Better than we anticipated. The staff, guides, locations, rides, bikes and people on the cruise were all fantastic. Would do it again in a heartbeat. A definite must do if you love exploring beautiful places

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.

The cycling, the crew, the food and the rest of the guests were all fabulous! We were on Classic bikes, which was challenging at times however that's what we wanted! Scenery was beautiful and every day brought more fun and enjoyment. Would definitely repeat the whole thing!!

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

We have traveled all over and this was tge best vacation ever. Sail Croatia was so organized from start to finish. The boat, the crew, the meals and all the other guests....excellent! The bike rides were amazing and all the islands were so beautiful. We will be back!

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.

Great boat and crew, excellent food and amazing bike routes and guides - made for an awesome time.

We had an incredible experience with Sail Croatia! The cycle guides (Andro and Lovre) and boat crew (Lucia, Valentina, and all cooks and staff) were helpful, attentive to detail, and made us all feel right at home in a new country. We had a few weather shifts that meant we had to pivot the original itinerary a bit and I couldn't be more impressed with how they made that feel seamless for us passengers. We enjoyed the daily cycling routes and the food provided on the boat was outstanding, too. My only feedback would be to provide swimming towels (those are a pain to pack, let's be honest) and shower soap in the bathrooms! Thank you for an amazing trip!

The food variety/cooking quality. While the rides were spectacular and the guides entertaining and informed, I found the meat and fish generally overcooked and bland. The fresh fruit and salads were enjoyed - but more of the soups would be good as well The breakfasts could be improved with less repetition. I was also surprised at the minimal seafood offerings, given the location.

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.

Everything about the e-cycling/sailing trip was a wow. The sights, the bike, the people, the food. It was all fantastic. Croatia is a stunning country-and very hilly. The e-bikes worked perfectly, for an occasional cycler, I had no problems and didn't mind the hills at all. We had some weather to contend with and the crew pivoted quickly and very professionally. Finding last minute ports, bike rides and great experiences and places to dine. We stayed above deck and would recommend that. Also got bike shorts and glad we did, we were comfy all week long. If you are thinking about this, just do it. It was an unforgettable experience.
- stephanie, 13/10/2025 18:54, Travelled in a Couple
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
Just a really great way to see coastal Croatia. The boat gave us a clean and comfortable base for bicycling. The roads were consistently hilly, but the e bikes were up to the task. I had mine on high power for most of the rides and never ran out of juice. We agreed that we might have handled the hills without e bikes, but it would have been way less fun! Our weather in October was cool for swimming, but worked well for biking, even though the Borro winds were blowing. The staff was professional, the on board food was delicious, and the villages we visited were clean and interesting.
- Cleo, 13/10/2025 17:08, Travelled in a Couple
We had an incredible week sailing and cycling from Dubrovnik to Split with Sail Croatia! The route was stunning, the e-biking experiences were well-organized, and the landscapes were unforgettable. The Sail Croatia team overall was professional and ensured everything ran smoothly — big thanks to the guides and crew who made the adventure memorable. That said, we felt the dining crew could have been a bit more friendly and approachable. While everything was handled efficiently, a warmer, more engaging attitude would have made mealtimes even more enjoyable. Overall, it was a fantastic experience and a unique way to see the Croatian coast — highly recommend the tour, and we hope to see continued improvements in hospitality on board.
- Sheila Marie , 13/10/2025 14:46, 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
We just finished our 8 day ride Sail Croatia trip & it was fabulous……on so many levels!. Firstly the staff were fantastic, They looked after us all superbly whether sailing our boat in rough seas, serving up endless delicious meals & keeping us safe on the bikes …….they were nothing short of superb. We loved our “active time” with Tonka & Ana, seeing the various villages & landscapes, hearing the history of Croatia & challenging our fitness levels & then some “down time” before exploring the villages. It was a great mix of activity & relaxation. From 2 very recreational riders we loved the cycling. And lastly, our group! We had sooo many laughs & it was special to connect with 28 “new friends” from all parts of the world. Thank you Sail Croatia “A” Team
- Anna, 13/10/2025 07:01, 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.

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.
- Peter, 13/10/2025 03:59, Travelled in a Couple
Everything was well laid out and organized daily. The staff were professional and friendly. We felt safe and appreciated ,and as a result we were well taken care of morning to night.
- Dianna, 10/10/2025 22:46, 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
Well organised. Great crew. A wonderful, friendly and like minded group. Delicious food. Cycling routes were fantastic.

