From questions at booking right through the end of the cruise this was by far one of the best vacations we ever had.. the crew was attentive, enthusiastic and downright amazing, The itinerary was a perfect balance of activity, downtime and sightseeing. We will be back!

Second time on a Sail Croatia trip and it did not disappoint. The boat was comfortable and the food was very good. Crew helpful and very friendly. The guides, Lola and Ilona, were knowledgeable, friendly and really looked after us well. Hikes were very good, places we visited beautiful and stunning views. Great company on the boat, lots of laughter. A really good week.

Loved the pace and format of the cruise. Nice blend of excursions and free time. Cruise Director was very knowledgeable and helpful. Food was excellent at all meals. I do recommend having the option of pancakes, crepes and waffles for breakfast at least once a week. Crew did an excellent job of accommodating my food allergy. I definitely recommend this tour.

Sail Croatia Elegance Cruise on Olimp - wow! We had high expectations but even they were exceeded! The ship was immaculate, cleaned and polished daily. All the areas were as shown and even better in person. We enjoyed the various spaces on the ship at different times. Our Tour Guide V (Vedran) was so helpful, joyful and always smiling - he made the cruise so much fun and we had lots of laughs together! Captain George (Jure) and all the crew were so sweet, kind and caring - doing a fabulous job of looking after us all. The buffet breakfast had everything you could possibly want on offer. The daily three course lunch (and four course Captain’s Dinner!) were all beautiful in presentation, variety and taste. All ports visited were great. We were lucky to be blessed with perfect weather and also a wonderful group of passengers. We could not want for anything more, thank you!

Our friendly crew and guide (Klara) were friendly, fun, and very helpful the entire trip. Our chef spoiled us with fantastic meals. The ship was spotlessly clean the whole time. We loved the swim stops! We enjoyed each island.

Our trip with Sail Croatia was nothing short of spectacular. From breathtaking scenery to unforgettable swims in crystal-clear waters, the entire journey was filled with adventure, good vibes, and new friendships. A huge part of what made our experience so incredible was Klara, who led our island tours and adventures with infectious energy. Charismatic, charming, and full of local knowledge, Klara brought each destination to life. Her passion for the islands and her ability to engage and energize the group was unmatched – we felt lucky to have her guiding us. That said, a note to future travellers: know what kind of trip you're booking. This style of sailing trip brings together people from all walks of life, and it's important to understand that you're joining a shared space on board. Some passengers seemed surprised by the format, but that's not on the crew – it's about reading the itinerary and knowing what kind of experience you're signing up for.

The guides were entertaining and fun, the ride itself was doable for anyone with a bit of biking, the food was excellent, and Croatia was stunning at every turn! Our fellow travelers were truly an amazing group — all positive and great fun! I’m trying to talk friends into going. With multiple routes available I might just join them!!
- Betsy, 12/05/2025 05:18, Travelled in a Couple
Crew where very great, friendly and profesional. The bike rides where very organised and beautiful. The E bikes where in very good condition and what i like mosted is that those where safe to ride. Tonka and Anita did a great job of keeping us safe and together.

Our wine cruise wasn't full so maybe we benefitted from some extra attention but the crew were really friendly and helpful. Our lower deck cabin was quiet but bright and although storage was a little limited worked fine for us. Lunch was varied and excellent, although sometimes a three course lunch was a little early in the day. The wine tastings in Stari Grad and Milna were our favourites, and the excursion on Vis was fascinating. Swim stops were fun, although the water was still pretty cold at the end of April/early May. The islands and coastline are spectacular and the cruise was so relaxing and I would definitely consider booking again in the future.
- Bethan, 10/05/2025 14:21, Travelled in a Couple
The Sail Croatia itinerary and guides were top notch. There was a fun plan touring our daily destination by bike, with lots of free time. Our guides were so helpful and informative of local culture, history and dining experiences. The boat was clean & luxurious. The onboard meals were fantastic, staff were friendly and accommodating. I highly recommend Sail Croatia, I will be returning for another adventure!
- Anne, 09/05/2025 13:15, Travelled in a Couple
What a wonderful week facilitated by our great guides Mate and Lola. They provided great knowledge of the areas we visited and safely navigated us through our hikes. The crew on the ship were very helpful, friendly and courteous providing excellent service and care.The menu:- outstanding. Thank you

