This week was hands down the best week of my life. When I say it took me days to stop crying after, I meant it. The people, I made strong connections with, the activities and all. None of this would have been possible without the most amazing crew we all could’ve asked for. Ceili, Jakov and Carlos made our stay a whole lot more enjoyable and entertaining. Their knowledge, fun sense of humour and punctual hospitality meant we could have an amazing time, stress free. I can’t wait to come back with hopefully the same crew and with new lifelong friends and connections I have made. Thanks again!

Holiday was unreal Bruno is a great guide and Rocco, Bobo and the crew make the experience ever better couldn’t recommend more.

The experience was completely made by probably the best guide I’ve ever had in my life. Šimun opened by telling us all that it was his first time leading a sail and to bear with him incase he made a mistake. It turns out to be completely pointless because he was utterly fantastic at the job. An incredibly patient, empathetic and kind guide, he went out of his way to make sure everyone was informed about everything or had all the help he could possibly give them when and wherever possible. Being a local, specifically to Makarska and Split he was able to show us around with a familiar touch and go one step deeper into the history and the locals, often knowing many of the people we were walking past or telling us what the area is like in the off-season too, I’m astounded non-locals would be hired at all. He was also incredibly energetic and fun, if the vibes were low on the boat he made sure to join in and get everyone partying whilst also somehow being the last person asleep and first up

I signed up for this trip at the last minute and I am so glad I did. It was incredible in every way. Sailing on the Afrodita to all the islands was a truly special experience. If you strive on active and adventurous trips, this trip checks all the boxes, including not only biking and swimming but also enough free time to explore the islands as you want. The guides, Tonka and Natasha, were fabulous. They are knowledgeable, helpful and cheerful, always providing just enough direction but not too much. Since they are Croatians, I got a better sense of the country through them. The trip was extremely well orchestrated. For example, we might depart from one port on an island and then be met by the boat at another port. Never any hiccups, it was like magic! They also would adjust itinary based on weather or port conditions in a seamless way. Another nice thing is that dinners were on our own, so each night, we could do whatever we wanted for the evening.

I was delighted on the service on the ship and quality of our tour guides Cal and Tonka. Due to potentially bad weather they worked with the captain to tour the south of the island instead of the north. As a bonus they took us to a stone sculpting school. They did extensive research on all our stops about things to see and the history of the area. They were always in tune with our needs and went above and beyond. The ship is in excellent condition, the bikes were like new. The food on the ship was delicious and plentiful. Quite often we said the ships food was better than some of the restaurants we visited. I'm looking forward to booking another holiday with Sail Croatia

The staff were very welcoming and gave us an experience we won't forget. Clara, our representative, was extremely helpful as well as a joy to be around for the duration of the trip. Thanks to her, we knew everything we were doing well in advance activity wise. We had plenty of time to explore each island and there were many clubs, bars and restaurants to enjoy. I made friends easily as everyone was friendly, and you're all on the same boat.

Bruno was an excellent guide and ensured everyone was having a lovely time. All the crew were so lovely. Had the best time
- Nicholas, 01/07/2026 08:24, Travelled Solo
Overall I have a great time both on and off the boat. The crew was friendly and professional. The experience was memorable. If the age grouping could be fine tuned a little I would def consider another trip with sail Croatia. I was a little out of place with a group who were older than I was. My age or slightly younger would have been preferable.

I was apprehensive about travelling solo but needn't have been concerned. From start to finish this holiday exceeded my expectations. From the fantastic ship itself to the onboard crew, all operated like clockwork but with a very relaxed and flexible vibe all week. Sasa, our tour manager, had fantastic knowledge of each island we visited and kept us updated with the plans on each day via WhatsApp. The islands visited were amazing & the sailing and swim stops during the day were just so relaxing. The food onboard made by our chefs, Bojan and Zodojka was outstanding. Our two waiters Marco and Vlaho were also amazing and funny and went above and beyond. My cabin was super cool & very quiet each night (lower deck) and was thoroughly cleaned by Julia each day. I haven't slept so well in years! If you want to join others for chats and fun then you can, if you want to be on your own & relax, then you can - no pressure, just do what you want. I did a bit of both.
- Vic, 27/06/2026 09:55, Travelled Solo
I did the split to Dubrovnik week long trip and had the best experience ever. The host we had (Libby) was so good, she made everything clear what was happening each day which made it so easy if you were hungover the next day. The crew members on my boat were awesome they would come out with us want to get to know us more. Legit the best week of my life and have made some life long friends.
- Anonymous, 26/06/2026 10:30, Travelled Solo
Absolutely fantastic. One of the best trips of my life in one of the most beautiful countries I have visited (of >20). Emma and Pero were particular highlights that made the trip that much better. The only slight issue was the food was not as spicy to my liking so having sriracha would have been nice (really being a Karen here haha). Wouldn't change single thing and will definitely be back!!!
- Orko, 25/06/2026 14:14, Travelled Solo
The week was amazing, Nathan was an amazing skipper who livened the boat up and made the trip amazing
- Luke, 25/06/2026 09:59, Travelled Solo
This was easily the best week of my life! Not only was I incredibly lucky to be matched with a 10/10 group of people on the boat. I was lucky enough to have Antonio as a Guide and one of the most hospitable and fun Crews there is. I’m so incredibly grateful for their hard work. Everything they did was perfect and I literally could not have asked for anything more from the crew or Antonio himself. Thank you 100000000 times Antonio and the Crew! I hope to see you all again in the future! ❤️☀️🇭🇷

