We had an amazing time on the Almissa! The Explorer trip was perfect for all ages. There were several families with young adults so we all made new friends. Everything was fantastic from the food to the swim stops and gorgeous islands to the fun group of people we spent the week with! Thank you for an amazing vacation.

The trip was awesome from the start in Dubrovnic to the end at Split. Our Skipper Nikola planned the stops with our input and his sugestions enhanced the trip. Restaurants he booked for us served Croation cuisine and were excellent value. Our hostess, Ivana, catered perfectly. serving typical Croation breakfasts and lunches. I speak for the 12 of us onboard, that this is a memory to cherish. We will be back.

We loved our time on the navigator cruise, it might be our favourite part of our trip so far! We made life long friends and memories. Our host Johnny ( Ivca?) was amazing at keeping us informed and ensuring we were having a good time.

The Crew on Eos were professional & fulfilled their roles with friendliness & care. In addition the cycling crew had safety in mind all the time whilst also recognising & catering for different abilities. Jošco was very knowledgeable & informative with local history, nature & the geography of the islands which made our holiday so much more interesting.during the daily cycles. We appreciated the stops for coffee & a swim during the rides. Lovre dealt with a life threatening medical emergency with maturity & calmness whilst also resolving a random conflict with a stranger. Jošco dealt with the logistics of the medical incident with professionalism & care to those involved. Two outstanding employees. I was surprised the cycling crew were not given the cycling ability information we had all submitted - this would have helped them have knowledge prior to our arrival.

I would like to commend the amazing crew aboard the Novi Dan! To Captain Vlado for sailing us safely through the Adriatic Sea, Toni for ensuring the boat was clean and taking us out for water sports, Lovre for the amazing food throughout the trip, Marko and Adriano for their great service ensuring we always had what we wanted! And to Elena for making sure we got the best out of everything! She was really good helping us get to where we needed to go, recommendations in town and good company! They were an extraordinary team who worked tirelessly day and night to ensure our time on Sail Croatia was an unforgettable experience!

We really enjoyed cycling the Croatian Islands and our knowledgeable guides shared many interesting details about the history and culture of Croatia. We did two trips, Split Northern return and the Split South to Dubrovnik. Both were fantastic trips and different in their own way. Tonka and Lola guided our first journey and did a great job of supporting us on our old school pedal bikes. Marin and Karlo were our second set of guides and once again provided excellent support for what was our first e-bike experience. The Sail Croatia ships (Mali Ante and Columbo) were both comfortable and are staffed by an amazing crew. The captain and crew's hard work and dedication is reflected in the pristine condition of the ships. The food for both cruises was delicious and plentiful. We did a Sail Croatia cycle tour in 2018 and enjoyed it so much we came back.! This second adventure exceeded our expectations and left us with some wonderful holiday memories.

Perfect weather! Beautiful boat with excellent staff, nothing was too much trouble.. Excellent food, various diets catered for, and a good range of drinks! But best of all was where we were … from Dubrovnik to Split we anchored in islands of such beauty and grace, so much history and interest and terrific cycle riding with excellent guides - I honestly didn’t want to leave.. Without a doubt I will be returning, with Sail Croatia!!!

Great crew, great people and boat. Our rep was awesome Tim! Couldn’t ask for a better time

The crew on the boat were all so great. Food was very good, and the service from all was fantastic. Our tour guide Tim was also amazing and really made our whole week on Sail Croatia so easy with the constant information and just in general a great guy! Thank you for such a great week!

This was a 5 star holiday from start to finish. We had the perfect balance of exercise and free time to relax. The boat and cabins were spacious and comfortable. Lucy & Harris served us the most delicious breakfast & 3 course lunches every day. Our lead guide Josko was amazing! He gave us a daily briefing on the route and was highly organised. I felt so safe while biking on the roads, nothing was left to chance. Josko had so much local knowledge and gave us a taste of Croatian history. We learned about this beautiful country while cycling through some of the most panoramic views I've ever seen. One thing I will say was that any request my group had was accomadated immediately. I fell in love with Croatia and it's people. We are already planning our next trip. I highly recommend Sail Croatia, just do it!!! Nessa Darcy

I enjoyed the daily activity and tha ability to immerse yourself in the Croatian culture. The people are very friendly and accommodating.

We had a great experience on the Split - Dubrovnik sail. Our sail rep Tim was amazing, very welcoming and well organised. He was able to give us all the information about the places we visited and the recommendations for many different things, and advocate for us when needed. The whole crew was amazing, from food and drinks to general friendliness, we are definitely going to miss them all. We had a great group of people on board and Tim was able to keep all 24 of us in line, would definitely do this trip again.
- Lilly, 13/06/2025 11:49, Travelled with Friend/s
A diverse group was bought together by our Reps ability to cater for everyone and ensure we were all involved early on to build connections that continued throughout the trip. Tim’s planning and recommendations were a huge success when leaving the boat. He was able to organise a group of drunk individuals to make it to venues partnered with sail Croatia for ripper drink/entry deals

TIMMY - he was the absolute goat and made our boat so much fun and was always there to support anyone!

