Best week ever!

I had the best week of my entire life while on Sail Croatia. Tim was amazing and I could not have asked for a better guide. The staff was also so amazing and helpful throughout the entire week.

Unforgettable, amazing week!

We had an incredible time on the new boat Marvel! It was spacious and had everything we could possibly need to enjoy our week on the sea. The flotilla week was a perfect balance of swim stops, relaxation, exploring island towns and gearing up for a night out. All of the skippers, Mario, Matea and Nevis were fabulous - we loved our skippers meal & connecting with new people/skippers. Mario even had me driving the flotilla throughout the week which was pretty awesome to learn & an experience I’ll truly never forget! It was very sad to leave!

Phenomenal experience!

The boat was well provisioned, comfortable, and clean. The crew was helpful, nice, and efficient. The bikes were great. The ports were peaceful, beautiful and inviting.

Great way to see Croatia with friends & daughter

I would highly recommend seeing Croatia sailing with Sail Croatia. From the fantastic service, delicious food, friendly/helpful/knowledgeable staff (Lola, Iris, & all the others)& Captian of the Almissa- Josef. Don't think twice... just do it!

Absolutely fabulous!

1. Sanja and Dora were Fantastic! They made an amazing team. They were both very engaged with we clients, very animated, very thoughtful and knowledgeable. They both clearly love their job and enjoy working with each other,, which adds to the experience. 2. The captain and crew of the Emanuel - also Fantastic. They were very attentive to our needs. They were also very engaging and enjoyable to talk with. 3. This was a total luck of the draw, but the other passengers we traveled with really made the whole trip amazingly enjoyable. Everyone enjoyed everyone else and there was no drama! Overall a wonderful trip which we will repeat!!

Amazing Experience

I went on this trip not knowing what to expect. It ended up being such a fabulous experience! Our lovely rep, Francesca went above and beyond to facilitate group dinners, activities, and options to explore each town we stopped in. The crew took us to lovely swimming spots daily and were friendly and welcoming. Mateo, our bartender, had great energy. He was so helpful and kind. Together they made a great team who exceeded my expectations.

Would 100% recommend this experience to my friends

We loved our time on the navigator cruise, it might be our favourite part of our trip so far! We made life long friends and memories. Our host Johnny ( Ivca?) was amazing at keeping us informed and ensuring we were having a good time.

Fabulous Crew.

The Crew on Eos were professional & fulfilled their roles with friendliness & care. In addition the cycling crew had safety in mind all the time whilst also recognising & catering for different abilities. Jošco was very knowledgeable & informative with local history, nature & the geography of the islands which made our holiday so much more interesting.during the daily cycles. We appreciated the stops for coffee & a swim during the rides. Lovre dealt with a life threatening medical emergency with maturity & calmness whilst also resolving a random conflict with a stranger. Jošco dealt with the logistics of the medical incident with professionalism & care to those involved. Two outstanding employees. I was surprised the cycling crew were not given the cycling ability information we had all submitted - this would have helped them have knowledge prior to our arrival.

Novi Dan

I would like to commend the amazing crew aboard the Novi Dan! To Captain Vlado for sailing us safely through the Adriatic Sea, Toni for ensuring the boat was clean and taking us out for water sports, Lovre for the amazing food throughout the trip, Marko and Adriano for their great service ensuring we always had what we wanted! And to Elena for making sure we got the best out of everything! She was really good helping us get to where we needed to go, recommendations in town and good company! They were an extraordinary team who worked tirelessly day and night to ensure our time on Sail Croatia was an unforgettable experience!

The kind of holiday that dreams are made of.

Perfect weather! Beautiful boat with excellent staff, nothing was too much trouble.. Excellent food, various diets catered for, and a good range of drinks! But best of all was where we were … from Dubrovnik to Split we anchored in islands of such beauty and grace, so much history and interest and terrific cycle riding with excellent guides - I honestly didn’t want to leave.. Without a doubt I will be returning, with Sail Croatia!!!

Trip of a lifetime!

