The Split South Return hiking cruise on the Mali Luka was fantastic! The weather was perfect so that helped, and the boat was pleasant with the food onboard being outstanding. The staff were great leaders, knowledgeable, responsive, and high quality. Each day we hiked and swam in the sea. The hikes were challenging and scenic and so rewarding! I would take another Sail Croatia excursion again!

We had a fantastic time! The guides and crew were marvellous, the itinerary just right (taking in some fabulous, less touristy spots), and the food was exceptionally good. The balance between activity and leisure was also spot on. Great value for money, this trip exceeded all our expectations. We met some lovely people and made great memories that will stay with us. Thanks Sail Croatia ❤️

I had a great holiday with Sail Croatia! Ema and Ilona were fabulous guides for our hikes and adventures in town. They were always proving amazing insights and suggestions. The crew of our ship were amazing and made sure we had all we needed and a great sailing trip.

- Lynn, 05/09/2026 13:05, Travelled with Friend/s

Lovely boat, crew and leaders. But the weather was just too hot for hiking.

- Anonymous, 02/09/2026 19:45, Travelled in a Couple

This was a marvellous week helped hugely by the quality of the guides, Ilona and Ema, who were so professional, fun and informative. The crew on the boat were excellent too. Very friendly and helpful. The walks are graded moderate and are not that long but are hilly and the paths rocky. The heat made them feel harder than expected. It’s interesting to visit different islands and see how they have their own character, to travel without having to pack and unpack.

- Anonymous, 02/09/2026 19:28, Travelled in a Couple

The cruise was fabulous! Ilona and Ema were the best leaders - they were organized, informative, encouraging, approachable, friendly, and they had a great sense of humor. The trip had a nice balance of hiking (with options if you didn't want to do a particular hike), swim stops, group dinners in town, wine tasting, and suggestions of things to see and do at each stop. The ships' crew was also friendly and helpful. This was definitely one of the most memorable trips I've taken and highly recommend it!

- Deborah, 02/09/2026 19:27, Travelled with Friend/s

The Sail Croatia hiking trip ranks as one of my best ever vacation trips!! All of the Croatian islands were beautiful, our days were filled with stunning hikes, swim stops to cool off, beautiful harbors, good food and new friendships. Ilona and Ema brought such fun energy to the trip - they were the best!! The whole crew was amazing - top notch! I would recommend Sail Croatia to anyone looking for a fun, active vacation.

- Jennifer, 02/09/2026 19:03, Travelled with Friend/s

We had such a blast on our Sail Croatia holiday. Our adventures included boating around the stunning islands of Croatia, hiking to scenic vistas, walking historic walls, swimming and paddling in the bright blue sea, meeting new friends, enjoying local foods and experiencing the intense pride Croatia’s have for their culture and history. Coming home each day to our modest, cozy, air conditioned room was a treat. The food on board was very good. The capital and crew worked extremely hard to make our stay great. And our hiking guides became friends by the end. We bonded with our fellow boat mates who came from all across the world. It was the perfect blend of active adventure, beauty, history and relaxation, I would go again in a heartbeat.

- Jennifer, 02/07/2026 00:11, Travelled in a Couple

We really loved our guides (Hana and Mate). They were so pleasant and really organized. I felt well cared for.

First time cruising, and first time in Croatia. Absolutely loved everything about the country, people, Sail Croatia crew, staff, meals, and hiking guides. Would definitely recommend this cruise to other active people, Incredible views, swim stops and such great camaraderie with our fellow adventurers.. Highly recommend. Best way to see so many different islands.

- Karen, 22/06/2026 18:13, Travelled with Friend/s

We enjoyed 7 days of beauty, history, hiking, and wonderful service! The staff of Salve di Mare were top notch. Servers Marko and Vlaho, Housekeeper Julija, Representative Nikos, Trail Guide Illona, and Chef Bojan and Sous Chef Fani were all extraordinary. They were friendly, attentive, and well-organized. The deck hands kept everything ship shape, constantly cleaning or anticipating our next move. The daily breakfast buffet and 3-course lunch were top notch; thank goodness we were hiking so much!! Each day/port was amazing with the hikes, sightseeing, food, amazing Croatian history "lessons" from Nikos, incredible swim stops, and just feeling the breeze in our hair as we sailed each day. I recommend Sail Croatia's Luxury Hiking Cruise wholeheartedly. It more than met my expectations!

The sail and hike cruise was great and Natasha and Sasa were perfect in leading us on the hikes while providing history of Croatia along the way. Highly recommend!!

My cruise of the Dalmatian coast on the Salve di Mare was absolutely wonderful! I loved the hikes, swims in the Adriatic, exploring a new village or town at each stop, and just hanging out with the other passengers, who quickly became friends. The crew was warm and friendly and the service was excellent. Our tour guide Nikos and hike guide Ilona made every day a fun adventure. I would highly recommend this tour!

The Salve di Mare is a beautiful yacht. It does not have sails rigged, so "sailing" is a misnomer, but it was smooth and the food and atmosphere were lovely. The staff were very helpful. We enjoyed seeing the unspoiled islands as well as the busy, uniquely scenic cities of Dubrovnik and Split. The hikes were not too taxing. We would have liked to learn more about flora, fauna, and history along the way. The water is stunningly beautiful. The critique we have is that we were not told we might get portholes above our eye level, not windows, in the most expensive cabins (above deck). We would not have paid extra for these cabins, had we known.. I requested above-deck cabins because one of us is claustrophobic and the other needs to see the horizon to avoid seasickness. We could not see anything but the sky. Some guests did have cabins with windows. We booked quite early and did not know we might get stuck in a non-window cabin. It was disappointing to pay so much for no view.

We had a fantastic hiking cruise from Dubrovnik to Split (and many stops along the way). The trip was very well organized. The guide and crew were incredible. I highly recommend Sail Croatia.

- Sean, 01/06/2026 11:01, Travelled in a Couple

The scenery of sailing along the islands off Croatia is nothing short of breathtaking. The only thing that surpasses the view from the ship are the views from the hikes along the glistening sea, cozy harbor coves, and distant islands. This cruise offers the perfect blend of activities, including good hikes, floating in the sea, and lounging in the sun. Our tour guides were knowledgeable and accommodating. They covered everything from the terrain to Croatia’s rich history and the best-kept food secrets of locals on the islands. The ship was well-maintained, the cabins were comfortable, and the food was delicious. It was a really good vacation.

I had a week on the Salve De Marie cruise ship. From the moment I stepped on the boat I knew it was going to be amazing. The boat was beautiful, It was very clean and all the staff went out of their way to ensure the trip I had with my nine friends was absolutely brilliant. Sasha the tour guide and Mate our walking/trek guide were fantastic! The food was out of this world and the ten members of crew were a great team. I would definitely do this again. Loved the kayak, paddle boarding and swim stops every day. Definitely a holiday to remember! Thank you!

- Sue, 25/05/2026 14:15, Travelled with Friend/s

Mario and Matilda were amazing. They were personable and patient and they were attuned to our needs as hikers. The food was delicious and the Chef was delightful. We are vegetarians/pescatarian eaters and he was so very accommodating and creative. The hikes were lovely and challenged us but provided the most unbelievable vistas of Croatia. The ship, Mali Ante, was clean and stable due to the Captain's skill at maneuvering the ship. Special mention to Ivan in the dining hall. He was always pleasing and cheerful and his service was impeccable. Croatia is a beautiful country made more so by the staff of Sail Croatia. Thanks!

It was the perfect blend of relaxation on board and moderately challenging hikes. The Salve di Mare was spacious and comfortable, our cabin was cosy and well equipped, the food was amazing, and the crew were lovely. Our hiking guide and tour manager were excellent. It was a great holiday - not cheap, but worth the money.

- Sue, 24/05/2026 14:40, Travelled in a Couple

One of the best holidays I've had. Great location, super ship, wonderful crew and guides whose organisational skills made sure everything was very smooth. The ample and excellent food complimented the week. The best compliment is to say I'd love to do it all again.

