This was my first time doing a trip of this type, and I’m hooked. I only hope that my future trips will compare to how well Sail Croatia did. From the quality of food while on the boat to its staff to the wonderful tour guides, there was nothing to complain about! This all fostered an environment where you genuinely got to know the others on the trip with you, and became fast friends. It was a sad event when the trip was over and we all had to go out separate ways.

The cruise ship was lovely and is very well maintained by the Captain and crew. We were made to feel very welcome by both the Sail Croatia guides, Dora and Sanja, and all the crew of the ship Emanuel Everyone looked after us incredibly well and the guides were fun, energetic and very helpful. Going with a group of friends was great fun but we all bonded well with the other passengers on the trip and the dynamic was positive and very friendly. It felt like one big , happy family. I would definitely travel with Sail Croatia again. Some of the hills are quite steep for cycling even though the distances are not huge (Split to Dubrovnik). On a normal bike the hills were sometimes challenging in the heat. We travelled in early June and the sun was already hot. The islands are lovely and the views from the top of the hills, once you reach the top are beautiful. It was a great holiday.

This was my first international trip, and the sail/cycle experience exceeded every expectation in every way. I don’t have much to compare it to, but Sail Croatia seems to have perfected their operations in such a way as to give each traveler the best experience possible. First, the Mali Ante was a wonderful vessel…clean and comfortable. From there it just gets better. The crew…seriously I wish I could have brought them all home with me. They were PHENOMENAL. The chef and his staff provided wonderful culinary delights, and were so accommodating with dietary issues. Amazing. The crew managing the galley and bar….OUTSTANDING! I adored them all. The best part…our cycle guides Miranda and Tonka…they were just amazing. I hadn’t been on a bike in over 10 years, and had little experience compared to the others in the group…and they were so helpful and supportive. The rides were challenging for me, but the support was amazing. I have no idea how I will top this experience. 🫶🏼🇭🇷🫶🏼

Loved everything about the trip: the rides, the scenery, the food, the guides, Rides were just the right length and difficulty. Would highly recommend.

Beautiful cycling trip through the Adriatic Sea and Croatian coast and islands, including refreshing swims. Cycling was challenging but good fun. Our guides Miranda and Tonka were fantastic and looked after us very well. They had a great sense of humour and we enjoyed the ‘stories’ on each ride. We were well fed on the Mali Ante and enjoyed great hospitality from the crew. We were a group of 14 and all got on so well and had lots of laughs.

A fantastic holiday. Dora, Sanya and the boat crew looked after us so well. Great combination of cycling, swimming and beautiful scenery. Our first time in Croatia but we will definitely be back.

We had the most amazing time. The boat crew were amazing and friendly and very tentative. Halim our waiter did an exceptional job. Our guides Marin and Andro were amazing. Marin and Andro made sure we were safe at all times. Thier attention to our safety was imperative. Marin is so knowledgeable about his country and we learned so much about the history of Croatia and all the islands we visited. He was an excellent guide and we would request him if we do this tour again! The best and most memorable trip we have ever been on. The only critique I have is 2 pillows for the bed would have been nice and more or better wine selections. Thank you Sail Croatia!!

We loved our week away with sail Croatia . It was all we were expecting plus more . The bike riding was amazing with a beautiful itinerary . We took normal bikes and it was quite challenging , If you are going in the warmer months strongly consider a ebike as the hills are hard in the heat . We loved anchoring in quiet blue coves and swimming . The crew and guides were fantastic . Thank you esp to Josip and Tashi our fabulous tour guides . We also loved meeting and traveling with like minded people from all over the world - we really had a lot of fun together . The cabins and ship was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed .

We just got off the Split to Dubrovnik itinerary on the Emanuel with our EXCEPTIONAL CREW, WONDERFUL CAPTAIN Anto, FANTABULOUS GUIDES Dora and Sanya, and enjoyed the experience with a group of wonderful new friends as we cycled our way through beautiful scenery! We travel a lot and the 4 of us felt it was one of our best trips ever! We were also absolutely spoiled with our chef as the food was outstanding! We are HOOKED on cycling holidays now! Highly recommend and give the experience a 5/5 stars!!! Thank you!!! 🥰

Beautiful scenery, clear blue sea, unspoilt islands. Good food on the boat, great cycling (but make sure you upgrade to E Bikes!), A lot of fun and a perfect way to spend a week.