This was a 5 star holiday from start to finish. We had the perfect balance of exercise and free time to relax. The boat and cabins were spacious and comfortable. Lucy & Harris served us the most delicious breakfast & 3 course lunches every day. Our lead guide Josko was amazing! He gave us a daily briefing on the route and was highly organised. I felt so safe while biking on the roads, nothing was left to chance. Josko had so much local knowledge and gave us a taste of Croatian history. We learned about this beautiful country while cycling through some of the most panoramic views I've ever seen. One thing I will say was that any request my group had was accomadated immediately. I fell in love with Croatia and it's people. We are already planning our next trip. I highly recommend Sail Croatia, just do it!!! Nessa Darcy

Unforgettable Experience

I cannot fault this trip! Elena the tour manager was amazing- she was organised, enthusiastic and so personable. She went above and beyond for everything, gave great recommendations and was just a beautiful human being. The Novi Dan crew was also amazing- thank you Captain Vlado for taking us to unreal swimming spots and thanks to Chef Lovre and the rest of the crew (Toni, Marko and Adriano) for the delicious food, service and hilarious conversations. I would highly recommend the canyoning excursion if you have a chance and don’t mind a workout- it was a once in a lifetime experience. Overall, I had an unforgettable week, with beautiful people in beautiful places. Only complaint is that I’m so sad that it’s ended- thanks so much Sail Croatia ❤️❤️

The best week of my life

We had a great experience on the Split - Dubrovnik sail. Our sail rep Tim was amazing, very welcoming and well organised. He was able to give us all the information about the places we visited and the recommendations for many different things, and advocate for us when needed. The whole crew was amazing, from food and drinks to general friendliness, we are definitely going to miss them all. We had a great group of people on board and Tim was able to keep all 24 of us in line, would definitely do this trip again.

Marija magdalena

A diverse group was bought together by our Reps ability to cater for everyone and ensure we were all involved early on to build connections that continued throughout the trip. Tim’s planning and recommendations were a huge success when leaving the boat. He was able to organise a group of drunk individuals to make it to venues partnered with sail Croatia for ripper drink/entry deals

Sail Croatia - Marina Magdalena

TIMMY - he was the absolute goat and made our boat so much fun and was always there to support anyone!

Navigator June ‘25

We had the most amazing time. The crew was great, Johnny, our trip manager, was awesome and made it an unforgettable trip we will never forget!

Brilliant group cycling&sailing holiday!

We were a large group of 8 couples- our ship Eos was a perfect size to cater for us and other guests. Very comfortable cabins and large social spaces. The food was very good and the staff very attentive. We booked the cycling trip - the bikes were a good quality and we loved exploring the various islands on our bikes each day - all very well led by our excellent tour manager Joške. Highly recommend!

- Genevieve , 13/06/2025 07:34, Travelled with Friend/s

Croatian islands are gorgeous

My husband andI traveled with another couple. We had a wonderful week. It was our first cruise and I was apprehensive. For me, the small number of people was essential. We were lucky that the other travelers were all kind and fun. And our leader, Anita, was terrific. Always eager to help, fun to talk with and very knowledgaable about so many aspects of being in Croatia.

Go with Sail Croatia Cycle trip

This cycling cruise was the BEST ever. I loved the quaintness of the smaller cruiseship & the crew was wonderful. Our cycle guides Luciya & Ivan P were personable, knowledgeable about Croatia & its history, super fun and safety was always a priority. Our passenger group really bonded from the beginning & I now have new friends around the world I can go visit & keep in touch with. Go For It & take a Sail Croatia Cruise

- Denise, 12/06/2025 22:49, Travelled with Friend/s

Best week everrrrr

Had the best week ever on Penelopa, made friends for life and life long memories! Ceili was great and the crew were so accommodating and went above and beyond every day, especially Alex, Charlie, and Ivan! Couldn’t recommend this week more!!!

- Nicola, 12/06/2025 18:04, Travelled Solo

It was excellent

The staff on the ship were so great and patient with a group of "old" ladies. The food was fabulous! Because I wake up so early, the chef always offered to get me some tea even if it was 2 hours before the kitchen opening. Our guides, Miranda and Anna were exceptional. On the 2nd day, I realized I wasn't going to be able to climb the hills and Miranda offered to give me her ebike. That isn't something that happens very often.