Our trip started in Dubrovnik where we joined our Sail Croatia boat. Communication about the departure information was clear. We’d arrive a couple of days early to explore the Old city which was a good move as there’s plenty to see. We found it very clean and the locals friendly. A lot of cruise ships arrive into major cities which does lead to a lot of other tourists about. Once we joined our boat and sailed off to our first island with our friendly adventurers, calm resumed. Croatia is surprisingly mountainous but with most of us on sturdy e-bikes that wasn’t a problem. Five of the 32 guests were using regular bikes but all were strong cyclists and powered up the inclines. Cycling through olive groves and vineyards as well as through ancient villages was a real pleasure to complement grinding up a mountainous road to the lookout at the top. Early Oct weather was a little chilly but the sun shone several days and no rain. I did get a few mossie bites. Food on board was good.
- Jennie, 10/10/2025 06:51, Travelled in a Couple
The staff! Ivica and Sonja, our guides, were fabulous! I would give them 10 stars if I could!!!! Couldn’t have asked for better. Clearly they love their jobs and love people! They gave wonderful recommendations. Excursions they offered were amazing, being immersed in their culture. The food was excellent. Just trouble keeping food warm, which is understandable on a boat. Chef was top notch. Food allergies were handled nicely. Wait staff and sailor and other staff couldn’t have been kinder and more helpful. On the biking tours, I recommended that no photo taking while biking should be a strict rule. Very dangerous for biker taking photos as well as other bikers in the group!! Boat needed some updating. Cabins were clean but very small. We would totally book another tour, maybe on another bigger boat. Thank you to everyone who made our tour so wonderful!!

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
This was my first time in Croatia traveling with my husband and another couple from the US. The cruise was above and beyond my expectations. The food was outstanding. We had hot breakfasts and 3 courses for lunch every day. Our guides Jasco and Ana were both amazing. The bike rides were all well planned but there were some changes due to weather, which they improvised very well.. Both of the guides emphasized safety first . This was a great way to see Croatia and a few of the beautiful islands. I would highly recommend this cruise to someone looking for an active and fun vacation.
- Becky, 07/10/2025 17:28, Travelled in a Couple
The guides were great. Even at the end of summer they were upbeat and fun. The islands of Croatia a a perfect location for a sail and bike vacation.
- Cecilia , 06/10/2025 15:11, 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.

The entire staff was very attentive to everyone's needs and were personable. They all shared historical information about places they were from and had great suggestions on what to do at every destination.
- David, 03/10/2025 16:49, Travelled in a Couple
Every aspect of this trip was unbelievable. The ship and crew were top notch. The food was fantastic! But probably the most exciting part was the bike tours of the islands. Both Marin and Mario were extremely knowledgeable and kept us informed of what we were seeing. The riding was beautiful. Swimming was excellent! The tours were informative.All while guiding us safely from place to place. But the star of the show was Croatia itself. I can’t wait to return!

We planned an entire European holiday (from Australia) around this trip. From the moment we boarded Emanuel to the time we disembarked we were having the time of our lives. The boat is immaculate and has everything we needed for the week of sailing. Its crew are exceptional and ensured every need of every passenger was met. A special shout out to George, the chef. Every meal someone else cooks for me is hugely appreciated, but George went above and beyond to serve delicious 3 and 4 course meals, tailored to our dietary requirements. Every day (except our boarding day ex-Dubrovnik) we cycled a new and exciting place. All routes were suitable for all levels of experience, scenic and fun. We opted for e-bikes, which proved to be a great idea. I mean, we were on holidays after all. The cycling guides are knowledgeable and careful, without spoiling the fun. If you’re thinking about booking this, take our advice and go for it. You won’t regret it and we may see you there! J & J September 25

My wife and I sailed on the Princeza Diana and were absolutely thrilled with everything about the cruise. The cabins were well appointed, clean and up-to-date. The food was excellent, with a wide variety to choose from at breakfast. The lunches went above and beyond and were much more like a full dinner. The crew were always friendly and helpful and Miranda and Sanya were outstanding guides. Few of the reviews said much about the cycling, so we wanted to give a more detailed review. We're both 60 and trained for 6 months prior, riding over 900 miles. If you plan to ride a regular bike, you will need to train: the hills on Hvar and Vis are no joke, with climbs of 6 mi on Hvar and two climbs of 4 mi on Vis. While very difficult, they were very rewarding and the views were spectacular. The other 5 days were much easier in comparison. In total for the week we rode 102 miles with 8,000 ft of elevation. The bikes were excellent, the seats were comfortable, but bring a bag for the rack.
- Jeff, 29/09/2025 22:45, Travelled in a Couple
The boat crew and guides were friendly and caring. The rides were varied and with informative talks during the rests. The swimming was fabulous and the catering to a good and nutritious standard. Fortunately, the weather played along too. As a 70-year old couple travelling on our own, we enjoyed meeting and interacting with people of our own age and similar fitness. Do remember to bring along a swimming towel.
- Lindsay, 29/09/2025 12:35, Travelled in a Couple
It really was a great trip, Marin and Mario were exceptional. They covered all the bases for having a safe and worry, free experience, very professional. Personally, I could’ve used a little bit longer routes to cycle and myself and a few others felt the last cycle stop was a little risky getting on and off the boat. I’m off to extend my journey and vacation, but I think that this part of it’s gonna be the best of everything overall Thanks, John.

