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.

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

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.

Great boat and crew, excellent food and amazing bike routes and guides - made for an awesome time.

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.

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!

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.
- Anonymous, 06/10/2025 08:13, Travelled in a Couple
The entire staff was very attentive to everyone's needs and were personable. They all shared historical information about places they were from and had great suggestions on what to do at every destination.
- David, 03/10/2025 16:49, Travelled in a Couple
Every aspect of this trip was unbelievable. The ship and crew were top notch. The food was fantastic! But probably the most exciting part was the bike tours of the islands. Both Marin and Mario were extremely knowledgeable and kept us informed of what we were seeing. The riding was beautiful. Swimming was excellent! The tours were informative.All while guiding us safely from place to place. But the star of the show was Croatia itself. I can’t wait to return!
- John, 01/10/2025 09:02, Travelled in a Couple
My wife and I sailed on the Princeza Diana and were absolutely thrilled with everything about the cruise. The cabins were well appointed, clean and up-to-date. The food was excellent, with a wide variety to choose from at breakfast. The lunches went above and beyond and were much more like a full dinner. The crew were always friendly and helpful and Miranda and Sanya were outstanding guides. Few of the reviews said much about the cycling, so we wanted to give a more detailed review. We're both 60 and trained for 6 months prior, riding over 900 miles. If you plan to ride a regular bike, you will need to train: the hills on Hvar and Vis are no joke, with climbs of 6 mi on Hvar and two climbs of 4 mi on Vis. While very difficult, they were very rewarding and the views were spectacular. The other 5 days were much easier in comparison. In total for the week we rode 102 miles with 8,000 ft of elevation. The bikes were excellent, the seats were comfortable, but bring a bag for the rack.
- Jeff, 29/09/2025 22:45, Travelled in a Couple
The boat crew and guides were friendly and caring. The rides were varied and with informative talks during the rests. The swimming was fabulous and the catering to a good and nutritious standard. Fortunately, the weather played along too. As a 70-year old couple travelling on our own, we enjoyed meeting and interacting with people of our own age and similar fitness. Do remember to bring along a swimming towel.
- Lindsay, 29/09/2025 12:35, Travelled in a Couple
The crew of the Afrodita were impeccable! Everyone treated us very well! Poppy was very attentive and friendly, The cook and food was very good! Sonja and Joseph were excellent travel guides The bikes were great! We had a very good group that all got along! The Afrodita was very clean and the captain and sailors were very good. We would highly recommend sail Croatia
- Gregg , 29/09/2025 10:47, Travelled in a Couple
I must say the fellow passengers made the week even better than expected. Although the Sail Croatia crew were fantastic. Food on board was plentiful and beautiful, the Chef was outstanding. Our Cycle guides were great , friendly, helpful and fun to be with. Overall my wife and I were so glad we booked the cruise I would recommend it to everyone..
- Peter, 29/09/2025 10:15, Travelled in a Couple
We like to be active when we travel and the boat/bike Sail Croatia trip through the Croatian Island was the perfect combination of activity/sightseeing and fun. The personal touch of our 2 guides: Josko and Sanja was second to none. The crew on the boat did a great job as well. Food and drinks (except maybe the coffee) far exceeded my expectations. All around a fantastic trip. We felt well taken care of at all times and I will definitely recommend Sail Croatia to anyone looking for this type of vacation.
- Jamie, 29/09/2025 08:44, Travelled in a Couple
Excellent biking guides kept our group well informed and entertained while exploring six of the Croatian islands over seven days of rides. They also provided good restaurant recommendations for dinner at various ports. One day was stormy and our ride cut short but we sheltered safely and rode back to the boat after the rain subsided, all good…. Our group of 30 riders turned out to be very compatible and fun loving, no complainers!! The Captain’s dinner and subsequent party on board was a lot of fun. The crew was vey pleasant and helpful during the entire voyage.
- Pete, 29/09/2025 07:42, Travelled in a Couple
The guides were very good, knowledgeable about all the Locations that we visited. helpful and friendly all the time .The food was below average and we were hoping for a lot better. Although the rooms were small they were ok but they were damp and clothes and bed sheets damp even with ac on. I would still recommend, but on a different boat with a different chef
- Brian , 28/09/2025 15:30, Travelled in a Couple
Very well organised by lovely leaders and support crew. Comfy boat cabin. Beauty all around us on the Adriatic as well as on the islands. Great bikes and rides with excellent views for our efforts (little on the electric bikes!) and the thought of a cold beer and a lovely three-course meal and an amazing swim to look forward to. Then a choice of quality restaurants to choose from for dinner. Met many lovely fellow bikers. All together, a most wonderful holiday.
- David, 28/09/2025 12:02, Travelled in a Couple
Great trip, nice way to see the coast and islands of Croatia. I am avid cyclist and in great shape. The mileage distances are deceiving very short distance but every where is up from the boat where you start cycling. The climbs are steep and not so short. The E Bike is a much better way to go. The guides do an excellent job of helping the entire groups on the rides. Staff of the boats are amazing and they work very hard to keep everybody happy. I would recommend this trip.

