A massive thank you to Sail Croatia for their exceptional service and for the quality of their offering... they made our 20th wedding anniversary holiday a memorable experience. Everything is thoughtfully taken care off, from your arrival to your return at the airport. The transfers, boat preparation, travelling week, welcoming return, etc. allowed us to enjoy a beautiful Croatia by sea and learn some useful skills along the way. We will happily return for another trip soon!

After friends recommendation we booked the Wine Cruise Dubrovnik to Split and it was an amazing trip and we made some new friends from all over the world. The cruise, boat crew, food on board and the trips were amazing.

This was a great experience. Vin did a great job coordinating all of the wine tastings and providing excellent background to each destination. Also, Tony and Henry did a great job with the bar service and meal service. The food was excellent and the chef did a great job. The only issue was one of the wine tasting destinations had a problem with the bus not being available for returning us to the marina. Several vans were ordered to accommodate everyone's return trip. Thank you for a wonderful expeience.

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.

It was amazing from start to finish, staff were so friendly, the food that came out the small kitchen was absolutely delicious , our tour guide was so informative, he booked restaurants for us , bars, knew everything about every area we stopped he couldn’t have been any better , we had daily swim stops which were beautiful, full breakfasts, 3 course lunches , tea and biscuits, I was really sceptical when booking , but it is one of the best holidays I have been one , anyone debating on going with sail Croatia , please don’t it was amazing and I will definitely be doing another one

If you can find fault with this holiday you have spent the week looking for it, and even then I doubt you will find it. Everything was perfect from breakfast to evening drinks before bed, each trip out was well organised to get the most out of the experience and with morning swims stops everyday each day just flowed perfectly. We had a small kitchen on board that did breakfast and lunch. Well they called it lunch, but each day was a set menu of three courses and the food that came out of that small kitchen was just amazing and all made fresh on board, very talented people in that kitchen first class. Would I recommend Sail Croatia for a holiday, yes without a doubt, Beautiful country, beautiful people, beautiful ship

We travelled on the OLIMP. The only weakness of this trip was the arrival into Dubrovnik. This was a special week made so by the boat crew, staff Sail Croatia and the other guests. Would I do this again - YES. The islands, swimming spots were beautiful.
- Simon, 21/10/2025 04:02, 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.

Had a great time, low passenger (21) to staff ratio really helped. Couple of things though - Last cruise of the season meant we had to ask for things like spa being heated, etc - there wasn't a lot of initiative from crew in general, Also food and alcohol was running out so they weren't going to replace certain things. While we got a very SLIGHT reduction in price from peak time it did mean that we still felt as though we had to ask for things. Swim stops were awesome, but many people wanted to do more snorkelling options - It would have been easy to pull in a little closer to shore (100 metres) so we could see the bottom rather than swim there (I swam 250m there and back on one just to see the bottom). These are all minor details - the room was great, the tour manager Dino was AMAZING and dealt so well with a lot of different personalities. He responded immediately to all queries and was very patient with some of the more demanding passengers. We met great people.. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Seamless organisation and profesionalism at every aspect of service deliveries! Big shoutout to Andrija, Tsvetan, Jakša & Kristijan. You make Sail Croatia a top notch firm. See you soon.
- Nikola, 20/10/2025 07:39, Travelled Solo
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.
- Greg, 20/10/2025 06:13, Travelled in a Couple
We had a wonderful time , the all around service , organization and experience was 5 star. ⭐️ Our 2 guides, Tonka and Natasha were just great, knowledgable , helpful, fun and so kind. David was exceptional at all his duties , all the staff was first class . Thank you for a memorable week on the Afrodita Steve and Kari Towers.
- Steve, 20/10/2025 05:49, Travelled with Family
Great boat and crew, excellent food and amazing bike routes and guides - made for an awesome time.
- Henry, 17/10/2025 19:31, Travelled in a Couple
The group of people were all unknowns when we started but soon clicked. We met so many great people and all got on so well together. The cruise was well planned and despite a day or two of windy conditions it went off without a hitch. The staff were were always friendly and happy and willing to help whenever possible.

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.

We did the Explorer trip early October '25, so the towns visited were not as busy as peak season, which was great. Interactions with Sail Croatia ahead of the trip were clear, concise and quick (I would recommend sending guests a pdf or e-mail itinerary ahead of departure). The cabins were sufficient for a week's travel, the included lunch and breakfast perfect and crew and tour manager Nikos all very helpful. Additional excursions were suggested and organised where required. The only disappointment was that we couldn't do a swim stop during any of the days due to the windy weather. One could swim at the towns, though. Just to note, Croatia along the coast has become expensive for anyone that might be travelling on a budget, but all in all the trip was well worth it. The towns and natural surrounds exceeded all expectations and experiencing it on a small cruise boat (36 guests) is highly recommended.

