend/s

Overall a wonderful experience. The hides were superb, rides were great and scenery unbelievable. A couple of drawbacks - there is a schedule to rides so not as many opportunities to stop and see things or swim etc along the way as I hoped. And did get a little sea sick at times. Also would have preferred a buffet so you could serve yourself the amount of food you could eat. 3 course lunches were sometimes a lot.

From the moment my friend and I got on board the Tempera, we were greeted by such a friendly team. Marin (our representative) was amazing! Super friendly, knowledgeable, funny & willing to go above and beyond to give everyone on board the best experience. The crew behind the bar were also 10/10. Couldn’t recommend Sail Croatia enough.

I had a week on the Salve De Marie cruise ship. From the moment I stepped on the boat I knew it was going to be amazing. The boat was beautiful, It was very clean and all the staff went out of their way to ensure the trip I had with my nine friends was absolutely brilliant. Sasha the tour guide and Mate our walking/trek guide were fantastic! The food was out of this world and the ten members of crew were a great team. I would definitely do this again. Loved the kayak, paddle boarding and swim stops every day. Definitely a holiday to remember! Thank you!

- Sue, 25/05/2026 14:15, Travelled with Friend/s

I travelled on board Sail Croatia with my friend and we had the best time ever. It was so easy, with everything organised for us by our tour representative, ensuring that we didn’t have to lift a finger the whole week. Beautiful locations every day and plenty of fun activities to give you a taste of each place. Everyone on board was so welcoming and thorough in their care for all guests. Couldn’t recommend this experience enough!!

Wake up, eat a simple breakfast, cycle through the most amazing ports, towns, vineyards, stop for a coffee with sweat pouring down our faces, cycle some more, get back to the boat, eat a delicious hearty homestyle lunch, cruise an hour or two to the next location, freetime in the new town to explore and grab dinner, sleep, and repeat! It was the perfect vacation for us, two good friends with kids and a busy household at home - exercise, food, and a top notch itinerary. The lower cabins are stuffy and hot (windows dont open, ventilation is weak) and some of the ports are very noisy (docked next to the party boats) so our sleeps were often poor. Everything else was well beyond our expectations. I'm not sure why more people in their 40-50s don't do this trip! They have set a very high bar!

- Sam, 25/05/2026 07:14, Travelled with Friend/s

Well organized, efficient, flexible, very helpful and friendly crew.. We had a great cook.. We did most of the hikes in the afternoon. I personally prefer to hike in the morning but when walking in the shade afternoons were ok. It was May so I did not try the AC. My only disappointment was the HOT TUB was not hot and almost as cold as the ocean in May. There was a TV but it did not work.. WIFI was excellent.

- Elaine, 25/05/2026 03:49, Travelled Solo

This trip was stress free and fun from the moment we stepped off the plane where transportation awaited us. Captain Christian “Kiko” and Hostess Matea were professional, really fun, spot on with recommendations, and just made the trip so wonderful. Croatia was breathtakingly beautiful, historic, friendly, safe. The islands each had their own vibes and amazing wines. Highly recommend Dubrovnik to Split route. And Capt Kiko and Matea are top notch.

Our Sail Croatia trip on the gorgeous Queen Jelena was one of the best travel experiences we’ve ever had. From the moment we stepped onboard, everything was organized, relaxed, and incredibly fun. The crew was outstanding — friendly, professional, and always making sure everyone was having a great time. The cabins were comfortable, the boat was clean, and the food exceeded expectations. The scenery along the Croatian coast was absolutely unreal. Every stop felt like a postcard, with crystal-clear water, beautiful old towns, hidden beaches, and hiking and biking trails. We loved the mix of activities too — swimming stops during the day, exploring islands like Hvar and Korčula, and then great nightlife and dinners both on and off the ship. If you’re considering Sail Croatia, do it. It’s the perfect combination of adventure, relaxation, social fun, and breathtaking scenery. We already want to book another trip.

So enjoyed our time cruising around the Adriatic on the Esperanza. The captain and crew were top notch. Special thanks to Dino for arranging many of our adventures. Should also note that the lunches and the Captain's Dinner were superb!

This was a holiday shared with friends old and new. From the moment of arrival at the Quay to every day on board, excursions and final departure, everything was seamlessly managed. The captain and his boat staff were super friendly and always willing to go the extra mile to ensure every request was addressed. The food was excellent, fresh local produce which was beautifully presented and delicious. Amazing from a small kitchen with 2 very dedicated individuals , the chef and his support. The cabins were cleaned thoroughly everyday and the 2 bar staff , Pamela and Luce were brilliant with a good sense of humor. Our Sail Croatia rep Vicko was just fantastic with a great deal of history and local knowledge. He managed to keep us informed, learning about Croatia and laughing the whole trip. His relaxed informal style meant everyone enjoyed chatting with Vicko. The whole trip exceeded expectations.

