We sailed from Split to Dubrovnik, with our captain Ivan. It was such a great week, everything was first class and the knowledge of Ivan just topped off our week.

We had an absolutely fabulous time with Sail Croatia! Dino and all of the crew were attentive, informative and friendly. We loved the Tempera and would recommend this trip to anyone!
- Kristen, 16/06/2025 14:12, Travelled in a Couple
We had the most amazing time. The boat crew were amazing and friendly and very tentative. Halim our waiter did an exceptional job. Our guides Marin and Andro were amazing. Marin and Andro made sure we were safe at all times. Thier attention to our safety was imperative. Marin is so knowledgeable about his country and we learned so much about the history of Croatia and all the islands we visited. He was an excellent guide and we would request him if we do this tour again! The best and most memorable trip we have ever been on. The only critique I have is 2 pillows for the bed would have been nice and more or better wine selections. Thank you Sail Croatia!!

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

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

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

When approaching a. small ship experience we were not sure what to expect. What we received quieted our concerns and quickly turned into magic. Staff ♥️♥️♥️ Food ♥️♥️♥️ Fellow passengers (who quickly felt like family ) ♥️♥️♥️ My goal was to be the first one in the water and last one out ✔️ Pace of the day - perfection. We have riverboat cruised (Amawaterway), ocean liners (Regent and Oceania) but this one is SPECIAL. THANK YOU 🌼 Shout outs to Marco and Vlaho and Monica. Delights. Vhocho was our Sail Croatia rep. I will be singing your praises to all when I get home. Peace -

This cruise was so fun. The group of people on board were incredible and many became friends by the end of the trip. Dino, who was the guide was incredible, very funny, helpful, and gave some great recommendations/suggestions for things. I loved how it was set out - breakfast, then swim stop in the morning, lunch and then exploring the town in the afternoon. The only downside to that is that in the summer months it’s quite hot exploring town in the afternoon and since the boat leaves early next morning you may feel rushed. The reason I didn’t give 5 stars was because while they were as accomodating to dietary needs as possible, the food was below average for me being a vegetarian. Meals were undercooked and not well balanced. The non vegetarians said their food was great. Overall, I would recommend this boat if you want relaxation, exploration and a great time.
- Vee, 16/06/2025 06:23, Travelled in a Couple
Amazing week onboard Tempera with great crew. The crew worked hard to ensure everything was perfect. Dino was fantastic as tour manager with superb knowledge and great personality. He ensured we all got the most out of our week and provided a high level of personal service. Food was plentiful and to a high standard. All in all a brilliant week!
- Matt, 16/06/2025 06:12, Travelled in a Couple
The Mali Ante crew & our two tour guides worked hard to make our trip the success it was. We cannot thank them enough. The food was generous & of a high standard.

Cruise Director Dino was excellent. He consistently exceeded expectations. Not only did he keep us well informed of our upcoming schedule, he always provided guidance and recommendations for our free time that were very helpful. Captain and crew were also first rate. They were always friendly and very good at their respective jobs. Would recommend this to any friend.
- Rob, 16/06/2025 04:47, Travelled in a Couple
The tour leaders (Ivica and Mario) were great hosts, made sure we had a safe and interesting bike tour. The food was excellent, and the cycling on the different islands was fantastic. What a beautiful country ! I would not hesitate to recommend this tour.
- Terry , 16/06/2025 04:03, Travelled Solo
Just completed 7 day Split to Dubrovnik on the Tempera. Everything aboard was thoughtfully arranged and to a high standard. Our cabin was spacious enough for our needs, had strong water pressure in shower, and beds were comfy. Highlights were the fun and lighthearted fellow passengers from all over the world - we ate, drank, and laughed all week. And our consummate professional tour guide Dino - he had us completely dialed in on each island. Excellent recommendations, clear communications, and a true Croaia expert. He was a huge asset to our trip. Entire crew was professional and hardworking, especially server Maks who kept everyone fed and watered. Would not hesitate to book another Sail Croatia journey!
- Nicole Goodwin, 16/06/2025 03:44, Travelled in a Couple
We're grateful to the crew of the Romantic Star, and to our stellar guide, Anita, for making this trip smooth and memorable. The food was great, the ship was kept spotlessly clean, the swim stops were wonderful, and the service was above and beyond. In addition to Anita, who seemed to anticipate all our needs, a special shout-out to master sailor Dragan and waiters Hrvoye and Toni for their helpfulness and friendliness. We didn't love the wine tasting/tour on Korčula, but that's a minor glitch in an otherwise fabulous week.

We had an amazing 7 day Cruise on MS KATARINA from Split to Dubrovnik and return to Split.. Everything from the wonderful girls in the booking department, though to the hostess and crew of the MS KATARINA was exceptional. It is amazing how much difference it makes to be sailing on a family owned vessel. The crew and stewardesses were extremely helpful and the service they provided was excellent. The son was the Captain, the father was a deck hand and the daughter and a cousin were our very capable stewardesses. This ensured we were very well looked after and nothing was a problem for the whole team. When I ask for a different dryer Rose than they had onboard they went ashore at our next port of call and purchased some locally for me😜👍. And of course our guide and hostess KLARA was AMAZING. Her knowledge and great sense of humour was appreciated by all passengers. Klara went out of her way to ensure all our on board and onshore experiences went like clockwork. She is an amazing host