An unforgettable trip! The sail & hike itinerary from Dubrovnik to Split was expertly led by Mate and Saša, whose love and pride for Croatia shone through every story and hike. They were informative, entertaining, and perfectly balanced. The islands were stunning with crystal-clear waters, charming villages, and breathtaking views from clifftop vantage points. On board, the food was fresh and generous, cabins surprisingly spacious and spotless, and the crew professional and welcoming throughout, with Marko and Vlaho taking excellent care of us all week. Will hopefully return to experience a different Sail Croatia itinerary!

- Kim, 20/05/2026 09:32, Travelled in a Couple

Had a fantastic week on Mali Ante with our guides Mario and Matilda who worked together professionally to manage our group. We had some challenging weather for our hikes which did cause some plans to change, but all was done with our safety and comfort in mind. I would highly recommend this 1 week sailing trip.

- Anonymous, 19/05/2026 15:23, Travelled in a Couple

It was a really good holiday. Mario and Matilda were excellent guides the crew the Cook and the Captain were really helpful and really good people. People the only fault I could find was most boats I’ve been on have free tea, coffee available and afternoon snacks the places us we visited and the hiking that we went on we made all the easier by the crew and the tour guides we both really enjoyed it. The tip situation where we were supposed to have a blank envelope so it was at Unknown what cabin the tips came from did not happen the envelope had everyone’s room number on and name. I really feel like this needs clarifying from yourselves as you have already said the staff are well paid and tipping is optional and the amounts that were suggested from yourselves for per person I believe for far too high and I believe no amount should be suggested i.e. top end or bottom end for tips as this is down to the individual of what they can afford without feeling pressurised this tainted the holida

An excellent week away on the hiking cruise. Such a well organised and fun week - Mate & Sase were great leaders. All the crew on the boat were so friendly and helpful. The food was delicious. The boat was so clean and well maintained. Everything was perfect!

My husband and I chose sail Croatia for our honeymoon and it was the perfect week. We did the northern split hiking route on the mali ante with Mario and Matilda and it was perfect! The crew was SO kind and truly just a joy to be around. Mario and Matilda work awesome as a team and made you feel like part of the group every single day. They are so kind and educated, and it’s obvious they love what they do. I cannot recommend those two enough as guides! I can only hope when we come back we get lucky enough to have the same team onboard. It was so much fun! The hikes were awesome. The swim spots were perfect. It was honestly the best week.

The crew aboard the Salve di Mare looked after us from start to finish with great attentivness and humour. The boat was beautiful and spacious and I loved watching the skillful captain bringing us in and out of port. Wonderful food- (how do they do that in such a small kitchen)?! And of course, the spectaclar scenery of Croatia- crystal clear waters, majestic mountains and the idyllic port villages and towns. And finally a special mention for our hiking guide, Mate and our customer care and everything else, Sasha. Both were excellent at their job and looked after us very well and with great humour, which I loved. A wonderful experience and great memories made.

This trip far exceeded our expectations. We knew the scenery and history along the Croatian Coastline was impressive but add to this a beautiful boat, wonderful crew and Sail Croatia reps and delicious food - what more could you want? We loved that you could find your own evening meal on shore and that you could join in the hiking or relax on board with a book. No pressure. Thank you to all for such a great relaxing and enjoyable trip.

Excellent holiday from start to finish. Mate & Sasa our hike & tour leads were brilliant - friendly, approachable & very knowledgable. Communication of information about the hikes, the history & the area were always spot on, the variety of hikes and locations we visited were amazing. Always felt safe & guided & had the best experience - fell in love with Croatia & its people. Salve di Mare is a beautiful boat, immaculately clean, great size rooms & very comfortable with plenty of space to move around. The food was amazing with a different 3 course lunch menu every day. Service in the bar & lounge from Marko & Vlaho was also excellent & we built up a great rapport with the whole team. We met a great crowd of people from across the world & have made some new forever friends. Would thoroughly recommend Sail Croatia.

Everything about our week with Sail Croatia more than met our expectations. The crew could not have been more knowledgeable, accommodating and above all else, friendly & caring. We had a few weather challenges (high winds and rain at the beginning ) but the captain and crew kept us safe and , on the spot made changes to our itinerary that ended up being fantastic!! My husband and I highly recommend Sail Croatia and are already talking about trying one of their bike cruises.

The fact that we have booked a sail/hike trip for the 3rd time in three years speaks for itself. I only have praise for the staff (both boat crew and hiking crew), the boat, the food, hiking destinations, swim stops, etc etc etc. And yes, we will be booking a 4th time.

The staff was amazing from the captain to Mario our bartender/meal server, the cooks the crew ans of course our two guides Lola and Natasha were awesome. They provided detailed info as to what were going to do, had a good pace on the hikes and adjusted the schedule on the fly. These two are great problem solvers as to moving hikes and islands when needed. While we all knew in general where and what we were going to do it was so nice not ever having to worry as to the planning We travel alot and both said one of our top vacations

The crew of the Mali Ante were first rate. From the captain to the assistant cook, everyone was friendly , helpful, attentive to our needs and very informative. The hikes were more challenging than expected, but our tour guides, Lola and Natasha made each trek enjoyable, informative and rewarding. After the hikes, the daily swim sessions were just what we needed. I would recommend this trip to any who enjoy beautiful scenery coupled with food, history and exercise.

They are both an asset to the Sail Croatia team. We also enjoyed the rest of the crew who made our trip hassle free and took care of everything we needed, not to mention the delicious meals our cook prepared for us every day.

Good food and fab table service from Mario. The captain and the whole team handled a change of itinerary due to poor weather really well. The only thing I would suggest is just about the jacuzzi. I have no problem with there not being a jacuzzi on board but on our cruise it was there but not filled up, so it wasn’t useable and took up space that could be used for more sun loungers and there are only about half as many loungers as there are guests.

This was a return cruise for me and my friend, we sailed the Split return route in September 2021, with only 7 guests on board the Mali Ante. This year we were 31 guests and sailed from Dubrovnik on the Mali Luka. Everything about our trip was exceptional and we had a wonderful adventure. Our fellow mariners, the crew, Natasha and Ilona our trusty guides and local experts, the weather, the food, Croatia!!! Everything was perfect. Thank you!

The crew of the Mali Luka and our amazing hike guides Natasha and Ilona were a great team. We were surprised to find out this was the first week those two young women had worked together as they did a wonderful job. All the hikes and the options were well thought out. The planned wine tasting and group dinner were really good ideas as was the captains dinner. All the meals were well prepared and bountiful. One of the best parts.was the camaraderie that developed among our fellow travelers which truly made the week extra special and it was hard to say our goodbyes when the week ended. This was our first trip with Sail Croatia but it definitely will not be our last.

First time to Croatia, and was so completely captivated by the country, beauty, and people. This ship and crew gave us an experience like no other....took us to spots that take your breath away. We had a great group and we enjoyed each other's company in the adventures. I experienced a knee problem just before the start of the trip so could not hike well like so many others, but my guide Elona always had options. Tashi gave us history and stories, and the food was amazing. This # of passengers is perfect, and I am telling everyone this treasure we got to be a part of , Thanks you for so many memories ❤️

We had a great trip. Sail Croatia was such a good choice for what we were looking for. We were welcomed to the boat “Columbo” by a great crew. It was very clean and had plenty of room. Loved sailing to the different islands, hiking, and best of all the swim stops. The water was warm and crystal clear. Meals were nice, Our hikes were led by Mate and Ante. They were fun, professional and shared so much information about Croatia and the villages on the islands. We made some good friends and loved the whole trip.