We were a large group of 8 couples- our ship Eos was a perfect size to cater for us and other guests. Very comfortable cabins and large social spaces. The food was very good and the staff very attentive. We booked the cycling trip - the bikes were a good quality and we loved exploring the various islands on our bikes each day - all very well led by our excellent tour manager Joške. Highly recommend!
- Genevieve , 13/06/2025 07:34, Travelled with Friend/s
My husband andI traveled with another couple. We had a wonderful week. It was our first cruise and I was apprehensive. For me, the small number of people was essential. We were lucky that the other travelers were all kind and fun. And our leader, Anita, was terrific. Always eager to help, fun to talk with and very knowledgaable about so many aspects of being in Croatia.
- Mary, 13/06/2025 03:31, Travelled with Friend/s
The entire Mali Anti crew and guides were wonderful. The boat was clean, comfortable, with plenty of room. The sailing itinerary and cycling were extremely well planned out. The food was excellent and more than what could have been expected. Other guests were quite friendly and fun to be with. We were fortunate to have really good weather for sailing, cycling, and wandering at every stop. Everyone on the crew seemed to go above and beyond to make our experience great. This included the captain (Ivica), the sailors (Ivan and Ilija), the waiter (Mario - he was exceptional), the chef (Ivica - who was truly wonderful) and helper (Antonio). The two guides Miranda and Ana were outstanding throughout our entire trip. (Suggestions - the rooms could have a few more hooks to hang things on and the mirrors in the bathrooms need to be lowered about 6 inches)
- Bob, 13/06/2025 03:24, Travelled with Friend/s
This cycling cruise was the BEST ever. I loved the quaintness of the smaller cruiseship & the crew was wonderful. Our cycle guides Luciya & Ivan P were personable, knowledgeable about Croatia & its history, super fun and safety was always a priority. Our passenger group really bonded from the beginning & I now have new friends around the world I can go visit & keep in touch with. Go For It & take a Sail Croatia Cruise
- Denise, 12/06/2025 22:49, Travelled with Friend/s
The staff on the ship were so great and patient with a group of "old" ladies. The food was fabulous! Because I wake up so early, the chef always offered to get me some tea even if it was 2 hours before the kitchen opening. Our guides, Miranda and Anna were exceptional. On the 2nd day, I realized I wasn't going to be able to climb the hills and Miranda offered to give me her ebike. That isn't something that happens very often.

Sail Croatia crew were fantastic and great hospitality. We loved the swim stops and all the islands. Beds were comfortable and food was good. Would highly recommend. Our boat leader Vicko was the BEST!!!!!

We went with 3 other couples for one week tri[p around the islands. Tony and Mateo were the best crew ever and are our new friends :-) The trip and suggestions Tony the Captain made were perfect and he was so polite and interactive with us all. Mateo is a great Chef and did all the shopping also, but so much more. They worked so well as "a team" Hope to see them again soon. Bob and Taryn

The crew on the Big Blue was particularly great, with attention to detail when it came to both cleaning and serving. The meals were delicious and they were always kind and accommodating if you were a little late on meal times. The boat was always spotless and felt very safe and clean. They were fun to interact with and made sure we had a fun time always. Thanks guys!

My family and I had an incredible week on our private sailing tour from Split to Dubrovnik. The communication was excellent every step of the way and we would hands down do it again! We feel extra lucky to have been paired with our skipper, Linda. She worked with us to create an ideal itinerary based on our goals for the trip and she had excellent recommendations every stop of the way. We loved exploring the beautiful islands of Croatia this way. Would highly recommend this unique experience for your next vacation!
- Sophia, 12/06/2025 00:34, Travelled with Family
Sail Croatia made our week of cycling and sailing the Croatian islands amazing. The staff were great and our fellow travellers were all very easy to travel with fun to get to know . They were organized and the food was terrific. I was worried I wasn’t fit enough but I did well on the bikes.
- Files , 11/06/2025 19:06, Travelled with Family
Week was amazing, one of the greatest weeks I have had on my trip so far. Marin was amazing and it felt so relaxing as he had organised everything for us and always gave the best recommendations for everything and was very professional. The crew were perfect couldn’t fault a thing about them, they would bend over backwards for any of us if we needed. I would only do another sail Croatia week if Marin is my rep and I am on the tuna boat with the same crew
- Will, 11/06/2025 19:04, Travelled with Friend/s
My entire family loved cruising from one beautiful Croatian island to the next and touring around each stop on e-bikes. We got to see much more of each island than if we had hiked or just stayed overnight in each port town/city. The crew & guides are lovely people: professional, friendly & kind. Matilda & Sardan are also skilled bike riders who were patient & accommodated all the varied skill levels. They were knowledgable about each stop, offering wonderful suggestions for dining & site-seeing while on our own to explore. We met wonderful new friends and enjoyed traveling with every single person on our boat. This trip was absolutely AMAZING from start to finish - I can't recommend it enough! My family and I are still stunned at the many incredible views we biked to and the fun of having an active vacation and meeting great people while enjoying wonderful food and wine and exploring so much of beautiful Croatia. We are SO glad we went on this unforgettable adventure!

