Explorer Cruise

Had amazing trip on the Salve di Mare from Dubrovnik to Split. The boat is beautiful, comfortable rooms, lovely dining lounge along with a fantastic top deck perfect for taking in the views. The crew was delightful and accommodating, making our week enjoyable. Our representative, Vicko, was exceptional—very knowledgeable, fun to be around, always ready with honest recommendations. Met some great people along the way, Croatians are very friendly and genuine people. Wouldn’t hesitate to do this trip again. I absolutely loved the experience!

Unforgettable Week with Sail Croatia – Mlini & Noura Made It Perfect!

Our trip with Sail Croatia aboard the Mlini was nothing short of amazing. The real highlight was our tour guide, Noura – she brought such positive energy, insight, and fun to every part of the journey. From organizing group activities to sharing local tips, she made everyone feel included and cared for. The Mlini crew were just as impressive – friendly, professional, and always making sure we were comfortable and well-fed. The boat was clean and cozy, the food was great, and every stop along the way was stunning. If you're thinking about Sail Croatia, don’t hesitate – and if you get Noura and the Mlini crew, you’re in for something really special!

Great sail and hike holiday

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!

You can choose your friends but not your Sail Croatia Family

This would be a harmonious combo of the people that we were blessed with on the boat, their ability to recover quickly from hangovers and our gorgeous guide Nora + the phenomenal team that ran our small but SHARP home of a boat MLINI!!!!! Naturally, we as humans are always nervous to meet new people but when me and my bestie were blessed with the people that had booked the same boat as ours, it’s like the string theory really proved itself real. Having made amazing memories that I’ll forever cherish with these new people and seeing the beautiful towns and cities that Croatia has to offer. This week was truly one that will be cherished in my mind and soul forever. Nora and the team played a huge part in this, being the glue that held us all together when we felt like the grim reaper was latching on to steal us away to the depths of hell from a hangover that was very quickly erased after breakfast, lunch, a swim stop and a beer. Big love forever to all of you ❤️❤️❤️

Nours boat

Best week of my life. Nour was such a great host for the week and made my experience so fun. She knows how to host a great boat holiday. Made so many life long friends and memories! I’ll book this again.

Best week ever!

Myself and my friends were incredibly grateful to have a boat of like minded people who enjoyed exploring and having fun. However, this was only made possible by the incredible efforts of our guide Nour and the entire crew of our boat on Mlini. Every little detail was more than what we could have imagined, from the organisation of excursions, to group meals and fun games for us to all enjoy. Nour really ensured that our week was one to remember!

Explorer Cruise

We have just returned from a fabulous week sailing the coastline of Croatia! The scenery was beautiful, the activities were thoughtful and well-planned, the crew were exceptional and the food was delicious. The Salve di mare is a gorgeous boat and is meticulously cared for by its crew. From the moment we met Vicko, we knew we were in good hands. He cared for the entire group like a family and we shared many laughs along the way! Thanks Vicko, you were a tremendous group leader and we loved your recommendations. I would highly recommend booking this trip. If you’re looking for a more personal experience, this small group cruise is for you! We boarded as strangers and left having gained many new friendships. Croatia is a beautiful country and we will be back! Thank you!

A Perfect Small Ship Experience for Someone Who Doesn’t Like Cruises

As someone who isn’t a cruise person, the Romantic Star was the perfect size and experience to see parts of Croatia. *Dino Made All the Difference Our cruise manager, Dino, was exceptional. He kept us informed with clear daily summaries and thoughtful recommendations, always available for questions and/or to help guests. He went above and beyond, arranging special dinners (like our anniversary at a sought-after spot in Dubrovnik) and unforgettable experiences—the farm dinner at Hora Hvar was a highlight, with amazing food and wine. *A Warm, Welcoming Group The best part? My fellow passengers were amazing people from all over, and together we formed a tight-knit, fun-loving group. Their warmth and camaraderie made every moment memorable and truly magical. It was a week of laughter. *Top-Notch Crew The crew was outstanding—accommodating dietary needs, keeping the boat spotless, and always friendly. Everything ran smoothly. I’d book again!