I must say the fellow passengers made the week even better than expected. Although the Sail Croatia crew were fantastic. Food on board was plentiful and beautiful, the Chef was outstanding. Our Cycle guides were great , friendly, helpful and fun to be with. Overall my wife and I were so glad we booked the cruise I would recommend it to everyone..
- Peter, 29/09/2025 10:15, Travelled in a Couple
We like to be active when we travel and the boat/bike Sail Croatia trip through the Croatian Island was the perfect combination of activity/sightseeing and fun. The personal touch of our 2 guides: Josko and Sanja was second to none. The crew on the boat did a great job as well. Food and drinks (except maybe the coffee) far exceeded my expectations. All around a fantastic trip. We felt well taken care of at all times and I will definitely recommend Sail Croatia to anyone looking for this type of vacation.
- Jamie, 29/09/2025 08:44, Travelled in a Couple
Excellent biking guides kept our group well informed and entertained while exploring six of the Croatian islands over seven days of rides. They also provided good restaurant recommendations for dinner at various ports. One day was stormy and our ride cut short but we sheltered safely and rode back to the boat after the rain subsided, all good…. Our group of 30 riders turned out to be very compatible and fun loving, no complainers!! The Captain’s dinner and subsequent party on board was a lot of fun. The crew was vey pleasant and helpful during the entire voyage.
- Pete, 29/09/2025 07:42, Travelled in a Couple
The guests, guides and crew were all fabulous and really made this holiday a cherished experience. Like minded active individulas cycling over the Croatian Islands. Spectacular sights and loads of fun. The crew was very attentive and the breakfast and lunches were really good too. Thank you for a fantastic experience and wonderful memories.
- Carmen, 29/09/2025 05:51, Travelled in a Couple
I knew this trip would be great but it exceeded my expectations. I never rode an E bike before just mountain biked but felt very comfortable on both dirt roads and roads with cars. A wonderful way to enjoy the scenery which was exquisite. Could have rode a little further on some days but did appreciate having a day to explore on our own. Both Andro and Tony and the rest of the staff were so nice and very knowledgeable and helpful. The weather was perfect and sailing between the islands was smooth and very relaxing. The boat was nice and clean and room accommodations were comfortable. We were pleasantly surprised to come back from our ride half way through the trip and bedding and towels were changed out. I will without a doubt recommend this trip to friends. We also had a great group of other passengers that we enjoyed meeting.
- Andrea, 28/09/2025 17:54, Travelled in a Couple
The guides were very good, knowledgeable about all the Locations that we visited. helpful and friendly all the time .The food was below average and we were hoping for a lot better. Although the rooms were small they were ok but they were damp and clothes and bed sheets damp even with ac on. I would still recommend, but on a different boat with a different chef
- Brian , 28/09/2025 15:30, Travelled in a Couple
Very well organised by lovely leaders and support crew. Comfy boat cabin. Beauty all around us on the Adriatic as well as on the islands. Great bikes and rides with excellent views for our efforts (little on the electric bikes!) and the thought of a cold beer and a lovely three-course meal and an amazing swim to look forward to. Then a choice of quality restaurants to choose from for dinner. Met many lovely fellow bikers. All together, a most wonderful holiday.
- David, 28/09/2025 12:02, Travelled in a Couple
Great trip, nice way to see the coast and islands of Croatia. I am avid cyclist and in great shape. The mileage distances are deceiving very short distance but every where is up from the boat where you start cycling. The climbs are steep and not so short. The E Bike is a much better way to go. The guides do an excellent job of helping the entire groups on the rides. Staff of the boats are amazing and they work very hard to keep everybody happy. I would recommend this trip.
- Paul, 28/09/2025 08:26, Travelled in a Couple
We thoroughly enjoyed our trip on board Colombo. There was a perfect combination of cycling, boating, swimming and relaxation. The staff were extremely polite and attentive, particularly Marin and Josip who were always approachable, helpful and fun! I look forward to doing another trip with Sail Croatia and recommending them to friends.