This was our very first cruise so we really didn't know what to expect, and lucky for us it couldn't have gone better! The friendly group of fellow passengers, the wonderful crew including the delighful cook and his tasty menu, and Ante & Mante our tremendous guides, all made our weeklong tour of the beautiful Croatian coast top notch. Ante was a wealth of information regarding history of the country, and Mante was an excellent hiking guide who kept a very close eye on everyone's condition to make sure we were all challenged but having fun too. Yes, the lower level cabin was cozy, but we didn't spend much time there other than sleeping so it really didn't matter.. Thumbs up to the closet space and surprisingly awesome shower water pressure! Thank you for a wonderful week of memories. Highly recommend Sail Croatia!

The hiking cruise was sensational — an ideal blend of adventure, scenery, and seamless planning. Each hike offered breathtaking views and just the right level of challenge: enough to feel accomplished but never overwhelming. The hikes provided spectacular views of Croatia’s coastal beauty. What truly elevated the experience were our guides, Mate and Hana. They were outstanding—knowledgeable, warm, and incredibly attentive. Whether it was sharing local insights, adjusting pace for the group, or simply bringing great energy to each day, they made the journey feel personal and memorable. The itineraries were fantastic, striking a perfect balance between structured activity and time to relax or explore. Every detail felt considered, from the timing of hikes to the onboard experience. Highly recommended for anyone looking to explore Croatia in a unique, active, and deeply rewarding way.

We loved Sail and hike around the islands with sail Croatia because it was so well organised, the staff were friendly the Guides set the pace of the hikes just right and the captain of the boat kept us safe every step of the trip.

This was a phenomenal adventure for my husband and I! We were on the hiking cruise aboard the Mali Ante. The daily hikes were challenging and stunning! Our hiking guide, Mate, shared his passion for Croatia along with his knowledge of the history and traditions of the islands. We had refreshing swim stops, great meals created by a fun chef, and we were surrounded by a happy / helpful crew. Being active while sightseeing beyond the touristy areas was rewarding and relaxing. It was better than I had hoped it would be! I absolutely encourage you to visit Croatia with 'Sail Croatia'!

My partner and I, along with family members and friends, took this trip. Great onboard atmosphere. The crew and dining service folks were great. Wonderful cuisine (always more than enough) provided by the onboard chef. The hikes were more challenging than I expected. I would like to have trained for hills, and tricky terrain in the heat. Our tour guides were very supportive, though. Would definitely recommend.

We sailed in June on the Dubrovnik return itinerary with family and friends, The week was very enjoyable. The crew on the Colombo were terrific. Great food, great service and we really enjoyed our time on the boat. Our Sail-Croatia guides Mate and Ilona were excellent.

The hikes were sometimes challenging (rocky, steep terrain), but there was great teamwork and we always ended with beautiful views. I have already shared many recommendations for this trip with family and friends. Thanks!

We just finished the Split/Return Hiking Tour. We were thrilled with the vacation. The Tour Leaders were personable and knowledgeable; the Cooks prepared Amazing food (and paid very close attention to my food allergies); and the Crew of the boat took very good care of us. The water was mostly very calm which was wonderful for swimming off the boat and on the beaches. This was my first time on a boat cruise, so I wasn't prepared for the smell of the bathrooms, but apparently this is normal. The weather was too hot for me to participate in most of the hikes, unfortunately, but I enjoyed swimming and sight-seeing in the towns while others were hiking. We went with a group of friends, AND enjoyed new friendships with the others on the boat. A very happy 7 days!

Fantastic week hiking in Sail Croatia. Great captain, Crew, and reps/guides. Would thoroughly recommend it

- Jo, 30/06/2025 20:03, Travelled with Friend/s

Our recent 7-day hiking cruise with tour leaders Mate and Ilona was fantastic. They were absolutely the best--so knowledgeable and friendly, and they knew how to set a crowd-pleasing pace for activities. Ilona offered to make dinner reservations at almost every port of call--so helpful. The ship was comfortable and well-maintained, and the crew were responsive and professional. The food was plentiful and tasty. We were with a large group of friends, and I think everyone in our group had a great time. My husband and I were able to complete all the hikes. Not everyone was able to. I think some guests would have benefited from having more info about the hikes when considering whether to book the trip--not just length of hike and elevation gain, but a bit about the technical aspects: e.g., gravel/scree, occasional boulder-scrambling, etc. Mate provided these descriptions the day of the hike, but having the info earlier might have been helpful. Overall, though, 5-stars all the way!

- Kelley, 25/06/2025 21:23, Travelled in a Couple

We had an outstanding week with Sail Croatia Hiking. Mate and Ilana went above and beyond to guide us through the beautiful country on this fun trip. We were celebrating our birthdays and it was such a great way to do so. The price was very reasonable and entire crew was excellent. Highly recommend this hiking adventure, especially with Mate and Ilana.

- Jennifer , 18/06/2025 16:49, Travelled in a Couple

The guides Mate and Ilona were terrific and well versed with the area and history. The ship’s crew were attentive to all our needs. The swimming off the boat was an added fantastic bonus!

The Dalmatian Coast is beautiful, and sailing on the Colombo was a great experience. The crew was awesome: great food (thanks Ivan), great service (thanks Bruno) and great sailors (thanks to Mislav and Mikula).

If you are looking for a memorable and unique experience to explore Croatia then the Sail and Hike on Sail Croatia is the way to go. From the incredible staff on board to the amazing views, this was a trip of a lifetime!!

- Tracie, 17/06/2025 14:30, Travelled in a Couple

We loved moving to a new island each day. The hikes were enjoyable. The guides were knowledgable and fun. The food was great.

- Monica, 07/06/2025 06:41, Travelled in a Couple

Great guides took us on some great walks., followed by relaxation in the water and local village. The boat, food and staff were terrific. Thank you

- Mike, 06/06/2025 08:42, Travelled in a Couple

We had a great time on and off the boat. We traveled as a couple with a set of friends. The hikes were good and guided very well by Illona and Martin. The only thing I would recommend to change is the fixed lunch as we could have enjoyed a few longer hikes without having to rush back for lunch on the boat. It was especially the case with the hike from Makarska after an hours bus drive to the national park. That day we also had the captains dinner on the boat so we could have had lunch on the mountain in the national park. All in all we had a wonderful holiday!

- Elke, 05/06/2025 15:35, Travelled in a Couple

There isn't one particular thing - the staff, the accommodations, the FOOD (we had to hike or else get fat!), the guides, and the destinations - it was all beyond what I ever expected.

- Lisa, 02/06/2025 17:44, Travelled with Friend/s

The ship, the crew and the company were all superb. A beautiful ship, which was constantly being looked after by the enthusiastic crew, and a group of travellers from the far corners of the world who met and mixed throughout the week and who all became friends. Beautiful islands and interesting walks, led by Mate who was an excellent and experienced local guide and who gave us so much information about the history of each area. He really was an important part of the trip. And not to forget the breakfasts and lunches which were really good and gave us the calories to complete the walks and at a pace that suited all levels. Altogether a memorable week and a great way to mark our Golden Wedding.

- Hugh, 30/05/2025 09:50, Travelled in a Couple

What a great itinerary, with a fabulous bunch of people! Everyone was so friendly. Our hikes were a good variety, ranging from flat to vertical (possibly a slight exaggeration, but there were some steep bits!) We hiked along clifftops, over rocks, through woodland, in National Parks with waterfalls galore (and some very noisy frogs!), and through small towns. All different, all gorgeous. Our guides Ivica and Lucija were brilliant, watching out for everyone, giving us lots of snippets of information, and sharing their obvious love for their beautiful country. They gave us some pretty good restaurant recommendations too!

- Paula, 27/05/2025 17:33, Travelled in a Couple

Great crew and good company with fellow travelers

- Gwyn, 27/05/2025 04:02, Travelled in a Couple

From making the reservations to answering our questions to providing us with fantastic reps, Mila and Lola.... everything was fantastic and we can't wait to explore more of this beautiful country using Sail Croatia. The Emanuel ship and crew were comfortable and made our experience top- notch. 5- stars all around!