I had the best time ever on my sail! Clara really made the biggest difference she was super friendly and knowledgeable! She took great care of all of us and her effort did not go unnoticed!

I had a wonderful time doing a 7-day cruise with Sail Croatia. Other than the scenery being breathtaking, the crew and sales rep for our tour were fantastic. They were very knowledgable, kind, and had great vibes! I'd highly recommend this tour.
- Pouya, 22/06/2026 09:49, Travelled Solo
Awesome, couldn’t recommend Nikola and the Penelope crew enough
- Josh, 18/06/2026 09:56, Travelled Solo
I was worried about travelling on my first solo trip. Those worries were gone within my first hour on the boat. There were heaps of other solos, including my roommate, and what an amazing group of people I had on my boat Tvrdi! Unbelievable week with unbelievable people and I highly recommend it to anyone considering it! Unforgettable experience. Our host Clara was amazing, really looked after us all week. Every day gave us recommendations of what to do in port, and made the boat so fun. The whole crew was great, but big shout out to Marco for being a legendary bartender. Thanks all <3
- Charlie, 17/06/2026 12:52, Travelled Solo
Amazing experience, great group and really organised from the crew. Whole crew were very friendly and helpful. Special shoutout to our guide Johnny who made the whole experience that much better.
- Jay, 15/06/2026 15:08, Travelled Solo
Miran and Yossib were great. They quickly became friends as well as our guides. Each were very knowledgeable with all of the islands as well as the Biking adventure. I would recommend this trip to anyone. They definitely would need to be ready for a couple challenging bike rides.
- Scott, 15/06/2026 08:53, Travelled Solo
Brilliant , Lauren was fantastic. The crew were awesome! We had a good blend of people on the boat, from all over the world. Food was good and the places where we went were absolutely beautiful. The only complaint I have was the bed and sheets were a little short for me I am 6’2” I didn’t like the fact we had to “pay in cash” for the bar tab and local taxes at the end of the trip.
- Anonymous, 15/06/2026 06:59, Travelled Solo
I was super impressed with Sail Croatia, From the skipper, all the crew, our awesome English guide, Lauren, the facilities and all the stunning islands. Lauren gave us story time every day about the island we were visiting including its history and activity options. She was always available for information and recommendations. She really made the tour exceptional. The food that came out of such a tiny ships galley was also really impressive and the guys serving us ( Caesar and Kofta) were also awesome. I really can't fault the cruises. I went as a solo traveller and the friendship you make in the boat were a big part of the success of those cruise. I was in a below deck room which was also fantastic considering the space constraints on a small cruise, it was perfect.
- Jarrod, 14/06/2026 12:38, Travelled Solo
I went solo on Sail Croatia and had the best time. From day one, our rep Libby and the whole crew made everyone feel welcome, whether you were traveling solo or with friends. The vibe was incredible: great people, amazing locations, and even the little inside jokes that started on night one. Plenty of bell rings and partying, which was a lot of fun. Highly recommend if you want an adventure with genuine, fun people.
- Charles, 14/06/2026 11:14, Travelled Solo
Amazing trip lead by a very fun and knowledgeable tour guide Lauren. The bar staff Kafka and Caesar were fun and easily approachable who added to the enjoyment of this trip. For those in the low to mid 30s debating whether to do the explorer or navigator, definitely give explorer a go as you will find like minded individuals who are willing to have fun and make the trip one to remember
- Lachlan, 13/06/2026 13:12, Travelled Solo
I had a fantastic wrek visiting the Croatian islands and cycling everyday thanks Cal and Josko, highly recommended