- Cheryl, 12/06/2025 16:55, Travelled with Friend/s

Big Blue is the best

The crew on the Big Blue was particularly great, with attention to detail when it came to both cleaning and serving. The meals were delicious and they were always kind and accommodating if you were a little late on meal times. The boat was always spotless and felt very safe and clean. They were fun to interact with and made sure we had a fun time always. Thanks guys!

- Tory, 12/06/2025 08:19, Travelled with Friend/s

BEST WEEK EVER!!

Had the best week ever, sailing Croatia. Stopped at beautiful locations, met lifelong friends and made everlasting memories!! Ceili was the best rep throughout the week making the experience even better. The crew were wonderful & super accomodating. I will most definitely be recommending Sail Croatia to everyone I know!!

- Ella, 11/06/2025 20:30, Travelled Solo

Another magic trip

The staff, crew, tour leaders and guests on this boat were a fantastic bunch. Loved every minute. Had an issue with my room. Not what I was expecting for the price and supplement but that wasn’t going to spoil my trip. Boat was great, bar area very social. George n Danilo were great and George’s food was very good. Danny on the bar was the best barman very efficient and fun. Ivancic and Mario were a superb team, we have cycled with Ivancic before. He will never let you down he’s a very focussed customer driven guide. Very trustworthy. We’d like to return but we have visited most of the islands on your itinerary’s… any chance you could mix it up abit? Thanks again. Great holiday x

Trip of a lifetime

Marin and the crew were absolutely exceptional and made the whole week so easy and one to remember. Everything flowed so well. Absolute 5 stars. Would recommend to anyone!

- Georgia, 11/06/2025 15:02, Travelled with Friend/s

Wow

This was our first time visiting Croatia and first time on a small ship cruise. Both exceeded our expectations and we are already planning for a return trip. The Explorer cruise was a perfect, stress free way to explore the stunning islands of Croatia. Our tour guide, Vicko, was great. Always a smile on his face and incredibly knowledgeable of all things “Croatian”. He was always available and assisted us with extras like cabs and dinner reservations . We loved his daily destination talks and his take on which excursions would give our group the best experiences. We traveled with another couple and our Explorer cruise was a great combination of travelers from many countries whom we were able to get to know over the course of the week. I also want to give a shout out to the Salve di Mare crew who ensured we had a fabulous experience each and every day.

- Kim, 11/06/2025 14:45, Travelled with Friend/s

Fantastic!

Had a blast this week and couldn't fault anything. Incredible service from the crew and delicious food from the chef. Marin was so helpful and made sure we all had the best time!

- Molly, 11/06/2025 12:53, Travelled Solo

Great Time

Had an absolutely amazing time on this trip. Marin and the crew were absolutely fantastic with everything, always looks to make the cruise memorable and fun. The places we visited were so beautiful and the swimming spots were amazing. Food and excursions were also worth it. Great trip.

- India, 11/06/2025 12:39, Travelled Solo

The best trip!!

This was the best tour i’ve been on, Marin was the best tour guide could not fault him at all! our crew was amazing and made the entire trip so fun, would absolutely recommend to anyone!!

- Brianna , 11/06/2025 12:31, Travelled with Friend/s

What a week! Don’t hesitate, just book it.

From the moment Sail Croatia began, Marin and Augustin greeted us with a smile and warm smile that made me feel very welcome as a solo traveller. Little did I know, this was just the beginning of one of the most incredible weeks of my life!! My other passengers were nothing short of some of the best, funniest and kindest people I have ever met. Quickly we all became best friends. Leo, Chef Marin, Toppa and Captain all made the experience absolutely amazing with their expertise and skill in everything they did. The week ran so smoothly thanks to the crew, and I cannot believe how quickly it all went. Pretty much we woke up, ate, swam, party, repeat! The week was an absolute dream and I am so grateful for the experience ❤️ Don’t hesitate, just book it. Absolutely worth the money!!