- Jodi, 26/05/2025 20:32, Travelled in a Couple

Our sail/hike Split Southern Islands week was a perfect mix of activity on our hikes and time to relax either onboard beautiful Emanuel or onshore at one of the picturesque towns in which we spent the night. Food provided onboard for breakfast and lunch was plentiful and tasty (thanks to our on-board Chef). Our cabin was roomy and well presented. The whole crew and our two guides looked after us really well and Croatia and the Adriatic Sea were just stunning. We could not have asked for a better week. Thank you to our crew and our awesome guides and thank you Sail Croatia.

- Andrea and Gary, 26/05/2025 18:51, Travelled in a Couple

This was one of my best vacations ever! A perfect combination of activity, connecting with nature, and relaxation. The itinerary (northern route from Split) was expertly selected and planned, the crew was friendly and attentive, and the guides were knowledgeable and fun. Highly recommend!

- Christine, 26/05/2025 11:00, Travelled with Friend/s

We were a group of twelve family and friends coming from all around the globe. Our two guides Mila and Lola were fantastic. Their knowledge and enthusiasm for their country was to be admired and their sense of humour and their laughter was infectious. We had a great time and I would recommend it to anyone.

- Denise, 26/05/2025 10:46, Travelled with Friend/s

Everything worked like a well oiled machine. Those who wanted to walk did and those who didn't didn't. There was no pressure on anyone. Staff were thoughtful and attentive. Thought was put into what people wanted to do including consultation as to preferences due to weather issues.

- Martin, 26/05/2025 06:03, Travelled with Friend/s

The crew was friendly and helpful. The boat was well appointed. We had fantastic fellow travelers. The destinations were beautiful

- Julie, 26/05/2025 05:53, Travelled in a Couple

Sail croatia put together an amazing journey along the Dalmatian coast. We were aboard the Mali Ante with a experienced and skilled crew. The chef prepared excellent Croatian cuisine for breakfast and lunch that rivaled many of the excellent restaurants we tried for dinner. We were on a new hiking cruise, designed by our guides, that included national parks and islands north of Split, including Plitvice and Krka. The guides, Ivica and Lucija, carefully selected trails to suit the abilities of the group and were very attentive to the needs of each guest. I would love to come back and do a hiking tour of the southern islands in the future. We primarily stayed in small villiages on the islands and Lucija was very kind to tell us all about the towns and their history and every night she provided excellent recommendations for dinners. Swim stops were great and refreshing! Best part of our month long vacation so far!

- Carolyn, 26/05/2025 05:52, Travelled in a Couple

We chose the Luxury Hiking Tour on the Salve di mare from Split to Dubrovnik. From our arrival on the Yacht to our departure everything was beyond perfect! Anita and Mate went above and beyond to ensure we had a true Croatian experience from the great hikes filled with historic information to the recommendations for additional activities and wonderful restaurants on each of the islands we visited. The Yacht crew was friendly and attentive to requests, providing wonderful meals, making sure our room and the Yacht were clean and our captain went above expectations by adjusting our island visits to ensure we always had fantastic weather. We look forward to traveling again in the future with Sail Croatia and highly recommend their trips.

- Shelly, 23/05/2025 23:39, Travelled in a Couple

Friendly, knowledgeable boat crew Excellent food Great hikes leading to interesting points in history, connection with nature, fabulous views Would recommend!

- Steph, 21/05/2025 07:24, Travelled in a Couple

My wife and I didn't know what to expect, but the experience was first class. The tour guides - Anita and Mate, were fantastic and made for a great trip, as did the rest of the crew. Would certainly go with Sail Croatia again.

- Nic, 19/05/2025 00:30, Travelled in a Couple

Many aspects: Being early in season we had it all to ourselves. Our small group of 14 made it very fun and social. The boat was clean and well maintained and the crew knew their business. Breakfasts and lunches were good in fact overtop. Everyone was very friendly and accommodating. Our hiking guides were gracious and knowledgeable. Everything was smooth and organized. My only issue was WiFi/internet access wa spotty at best.

- David, 18/05/2025 13:07, Travelled in a Couple

The staff were top notch, accommodations very comfortable and I want to give a special shoutout to Mate our hiking guide and Anita our tour guide. They truly were a team and did an excellent job of keeping us informed with daily briefings covering our hike for the day and historic things to see and places to have dinner. The great friends we met will not be forgotten!! Thank you all!

- Monica, 15/05/2025 19:58, Travelled in a Couple

The crew, guides & boat were fabulous. The pictureques coastline & islands we visitied were asolutely amazing. A fun & engaging time was had with fellow travellers who were from Australia, Canada & USA. The onboard catering was excellent although not sure we needed dessert after every meal. A bowl of fresh fruit would have sufficed. As an Aussie coffee lover, the machine coffee & its cost made be worth some tweaking. A barista style coffee machine would be the only improvement I could recommend on our cruise.

- Miriam, 15/05/2025 09:46, Travelled with Friend/s

From the first greeting at the dock in Split to making sure we had transport to our next destination in Dubrovnik, Anita made us feel like family. Each day’s activities were communicated through regular briefings and schedule updates on WhatsApp. Our hiking guide, Mate, explained the details of each walk and made sure we all felt confident with the pace and difficulty each time he led us to the magical views he shared with us. The crew were fantastic. The Captain changed some days around to avoid bad weather and rough seas. The food was great and the ship was always clean and tidy. We had a great time and the Sail Croatia guides and the Salve Di Mare crew made sure we were comfortable, active and well informed. We learnt so much about Croatia. Obviously a place loved by our guides and the crew. Thank you for sharing your country and your knowledge with us!!

- Tom, 14/05/2025 18:27, Travelled in a Couple

The overall experience was outstanding! The tour leaders, Anita and Mate, engaged positively with everyone as they introduced us to beautiful Croatia. The crew of the Salve de Mare were professional, friendly, and contributed to the overall wonderful trip.

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.

- Claire , 13/05/2025 11:25, Travelled in a Couple

Sail Croatia staff were amazing. Anita and Matthias (sp?) were both perfect hosts. They made the trip. Hikes were amazing, knowledge of local attractions was fantastic. Salve Di Mare boat was beautiful and crew were also amazing. Food was top notch and each stop was a different and incredible experience. The trip exceeded our expectations - highly recommend!

- Darren, 12/05/2025 14:32, Travelled in a Couple

This hike cruise was fabulous! Amazing ship and crew, tasty food and our hiking guides Lola and Ilona were just awesome, the hikes were stunning everyday with optional add on activities if we wanted to do them. The other guests made the cruise so sociable, I have belly laughed a lot! To be honest the whole experience was better than I could have imagined - there’s no doubt I’ll book again! Can’t wait to come back and explore Croatia more! Especially if we can have Lola and Ilona again, they really made the week special!

- Kaye, 12/05/2025 11:32, Travelled with Friend/s

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

- Jackie, 06/05/2025 22:00, Travelled in a Couple

The guides Marte and Lola brought Croatia to life for us. They had love and enthusiasm in showing us the history and beauty of their home. There was a genuine feeling of exploration and excitement within our group. The crew on board the Salve di Mare were so welcoming as well, whilst they worked so hard at their jobs.

