The entire week was a lot of fun and a very enjoyable experience. The freedom of riding across the Croatian islands to take in the magnificent scenery was tremendous. I would thorough recommend a Sail Croatia bike holiday to anyone considering.

Loved being able to ride the bikes through the Islands of Croatia and see the villages of the various islands. So many old ways are still observed, but over tourism is going to hurt this region in the long term. This is the way tourism should be be done, in small groups. Those big cruise ships are horrible for this beautiful country!!

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

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.

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.

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
Andro and Mario were great guides and very informative and entertaining. Mario’s dining and drinking options were spot on. Food was very good. My only suggestions to make the trip better would be to not mix e-bikes and standard bikes - standard bikes kept e-bikes waiting for too long.
- Doug, 10/09/2025 06:40, Travelled with Friend/s
Bike leaders Sanja and Miranda provided great routes. They provided top drawer guidance, recommendations, bike support and were very flexible with us. Ship crew were friendly and ship was nice with friendly clothes lines.. island stops were amazing .
- Terry, 09/09/2025 07:15, Travelled with Family
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
The itinerary was well plannned with excellent leaders. I especially enjoyed the bike routes and swim spots! The food was good but the coffee was not acceptable! I would use Sail Croatia again!
- 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.
- Antonio Simone , 08/09/2025 05:42, Travelled in a Couple
We weren’t sure quite what to expect when we were making plans around this trip but it ended up being a terrific combination of good company, absolutely spectacular sightseeing, and a great cruise, something we weren’t sure we would have ever done any other way. Our trip leader Miranda was the consummate professional, responding to every one of our needs, and handling some tricky situations with grace, speed and compassion. Sanjay’s love for her country and her work shone through every day in her stories of the islands. In short, my wife and I had a blast, thank you Sail Croatia!
- Peter , 08/09/2025 03:17, Travelled with Friend/s
Wonderful scenery. Excellent staff and crew. While there I had an injury. Guides Anna and Marin where very helpful getting me information about medical care. They arrange transportation to medical facility for me. They went above and be on what could be expected. and seen that I was well cared for the rest of the trip.
- charlie, 06/09/2025 14:47, Travelled with Friend/s
We had a wonderful time on the Sail Croatia bike trip! (we did Split southern return to Split) What made it extra special was our two guides Miranda and Ilona! They absolutely nailed it from a tour guide perspective. They mixed safety, fun, local culture history and helped with getting us transfers at the end of the trip! I hope to do this trip again, and hopefully we can re-create the experience with them!

Our cycle/boat trip was a great mix of sightseeing, swimming, coffee, snacks and exercise. I recommend using an electric bike, even if you are a cyclist. George was our chef. . . he was the best. Lots of vege’s with his meals. Great guides.
- Richard, 25/08/2025 09:36, Travelled in a Couple
Your staff is awesome and very helpful. More details need to go to the ship and rooms.
- Glenn, 20/08/2025 21:09,
We had an excellent week with Andre and Sanja on the Donis. The weather was perfect, as was the crew and guides services. Lots of boat and swim time, excellent guided bike rides and time to explore the communities we visited. Would highly recommend this trip and will be back to Croatia again.

Firstly, the crew. They were excellent. Nothing was ever too much trouble and they were constantly enthusiastic during the week’s holiday - despite the heat! Miranda and Ilona were amazing and Sail Croatia is very lucky to have them. You had their undivided attention throughout the experience and work tremendously hard but always with a smile on their face. Food was excellent too! Thank you again, Angelo
- Angelo, 19/08/2025 08:49, Travelled in a Couple
The islands and towns are spectacular but the crew and especially the guides Miranda and Ilona made the trip special.

Great sized group so got to know everyone, great guides Miranda and Eloni, beautiful countryside. I loved the rock walls. Definitely will be recommending this trip.

I cannot speak highly enough about the Sail Croatia tour. The crew was fantastic. The guides were great. No surprises! Everything they said in the advertising was accurate. I would highly recommend them to you.

My wife and I really enjoyed the fun, sights and camaraderie of our island-hopping cycling trip. Our expert guides, Miranda and Matilda, were there to guide us on each of the rides according to our abilities and encourage the group to support one another on this terrific, shared experience. Each of the island ports and rides on the trip showed the contrasts of this coastline. Thanks Sail Croatia for making this such a memorable highlight of holiday.

I had the best time on our cycling cruise. The food was above expectations and I could not have been happier with the crew and cycling tour guides. Everyone was friendly and welcoming. I have disembarked with some of the best memories. Thank you to the Captain and crew. I miss the food already.
- Igor, 23/07/2025 08:08, Travelled with Friend/s
My second Sail Croatia holiday and just as good as the first. I chose the Split Northern Cycle Tour to explore some new places and more of some of the places I'd visited previously, It was a great trip with an excellent multi national bunch of people on board. We were well looked after and the rides were excellent, scenic, varied, interesting and challenging but do go for the e-bike option unless you are a serious bike rider!
- Peter, 22/07/2025 12:45, Travelled Solo
Cannot say enough about this bike/cruise we took with Sail Croatia. Perfect weather, excellent staff & crew on our ship (the COLUMBO), small sized passenger group (twenty four in all, making for relaxed, easy mingling, creative and delicious use of food on board, and just wonderful stops all along the Southern Route, SPLIT to DUBROVNIK. I wish we'd had more time to double back and do the Northern route as well, as some of our fellow passengers had done. Perhaps we'll get back soon! Truly, the trip of a Lifetime.
- William, 14/07/2025 21:16, Travelled in a Couple
The whole staff, meals and boat were amazing. Our guides Miranda and Matilda made sure we had a great safe bike ride and had good stories to tell at each stop. Thoroughly enjoyed the riding, swimming and good times.