Awesome trip What an amazing time we had on Emanuel with 29 on board. Our guides Josko and Ana were brilliant and passionate about their country and history which was shared with us at stops along the way. Great crew and Ben our waiter/bar tender is an amazing young man who worked non stop to make sure everyone was fed and watered. The meals George produced were great. The whole trip was amazing, E-bikes the best, cycling the islands an experience not to be missed and great company of the other 27 passengers. This trip is up there as one of the better holidays we have had. We'll certainly recommend it to others. Thanks for a memorable holiday.
- Tony and Anne, 06/05/2025 15:35, Travelled in a Couple
The crew on MS Emanuel were fantastic. The captain owns the boats d you can really tell in the way he personally runs the ship as well as in the crew he has hired. Perhaps even more notable were our guides. Our lead guide, Jobsko was really great. You can feel his leadership from the first time he speaks to address the group. He was great at the cycle route planning and nimble execution to respond to issues along the route. He always had everyone’s safety and comfort top of mind. He explained everything clearly and answered all questions until everyone was clear and ready. Josip was also paired with a second guide who is working her way up. It was great to see him mentoring her and giving her the opportunity to lead and get the experience and confidence she needs to move up. As a team the entire crew a d guides worked well together and with all needed communications to ensure the guests had the best trip possible. M

Our Cycling Croatia Cruise with Sail Croatia exceeded our expectations from the quality of the boat and bikes, the professional staff and our exceptional guides. Tonka was our lead and her communication and preparedness made each of our rides enjoyable and rewarding. We had fun, laughs and met so many wonderful people, it could not have been better. Thank you for the memorable experience.
- Sheila, 06/05/2025 01:38, Travelled in a Couple
Firstly Josko and Ana created a fun, informative, considerate and expertly supported experience. We felt extremely secure in their leadership. Secondly the whole group were inclusive, fun and we very quickly felt like we had known each other forever. Thirdly the Captain Ante and crew who were all so friendly and helpful, made sure our holiday was smooth and comfortable, with lots of swim stops and perfect timing. And finally the scenery, rides,and weather were all breathtaking ( literally as I was on an analogue bike !!) A truly life changing experience - would definately recommend . Thank you .

We were lucky with two things: first there were only seven of us on our cruise which made it feel like a group of old friends. Second was our tour guide Dino. Always happy. Very informative and could not have been more helpful. He was the main reason for our highly successful cruise.

The beautiful ship Olimp, the crew and best of all our guide Dino. He was our ideal guide, friendly, knowledgeable, fantastic sense of humour, always there for us. The places we docked Dino was there always to provide all the places we wanted to see and eat. Sail Croatia gave us the best holiday of our lives in a very beautiful country. Thankyou.

The yacht is beautiful, the staff amazing, food, delicious, well organized, great cruise director, Dino, all islands we stopped in, were beautiful, and Dino insured that we saw and did everything we should do and each and every stop. Dino kept us well informed, and was such a pleasure to travel with. All of the crew on the Olympic were a pleasure to travel with
- Kristy, 29/04/2025 07:02, Travelled in a Couple
The crew on our boat was amazing. It was our very first cruise of any kind. We ran into some nasty weather and they did their best to make the best of the situation. Our shower door, however, would not stay closed during the rough seas and it kept banging against the wall and we were afraid the glass would break. We finally put suitcases in front to hold it still. My only “complaint” would be that we were told we needed to be off the ship at 9 in the morning. Our flight was not until afternoon and it being Easter.. all the luggage storage places were closed. A number of people were allowed to stay on until 10:30 and that would have make a huge difference for us. We would have eaten a much bigger breakfast instead of thinking we could find a decent breakfast in town while toting our suitcases. However.. This was the only down side . I would highly recommend this company as the overall experience was wonderful. We had a great crew and fellow passengers.

Hi Jan, Thank you so much for your kind 5 Star review and for choosing to travel with us on our Elegance cruise! We're absolutely delighted to hear that you had a wonderful experience and that you'd recommend Sail Croatia to others — that means the world to us. We really appreciate your feedback regarding the check-out time. We do ask guests to disembark by 9am to allow our crew time to prepare for the next arrivals at 11am, we completely understand that an early start can be a bit of a challenge, especially after a relaxing week on board. We'll continue to ensure this process is as smooth and stress-free as possible. We hope to welcome you back on board again soon for another unforgettable adventure!
Beautiful boat & great crew!

The sailors took pride in their ship, always on top of their responsibilities. Our room was comfortable as advertised, staff friendly. Anita our hostess engaged with all her passengers, always eager to help. Our trip was delightful, swimming spots and beautiful ports to dock in. Wonderful country to explore with delicious food. Very fortunate to have had the loveliest travellers to make our holiday exceptional.

We had the best time on the Olimp especially having a great tour guide, Ionna. The only thing I would have liked changed was to have coffee and tea readily available. Thanks for a wonderful holiday and very memorable.