Queen Jelena - Split to Dubrovnik

My entire experience was wonderful, from the meticulously maintained ship, to the cooks who accommodated my dietary requests, to the excursions we did on land. A special shout out to our Tour Manager, Iolana, who did a fabulous job organizing, communicating, and overseeing everything we needed. Thank you, Sail Croatia for a fabulous week!!

Very well appointed yacht .. beautiful to sail in .. best yacht on the water.

- Carolyn, 11/06/2025 11:59, Travelled with Friend/s

An incredible week filled with memories!

I had the best time on sail Croatia filled with new friendships and fun! The crew on board worked above and beyond to deliver the best service and ensure we all could have the best experience! Our rep, Marin had a lot of respect for each of us and provided support whenever needed. He was very experienced and informative when discussing the upcoming plans/ excursions at lunch, giving recommendations and personal opinion, and he became a good friend to us all. Credits to the chef- the food was delicious and catered for vegetarian (we were well fed!) and our bartender Leo, who made sure we were having fun and knew how to party in the evenings! Of course, we couldn’t have done it without our captain and skipper getting us to all of the beautiful islands and taking us to amazing swim stop places! Overall, the crew helped make my week the best it could be and I couldn’t have asked for a better team!

Best Way to Enjoy Croatia!

We sailed through the Tuna boat, and had a great time enjoying the beautiful land & seascapes of Croatia, from Split to Dubrovnik and back to Split! Our tour manager, Marin, was very fun and accommodating to every guest. He gave us a lot of tips where to go and made sure we had a great week on board. Will definitely recommend this to anyone who wants to have a memorable Croatian summer experience.

Navigator cruise ensuite

Had a great time on the Navigator as a solo traveler. Shoutout to Johnny for making the week go as smooth as possible!

- Grace, 11/06/2025 09:05, Travelled Solo

Perfect way to see Croatia

Such an amazing group of people with a great environment fostered by our rep, Marin. The destinations were always so amazing and Marin gave perfect recommendations to have the best time. I felt safe the entire time which allowed everyone to have more fun. I would recommend this experience to everyone

- Sarah , 11/06/2025 07:38, Travelled Solo

Such a great week

Marin and the whole team gave us such a good experience on board for the whole week I couldn’t fault anything. He was so welcoming and supportive not to mention professional and working around the clock to ensure we all had everything we needed. Marin and everyone went above and beyond for us and that really made the difference

- Georgia , 11/06/2025 07:00, Travelled with Friend/s

The whole crew was amazing!

I had an amazing experience! Marin made sure everyone was having a great time and constantly checked in to make sure we were all okay. Marin was super friendly, attentive, and really went out of his way to guide us to the best spots. His energy and local knowledge made the whole experience even better. Tin tin also was also super friendly, caring & amazing the whole time! The chef deserves a huge shoutout, the meals were absolutely delicious. Leo the bartender was the best, he kept the vibes high, made sure everyone was having fun, and was super efficient. I will miss the crew massively.

Beautiful tour

This tour is a great blend of cruising and riding. The guides, Miranda and Ana, were attentive to a fault, doing their best to keep everyone happy., as were the ship's crew. Guides and crew themselves seemed delighted to be there! The ship, the Mali Ante, was beautiful, clean, and well-run. The riding was well-planned, taking us along relatively easy routes in the countryside, and giving us a taste of many towns and villages, The meals were sumptuous and lovingly prepared. Someone considering this tour should know: - the rides are short, on average, so if they want more focus on cycling, this may not be the tour for them - the saddles for the e-bikes are hard and flat, so it might be an idea to bring a gel cover for comfort - the crew does smoke, and the smoke seems to come into some of the rooms at times, through the ventilation system. - the meals were very meat-heavy Altogether, with these caveats, this was a beautiful tour, thoroughly enjoyed by all.

- Anne, 11/06/2025 05:59, Travelled with Friend/s

What a trip!

We cruised from Dubrovnik to Split in early June and loved the experience. Vedran, Yuri, Evo, Almira and the rest of the crew made the trip so special. The ship was impeccable, the breakfast and lunches were wonderful, the swim stops were chilly but fun and the excursions were worth it. Vedran’s daily briefings were informative but also had us all laughing. Wonderful group of travelers on our boat. Met the best people. Was already getting crowded as this is a popular area. I would strongly recommend Sail Croatia especially the Olimp!

please read...