- Warren, 05/05/2025 03:17, Travelled in a Couple

I booked the Hiking Split Return South route for my 50th birthday and it exceeded all of my expectations. My husband and I were on the Columbo and our guides Mate and Karla were awesome. They were knowledgeable and fun and you could tell that they were passionate about Croatia and hiking. The food was great, the swim stops were fun and I haven't laughed that much on a trip ever. We had a great group of like minded people from around the world who made every day fun. From the captain to the crew and especially our guides Mate and Karla, we all felt very well taken care of onboard and off. I would highly recommend Sail Croatia and will definitely book another trip with them in the future. Lindsie & Curtis (Vancouver, BC, Canada)

- Lindsie, 10/10/2024 17:10, Travelled in a Couple

The Sail Croatia hike week gave us exactly what we were hoping for and more. A week sailing between beautiful islands (on Columbo), interesting hikes each day, like-minded people on the trip (some of which will become life-long friends), good food and local tips for each island, regular swim stops and a whole lot of fun and laughter. Our tour guides Mate and Karla provided expert guidance, fun and constant enthusiasm. Their passion for their country was truly infectious. We have fallen in love with Croatia. Thank you, Jill and Rich (UK)

- Jill, 09/10/2024 20:29, Travelled in a Couple

The beauty of the islands/locations we visited/hiked, the delicious Croatian dishes we enjoyed and the intimate nature of our ship Columbo all lived up to our high expectations. What we did not foresee was even more significant in making this a most memorable journey: the wonderful camaraderie that quickly developed amongst our fellow marauders, the warmth and capable leadership of our incredible guides (Mate and Karla), and the ,world class professionalism of Captain Antonio, Bruno and the rest of the crew,, We came in search of some adventure and left with new friends, an immense fondness for Croatia and its proud people. For this , we owe tremendous thanks to Mate and Karla who were the orchestra leaders who helped us all make music. Unforgettable!

- Terry, 09/10/2024 08:44, Travelled in a Couple

The tour guide Karla and hike guide Mate were really amazing. We feel so lucky to have had them with us.. Really knowledgeable and friendly people who helped bring a group of strangers together to be friends by the end of the week. Thanks too to Bruno and the captain and crew on Columbo for taking such good care of us. The hikes were beautiful. Sometimes they were challenging but not so difficult that we were not able to enjoy the scenery and get to know each other on the way. Our favourite hike was in Makarska, where the views were stunning. Our weather was mixed with some unexpected heavy rain at times but the itinerary was adapted well to suit sailing conditions. The boat was full of like-minded travellers from all over the world and we had a really fun-filled week with the best people.

- Anonymous, 08/10/2024 08:33, Travelled in a Couple

We sailed on the Colombo last week. It was glorious. Though the weather was changeable, the atmosphere on board remained fun loving. Credit must go to the superb captain and crew for safe sailing and adaptability. Swim stops, meals and wonderful evenings will remain in the memory. Special mention must be made, though, of our two wonderful guides: Mate and Karla, not just because they were instructive experts in their hiking field, but also unifying us as a group. They were special and charmed us all. We were all sad to say goodbye at the end of the tour. We are now looking forward to our next Sail Croatia trip in 2025

- Anonymous, 07/10/2024 17:18, Travelled in a Couple

Mate & Karla created an atmosphere that was joyous, fascinating, physically challenging (what we'd hoped for), historically relevant, whilst oozing their love of their gorgeous homeland, nature, fun facts, & always with a smile & belly laughs! They were the reason 30 people came together as strangers & left wanting (& hoping) to stay in touch with them all!! Very organised, very safe, & inspirational. The crew were also a huge part of making this trip as perfect as it was as well. Thank you to all who played a part. We sure love Mate & Karla!!

- Ellen, 07/10/2024 16:57, Travelled in a Couple

This cruise/hike was the most amazing trip!!! Our guides- Mate and Karla made it even better as they planned our daily hikes, kept in contact with us, shared their local knowledge, protected us, and had fun with us!!! They were perfect and we couldn’t have asked for anything or anyone more! Bruno worked hard to keep us hydrated and fed and the sailors, cooks, and Captain of Colombo ship were perfect. The itinerary was so fun! Everyone on the ship bonded and loved the experience!!! We were all sad to say goodbye! Thank you!!!

- Linda, 07/10/2024 16:39, Travelled in a Couple

Our sail/hike trip will be remembered as a favourite because of the people. Our two guides, Karla and Mate, shared their knowledge and passion for Croatia helping passengers appreciate the living history all around us. We sailed on the ship Columbo which was extremely well run by captain and crew. Thank you all!

- Cynthia, 07/10/2024 07:40, Travelled with Friend/s

Had the best week ever. Perfect in all ways. Guides were so friendly and passionate and knowledgeable about their country. The crew of “Emmanuel “ were amazing as well, with a clean well equipped boat and friendly and helpful at all times. Food was fabulous. Amazing trip and can’t recommend highly enough.

- Hazel, 06/10/2024 11:54, Travelled with Friend/s

The trip was amazing from the fantastic crew, to great food and meeting a lovely group of like minded people., Anita the sail Cristian rep was fabulous with a wealth of knowledge on each area and always updated us on what was available at port stops by what’s app. Mika our hiking rep was competent with great knowledge of the terrain and our safety was paramount to her. Her daily updates were very informative. Her passion for the environment and her country was impressive.. I loved the daily sea swim stops . The hikes were challenging at times for me but with Mila and Anita encouragement I completed all of them. I would highly recommend this holiday.

- Liz, 05/10/2024 16:02, Travelled in a Couple

We had a fantastic time, met great new people and felt good getting in a bit of walking and swimming whilst still having some time to explore the towns we stopped in. Many thanks to the staff who were all so friendly, helpful, great guides and of course fabulous cooks. We highly recommend sailing on the Emanuel with Sail Croatia.

- Kirsten, 01/10/2024 19:55, Travelled with Friend/s

Thus was one of the best holidays that I have ever had and I have traveled expensively in my life to all continents. The organizing of the hikes was especially impressive. Dealing with various levels of fitness and skill would have made this a challenging task but Mate chose hikes that could appeal to all levels and mixed the intensity each day giving those who needed a rest. There was plenty of opportunity to swim creating the perfect fitness balance. I especially loved the carefree and historical stories told by Andro that displayed his passion for country. The boat was beautiful and very clean, the service top notch and attentive. The food was tasty, plentiful and creative. We had one bad day of weather and I truly appreciated the choice made by the captain to come in a day early, I felt safe in his hands. Because of this experience we are planning to book another Sail Croatia from Split for next year. We started searching for a similar trip when we returned but Sail Croatia wins

- Sharon , 30/09/2024 15:50, Travelled with Friend/s

The sail and hike experience was a great combination! The hikes were reasonably challenging but worth the views at the top and each one was unique. The hiking guides were so enthusiastic and knowledgeable. The boat was in impeccable condition and the crew members went out of their way to make the sailing a memorable experience. My wife needed a gluten free menu which was no trouble whatsoever.

- Jeremy, 30/09/2024 05:55, Travelled in a Couple

What a great way to see the islands and learn so much about the history and geography of the area. The Emmanuel is a great ship to travel on with great , friendly and helpful staff. Food was excellent and plentiful and the twin bedded cabin we had was more roomy that I expected Our guides Mila and Anita are so knowledgeable and shared many facts along the hikes . The hikes were a all manageable length and the ascents worth it , for the amazing views. I loved being able.to swimming the ship daily, what a great holiday. Mila's enthusiasm and passion for her country , traditions and history and love of walking in nature is contagious. Thank you

- Ruth, 30/09/2024 05:31, Travelled with Friend/s

We did the sailing/hiking tour around the south islands of Split and every day got better and better! The scenery is spectacular, the water is amazing to look at and even better to swim in! The hikes were such a wonderful way to see the country. Mila and Lola were our fantastic guides and they made every hike incredible. We learned so much and got a great workout in each day. The crew is superb! We had some weather but the Captain did everything he could to avoid it and get us to our next destination. Every other crew member made sure our accommodations, food and drinks were great! ! I would definitely go back and sail/hike with this group of people any day!

- Tracey, 18/09/2024 20:23, Travelled with Friend/s

Excellent staff and very clean boat. Itinerary was great despite changes due to weather. (The only thing I would change is to have more salads and fish at lunch - too much heavy meat). Wonderful week!

The boat and crew were fantastic as was the scenery of the islands and coastline of Croatia. The best part was being able to get off the boat and hike to peaks or points of interest every day. We saw so much more of Croatia than we would have had we not selected the Sail & Hike trip with Sail Croatia. Thoroughly recommended!!