We went on the 7 day wine cruise, where we got to experience different Croatian wines and a different island every day. The food was fantastic and every meal was delicious. The staff were friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the daily swim stops and the whole cultural experience. The rooms were spacious and we had our own ensuite. We both thoroughly enjoyed our cruise and would definitely recommend this as an enjoyable, relaxing and culturally holiday experience.
- Catherine , 22/10/2024 05:56, Travelled in a Couple
The Elegance cruise aboard the Olimp was such a delight! The holiday was effortless and the onboard food an absolute standout. Our tour guide was very entertaining, helpful and always available. The swim stops were a highlight for me. The cabin was roomy and the Olimp is beautifully maintained by a committed crew. I’d go again in a heartbeat!
- Maureen, 22/10/2024 04:30, Travelled in a Couple
My husband and myself signed up for this cruise with 5 other friends and we had a fantastic time. The Olimp is very clean, well maintained and comfortable. The crew was awesome- Ioana was an organized and fun cruise director who kept us informed and provided great recs for each stop of our cruise. This was our first time on a cruise and we found that the size of the ship and number of guests was just perfect. We enjoyed getting to know other guests on the cruise. Sail Croatia did an excellent job of communicating before the cruise as well.

I had researched quite a few small ship cruise lines before booking, and I'm so glad we went with Sail Croatia! We sailed the Explorer cruise Split to Dubrovnik on The Salve di Mare, which was the most beautiful boat, with the rooms being generously sized and very well appointed (we were in the lower deck and even had a double vanity in our ensuite!) The Captain and his crew were reliable and friendly. Our cruise director Vicko was nothing short of amazing, being generous with his time and also his knowledge and assistance. We really enjoyed the daily Destination speech learning so much about the history of each please we were heading to. We did have to make a couple of itinerary changes due to port issue and weather, but it did not detract from any of our trip, if anything it meant we got to be first people of the day into the Blue caves! The food far exceeded our expectations, and as is with Croatia, always very generous servings! I would not hesitate to recommend Sail Croatia!
- Lee, 17/10/2024 05:19, Travelled in a Couple
This was a trip we had anticipated and looked forward to for almost a year. Traveling with lifetime friends, this was the last week of a 3 week Croatian experience. The ship Esperanza was lovely and so well maintained. Our cabins were adequate and spacious as ships go. The beds were great!!! Our crew and cruise director Ivana could not have been more helpful. The daily briefings ,and restaurant recommendations prior to making port were so helpful and much appreciated . It was everything we hoped and more.

We had a fabulous time meeting people from several countries. The Princess Diana was clean and comfortable and the guides and crew were friendly, knowledgeable and very welcoming. The daily schedule allowed for cycling, exploring the towns and either relaxing or swimming. There was plenty to eat and the food was well prepared and quite good overall. We learned about Croatian history, customs and culture from our extremely knowledgeable guides who made us feel that we were welcome guests in their country. The e-bike s were good quality and easy to get used to. I would recommend this tour to anyone at a reasonable level of fitness. Some rides were strenuous, but well worth the effort. Bravo Sail Croatia, well done!!
- Laurel, 15/10/2024 19:42, Travelled in a Couple
The Olimp was a beautiful ship with a warm and professional crew. The other passengers also helped make the experience fun and memorable. Top the vacation off with the stunningly beautiful country of Croatia and the friendly people and you have a magical combination. We enjoyed seeing ports that the large cruise ships do not get to stop. We loved that there were only 36 passengers on the Olimp, and we got to know all of our shipmates. Airport transports were seamless! Accommodations, meals, and service were all superb. We felt safe and well cared for, so that all our focus was on enjoying the time on the ship and in the various ports. We would definitely book again with Sail Croatia.
- Mary, 15/10/2024 10:59, Travelled in a Couple
The wine tours were fabulous, staff and service and the cruise director, Karla, were all wonderful. The meals were delicious! The excursions were great, except for the wine dinner in Korcula ( too crowded, and food quality was poor). Areas needing improvement: fly swatters for each cabin( (we had a fly in our room the entire time). A better coffee machine ( coffee was terrible),, and two keys per room are needed.

Enjoyed the cycling and swimming as well as the company of the other clients. We developed a real comraderie along with our two amazing guides and crew. There was much fun and laughter despite a very professional approach by the crew. Both guides had excellent knowledge of the islands and Croatia, making for some very interesting talks and discussions. Sailing gave an interesting and varied overview of the country. Advise bringing sand shoes for stony beaches

This was our first cruise and we weren't sure what to expect. It was so fun and relaxing! We met lots of fun people and enjoyed each stop. Our tour manager, Dino, could not have been better. He had lots of fun energy and went out of his way to help and answer questions or give suggestions. The staff in the bar/dining room were also fantastic. And, the boat was beautiful and comfortable. We will recommend this cruise to friends.