There are many mysteries in life - like which came first, the chicken or the egg, or the origin of the universe. However, one of life’s greatest mysteries is how Francesca can effortlessly wrangle 15 mature-age alcoholic cretins with grace and style, yet lacks the courage to jump from the not-so-lofty heights of the lower deck into the bluest waters you’ve ever seen. One taking far more bravery and skill than the other. Another mystery is how Mateo managed to hide his other six arms for an entire week. That man surely deserves a spot in the Guinness World Records for the most drinks made in a single day All jokes aside the entire crew of Mlini were outstanding. We came as guests and left feeling like family. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for a truely unforgettable week. Lots of love, Harry and Nat

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.
- Rebecca, 15/06/2025 02:10, Travelled with Family
Everything about the cruise was amazing! The crew, the destinations, and the food served on board were all great. Aside from enjoying the beautiful Croatia islands, I also really enjoyed our swim stops! The water was a little cold at the beginning of June, but not unbearable. It was wonderful getting to know the other travelers on our boat. Sail Croatia is a 10/10 experience for families, friends, or even solo travelers.
- Zachary, 15/06/2025 00:50, Travelled in a Couple
I enjoyed the swim stops. My room was nice, although the last full day the tanks definitely needed to be changed, as I had a room below. It would have been nice to have the names on the back of the bikes. Most people came in groups, We did not come in a group, so, we had to keep asking people their names. The Josic was very professional. I was not sure what Calam's responsibilities. The bar was very expensive for the extremely short wine pour. It was discussed by most passengers on the boat. Lunch was heavy. Maybe better to have dinner? This would allow people to relax a bit after the ride. The last two rides were short. Often I was not quite sure where we were going to stop. It did not follow the brochure. Captain said we needed to stop in different places.

Our sail week was perfect, from the crew, our sail manager and the boat itself. The swim spots and places we docked each night were amazing and our sail manager, Tim, was really organised each day and responsive to everyone’s needs. We did have some issues with the AC in our room but the team were able to fix it a few days in and Tim was really responsive to this. Overall, highly recommend Sail Croatia to anyone thinking about it - it’s a week we will remember always and have made some amazing friendships along the way 🫶🏼

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.
- Anne, 13/06/2025 19:51, Travelled with Family
Our second trip to Croatia was very special for several reasons. The cruise itinerary was varied and excellent overall. Anita was a superb tour manager, always making an extra effort to make everyone happy. She communicates very well, is highly organized, works extraordinarily hard, and always has a smile on her face. The Romantic Star ship is well designed, very comfortable, and the food is healthy and tasty, We were also fortunate that the other passengers were friendly and interesting. I would definitely recommend this cruise to my friends. I do feel that more time should be spent on land. We often landed mid to late afternoon. I feel that the educational component should be enhanced (eg more discussion of Croatian history). I also feel that the ship should overnight in Komiza instead of Vis. But overall the experience was wonderful. Thank you!

I cannot fault this trip! Elena the tour manager was amazing- she was organised, enthusiastic and so personable. She went above and beyond for everything, gave great recommendations and was just a beautiful human being. The Novi Dan crew was also amazing- thank you Captain Vlado for taking us to unreal swimming spots and thanks to Chef Lovre and the rest of the crew (Toni, Marko and Adriano) for the delicious food, service and hilarious conversations. I would highly recommend the canyoning excursion if you have a chance and don’t mind a workout- it was a once in a lifetime experience. Overall, I had an unforgettable week, with beautiful people in beautiful places. Only complaint is that I’m so sad that it’s ended- thanks so much Sail Croatia ❤️❤️

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!

My Fiance and I are 26 and 31. We booked the Explorer cruise on the Salve Di Mare from Split to Dubrovnik. We truly believe we picked the best cruise option and the nicest boat. Check-in was easy, our Sail Croatia guide Vicko was simply amazing from start to finish. The food, too, was exceptionally good - some of the best food we had on our whole trip. The entire staff was friendly and pleasant to be around. We had a change of route due to a failed refueling, and the crew adapted our route nicely to still have us spend the day at a lovely island. In summary, we had the time of our lives and can't imagine visiting Croatia any other way. 10./10.

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!

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

From the moment Sail Croatia began, Marin and Augustin greeted us with a smile and warm smile that made me feel very welcome as a solo traveller. Little did I know, this was just the beginning of one of the most incredible weeks of my life!! My other passengers were nothing short of some of the best, funniest and kindest people I have ever met. Quickly we all became best friends. Leo, Chef Marin, Toppa and Captain all made the experience absolutely amazing with their expertise and skill in everything they did. The week ran so smoothly thanks to the crew, and I cannot believe how quickly it all went. Pretty much we woke up, ate, swam, party, repeat! The week was an absolute dream and I am so grateful for the experience ❤️ Don’t hesitate, just book it. Absolutely worth the money!!
- Ciara, 11/06/2025 12:29, Travelled Solo
I had the best time on sail Croatia filled with new friendships and fun! The crew on board worked above and beyond to deliver the best service and ensure we all could have the best experience! Our rep, Marin had a lot of respect for each of us and provided support whenever needed. He was very experienced and informative when discussing the upcoming plans/ excursions at lunch, giving recommendations and personal opinion, and he became a good friend to us all. Credits to the chef- the food was delicious and catered for vegetarian (we were well fed!) and our bartender Leo, who made sure we were having fun and knew how to party in the evenings! Of course, we couldn’t have done it without our captain and skipper getting us to all of the beautiful islands and taking us to amazing swim stop places! Overall, the crew helped make my week the best it could be and I couldn’t have asked for a better team!