- Mark, 03/09/2024 07:58, Travelled in a Couple

The team was amazing, nothing was to much trouble. Food and the hiking was top class! Glad we hiked as it was something to do at each stop. Best way to see Croatia is on a cruise and 7 nights is just perfect.

The logistics were spot on making this a super easy trip. The hikes were clearly explained in advance and our guides, Mate and Marija, were fantastic - their local knowledge and skill made all the difference. Swim spots along the way were a welcome opportunity to relax and the variety of hikes meant we saw diverse terrains, flora and fauna. Highly recommended!

The accommodations were better than I expected. Helpful and knowledgeable staff Wonderful guides Would have liked better directions to where the boat was docked, we had to pay a €50 taxi ride to get to the other side of the harbor. We never received the “live feed”, Fortunately they held the boat for the 4 of us.

The team onboard Afrodita made my experience onboard the best I could ask for. Truly an amazing crew which gave the highest of care to everyone on board. Andre the waiter was amazing at making sure I didn't lift a finger to get anything. He reminded me I was on holiday saying I will do it for you. He was truly amazing. They all were to be honest such lovely kind people. Our hike guides Mila and Andro were also amazing, with their amazing guidance they brought the fun factor also which is important when you are on holidays. This has been my best holiday to date and I will forever remember my time and crew onboard Afrodita. Thank you everyone and hope to meet again one day x.

Thankyou everyone I had an amazing time!! The hikes were hard but wonderful. Our guides were so friendly (Ilona and Mila) and helpful and were so happy sharing information about each island and where to visit and eat. Thankyou lovely ladies!! I was happy with the service from all of the guys on the boat too. There was always enough food which I enjoyed. The boat was very clean and you could see the captain really looks after it and has pride in this, thank you boys!!

My trip with Sail Croatia was a wonderful adventure. The staff's exceptional hospitality made the journey truly unforgettable. They were not only knowledgeable but also genuinely cared about our well-being, ensuring we had a fantastic experience. The ship itself was clean and comfortable. It was well-maintained and the food was plentiful and delicious. The hikes in Croatia were nothing short of spectacular, with breathtaking views and diverse terrain. The camaraderie among fellow travelers added an extra layer of enjoyment to the trip, and I made lasting friendships along the way. This sailing and hiking adventure exceeded my expectations. It's a perfect escape for nature lovers, adventure seekers, and anyone looking to disconnect from the hustle and bustle of daily life. I can't recommend it highly enough, and I'm already dreaming of my next journey with this outstanding team.

From start to finish we had a great holiday. The boat was gleaming throughout, the crew were friendly and the food was excellent. Just what we needed to fuel up for the hikes. Our guides (Mate and Andro) were kind, helpful, informative and both had a great sense of humour. The hikes were good fun and the views were spectacular! We met lovely people from around the world. We would definitely do this again.

- Claire , 13/10/2023 07:51, Travelled in a Couple

WOW. The guides and crew of our hiking trip made our experience so fun and easy. The hikes were calibrated to the group's preferences, so they were just challenging enough to keep it fun and provided great views of the islands. Breakfasts and lunches on board were delicious. And I can't say enough good things about our guides and crew - so kind, thoughtful, and detail-oriented. This trip was the perfect way to unwind while not just sitting in a beach chair for a week. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a mix of relaxation and adventure.

I travelled with a friend on the Hike & Swim trip onboard The Emmanuel. All the other guests were a fabulous bunch & very diverse. The hikes were challenging for me - some more than others - however no one is hurrying you & you can choose to sit some out if you need to. I felt a tremendous sense of achievement for managing to complete the majority & of course enjoy the beautiful countryside. Our guides Mila & Maria were just brilliant - knowledgeable, humorous, kind & the crew of the Emmanuel were also the same - it felt like a family. The food was excellent & we particularly appreciated the special efforts made for us as a Vegan & Vegetarian. One thing to note - if you are checking a bag in, bring walking poles - the ascents & descents are steep & rocky. Cabins are very basic & very small but all we did was sleep in them so it was no problem & tbh there is all we need. Definitely would return to some of the islands & would consider a different Sail Croatia trip (different islands).

Our ship’s friendly crew and staff on board the Mail Ante were all wonderful., especially our waiter Mario. He was very welcoming, and helpful.. I had some dietary requirements and he looked after meat every meal. All the food we had on board was delicious. There was so much variety. Our hiking guides Mate and Andro were friendly and very informative. We learned lots about the places we hiked to. The hikes were challenging but doable with amazing views. The swim stops were glorious. We met lovely fellow passengers and we all got along really well. Thank you for a fabulous holiday. We would highly recommend this trip and would love to return to Sail Croatia in the near future.

We loved the hiking cruise! You could swim and walk everyday, and we saw islands/ parts of Croatia we never would have visited otherwise. Everyone on the boat was great. We were recommended by friends, and we will continue to highly recommend too! Thanks Sail Croatia

- Amanda , 26/09/2023 08:37, Travelled in a Couple

- travelling with old friends - meeting new people - seeing new beautiful places - discovering that I enjoy cruising - nice staff

- Karen, 25/09/2023 20:12, Travelled with Friend/s

Mate and Lola gave lots of info and were always concerned about our safety.

- Kirti, 25/09/2023 18:33, Travelled in a Couple

The organisation, the friendly crew, the varied and well paced hikes. Mate and Lola made a great team leading the hikes and providing information about each location and they had some great restaurant recommendations. Must also mention Lucy who did a great job serving the meals each day as well as making a delicious Aperol Spritz . Each day was varied but with plenty of time to relax or explore each town. Never having cruised before we were not too sure what to expect but loved it and would not hesitate to recommend the trip and sail croatia. We have already told many of our friends.

- Joanne, 25/09/2023 15:20, Travelled in a Couple

Friendly and helpful staff, clean and comfortable boat, good weather and challenging hiking with great views and countryside.

- Philipp, 25/09/2023 09:01, Travelled in a Couple

Hikes, sightseeing and fellowship. And food.

- Tom, 25/09/2023 05:18, Travelled in a Couple

We booked the seven night sail and hike trip, and it exceeded expectations. A wonderful way to visit new and interesting places, and get to see more than the main areas of each town. It also took us to places we wouldn’t have had time to visit on a regular trip. A special mention to the great crew of Eos, our ship for the stay. And to the Sail Croatia reps Ioana and Mate who were enthusiastic and energetic through the week and mate each day lots of fun. Looking forward to out next trip already.

- Stuart, 19/09/2023 20:23, Travelled in a Couple

The tour manager, hiking guide and crew were all so friendly and helpful. Made the cruise relaxing and fun. They made sure we knew what was happening and any changes as soon as possible.

- Rose, 18/09/2023 16:02, Travelled in a Couple

Great value for money and perfectly planned and executed hikes and activities. I will recommend this to anyone. Hiking guide is a gem. Coffee on the boat - perhaps open coffee station 24/7? Even if guests must bring their own ingredients

- Carien Lambert, 18/09/2023 13:50, Travelled with Friend/s

We all had a fantastic week with sail croatia. Food was really good all the staff were lovely and helpful. Hikes were challenging and great. Loved every minute. Thank you. Hope to come again next year.

- Susan, 23/06/2023 08:25, Travelled with Friend/s

Fantastic places to swim and hike to view points. Had a fabulous holiday with like minded people.

- Janet, 19/06/2023 18:43, Travelled in a Couple

Location was beautiful Friendly and knowledgeable guides Lovely ship staff nothing was too much trouble Good mix of passengers Great food nicely prepared and plentiful

- Laurie, 19/06/2023 06:16, Travelled in a Couple

You get to see more of islands, the hike were great and not easy so you do need some level of fitness. Food was brilliant as were the crew onboard and guides. Rooms were great only niggle was air con not very cold. All in all a great experience and great way to see Croatia just wish they did this in other countries like Greece as would book again in a heartbeat

- Janet, 19/06/2023 05:06, Travelled in a Couple

Robert our guide. Perfect gentleman, didn't see our age - saw us. Went over and above on every hike helping supporting and encouraging all the way. On board crew felt like family exceptional service night and day.

