Great weather, great crew, good that they adapted to suit the weather and the group’s abilities. Everyone had e-bikes, which helped keep the group together, as there is only one lead and one tail guide. We were fortunate that there was a fairly small group, though some bikers were quite inexperienced. Saw some fantastic bays and harbours, and good swims (it was HOT despite being early June). Very enjoyable. Very happy that we had air on. Boat was very well equipped. Only comments are that after long rides, 3 course lunch was very late, a packed lunch might be better option. Also, for experienced bikers, a self guided gps option might be preferable. But still, great group, great guides, 5 stars!

Sail Croatia met my expectations and then some. The staff was amazing, courteous, trustworthy, and fun. Our guides, Ivica and Ante., we’re completely professional and kept all of us safe and informed.. I would come back to this again. Thank you, Sail Croatia.

We had an excellent trip from Split North (cycling cruise, it was well organised. The crew were excellent and the Tour managers Tonka and Lucija were outstanding. The biking was easy and manageble by all (exspecially if on a E bike). Plenty of swimming stops in warm and clear water. There were so many highlights, Split, Krka National park, Zadar and many small islands and delightful villages. I recommend this trip.
- Peter, 12/06/2026 02:56, Travelled in a Couple
We would like to give a big thanks to Sail Croatia and to our 2 guides— Tonka and Lucija who took very good care of us while we were boating and cycling on the Sail Croatia Split Return Northern trip. Their professionalism, mixed with an easygoing, approachable manner, made for a wonderful vacation that had us feeling in good hands cycling through unfamiliar roads. During stops along the routes, we would take in the stunning scenery and be told stories about the Croatian culture and its rich history, which just added to the enjoyment factor. My wife and I have been on a few cycling tours and would rate this as one of the best— thanks to Tonka and Lucija and the crew of the “Mali Ante”.
- Stuart, 09/06/2026 21:55, Travelled in a Couple
Excellent. Exceeded my expectations. Saśa and Josip were awesome hosts and guides. Peter in the boat bar and diner was very friendly. Great team.
- Ken, 08/06/2026 13:43, Travelled in a Couple
Our bike and boat tour was fantastic….we will definitely recommend Sail Croatia to friends. We loved the ship, the crew, our cabin (above deck), and the daily itinerary. We booked the trip with a large group of friends and the other guests on the boat were lovely to travel with as well. Great food, coffee, drinks, islands, sight-seeing and cycling! Only 6 of us on the ship chose non-electric bikes, so the hilly terrain was challenging and rewarding for us….but hard-core riders love that anyway! And the e-bikers had a great time too, with options of course on how much pedal-assist they needed/wanted. Our tour guides Calum and Jasko were superb! Fun, knowledgeable, entertaining and flexible. And the entire crew of the Mali Luka was superb. Bravo!
- Paul, 05/06/2026 10:31, Travelled in a Couple
An outstanding experience from start to finish. The Mali Luka was comfortable and well run, the crew was friendly and attentive, and our guide, Jay, did an excellent job balancing cycling, local history, and fun. The routes were challenging but rewarding, with spectacular scenery, great food, beautiful islands, and plenty of opportunities to swim, relax, and explore. Highly recommended.
- Jeff, 05/06/2026 06:37, Travelled in a Couple
This is a great vacation for people who like to get out and see the islands. The E-bikes make it a breeze. We loved it. Our guides Ivan and Borna were amazing. The took great care to keep it safe and keep it fun. You will love the dinners in the island towns you stay in. Soooo fun. Thanks Sail Croatia team!