Awesome Experience!

My husband and I had a fantastic time on our 7-day cruise! Absolutely would recommend. Vicko was our Sail Croatia Rep and he was THE BEST - super friendly with great recommendations for excursions, restaurants, and a ton of knowledge about Croatia. This truly felt like a vacation because we didn’t have to worry about anything. We were on the Salve di Mare boat and the crew on the boat was top notch. Marko, Vlaho, and Monika in particular were so personable and friendly. They made our stay on the boat comfortable and fun. Also worth noting that I always felt safe on the boat (even when we had windy conditions our captain, Frane, docked the boat with ease).

Cruise Trip

Vicko and the crew made it an incredible experience. Everything from beginning to end was top notch. Vicko, our guide, did an excellent job throughout the trip - he was a joy to be around and made sure everyone had a great time. The crew, especially Marko and Vlaho, were great. Every crew member was so friendly and helpful. My wife and I really enjoyed the trip - it was a fantastic holiday.

Sailing Croatia - Morpheus

My husband and I had the best time on our trip. We sailed on the Morpheus sailboat and thought the boat itself was perfect and so nice. We used the water toys such as the paddle boards daily and had the best skipper - Kiko. He took us to all the best islands and understood what we were looking for out of our trip! Could not recommend our boat or skipper enough. It was the best trip ever and we were sad to leave at the end.

Split to Dubrovnik on Esperanza

Forget those huge cruise ships THIS is the way to travel. Vendrán our guide always made perfect suggestions but you can do as much or as little as you want. Great swim stops every day and lovely clean cabin and boat made for a comfortable week. With fresh cooked food and only 18 on board this was a revelation. I will be booking again. Loved it!

- Lori, 04/06/2025 10:43, Travelled with Friend/s

Fantastic Experience!

Our skipper, Ivan made our experience all the better. His knowledge with the locations, restaurants at each location and his friendliness made our experience all the better!

Exceeded expectations

Dino our cruise manager was exceptional! He was friendly, knowledgeable,,patient, helpful and good humoured for the entire week. We were a small group that could have made things difficult but he expertly drew the group together and was fundamental in ensuring the weeks success. The boat was beautiful and well kept, the Captain and his crew made us feel well cared for and the meals prepared on board were delicious!! All in all a really excellent time!! We will certainly recommend.

An Incredible Trip

What started as a trip with some friends turned into a trip I'm never going to forget. We were lucky to have incredible weather conditions before peak tourist season. Croatia has the clearest water I've ever seen in my life- great for snorkeling. Based off of what we wanted to do, our skipper, Linda, was able to curate a custom trip offering a variety of settings and activities. Getting to relax, explore, and experience the islands of Croatia with our closest friends alone would have been quite enough to make for a memorable trip. What made it a truly unforgettable experience was that we decided about a month ahead of time to plan our wedding for one of the days. We figured there was bond to be a time and place that fit exactly what we wanted. We found our dream location as soon as we docked in Vis. Since we had so much flexibility with our schedule, we were able to spontaneously pick our perfect time and place. Forever thankful for the memories we made on this trip!

Dino Made The Trip Worthwhile

Dino immediately set the tone of our journey — enjoy our wonderful country, learn our history , be safe and ask any question. He was very experienced. The ship was very nice, food was fine , crew was nice, cabins cleaned great . . . but the real credit goes to our cruise manager , Dino . Without a great cruise manager , this would be a very different journey . He was a good listener , gave great suggestions , used What’s App effectively to stay connected with everyone and was sincere . Bravo.