While the ship (Esperanza) was a bit tired, the crew was amazing. Our tour manager, Dino, was the best. He was so attentive to the guests and responsive to our needs. He had to make several itinerary adjustments due to weather, but still had special events scheduled in most locations. Mio & Ivo were also a great servers and bartenders and tge chef, Vladim was excellent. I’d be back next year if we had the same crew on an updated ship.

My trip with Sail Croatia on the Almissa was truly the trip of a lifetime. The crew on Almissa - Mava, Kafka, and Ceazer are the best and became instant new friends. Mava is the cool local friend with the best, honest recommendations that truly elevated my experience in Croatia. Kafka and Ceazer behind the bar are the life of the party and kept our spirits high throughout the day and night! The food was delicious and the rooms were clean and spacious. I would 100% recommend to any friend that the best way to see Croatia is by boat on the Almissa.

Was truly a trip of a lifetime! It was a very special way to celebrate a friend’s 60th birthday. Everything was above expectations from the ship, Queen Jelena, to the captain and cabin crew, with special thanks to Pamela and Lucy, who we kept quite busy provided excellent service and always with a smile! The food was excellent, especially the daily 3 course lunches that could rival any top restaurant! Our sailors, “ the Joseph’s” kept us safe on swim stops and our comings and goings on the boat. Our “cruise director” Sail Croatia rep.,Vicko, was wonderful. His daily briefings on the day’s destination and activities were always entertaining and informative. He messaged us reminders, directions, restaurant suggestions, and meet up stops. He’s very personable and made the day to day so easy! I highly recommend Sail Croatia, you will not be disappointed!

Our trip could not have been better! The Princess Diana is a beautiful boat perfectly set up for navigating port to port and biking. Our cabin was comfortable with all the amenities needed though most of our time was spent in the salon, on deck, or biking. We cannot say enough about our tour guides Ivica and Ana. Safety of the riders was always top of mind. Ivica knows the islands intimately and he planned rides with stops for great photos, a swim and coffee or ice cream. Ana’s knowledge of the islands’ history is impressive and her clever antidotes and “myths” entertained us. Chef is a master and the food delicious. Tea and Danny were engaging and professional and took time to explain each dish. Especially memorable was the Captain’s Dinner! The Captain and crew were amazing, getting us to port on time and in a favorable location. We enjoyed watching the docking maneuvers…great team work! The ideal weather and our new biking friends made the entire week perfect.

Our 7-day sailing trip through Croatia on the Almissa was honestly one of the best travel experiences I’ve ever had. From the moment we stepped onboard, the entire crew made us feel welcome, relaxed, and completely taken care of. Our host Mava was an absolute gem! He made every single guest feel welcome and included. Whether you wanted to join the group activities or explore on your own, he made sure everyone had the perfect experience. The itinerary itself was fantastic, with a great mix of excursions, activities, and free time. You could spend the day adventuring with the group or simply wander through the beautiful towns at your own pace. It was the perfect balance of structure and flexibility. The food onboard was outstanding. Everything was fresh, delicious, and beautifully prepared. The bartenders Cezar and Kafka also deserve a special mention because they were truly the life of the party and kept the energy fun and upbeat the entire trip. 10/10 amazing experience!!!

The crew aboard the Salve di Mare looked after us from start to finish with great attentivness and humour. The boat was beautiful and spacious and I loved watching the skillful captain bringing us in and out of port. Wonderful food- (how do they do that in such a small kitchen)?! And of course, the spectaclar scenery of Croatia- crystal clear waters, majestic mountains and the idyllic port villages and towns. And finally a special mention for our hiking guide, Mate and our customer care and everything else, Sasha. Both were excellent at their job and looked after us very well and with great humour, which I loved. A wonderful experience and great memories made.

We loved that you could find your own evening meal on shore and that you could join in the hiking or relax on board with a book. No pressure. Thank you to all for such a great relaxing and enjoyable trip.

Croatia's coastline is simply beautiful and the cities of Dubrovnik and Split were well worth the visit. The smaller islands were interesting and pretty if missing cultural interest, but thanks to our wine-themed cruise, there was always something to see/do. The crew and especially our guide Lola were cheerful, helpful and fun (my husband and I were traveling with a solo friend, so with 3 at our table, we were able to share a lot of meals with Lola). We've done a number of cruises in the past, from 120 passengers up to about 2000, and unfortunately I'm prone to seasickness, so on that front the trip was not great - I definitely appreciated our captain's decision to skip one island due to rough seas! The smaller size ship also meant that our cabin was much smaller than what we've experienced before and there was really nowhere other than the dining area for people to gather together when it was raining which was unfortunate. Overall, it was a lovely experience!