Fantastic! Itinerary, facilities, staff & food. All great.
- Colin, 03/06/2026 04:35, Travelled in a Couple
Great! loved the cycling and the tour guides. Our days out on the bikes were absolutely great. Both Marin and Martin did everything they could to make the trip enjoyable. My concerns were with things that were in the Captains control: 1. Why was air conditioning not on every night? not on for both first and last night which is poor. 2. bedding was sub par at best, poor quality and could have used an extra pillow. 3. Food was not great. I feel an al a carte menu would have been better as this was eat what you get which really was not appealing to me for a trip with this price. Our daughter was with us, she eats vegetarian and her food was absolutely terrible. Boris, the chef, needs to do better! 4. on board bar was poorly stocked. We would have used this service if items were available but it was basically just one wine and draft beer.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're delighted to hear that you loved the cycling experience and that Marin and Martin helped make your trip so enjoyable. We will be sure to pass on your kind comments to them, as our guides work incredibly hard to create memorable experiences for our guests. We're sorry to hear that certain aspects of the onboard experience did not fully meet your expectations. We appreciate your comments regarding the air conditioning, cabin comfort, food offerings, vegetarian meals, and onboard bar selection. As the vessel relies on shore power while docked for the air conditioning system to operate, occasional interruptions can occur if the shore power connection is temporarily disconnected. We understand that these elements play an important role in the overall guest experience, and we will ensure your feedback is shared with the vessel operator for review and consideration. In particular, we're sorry to hear that the meals, including the vegetarian options provided for your daughter, did not meet your expectations. We recognise the importance of catering to a variety of dietary preferences and appreciate you bringing this to our attention. Thank you again for your constructive feedback and recommendation. We truly value guest insights as they help us continue to improve our experiences.
Our second trip with Sail Croatia. The boat, the crew and guides were fantastic. Exceeded our expectations.

Great holiday, the staff were excellent and the ship was fantastic. There is room for improvement. More ventilation in the lower cabins, aircon wasn’t effective. The coffee was very bad and there could be more fruit at breakfast and some soap included would be helpful. Also if beach towels are not provided it would be good to know that before we left Australia. Apart from that it was a great part of our trip

Nice biking holiday , great guide , good e bike
- Andre, 27/05/2026 07:17, Travelled in a Couple
This was our second time island hopping and cycling with Sail Croatia. We had a wonderful time. The accomodations was super and we were well looked after by the boat crew and our tour guides Sasa and Ivica. Sasa and Ivica were very friendly and personable, We were comprehensively briefed each morning about the upcoming ride and any social arrangements. The rides were a good mix of easy rides with only a few challenging rides. Well done again. We are thinking of booking our third trip.
- Alan Maurice, 26/05/2026 00:43, Travelled in a Couple