Departing from Split with Marlin and Josip plus crew, we sailed for the islands with bikes on board. Our hosts were fantastic; well organised, helpful, friendly and competent. Great cycle trips and balance of cycling and free time. The ship and crew were super.b. Ended up in Dubrovnik to enjoy the wonderful city. All in all a superb holiday and trip. Many thanks to all the team.

Our guides Marin and Josip were outstanding. They were so friendly, informative, caring and so much fun. Our experience on the sail and bike cruise was made so much better because of these 2 outstanding people. The places we visited were exceptionally beautiful made all the better because of our guides. We will be recommending Sail Croatia and in particular the sail and bike cruise to all our family and friends in New Zealand.
- Steven, 24/09/2025 05:15, Travelled in a Couple
The crew and guides were very attentive to our needs and ensured that we were always enjoying ourselves. Ivica and Ilona were exceptional guides extending rides when possible and always ensuring our safety. Our chef Bane prepared excellent meals on a daily basis. His attention to detail was obvious. The boat was always clean and well maintained. Our sailors Ivan, Marin and Captain Tomo were very hospitable and made us feel welcomed. Our bartender and waiter Josip paid careful attention to our needs and always had a smile. The manager Kristijana went out of her way to ensure our questions were answered and made us all feel very welcomed and valued guests.
- Perry, 23/09/2025 23:40, Travelled in a Couple
Ante and his staff were excellent in every way. Marin and Ana were very good humoured, informative, and safety conscious. The bike routes chosen were spectacular and challenging which was great. There was enough relaxation time on deck and perfect swimming spots off of the boat. The food was delicious and I ate everything. Thank you for a wonderful vacation.
- Anonymous, 22/09/2025 17:27, Travelled in a Couple
Good mix of cycling, mostly in the morning before the warmest part of the day, followed by sightseeing, swimming, walking, and relaxing. Knowledgeable and friendly guides made all the cycling trips worry-free and educational.
- Ian, 22/09/2025 13:08, Travelled in a Couple
It was a perfect combination of cycling, swimming, exploring and eating. Initially we thought the cycling would be too easy, but it was intense short rides, combined with swimming stops. Eight days of not having to move your luggage.
- James, 22/09/2025 11:33, Travelled in a Couple
Seamless holiday, great riding, swimming food and crew. Thanks
- Joe, 22/09/2025 06:40, Travelled in a Couple
The trip was nothing short of wonderful. The crew and especially our tour guides Lola and Dora were fun, informative and helpful if needed.. The biking and touring were well organized and the views amazing. Food onboard was very good. We also had a group of well traveled, interesting and fun shipmates from around the world. I am glad to say we had just a fantastic experience and highly recommend Sail Croatia.
- Larry , 22/09/2025 05:43, Travelled in a Couple
Well organized and thoughtfully executed. From day 1 to day 7, the entire crew made you feel welcome and each excelled in their respective duties.
- Jay, 22/09/2025 04:36, Travelled in a Couple
Amazing experience with fantastic hosts Moran and Anna. The Dionis crew were fantastic always hospitality and willing to help. The bike tours were great and allowed you to see and visit places not possible otherwise.
- Paul, 20/09/2025 06:47, Travelled in a Couple
Well managed trip with hard working and knowledgeable staff and guides. The rooms were small and uncomfortable. Older boat needs an update. Food was adequate, but not outstanding. Riding in groups was challenging as some inexperienced riders.
- Mark, 19/09/2025 03:04, Travelled in a Couple
A five star experience from the moment we boarded our boat. Cleanliness of the boat, a very helpful crew and quality and variety of the food was outstanding. Our guides were organized, knowledgeable and very attentive to ensure all customers had the experience they expected. What made the island trips very special was our ability to cycle into smaller towns and villages on each island and truly experience Island life. We had a number of people on the boat that were second and third time customers. This speaks volumes of the quality of overall experience.
- Terry, 16/09/2025 06:12, Travelled in a Couple
Good host, good food and great itinerary.
- Nigel, 15/09/2025 07:38, Travelled in a Couple
The boat was very old and really it did fall short of expectations. Light didn't work. No key for safe. Old and slippery tiles in shower. Old shower. It needs to be better. Communication between guides and passengers was minimal. Half the time we were never really sure of what was going on. Rides were spread out. You probably need 2 groups. One to do a longer ride, and one to do a shorter ride. We also needed to stop at a private bay here and there for a swim. We rode past so many secluded rocky beaches with crystal clear water, but never stopped