- Catherine , 19/06/2023 05:01, Travelled with Friend/s

From getting on boat to getting off I had a fantastic time with wonderful people and crew. The guides crew were fantastic food amazing 👏 I challenged myself with the hikes and everyone supported each other I had the time of my life.

- Christine , 19/06/2023 04:45, Travelled with Friend/s

Good accommodations, friendly people. Expert crew and captain.

- Mary, 18/06/2023 17:09, Travelled with Friend/s

The boat was wonderful. Crew terrific and the scenery spectacular.

- David, 12/06/2023 10:02, Travelled with Friend/s

The boat was a perfect size, always spotless, the food was delicious, the crew superb, charming and helpful and the organization excellent. Each walk was special, Mila and Mari were a perfect combination of guides and always made a plan with the weather enabling us to hike come what may. In the misty, pouring rain a three hour hike was fortunately reduced to a 1 hour hike. We were all very impressed with our captain, especially with his horizontal parking in a tiny harbour! I would definitely recommend doing this trip but be warned for all types of weather and bring appropriate clothing.

- Karin, 29/05/2023 16:02, Travelled in a Couple

The crew looked after us so well. A bad storm meant reconfiguring the route. Very grateful to our captain’s wisdom in keeping us safe and our hike leaders for making sure we got in a hike every day despite the itinerary change. The staff were professional, pleasant, and caring. Food was excellent and varied. I required gluten free accommodation and it was taken care of. I will say that for me, the hikes were too rigorous; all involved a 1+ hour of unremitting climbing on rocky terrain. But I was in the minority. Most found the hikes perfect.

- Mary Jane, 23/05/2023 19:42, Travelled in a Couple

Lovely boat, in great condition, beautiful islands and fantastic walks, but even better were the friendly and helpful crew and guides who couldn't do enough for us and genuinely cared about making guests have the best experience. We had a spacious above deck room which was larger than expected and the rest of the boat was just the right size - big enough to be comfortable without feeling we were on a massive ship. Good food and super service. We didn't get the chance to use the sundeck as much as we would have liked as the weather was patchy with some strong rain storms – however, I believe this is rare for Croatia. And the crew and guides adapted the itinerary so that we had hikes (and other activities) every day - they really did all they could to make us have a good time. The group bonded and when the sun came out we were all the happier for it. Thanks Sail Croatia - we'd love to return!

- Paul, 22/05/2023 18:20, Travelled in a Couple

Great captain, Vlado, fabulous guides Mila and Mare, were key to us having a fabulous trip even though our weather was not perfect. The whole crew made our stay on the boat amazing. Clean rooms, hot showers, spectacular destinations! Will definitely be back to Croatia.

- Kim, 22/05/2023 07:22, Travelled in a Couple

Ahoy there! I went on the hiking week with eight girlfriends, but by the end of the holiday I felt that I was friends with all 32 shipmates, all of the amazing crew and our guides Mali and Marija. From the Captain, to every single member of the crew, they made this week truly awesome. The food onboard was plentiful and delicious. The boat was kept scrupulously clean and tidy. Unfortunately, the weather for the first four days was very wet and windy, causing the Captain to reschedule the original route. Mali had to improvise and make alternative plans for some of our hikes by tweaking the itinerary. Both guides worked very hard at making the holiday a huge success and motivational, enabling me to complete some of the slightly challenging parts of our treks. Thank you! The landscape and views are breathtaking, the people of Croatia are wonderful and I will be returning, In the meantime, I’ll remember with affection the week spent with such wonderful company. Book now!!!

- Fiona, 22/05/2023 06:26, Travelled with Friend/s

We had an amazing week hiking through the Dalmatian Islands. Weather was not always on our side but the Sail Croatia team modified our itinerary to suit and we managed to get in a hike every day. The food on board was excellent. Our fellow passengers were also amazing. Huge thanks to Captain Vlado, and hike guides Mila and Mare.

- John, 22/05/2023 05:28, Travelled in a Couple

All the towns we visited in Croatia were beautiful! The hikes were great fun! The crew were ALL amazing, friendly and knowledgeable! The boat (Milena) was clean, spacious and very comfortable! And we had a wonderful group of people and all became fast friends!

We had a great time joining a hike cruise with Sail Croatia! We booked last minute, near the end of the season in October, and had a fantastic time! The crew and guides be were experienced, friendly, and knowledgeable. The other guests were a good mix of ages and nationalities. Everyone on the Hike cruise wanted to explore but also socialize, some good nights but no crazy partying. Matched exactly what we were looking for! The islands were exceptionally beautiful and all the stops were enjoyable. The hikes were good but sightly shorter than we would have liked, but that left lots of time to explore, and eat! The food was amazing, on the ship and on shore. It would be impossible to do this on your own at a similar price point, in a similar amount of time. We visited so many spots, with food, lodging, transport, and guides all rolled into one great week! Would highly recommend!

- Leif, 11/10/2022 13:36, Travelled in a Couple

The crew of the Emanuel were fantastic and looked after us so well. We also had an excellent hike leader - Mate, who took us on interesting hikes on the various locations - and Sail Croatia rep - Andi, who took care of every detail and possible question from the guests. We were also lucky enough to be sailing with the loveliest group of people, making the week one of our most enjoyable holidays.. A really good way of sampling lots of locations in Croatia in a week.

- Elaine , 10/10/2022 08:56, Travelled in a Couple

Wow! we have just returned from a Sail-Hike week on Emanuel. It was an amazing experience that totally exceeded our expectations. Every aspect was top class, the crew were extremely helpful and friendly - the ship was so clean, the food was amazing. Our schedule was updated daily to take account of the changing weather, we were kept safe and managed to see all the highlights .Our guides Marin and Karolina made it such a memorable trip, the pace was perfect for everyone - we quickly became a big family. Groups, couples and singles boarded as strangers and disembarked as friends. Croatia is a beautiful destination, so much more to explore. Would love to do another sail/hike if you offer a different schedule. Love, love, loved it!!

- Mandy, 04/10/2022 15:20, Travelled in a Couple

The overall trip was well organised. Great crew. Food delicious. Tour manager and hiking guide excellent. Even when plans had to change because of the weather a good alternative was organised. We made new friends. I would re book in a heart beat. Well done

Lovely small boat able to drop into little bays and harbours. Good food for hungry hikers. Plenty of room on deck to relax while travelling.

- Anonymous, 03/10/2022 06:19, Travelled with Friend/s

Congratulations I am a vegan and I can honestly say I had the most delicious variety of dishes on board the ship. The ingredients were fresh and extremely well cooked and presented. So even though the choice of food on land was very limited it didn’t matter because you were so well looked after on board.

- Amanda , 03/10/2022 03:47, Travelled with Friend/s

The trip was great in every way. The food was exceptional and the service very good. The trip was very well organized, the hikes were fun and the tour guides were very nice. Enough time to walk around the small towns we visited and an unforgettable opportunity to swim in the sea.

- Þórunn, 24/09/2022 09:49, Travelled with Friend/s

What a fantastic holiday! Just loved it! Would totally recommend. Lovely crew, great hike guide, such a different holiday from my normal holiday! Lots of food, challenging hikes and beautiful weather. Gorgeous islands, swimming in the sea off the boat, thank you for a great experience 👍🏻

- Janet, 15/09/2022 05:23, Travelled with Friend/s

Excellent staff and guides, all very friendly. However I would like to make some recommendations. Much better if all walks started after breakfast. The first two days starting at 5pm meant the evenings were very rushed. A lot of the walks were up and back down the same track, would be better if they were of a circular route. Pace of walks was very slow but I realise this was to accommodate everyone. Could the group be divided into two one being faster paced and one slower? Would have been nice to spend the afternoon in Omis rather than sail back to Split at lunchtime. Omis was a beautiful resort with a nice beach, would have been nice to relax there for a few hours before the short trip back to split. Finally perhaps a bedding change midweek. Other than that a brilliant week and thanks to all the staff and crew who helped to make it such a great week.