Had an awesome trip - the staff and tour guides were absolutely fantastic , would do it again in a heartbeat !!
- Darryl, 19/05/2026 17:20, Travelled in a Couple
Boat crew were efficient. The two guides were knowledgable and helpful. Overall, the ride was fantastic with very good bikes and very amazing scenery.. HOWEVER, we did book and pay for a cabin with double bed. But instead got a single bed on one side and a bunk bed on the other side of the cabin which was dissapointing.
- Raymond Cooper, 19/05/2026 12:27, Travelled in a Couple
Hi Raymond, thank you for taking the time to review your Cycle cruise with us this season, and for sharing your feedback. We are pleased that you enjoyed the cycling experience, scenery, bikes and found both our crew and guides knowledgable and helpful. It is a shame to read of your disappointment regarding the cabin bedding arrangement. We would like to clarify that bedding configurations are not guaranteed unless specifically requested and confirmed prior to departure. Upon reviewing the booking, we can see that a request for a double bed was not submitted by your travel agent at the time of booking, and therefore this was not something our team had been made aware of in advance. We always aim to accommodate guest preferences wherever possible and appreciate your feedback. Thank you again, it was a pleasure to have you join us!
We joined the crew of the Princezza Diana in beautiful Split, Croatia and over the next 7 days, made our way to Dubrovnik. Our amazing hosts and guides, Tonka and Elena, assisted by the ship's Captain and crew, made our journey memorable in a very positive way. We saw spectacular scenery and did some challenging and fun rides each day. Tonka and Elena made sure everyone was safe and that we learned about what we were seeing. The bicycles provided were high-quality and in great condition. Flyer was the brand of the e-bikes we used. We met some wonderful people from all over the world on our trip, It's a vacation experience I suspect we will do again. A word of caution: Unless you're an avid (perhaps even hardcore) cyclist, plan on renting the e-bikes. The hills you will climb are both long and steep - but beautiful!
- Keir & Kim, 18/05/2026 18:18, Travelled in a Couple
Great crew, great fellow tourers! The itinerary was excellent. The bikes were garbage. You should not offer a tour where cycling is a feature and then provide bikes that were selected on cost only. Our tour leader spent far too much time trying to keep the bikes operational.
- Anonymous, 18/05/2026 13:32, Travelled in a Couple
This was one of the best travel experiences of our lives. The boat was beautiful, the others travellers were great, the biking and scenery was spectacular and the guides and crew made every effort to make sure everything was excellent. Ivica was an excellent tour guide and made sure that we were all together and had exciting, enjoyable and safe bike rides. Ana made sure that no one was left behind and provided excellent information on the places we visited along with a few myths, legends and ghost stories😀. Ana and Dan (sp) were excellent bartenders and servers and made sure we stayed hydrated and were well fed. The food was excellent and we were served some traditional croatian food that was better than we had in restaurants on shore after our trip. My compliments to the chef!! We would definitely recommend this trip. Once you have tried a small boat experience you will not want to go back to the big cruise lines
- Keith, 18/05/2026 07:46, Travelled in a Couple
We were not 100 percent confident that we would be fit enough or enjoy the experience but we absolutely enjoyed the trip. The tour guides, 2 of them, treated us like family and protected on the roads. The boat, Emanuel, with their captain and crew were a well tuned group. The food on board was excellent! The ebike made the fitness level almost irrelevant, as we watched our 72 year old female group mate keep up with the front guide.
- Anonymous, 18/05/2026 03:45, Travelled in a Couple
Had a great trip…the guide staff were experienced and knowledgeable…always ready to help, lead, inform, suggest alternatives and more. The boat’s crew including the captain, the sailors, the cook and the other staff provided a smooth boating experience and wonderful meals. The bikes were well maintained and easy to use. Convinced us it’ll soon be time to buy an “e” bike at home.” We have no reservations in recommending Sail Croatia!
- Tony, 12/05/2026 07:58, Travelled in a Couple
So the Boat is absolutely beautiful and the meals were outstanding…. All of the Crew went above and beyond… so accommodating… especially Tea and Danny….our cycling guides were awesome… especially Tonka who was so knowledgeable, funny and always had a plan b as needed…. Also big shout out to our Captian who could park that boat on a dime
- Andrea, 12/05/2026 00:39, Travelled in a Couple
We had wonderful time cruising from Island to Island on the Mali Luka and enjoyed the cycling excursions led by Ivica and Sasha. The food, accommodations and staff on board were first rate, and I would highly recommend the trip to anyone who enjoys a great adventure. Thank you again to the captain and crew for a great week!
- Gordon, 11/05/2026 21:13, Travelled in a Couple
Although the entire experience was outstanding I do have a couple of points: 1.) As an experienced cyclist, I had no issues but I did see some areas of saftey that could be improved. There was confusion throughout the day as directions were, at times, incomplete and vague. 2.) Food was another issue as items at breakfast would run out and the main course lunches were mediocre. 3.) Coffee is always an issue for me and yours was the worst. (Sorry) 4.) I didn't understand why we couldn't pay our bar tab with a credit card. Many were short on cash and had to rush to an ATM. 5.) Whatsapp feature was great, would of been nice to get the days briefing in advance of actual briefing at 8:30 so we could follow along and have questions prepared. All in all our tour guides were friendly and well informed about the areas we visited and I would recommend this tour to friends The boat was immaculate and comfortable. Great way to see Croatia for the first time.

The location, accommodation, the Sail Croatia team and the organisation was all really good. My only comment would be the servicing of our cabin. I had to ask for toilet paper on two occasions and it would of been good to have new bedding half way through the week.
- Mark, 11/05/2026 08:46, Travelled in a Couple

- Scott, 11/05/2026 08:11, Travelled in a Couple
Thank you for a wonderful week sailing around the beautiful Croatian islands. This was our second time after three years, and it was even better than before, thanks to a great crew and our guides, especially Ana. We would highly recommend this trip to anyone.