When everyone asks me if I would do it again, the answer is always "100% YES!" I am even considering dates for next year to bring my mom along on an Explorer cruise! Sail Croatia has been doing this for so long, everything is planned and mapped out perfectly. The entire time I felt safe, and excited about what adventure was coming next! I travelled as a 30 year old solo traveler, and it was just the perfect trip for me to do. This one the trip of a lifetime, and was made even more special by our boat manager and guide, Marin. One of the first things he said to me was how his favorite part of the job was connecting with the guests on board and making lifetime friendships. He was always looking out for each and every guest, which can be hard when managing 30 or so people and their requests! Marin even had the one vital thing I didn't bring with me - a hairdryer. To say is he prepared and ready to help in any way he can is an understatement! Don't regret not doing this trip!

Island hopping at its best

After travelling solo for several weeks this was a great way for me to explore the islands without having to organise anything myself. I had a great group of 20 fellow travellers, enjoyed lovely bays to swim off the boat and interesting hikes (at times challenging due to the heat) . The food served on board was excellent, and all of the crew were friendly, helpful and very professional. I really enjoyed my time on board the 'Mali Luka' and can understand why several people on my cruise had previously sailed with Sail Croatia.

- Kim, 10/06/2025 18:36, Travelled Solo

Wonderful Experience with Sail Croatia on Private Yacht

The crew of Ante Mocic and Fani (our hostess) made our tour exceptional. Ante is an excellent skipper always making us feel safe and cared for. He listened to our desires and went above and beyond to secure the best mooring spots and provide us with great recommendations for touring the islands. Fani is an outstanding hostess. Her meals were heavenly and her personality bright and bubbly. She was accommodating to dietary restrictions and extremely service oriented. The cuisine provided on this trip went above and beyond our expectations. The Croation islands are gorgeous and the villages are charming and laden with history. This trip was perfect in every way! Thank you Sail Croatia!

Fantastic Trip!!

If you like sailing and biking this trip is for you. I enjoyed every moment. Accommodations, service, food, organization and such a beautiful country. I just loved Croatia. Sail Croatia does a great job.

- Ellen, 09/06/2025 18:52, Travelled with Friend/s

Amazing!

I can’t say enough how much we loved our SailCroatia adventure! The guides were amazing and made the rides so enjoyable and the boat staff were so kind and thoughtful. Would recommend to anyone and would book again!

- Diana, 09/06/2025 16:39, Travelled with Friend/s

A great way to see the islands, but a few service issues

We enjoyed each destination, the swim stops and the variety of experiences. Our chief stew was amazing for coordinating activities, both free and paid, but we didn't do many excursions as they are pricey for the value, We still found plenty of fun things to do in each port! The accomodations and food fell short of our expectations though - there were three people on the boat with dietary restrictions or vegetarian, and we were only given extra services of the veggies/starch with no protein substitute. I often left hungry as we were unable to eat a lot for what was provided. The serving staff were also not accommodating, often dismissive or talking over our attempts to sort out alternatives for food. We also ran out of toilet paper a few times, and the showers didn't drain. Overall the itinerary made the trip worth while, but would hope to see a better effort to accommodate guests who don't eat meat.

Best tour!

Tour manager Johnny made the sail so fun and cared so much about everyone! He brought all the vibes!!!

Simply the Best

I recently did a Croatia sail aboard Kapetan Jure, and it was honestly one of the best experiences of my life. Our tour leader, Johnny, was incredible — such a down to earth guy with a great sense of humour and loads of local knowledge. His recommendations made every stop special and his easygoing nature really set the tone for the whole trip. The deck crew were absolute legends — friendly, helpful, and always up for a chat. A special shout-out to Papi, our captain, who was so warm and welcoming and made us all feel right at home on his boat. One of the biggest highlights was meeting such a great bunch of people and creating memories I’ll never forget. Riding bikes through the stunning Mljet National Park and going zip-lining were also major standouts. If you’re considering a Croatia sail, I genuinely couldn’t recommend it more.