Sail Croatia Customer

The Split return to Split itinerary was excellent and allowed us to see many islands and mainland cities.. Dino, the cruise manager communicated clearly, was organized, helpful, enthusiastic and upbeat. He was always available knowledgeable and entertaining.We couldn’t ask for a better manager! Dino guided us to incredible experiences such as the Hora Farm dinner, and also to restaurants and sites in each place we stopped. The crew on the Romantic Star was helpful and professional. The ship was clean and the accommodations were good. I would recommend Sail Croatia to anyone traveling to Croatia.

Holiday Fun on the Romantic Star

We just completed our 7 day cruise with Sail Croatia aboard the Romantic Star. We made new friends with people from around the world who enjoyed the food, sun, and wine in Croatia as much as we did. What made the trip special was having Dino assigned to our boat as the cruise manager. He was funny, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to book optional dinners and activities that were special and unique experiences. He also providing valuable information and suggestions throughout the day which was immensely helpful. This trip far exceeded our expectations thanks to a wonderful group of guests and Dino and the crew going the extra mile.

Fantastic and Relaxing Time

Dino. He was subperb. Awesome attitude and enthusiastic. The sights and activities were also wonderful. Food, bedding/linens, and demeanor of serving staff crew members would have very much improved the experience. Dino is a gem and deserves every accolade and reward. Well beyond expectations!

Fun Croatia cruise

Our group’s ages were mixed, 40s to 80s, 3 generations and 3 nationalities. Cruisers were similar in being interested in where they were and also relaxing. All enjoyed a drink. Group size was good, enabling interactions with a range of people. People met up in wine bars and restaurants to share stories and compare their travels. It made for fun times. Our guide, Klara was great. She gave clear presentations & shared information electronically on the highlights of our next island and what to see and do there. She always answered questions clearly and provided links eg on laundries. Boat spaces were good, most people enjoying the sundeck daily. Swim stops were well organised with easy water access . Range of activities offered was broad. I loved all the islands. They differed in histories, attractions, opportunities and atmosphere.. Staff were friendly and efficient. Food was great, Enjoyed the Captain’s dinner, would have liked to hear him speak more about our lovely boat.

A Once-in-a-Lifetime Experience in Croatia with Sail Croatia

From the moment we were greeted by Elena and Tim it felt like stepping into a dream. Sail Croatia is breathtaking on its own, but this experience took it to a whole new level — it was otherworldly. Every detail was curated to perfection, blending rich history, jaw-dropping natural beauty, and warm, authentic hospitality. But what truly set this apart was the people behind the experience. Elena and Tims passionate, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in making every moment unforgettable was exceptional. If you're looking for something truly extraordinary, magical, and soul-stirring, this is it. Sail Croatia stole our hearts, and this journey made it unforgettable. We’ll be talking about it for the rest of our lives.Thank you for a trip that was nothing short of celestial. 💫🇭🇷

Another Great Trip with Sail Croatia

Mia and the crew of the Olimp made our second trip on the Olimp as good as the first! Beautiful country, people and boat. Truly outstanding!

- Janice, 03/06/2025 10:40, Travelled with Friend/s

Can it get any better!!

Where do I start?? From the meticulously clean boat to the abundance of tasty healthy food to the awesome staff who couldn't do enough & went out of their way to help to our tour guide Nicos! And we haven't even mentioned the beautiful Croatian islands that we stopped at all bursting with centuries of history & hidden restaurants & wine bars. If it hadn't been for Nicos we would never have found some of these gorgeous places. A special mention goes out to crew member Max who apart from serving our meals & keeping us well hydrated, he so kept us entertained. I was not sure about going on a cruise with 30 total strangers but it was one of the best weeks & one I will not easily forget.

- Julie , 03/06/2025 07:50, Travelled in a Couple

Well done!