Josko and Andro were amazing guides for our week of cycling. They went above and beyond prior to rides, during the rides and then again to make recommendations on things to do and what to eat.
- Doug, 04/05/2026 12:41, Travelled in a Couple
Better quality ship. Emmanuel was old but clean and very middle of the road for overall amenities, a boat not a yacht; lunches were very good, breakfasts mediocre Cycling guides and routes were very good but too short ( advertise this as a leisurely cycling if e bikes being used) and the regular bycyles should not be allowed as we were constantly waiting for them to catch up. Also entrance fees to parks and historical sites should be included in the overall package. Similar to Viking make tipping a part of the trip package.
- Dennis, 04/05/2026 08:13, Travelled in a Couple
Awesome trip, being able to experience a different island every day. Weather was super. Visited many sites and met wonderful people on the trip and in the towns. The boat crew and the tour guides were exceptional, providing excellent meals and services as well as recommendations for dining out and side tours. Tour guides Tokna, Matilda and Elena provided great direction and ensured we could handle the daily biking challenges. Thanks for a Great Experience.
- Bill, 28/04/2026 17:16, Travelled in a Couple
Well organised tour, very comfortable well run ship and excellent e-bikes. Clear riding instructions from dedicated guides with safety and fun at heart. Great way to see the islands, swim and explore. Food was outstanding and thoroughly recommend this to others.
- John , 20/10/2025 20:52, Travelled in a Couple
Great boat, staff, guides, food , like minded fellow travellers and Islands! The only thing out of their control was the weather and luckily for us that was also brilliant.x
- Stuart , 20/10/2025 07:05, Travelled in a Couple
Beautiful country! So much to wonder at, including natural beauty and medieval historical monuments. Our guides Tonka and Natasha were excellent, often going above and beyond to meet our needs and ensure our comfort. Plus, the boat accommodations were great and entire crew was friendly and service-oriented.

Our guides Josko and Anita were awesome. There were several obstacles put in their way due to weather and they did a great job to adjust when needed. The crew on the boat was also great. The captain had to also make changes when obstacles were presented. The food was excellent! The only issue was the wifi on the boat, Princess Diana. The wifi was rarely available. Luckily, boats park side by side at the ports, so we could hop on the wifi of other boats. Cycling through the Croatian islands was excellent, a great way to see the country. I'd do the tour again anyday.
- Marty, 15/10/2025 09:14, Travelled in a Couple
Guides, Ivica and Mario, were professional and took great care of us. They were also fun to be around. Swimming spots were very scenic. The bike rides were enjoyable and loved the scenic rides along the coast. Made a lot of new friends on the vacation. Thank you Sail Croatia for a wonderful vacation!
- Ron, 13/10/2025 17:50, Travelled in a Couple
We did a sail and cycle from Slit to Dubrovnik. There were several things that made the trip great: The crew, the 2 guides, the new friends we traveled with, and the gorgeous islands we cycled. My wife rode an e-bike that worked out great for her, and I chose a regular bike that gave me a great workout on the hills. The trip was extremely well organized, the food was very good, and our guides went above and beyond. A truly beautiful week!
- Michael, 13/10/2025 08:08, Travelled in a Couple
The cruise / bike tour was awesome. The other guests and the crew of the Mali Anti for the 4 Oct to 11 Oct 2025 Split to Dubrovnik tour were exceptional. Every ride was awesome, informative and "NICE". Tonka and Anna were great bike tour leaders. The ships crew were professional and a real pleasure to sail with. They made our sailing experience 5 stars. The cook was to notch and the food was delicious. Will definitely do a similar tour like this again. Met some really great people and we all got along very well.
- Larry, 13/10/2025 06:42, Travelled in a Couple
The crew was the best! Great experience overall with the biking, ports and boat.
- Alan, 13/10/2025 04:45, Travelled in a Couple
The cruise was made special by the staff onboard. Lola, Dora and all the crew were fantastic and made each day fun. The islands we visited were all different and it was great to see the Croatian countryside away from the cities and at a slow pace, The only thing I would criticise is that the Mali. Luka is looking a bit tired more at the end of the season and needs a makeover. That didn’t stop us from having a great holiday, but the boat itself could do with a spruce up.
- Peter, 13/10/2025 03:59, Travelled in a Couple
Great scenery, good quality bikes. Fantastic staff who adapted to weather issues with alternative exceptional cycle routes. The Captain, sailors, cooks, waitresses and cycle guides were all fantastic. Gained a lot of confidence in cycling hills and long distances versus battery capacity. E bikes definitely, hard work for conventional bikes. Recommend this company to anyone considering.
- Warren, 10/10/2025 10:15, Travelled in a Couple
Our bike tour leaders Marin and Ilona were fantastic. Highly skilled, organized, caring and kept our group very safe. I thoroughly appreciated, as well enjoyed spending time with them. Sail Croatia should highly regard both these staff. A big 6 out of 5 for these two. They went way above beyond what was well beyond the minimum they needed to do.
- Anonymous, 08/10/2025 13:01, Travelled in a Couple
The cycling was great , great variety of hills and vistas . Our cycling guide and “ sweeper “ were excellent. The rooms are basic but adequate. The ship was clean and the crew took care of all our needs . The group was a variety of people from different countries and it was a delight meeting everyone.