The navigator cruise was an awesome experience. Each day was filled with lots of activities and chances to explore the different island of Croatia. Nikolai was a great tour guide always finding ways to entertain the crew, suggesting great restaurants aswell as activities. He organised all of our transport and would even leave the boat to come and pick people up after a night out. If you’re looking for a fun and adventure filled week look no further than Sail Croatia.
- Zack, 09/06/2026 09:30, Travelled Solo
The staff on the Big Blue were always a pleasure to talk to and made sure we were well looked after. The best part was having a guide as knowledgable as Tim and he was great fun to hang around
- Aaron, 08/06/2026 22:36, Travelled Solo
The holiday was more than excellent. The boat was very clean and comfortable. The crew were exceptional being very helpful and friendly. The food was excellent and our chef was great. Our tour managers Tonka and Lucija were wonderful. I really liked story time with history of Croatia etc. They regularly updated us on the group Whatsup. I was pleased I changed to an E-bike a month before leaving as there were some long hills to climb. We had a great very friendly group. I would def recommend this bike boat trip with Sail Croatia to anyone. I love Croatia.

My time aboard Big Blue from Split to Dubrovnik was one of my favourite weeks of my 6 month solo travel adventure around Europe. All of the guests on board were so fun and easy to get along with that we connected quickly and became like one big family for the entire week. The crew on-board were absolute legends. They provided excellent breakfasts and three course lunches, kept the energy high, the drinks flowing and were endlessly helpful. Similarly, our representative Augustin/Tin Tin was such an icon. He was super friendly and so much fun to be around whilst also being professional and informative when talking about the history of the locations we were visiting and providing dinner recommendations in each port. Overall, I would highly recommend doing a Sail Croatia cruise as it was a great way to travel, have fun and meet new people.
- Cody, 29/05/2026 22:52, Travelled Solo
Great experience! I made a lot of friends and explored this beautiful country. Our rep Tintin is passionate and professional, giving us amazing memory!

Sail Croatia was a brilliant time, met lots of great people! The crew were phenomenal, very cruisy, very generous and outright great people!
- Tane, 29/05/2026 18:23, Travelled Solo
Each port had it’s own unique vibe and were picked well. The crew and tour manager were fantastic and helpful, and food served by our chef was amazing. The group on our ship were fantastic and could’ve have asked for better! For those wondering about ship facilities there was drinking water, hot (very hot) showers, permanent electricity and fast WiFi on our boat Tuna. Probably one of the best holidays I’ve ever done with the style and small group on board. Will be recommending.
- Jack, 29/05/2026 13:39, Travelled Solo
Was very fun, tour guide Josip took very good care of the guests and made the experience unforgettable. 5 stars every day of the week

I travelled as a solo passenger but needn't have worried. From the offset it was the friendliest group of passengers, staff and crew i have ever met. The 2 Sail Croatia leaders, josko and Lauren , were outstanding and nothing was too much trouble, managing to change my picky carnivorous diet to a vegetarian one after 2 days. It was exactly the same with the crew of our boat, the "Dionis"- a very comfortable and ideally sized boat for the holiday- bigger boats around seemed too big and cold compared to the smaller boats. The excursions and cycle routes were absolutely ideal. Most of our 15 passengers opted for the E-bikes but 4 of us had the normal calf powered versions, which didn’t detract from the enjoyment. We had the chance to have a swim stop most days and after a chilly 10 minutes swim, the scorching onboard showers were a very pleasurable welcome experience. This was my first time as a solo traveller on a group trip but i now see it as the only way forward in future
- Simon, 18/05/2026 22:09, Travelled Solo
Hi Team! The holidays were incredible! Loved it from the first day till the last. Very nice crew, always open for questions, ready to help and present to laugh and have a good time while staying professional. Marin was a great host/guide/friend helping organizing everything and making sure we were enjoying ourselved as much as possible. A big thank you to everyone who made these fabulous holidays possible! I will 100% recommend this!

While we had questionable weather at times, the staff absolutely brought the energy and passion. From Nickola working tirelessly to ensure we had fun day plans to King Reggy behind the bar and the whole crew looking after us, we all felt safe, fed and excited each day. Definitely would do again.

- Michael, 07/10/2025 14:21, Travelled Solo
Olja and the entire crew on kapetan jure made sure the group got along well and had a good time. I was a bit worried about booking this trip coz i was 35 and i thought i will be the only millennial on this trip but the entire group got along well. Olja was phenomenal with her daily briefings, important info about all the places, classy jokes and she has great meme knowledge as well. Sail Croatia should definitely use her for online social media activities coz she can be the face of the company. I work in the travel industry in India and can proudly say she was the perfect trip manager for our trip.