The staff, crew, tour leaders and guests on this boat were a fantastic bunch. Loved every minute. Had an issue with my room. Not what I was expecting for the price and supplement but that wasn’t going to spoil my trip. Boat was great, bar area very social. George n Danilo were great and George’s food was very good. Danny on the bar was the best barman very efficient and fun. Ivancic and Mario were a superb team, we have cycled with Ivancic before. He will never let you down he’s a very focussed customer driven guide. Very trustworthy. We’d like to return but we have visited most of the islands on your itinerary’s… any chance you could mix it up abit? Thanks again. Great holiday x

We were on a fantastic brand new boat - there were lots of teething issues on her maiden voyage and Nicola, our captain, was super amazing at doing work arounds to make sure our trip was awesome - throw in Ivana , our degreed maritime expert in sailing, cooking and just generally making all our lives so easy and you have a great holiday. I found Nicola engaging when he needed to be and otherwise left us to do our own thing. He made recommendations of places to sail and eat and they were perfect and enjoyed by all. And a first class captain to boot. But please fix the niggles on Jolene - she is a beautiful catamaran but has teething issues

This was our first time visiting Croatia and first time on a small ship cruise. Both exceeded our expectations and we are already planning for a return trip. The Explorer cruise was a perfect, stress free way to explore the stunning islands of Croatia. Our tour guide, Vicko, was great. Always a smile on his face and incredibly knowledgeable of all things “Croatian”. He was always available and assisted us with extras like cabs and dinner reservations . We loved his daily destination talks and his take on which excursions would give our group the best experiences. We traveled with another couple and our Explorer cruise was a great combination of travelers from many countries whom we were able to get to know over the course of the week. I also want to give a shout out to the Salve di Mare crew who ensured we had a fabulous experience each and every day.

This tour is a great blend of cruising and riding. The guides, Miranda and Ana, were attentive to a fault, doing their best to keep everyone happy., as were the ship's crew. Guides and crew themselves seemed delighted to be there! The ship, the Mali Ante, was beautiful, clean, and well-run. The riding was well-planned, taking us along relatively easy routes in the countryside, and giving us a taste of many towns and villages, The meals were sumptuous and lovingly prepared. Someone considering this tour should know: - the rides are short, on average, so if they want more focus on cycling, this may not be the tour for them - the saddles for the e-bikes are hard and flat, so it might be an idea to bring a gel cover for comfort - the crew does smoke, and the smoke seems to come into some of the rooms at times, through the ventilation system. - the meals were very meat-heavy Altogether, with these caveats, this was a beautiful tour, thoroughly enjoyed by all.
- Anne, 11/06/2025 05:59, Travelled with Friend/s
We cruised from Dubrovnik to Split in early June and loved the experience. Vedran, Yuri, Evo, Almira and the rest of the crew made the trip so special. The ship was impeccable, the breakfast and lunches were wonderful, the swim stops were chilly but fun and the excursions were worth it. Vedran’s daily briefings were informative but also had us all laughing. Wonderful group of travelers on our boat. Met the best people. Was already getting crowded as this is a popular area. I would strongly recommend Sail Croatia especially the Olimp!

The crew of Ante Mocic and Fani (our hostess) made our tour exceptional. Ante is an excellent skipper always making us feel safe and cared for. He listened to our desires and went above and beyond to secure the best mooring spots and provide us with great recommendations for touring the islands. Fani is an outstanding hostess. Her meals were heavenly and her personality bright and bubbly. She was accommodating to dietary restrictions and extremely service oriented. The cuisine provided on this trip went above and beyond our expectations. The Croation islands are gorgeous and the villages are charming and laden with history. This trip was perfect in every way! Thank you Sail Croatia!

The itinerary, the crew/staff, and comfort of the bedrooms/bath were top-notch. We truly enjoyed the daily swim stops (whether we swam or not), each gorgeous island, and the ship's facilities. Our tour manager, Klara, took very good care of us, with excellent recommendations at each stop.

We enjoyed each destination, the swim stops and the variety of experiences. Our chief stew was amazing for coordinating activities, both free and paid, but we didn't do many excursions as they are pricey for the value, We still found plenty of fun things to do in each port! The accomodations and food fell short of our expectations though - there were three people on the boat with dietary restrictions or vegetarian, and we were only given extra services of the veggies/starch with no protein substitute. I often left hungry as we were unable to eat a lot for what was provided. The serving staff were also not accommodating, often dismissive or talking over our attempts to sort out alternatives for food. We also ran out of toilet paper a few times, and the showers didn't drain. Overall the itinerary made the trip worth while, but would hope to see a better effort to accommodate guests who don't eat meat.