Thank you for taking the time to provide us with a review of our services! We're sorry to hear that some aspects of your experience did not meet your expectations. We take all feedback seriously, and upon reviewing our internal reports, we found no records of issues concerning the lighting, safe, or shower facilities in your cabin. We have a rigorous process in place for reporting and resolving any onboard concerns, which is outlined in your pre-departure information. Following this process ensures that no issue goes unaddressed and gives our crew the best opportunity to resolve matters promptly during the cruise. While we have received excellent feedback throughout the season for your ship, we appreciate all insights and will take your comments into consideration to ensure we maintain a high standard for all our guests. In terms of ride structure, we understand your concern about group pacing. Safety is a top priority for us, which is why we always provide two experienced guides for each ride — one at the front and one at the back — to manage different riding speeds and support the group throughout the route. We also appreciate your suggestion about offering separate ride options for different levels and will certainly take this into consideration for future departures.Your idea to include more swim stops at secluded bays is also well noted. We agree that these moments can be some of the most memorable, and we’ll explore how we can better incorporate them where timing and logistics allow. Thank you again for your feedback — it plays a key role in helping us enhance the experience for future guests.
Excellent trip - the guides were super friendly and professional and went above and beyond to make our this a wonderful experience The locations visited were stunning and the cycling very enjoyable (once we changed to e-bikes…) Not luxurious- but more than adequate I would highly recommend this trip to anybody
- Peter Crotty, 11/09/2025 09:48, Travelled in a Couple
the staff was excellent! Sonya, Miranda, Lubicza and Carlo all had excellent interpersonal people skills and language skills. Sonya and Miranda were very helpful to me because I was a new rider. They explained things multiple times and never lost their patience. These are excellent instructors because they had to manage a group of riders who had different abilities. I would do it again. Food, chefs and cabin were also excellent. Air conditioning at night did not always go on. That is my only criticism.
- david, 11/09/2025 00:38, Travelled in a Couple
Cycling the route Dubrovnik to Split thru the islands was nothing short of spectacular. The e-bikes were great, the food was good and the crew very good. Especially Mario and Andro. You guys rock! Being over 70, we were a bit nervous but the crew and the others on the boat made us feel like one big family. Thanks to the captain and crew for keeping us on course, safe and well fed!
- Eldon, 10/09/2025 15:28, Travelled in a Couple
Very well organised, great fun and perfect mix of excercise (cycling) and socialising (mainly eating, drinking and exchanging stories) with fellow guests. Special thanks to Miranda and Sanja for expert guidance and story telling on our daily cycles and to Ljubica and Karlo for superb bar & restaurant service and to captain and ship crew for guiding us safely in and out of our many ports, including loading and unloading 34 bikes each time.
- Graham, 10/09/2025 14:15, Travelled in a Couple
We did the boat/bike from Dubrovnik to Split and enjoyed ourselves thoroughly! Our accomodation on board Colombo was very comfortable and our breakfast and lunch each day provides the fuel we needed to ride. No complaints about the food, although the tuna served at the Captain’s Dinner was overcooked for our preference. The crew of Colombo were all friendly and helpful if anything, I could have done a little more cycling most days, but that is not a complaint. We were very impressed with Andro and Mario. Thank you for a wonderful adventure. I 🩷 Croatia!!
- David, 10/09/2025 12:43, Travelled in a Couple
The bike rides, the stops on different islands, your staff, the food.. Overall, we were very impressed with our holidays and will highly recommend to others.
- Richard, 08/09/2025 06:16, Travelled in a Couple

- Henry, 08/09/2025 06:04, Travelled in a Couple
It started with communication. The staff at Sail- Croatia communicated were very accommodating. Prompt responses and always made you feel comfortable. The crew ship staff were excellent as well.