1. Sanja and Dora were Fantastic! They made an amazing team. They were both very engaged with we clients, very animated, very thoughtful and knowledgeable. They both clearly love their job and enjoy working with each other,, which adds to the experience. 2. The captain and crew of the Emanuel - also Fantastic. They were very attentive to our needs. They were also very engaging and enjoyable to talk with. 3. This was a total luck of the draw, but the other passengers we traveled with really made the whole trip amazingly enjoyable. Everyone enjoyed everyone else and there was no drama! Overall a wonderful trip which we will repeat!!

The Mali Ante crew & our two tour guides worked hard to make our trip the success it was. We cannot thank them enough. The food was generous & of a high standard.
- Paul, 16/06/2025 05:26, Travelled in a Couple
Our Sail Croatia vacation was among the very best of our lives! An ideal mix of activity, relaxation and site seeing. Sailing to a new island each day, a swim in the Adriatic, a bike tour, time to relax then open time to visit the local town, dine and return to the ship at our leisure. Guides were truly excellent, crew were friendly and very accommodating, ship was beautiful and comfortable, bikes were great quality. I cannot recommend this trip more highly!

The Crew on Eos were professional & fulfilled their roles with friendliness & care. In addition the cycling crew had safety in mind all the time whilst also recognising & catering for different abilities. Jošco was very knowledgeable & informative with local history, nature & the geography of the islands which made our holiday so much more interesting.during the daily cycles. We appreciated the stops for coffee & a swim during the rides. Lovre dealt with a life threatening medical emergency with maturity & calmness whilst also resolving a random conflict with a stranger. Jošco dealt with the logistics of the medical incident with professionalism & care to those involved. Two outstanding employees. I was surprised the cycling crew were not given the cycling ability information we had all submitted - this would have helped them have knowledge prior to our arrival.
- Helen, 14/06/2025 07:04, Travelled with Friend/s
Perfect weather! Beautiful boat with excellent staff, nothing was too much trouble.. Excellent food, various diets catered for, and a good range of drinks! But best of all was where we were … from Dubrovnik to Split we anchored in islands of such beauty and grace, so much history and interest and terrific cycle riding with excellent guides - I honestly didn’t want to leave.. Without a doubt I will be returning, with Sail Croatia!!!
- Kate, 13/06/2025 18:21, Travelled with Friend/s
This was a 5 star holiday from start to finish. We had the perfect balance of exercise and free time to relax. The boat and cabins were spacious and comfortable. Lucy & Harris served us the most delicious breakfast & 3 course lunches every day. Our lead guide Josko was amazing! He gave us a daily briefing on the route and was highly organised. I felt so safe while biking on the roads, nothing was left to chance. Josko had so much local knowledge and gave us a taste of Croatian history. We learned about this beautiful country while cycling through some of the most panoramic views I've ever seen. One thing I will say was that any request my group had was accomadated immediately. I fell in love with Croatia and it's people. We are already planning our next trip. I highly recommend Sail Croatia, just do it!!! Nessa Darcy

We were a large group of 8 couples- our ship Eos was a perfect size to cater for us and other guests. Very comfortable cabins and large social spaces. The food was very good and the staff very attentive. We booked the cycling trip - the bikes were a good quality and we loved exploring the various islands on our bikes each day - all very well led by our excellent tour manager Joške. Highly recommend!
- Genevieve , 13/06/2025 07:34, Travelled with Friend/s
The entire Mali Anti crew and guides were wonderful. The boat was clean, comfortable, with plenty of room. The sailing itinerary and cycling were extremely well planned out. The food was excellent and more than what could have been expected. Other guests were quite friendly and fun to be with. We were fortunate to have really good weather for sailing, cycling, and wandering at every stop. Everyone on the crew seemed to go above and beyond to make our experience great. This included the captain (Ivica), the sailors (Ivan and Ilija), the waiter (Mario - he was exceptional), the chef (Ivica - who was truly wonderful) and helper (Antonio). The two guides Miranda and Ana were outstanding throughout our entire trip. (Suggestions - the rooms could have a few more hooks to hang things on and the mirrors in the bathrooms need to be lowered about 6 inches)
- Bob, 13/06/2025 03:24, Travelled with Friend/s
This cycling cruise was the BEST ever. I loved the quaintness of the smaller cruiseship & the crew was wonderful. Our cycle guides Luciya & Ivan P were personable, knowledgeable about Croatia & its history, super fun and safety was always a priority. Our passenger group really bonded from the beginning & I now have new friends around the world I can go visit & keep in touch with. Go For It & take a Sail Croatia Cruise
- Denise, 12/06/2025 22:49, Travelled with Friend/s
The staff on the ship were so great and patient with a group of "old" ladies. The food was fabulous! Because I wake up so early, the chef always offered to get me some tea even if it was 2 hours before the kitchen opening. Our guides, Miranda and Anna were exceptional. On the 2nd day, I realized I wasn't going to be able to climb the hills and Miranda offered to give me her ebike. That isn't something that happens very often.