- mark, 10/09/2022 16:06, Travelled with Friend/s

- petronella, 07/09/2022 12:07, Travelled with Friend/s

We experienced great hospitality among staff and tour guides. They were willing to give everything for our enjoyment. The staff on the ship was amazing and the tour guides truly devoted to their job. Mate and Mila went the extra mile for us, each and every day. This trip had everything and more. Our boat Emanuel will be missed and everyone on board. "Get it down'ya"

- Beggi, 05/09/2022 12:34, Travelled in a Couple

Great team on Emanuel boat made everything run seamlessly. Mila and Mate were an awesome team for the hikes and suggesting places to visit and a wealth of knowledge on the area. Not just leading hikes but going over and above to make sure we had a great time! The boat crew were also great ensuring we docked in great places, got time to swim, and ate lovely food.

- Hoanne, 05/09/2022 11:27, Travelled with Friend/s

worry free vacation where the crew takes good care of you onboard, the hiking guide is outstanding, environment is unforgettable. overall perfect vacation with a perfect combination of relaxation, activity, good food and company. I will remember this week always :)

- Dagny, 05/09/2022 10:46, Travelled in a Couple

My friend and I went on the Emanuel for a hiking and sailing vacation in August and there is nothing that could have made this vacation better. Very quickly after we began sailing we stopped for our first swim break in the amazing blue waters. Getting into the chilly sea people yelped and laughed and opened up to each other. By the time we got back on the boat we were all friends rather than fellow travelers. The first hike solidified us even more. Every day we hiked to a beauty spot; a monastery, a fortress, a mountain hut etc. Each hike was challenging but you were not worn out afterwards. Our guide did a wonderful job of keeping us together and resting without making the faster people feel like the hike was slow. Every day we swam in the most beautiful coves (bring a snorkle and mask!) The food was abundant, varied and delicious. We moved seats each meal so we ate with all our friends. In towns restaurants and entertainments were recommended and they were quite good as well.

- Dana, 05/09/2022 08:01, Travelled with Friend/s

Great people Great boat Great walks and scenery

- Stephen, 05/09/2022 07:42, Travelled in a Couple

The balance of everything involved with the week was amazing-sailing, walking, swimming & sunbathing. The guides were great-friendly & excellent at going out of their way to help you, both with the walking & knowledge of the islands. The boat had all we needed & the food was good.

- Alison , 05/09/2022 06:20, Travelled with Friend/s

The lovely staff aboard the Meliante especially Mario ( waiter), Antonio (chef) and Marte (our hiking guide). The food and catering for special diets and the availability of fruit and water all day. The weather was stunning in June and the beautiful islands. The hikes are very challenging, not for the faint hearted, but well worth the achievement of completing them. The swimming off the boat was great and it meant we saw other beautiful areas of the islands not readily accessable to others by land. We could have sometimes stayed a bit longer in those areas. The boat is maintained to a high standard and was clean. Compliments to all the staff for making this one of the best holiday experiences me and my wife have had.

- Glyn, 18/07/2022 08:37, Travelled with Friend/s

Fantastic crew on the boat. Very attentive, excellent food and drink..Hiking guides Mate and Marin were very knowledgeable about the areas where we hiked and made sure all levels of walkers were looked after. Plenty of swim stops in beautiful bays and sea. This was our second trip will Sail Croatia and it didn't disappoint.

- Owen, 11/07/2022 07:50, Travelled in a Couple

From the moment we arrived near our ship on the first morning to the moment we departed, our Sail Croatia guide Mate (pronounced Matty) was superb. So knowledgeable about the history behind the islands and was there to look after everyone, every step of the way both on the hikes and on the ship. Every island was so different. I was so excited to wake up every morning knowing I'd be seeing something new to explore. Cabins are clean and as comfortable as they can be for a small ship. Plenty of hot water. Crew were friendly. Definitely looking to book again next year, but for the cycle cruise so that I can see more of these beautiful islands. The Sale Croatia sales team are also fantastic. Quick to respond to any queries I had ahead of our holiday.

- Naomi, 29/06/2022 04:38, Travelled in a Couple

We booked the sail and hike cruise with friends on the Split to Split tour. The Mali Ante, the crew, Mate the hike guide, the food were all fantastic. With only 13 other guests it was like a private cruise and we all quickly became friends.. The breakfasts and lunches were very high quality and plentyful. The fresh fruit bowl and filtered water was available at all times. The hiking could be undertaken by most people with reasonable levels of fitness. Recommend taking a hiking pole, snorkeling gear and sunhat together with a small day rucksack. As a group we had some evening meals together.. in the local restaraunts be wary of items priced per 100gms ( they usually turn out as expensive,!!) . Cabin comfortable with a shower and toilet. A great experience and will be booking again. Suitable for couples, friends together or singles.

- John, 23/06/2022 02:22, Travelled in a Couple

The companionship of our fellow travellers made the week a really enjoyable experience. The crew were excellent from the captain to the deck hands. The food was exceptional. Our guide Mate was excellent in the way he oaced the walks and he was excellent with his communication skills. Things I would consider changing are: 1) for better walkers give them an option of extending the walk, so provide a map/gps route for them. Ask that they sign a disclaimer so Sail Croatia is protected should they have a mishap. 2) provide more buffet lunches. This was my first experience of sailing and trekking and I was really impressed with the quality of our vessel and hopping from island to island was enjoyable. I would certainly recommend to anyone that if they enjoy sea travel and hiking this experience would be very enjoyable

- Trevor, 20/06/2022 14:44, Travelled with Friend/s

The crew and our guide were really friendly and couldn't do enough for us. Anything we needed, they were there. The food was excellent, an amazing chef who cooked 5 star food and catered really well for our gluten free diet. The boat Mali Ante is a lovely vessel and was kept spotlessly clean by the crew. The hikes were amazing and certainly gave us challenges but we're so worth it! If you're thinking of a hiking holiday coupled with sailing then this is the holiday to go for! Plus we saw some of Croatia and its beautiful islands - there's so much more to see and we will definitely be back!

- Kay, 20/06/2022 05:11, Travelled with Friend/s

Mein Mann und ich hatten unvergessliche Tage mit einer exzellenten Crew auf dem Boot "Emanuel", tollen Menschen um uns herum in einer familiären Atmosphäre sowie mit beeindruckenden Wanderungen unter der Leitung eines phantastischen Guides! Wir hatten gemeinsam so viel Spaß, dass wir sehr traurig waren beim Abschied. Absolut empfehlenswert!

- Sylke , 04/10/2021 13:57, Travelled in a Couple

From the moment we set foot on board we were made to feel so welcome by the entire team. Nothing could have been improved on. We had an exclusive, luxury cruise. Island hopping and hiking. Swimming off the boat into emerald seas. Soaking up the sun and enjoying amazing spreads of delicious food. Mate shared his knowledge of the mountains and guided us expertly along the trails like a calm shepherd. He took us to a variety of restaurants and we enjoyed every meal. Mate made our adventure one of the most memorable ever. But without the crew none of this would have been possible, professional and cheerful at all times, we felt completely safe in their hands. And we all laughed and smiled like old friends, thank you Mali Ante, Mate and Sail Croatia

- Heather, 20/09/2021 09:39, Travelled with Friend/s

Everyone on the crew was very personal. Our hiking guide Matè knew his trails - a local guide whom we all appreciated as he had restaurant recommendations and things for us to see & do. Everyone from the boat manager to the chef to the young skippers were great. The only thing I would recommend is to change your marketing from 'see Croatia by foot' to 'explore Croatia by hiking trails'. This way people can be more prepare w proper gear such as hiking boots. It was a great challenge and I know everyone had a wonderful time.