The staff were very friendly and accommodating The food was adequate but could have been somewhat better..Enjoyed my time in the Dalmatian islands

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.

To start i would love to say that the boat was in very clean and tidy order when we arrived, We where welcomed abourd by our friendly guide Nikola who did an outstanding job of making us feel at home and even better job of orgonising such a big group… he managed to keep us all busy even on days when weather did not permit and went out of his way at all hours of the day/night to make sure we where satisfied. Captain Ivan was faced with some big weather challenges along the way and did everything in his power to try and keep everyone as comfortable as possible… i know this being a captain myself. Renato, our amazing barman/restauranteer managed to stay up to the early morning most nights not only to keep us hydrated but to entertain aswell and i believe we will stay friends for some time. Chef kris The food was always outstanding and on time and the man was always happy to see smiles on peoples faces. All and all the whole crew was outstanding and i will be reccomending to friends.
- Tim Bray, 10/10/2025 12:35, 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
Katerina is owned and crewed by the family. This is a 5 star rating. Ship is spotless and crew are the best. Owner and crew (mostly family and cousins) are so attentive to every detail. Meals: adequate and enjoyable but not outstanding. Captains' dinner was very good. Activities: not memorable. Walking tour in Dubrovnik was boring. Ship provided dinner was not impressive. Should have stayed in port and gone to local restaurant Ioana our tour director was 5 stars' She had to deal with a lot of shifting itinerary and was a truly shing star for the passengers. Overall was a nice experience. Met a lot of good people and that was a big plus; Croatia is very expensive on the street Plan to spend some BIG $$ in local establishments. Overall, a check on our bucket list. Nice but would not do again

It was evident from the start that this was a cruise on a well maintained ship that was in family ownership - with family serving as captain and bar tender. The whole crew were friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. We were treated to great food and swim stops were arranged in a safe environment. Tours were expertly arranged. It was a very memorable experience

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
There was great company and lots of fun. Vicko the tour manager was top class and very knowledgeable. Staff excellent. Itinerary very good but too little time in Dubrovnik after staying on the boat for lunch.
- Michael, 07/10/2025 14:21, Travelled Solo

- John, 07/10/2025 07:38, Travelled in a Couple
We sailed on the Queen Jelena (Split North itinerary). Beautiful boat, really good crew. The food onboard was just OK, often just warm rather than hot. A 3 course lunch is not what most people have day to day at home and the thoughts from fellow passengers were thst this was a bit rigid and maybe a buffet style lighter lunch would be better as it felt you had breakfast and a couple of hours later a large lunch making you lethargic. Trips were ok, village dinner was good, buggy trip was good but not best value. More time needed in Dubrovnik as it beautiful, I would skip the walking tour (pointless) and enjoy more time exploring yourself. All stops on this itinerary were beautiful. One last point; the daily briefing should be carried out using the TV in the saloon as shown on the website content so you can actually get a visual idea of your day ahead. The WhatsApp group is useful when it's set up. Overall a good experience, 7.5/ 10
- Paul , 07/10/2025 05:49, Travelled in a Couple
This trip was organised by my wife,Tracy, having never cruised before my expectations were low, however from the time we arrived on the boat to the time we left the experience was exceeded. We meet 36 people who we had never met before from America, Canada, Barbados and the UK, we had so much fun. The ship’s crew were fun and worked hard to make sure we enjoyed our time onboard. Croatia is a beautiful country and the people we have met have been fantastic. Would we do it again -YES.
- Steve, 07/10/2025 03:36, Travelled in a Couple
The boat, Romantic Star was fantastic! Beautiful rooms with lots of light and wonderful staff that took care of everything. I loved that we were able to tie up each evening and find dinner in different restaurants after having great breakfast and lunches on board each day. It was an incredible trip.
- Nancy, 06/10/2025 14:55, Travelled in a Couple
The boat crew and the tour guide and cruise manager, also the chef who provided fantastic food. All went over and above what was expected. The rest of the crew were equally as good.
- Murray, 06/10/2025 13:06, 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.

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.

We booked sail Croatia cruise for our 30th wedding anniversary and have never cruised before. We were a little skeptical in the beginning if this would be right for us. But we absolutely LOVED this small group setting the swim stops, the food, the ship and rooms were absolutely great.. We had wished that there were pool noodles as my husband isn't a big swimmer. The pillows in the rooms were not very supportive - but all in all we would absolutely come back for a Sail Croatia cruise! We also want to give a huge shout out to our director and guide Vicko was amazing! informative and full of so much knowledge.
- Kelly, 05/10/2025 01:24, Travelled in a Couple