The hospitality and coordination were top-notch, and the crew couldn’t have been more welcoming. Our chef wowed us with mouthwatering meals every single day. As for the tour guides—they were incredible! They always knew exactly where to find the best coffee!

My wife and I experienced our first trip to Croatia aboard the Mali Ante on the Split Southern Return voyage along with 30 of our friends. The ship's crew were amazong. Ivan, Mario, Ilea, and Captain Ivica. were all so friendly, attentive, and took great care of us. (If you like a good cocktail, be sure to order the Mario Special.) Chef Ivica and sous chef Antonio prepared delicious food, including traditional Croatian cuisine for the Captain's dinner, hearty lunches for post-cycling recovery, and breakfasts that fueled us up for our rides. Speaking of the rides, I can't say enough good things about our guides, Tonka and Sanja. Every morning they would give us a detailed briefing about the day's journey; the length, difficulty, water stops, road conditions, etc. Tonka's humor put even the inexperienced cyclists at ease, and Sanja was so informative with her stories about the islands and the towns we rode through. We are already planning a return to beautiful Croatia. Puno hvala!
- Darren, 09/07/2025 15:40, Travelled with Friend/s
Our time on board the ship and during the cycling cruise was fantastic. The ship's crew was friendly and professional. Our cycling guides, Tonka and Sanja, were excellent, fun, and took us to many wonderful places. They also made numerous recommendations that were very helpful and enjoyable. My only criticism was for communication with the Sail Croatia personnel. It was difficult to find out which boat you were assigned to because that information was buried in a specific email link. I also asked about storage on the bicycles since they had racks and was told there was none. There were panniers provided and I did not need the backpack I had bought based on the misinformation.

This is one of the best examples of an ‘Expedition’ Cruise. The combination of exercise with beautiful scenery, camaraderie, swimming in the Adriatic, food & beverages and great company was an amazing experience.
- Shane, 07/07/2025 21:53, Travelled in a Couple
We had a wonderful time on the Biking cruise and it was largely due to the efforts of the Crew of the Mali Ante and our guides, Tonka and Sanja. From the moment we set foot on board, the crew took care of our every need, often before we asked. The food prepared by Chef was fantastic, and the service from Ivan and Mario in the saloon was exceptional. Tonka and Sanja worked very well together as a team for the bike riding and the touring with very detailed information about both and always making us laugh and smile. These women are top-notch and I would trust them to take care of guests in every situation. I can't believe how quickly the week passed by and I wasn't ready for the trip to end. I highly recommend a trip with this crew and these guides to anybody considering a trip in beautiful Croatia.
- Keil, 07/07/2025 14:33, Travelled with Friend/s
What a fun way to see Croatia for the first time. Sailing the Adriatic sea with stunning views everywhere one looked. The rides brought us to amazing views we would not have found otherwise. The crew of the Maliante was professional, skilled and kind. Special call out to the chef. Such amazing meals. Tonka led each ride with clarity, route knowledge and a great sense of humor. Sanjay guided us through Croatuon culture and history with engaging story times. She was went above and beyond in finding us dinner and cocktail recommendations and reservations. The whole trip is highly recommended
- Rex, 07/07/2025 14:20,
Being able to cycle and see the places we visited with local knowledge guides. E Bikes makes it much easier and open to a wide variety of abilities. Stopping at every port and trying out local restaurants was also nice.
- Mark , 27/06/2025 04:46, Travelled with Friend/s
good sociable week with like minded people. good mix of exercising and chilling. would of liked a couple of longer rides, maybe alternate days to mix it up. The boat was immacuateley kept and all the crew were very obliging. the guides Mirander and Martin were also very informative and helpful with any requests.

Our sail/cycle cruise with Sail Croatia was the highlight of our trip. From great company, good food and a wonderful itinerary and marvelous crew our expectations were exceeded.
- ralph, 26/06/2025 14:56, Travelled in a Couple
We heard from two unrelated friends about Sail Croatia and it definitely met my expectations. Our guides, Miranda and Martin were amazing. They were organized, kind, and great communicators. The food was amazing and the cycling spectacular. We made new friends and had plenty of time to relax, swim in the perfectly clear Adriatic Sea, play games, tour the cities, and create amazing memories. I want to do it again as soon as possible.
- Rob, 24/06/2025 17:35, Travelled in a Couple
This trip was absolutely outstanding and I would recommend this to everybody. . The team from Sail Croatia our guides (Ivica & Mario) did an outstanding job looking after the 29 people on the boat & riding. Everyone one on this trip got on really well. The boat Emanuel whilst built in the mid 50's was in outstanding condition and their crew looked after the boat like it was brand new. The riding pace was generally easy with an e/bike and we covered more km's than advertised which was great.. Ivica & Mario stoped and gave great information several times during each ride. Would love to do another Sail Croatia bike trip.

The tour managers (Ivan and Lucija) were fun and knew the right balance of professionalism and attentiveness. The bar manager/ waiter (Andre) was ever present and thoughtful. The crew were flexible to the requests of the Group e.g. additional stops for swimming off the back of the boat.
- Mark, 21/06/2025 14:50, Travelled in a Couple
The stops and bike rides were absolutely wonderful. Ivan and Lucy were great guides taking us to places that really showed Croatia. It was one of the most enjoyable trips I've been on and the highlight of our tour through Europe.
- David, 21/06/2025 04:51, Travelled in a Couple
Our e-bike adventure from Dubrovnik to Split exceeded our expectations. Great fellow travelers, friendly and helpful crew and a casual but professionally run tour. Breakfast and lunch on the ship and dinners out at a different island every night was just so fun!