From booking to check out, Sail Croatia ran a well organized operation. On arrival at the boat our bags were loaded onboard and we were greeted by the captain. Our guides for the bike rides, Mila and Mario, were excellent. They explained the trails and provided history and information on the places we visited. We were pleasantly surprised by the food at all meals, it was delicious and fresh. Thank you chef! The crew took care of us at all meals and in between (thank you Halim and Donche). Would recommend Sail Croatia

Sail Croatia, simply stunning,

We had the greatest experience. From the time we booked our trip, then embarked and met Mia at Port Gruz our Tour Manager, every part of the trip exceeded our expectations. The ship, Olimp, was luxurious in every detail. The Captain and crew were brilliant, nothing was too much trouble and every one of them were kind and courteous. The trip itself was brilliant, Croatia, their islands and stunning coastline are all breathtakingly beautiful. Thanks to Mia and the crew for making our trip so memorable.

Another Fabulous Cycling/Sailing Teip

What a great crew!! Our cycling tour guides Tonka and Lola are knowledgeable, fun, supportive, excellent communicators and educators. It is easy to learn from them. Our food was amazing everyday because of an excellent Chef and Sous Chef. Mario, made sure are food was delivered hot, quickly and efficiently with lots of warm smiles. He was constantly observant as he met our needs before we even asked.. Ivan and Ilia were available should there be other needs we had. Anytime we asked!! All these crew members did it with smiles and warm hearts wanting to make our time the best ever!! A big Thank You to all including the Sail-Croatia Office staff who kept us informed before our trip!!

The best holiday ever! Cycle and Sail Split South

Just back from a fantastic week aboard Dionis. Our guide, Ivica was so knowledgeable and being Croatian, he had so much local knowledge.. The routes were a great mix and being the Split southern route, some aspects (on a push bike rather than e bike) were challenging but that’s what I wanted! Ivica always checked in with everyone to make sure we were all enjoying it. I spent most of my time at the back of the group, where our guide Calum kept me motivated and made the hills less of an issue by playing some cracking tunes! We had lots to chat about and plenty of laughs! Our group (8) quickly bonded and we enjoyed meals out as well as cocktails at Massimo cocktail bar in Korcula. The crew on board Dionis were all excellent and looked after us so well. There was so much food! The best way to spend a week - waking up in new ports and exploring on 2 wheels is so much fun. Croatia is beautiful. Enjoyed the swim stops (although the sea is cold in May). 100% recommend this.

Cycle Sail Southern Route Split return

What a fantastic week in Croatia, cycling with a wonderful group of people. Our leads - Ivica and Calum were brilliant so knowledgeable always making sure everyone was ok, very helpful for dinner bookings they would organise this for us. I cannot fault anything it was just simply amazing. I would highly recommend it. The cycling helped us go to places we wouldn’t normally visit. We got information about each place we cycled to and the dinner stop at Gazul on day 2 cycle was truly spectacular. The group chat each day and morning briefing was so useful explaining the ride ahead, The ship Dionis was so nice and the crew were so friendly, the food served was divine. I am just so pleased we booked this. It’s a big 5 star review from me. Cath Burrus

Croatia Sailing Dreams - Exceed Expectations!

Just wrapped up the most unforgettable week aboard Hound Dog (Sail Croatia catamaran) — absolutely phenomenal! The views - Breathtaking. The vibes-laidback and immaculate. Every bay we anchored felt like a private slice of paradise. Every town we visited gave us an opportunity to meet wonderful people and savor their delicious food. Huge shoutout to our amazing skipper Ante Milanovic - calm, confident, and knew all the secret spots. And Josipa Pavlovic was a total gem, keeping everything running smoothly with a smile; serving us amazing meals and ensuring we were all taken care of. If you’re thinking about sailing Croatia, we highly recommend using Sail Croatia - a responsible, accommodating and professional team. This was pure magic from start to finish.

Best vacation of my life! The people of Sail Croatia as well as the people of Croatia were so friendly and accommodating. The boat was big, spacious, clean and beautiful! The islands were amazing and the bike rides beyond fun and exciting, but most importantly was the crew of our boat, our hostess and especially our cycling guide were all off the chart wonderful! To top it all off was the beauty, food and culture of Croatia! Unbelievable!!