Brilliant trip in Croatia with Cruise and great cycling on the island hills and coast and awesome swim stops in crystal clear waters. The guides Ivan and Lucija were top rate with great cycling guidance and history and information on where we were. and we’re really friendly. The food was so tasty from chef Ivana (top class), and Andre was always on form and looking after us with our post ride refreshments. Christiana kept the boat management smooth and friendly, and Captain, and Sailors Randy and Ivan were super helpful. Thanks all for one of our great trips, and to all our new pals we shared it with. Tim and Paula.

The staff on board the Afrodita made our holiday so special. Lucija and Evan our guides were fantastic! They went above and beyond to make our all our time fun and enjoyable! They were professional and yet authentically friendly. We were so lucky. The crew, magnificent! Andre was a doll and helpful and attentive and our chef ….like Wow! All crew was friendly kind and worked hard to make us comfortable and safe. I loved the itinerary and our daily cycle time and challenges. I wish i had an upper cabin but it wasn’t available as i booked later than others. The e bikes were great. Thank you to all

From a captain and crew and our cycling guides, they went out of their way to make our trip and everyone else’s exceptional. I would recommend our trip to all of our friends and family and hopefully one day we can join you again for another trip.. You could also improve our experience with better coffee in the morning. Cheers

The whole e-bike sailing trip was a hit from the moment we arrived. The welcome from the crew, to the bar & kitchen crew and most importantly our guides for our ride each day. The food was exceptional and beautifully presented! Our guides were so helpful and their communication about our rides each day were clear and conscientious of making sure everyone understood were we would stop for a break or photo opportunity. Safety was key! It was a treat to have some challenging times on the bikes as we got to see some incredible views and scenery.. If you enjoy a bit of fitness with history and fun, I highly recommend this trip! So great full to all the staff and we also had amazing weather and our group was the best!

our trip was wonderful from start to finish . crew could not have been nicer and more helpful. Special thanks to Mario for his help in the dining room. The food and the chef were marvelous. Ana and Miranda were super helpful with our daily bike rides. Best cruise we have been on and we were sad to see it end. would definitely do this cruise again. if we could… This was a hard-working crew with great attention to detail and worked well together.. They all take pride in their work. A delight to be aboard the Mali Ante!!! A once in a lifetime experience and memory!!

Five stars to all the crew and guides in our tour. The friendliness and efficiency to make sure we were all taken care of in every need was amazing! The food on the boat was lovely. Learned a new favorite beer( Radler). First time e-bike and I was very glad. All help rendered as needed , from giving daily overview of day to end if day path. Captains dinner was amazing! I loved this format of sailing and biking as we saw sights that you would never see in a traditional bus tour. Thanks to all who made this possible!

We had a wonderful week on the Princeza Diana with our guides Calum and Josip. As guides, their styles were very different, but the combination complimented our group nicely. This vacation was the best way for us to enjoy all Croatia has to offer…. So much beautiful scenery, flowers, and history. Cruising along on our e-bikes was a sensory over-load in the best possible way. The worse thing about the week was that it had to end.

Wonderful Guides: josip and Calem, Princess Diana Boat and awesome Group. We loved the rides each day. Views were amazing. There were some days with a bit of elevation which made the bike climbs extra sweet with unexpected views.. Guides were great at prepping us for the day and helping those that needed assistance. The boat was clean and spacious. The best part were the new friends we made from around the world. Loved our week..

The biking leaders Ana and Miranda were just fabulous, not only leading us on beautiful rides, but ensuring everyone was together and safe. We were also looked forward to Ana's daily stories. The entire crew cheerfully made sure we were well fed and taken care of. The only negative I have is that while none of our group smoked, cigarette smoke entered our cabins through vents. That should be addressed.

After doing a bare boat charter around Turkey years ago, we wanted to do same in Croatia, however as keen cyclist was saw the perfect blend of boating and cycling in what Sail Croatia offered … and without all the hassle of a bare boat. The crew and cycle guides were first class … hats off to all. Thanks for the memories.

I highly recommend Sail Croatia!

Our bike leaders Matilda and Srjon were amazing. The group of people ( smaller group). We became like a family on board. Keno was so pleasant serving, a real gentleman. The kitchen cooks so cheerful and accommodating. The captain of course got us safely to all our stops and then of course Mr muscles, the deck hand, hoisted all those bikes up and down. Always pleasant. Great crew. Bonnie
