Clara and the crew were absolutely exceptional. I had such an amazing time on the boat because of these amazing people. Clara and her knowledge and organisation of the excursions and her ability to mix with everyone on the boat made everyone feel at home. Chef Alex got me up every morning with his breakfast and kept us fed right up to dinner with his 3 course meal. The rest of the crew were also all exceptional and it wouldn’t have been as great without them. I would recommend this week to anyone!

Not only was the location of the cruise stunning but the experience was made so much better by the crew of Salve de Mare and our guide Vicko. Every day was laid out for us in advance with advice on the best excursions and places to visit. The crew of the ship was always attentive and the food was delicious. Vicko was personable, knowledgeable and truly cared about our experience. Overall, the entire trip from start to finish was annazing and made for one of if not the best trips of my life.

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.

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!

I was a bit nervous going into this trip since it was my first solo adventure, but it turned out to be one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. Clara and the rest of the crew made me feel so welcome and created such a fun, relaxed atmosphere on board. Everything from the itinerary to the people was incredible. I couldn’t have asked for a better way to travel solo. Highly recommend!

I really enjoyed sailing from Split to Dubrovnik on the Almissa. It's a lovely boat, with really nice, clean rooms and a great top deck to enjoy the views from. The crew were lovely, friendly and made the week fun. Our rep Vicko was fab - there didn't seem to be a thing about Croatia and the islands we visited he didn't know. The food was the definite highlight - we had very generous portions of delicious food. I loved it.

We had so much fun on Sail Croatia!! It was such a great week and the crew and our amazing guide Noura really made the whole experience for us. They were all so kind, accomodating and knowledgeable! We made such good friends with everyone on our boat and made memories for a lifetime. Croatia is an absolute dream, thank you for having us!

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!

Our time on Olimp was absolutely fantastic right from the start. Everything on the boat was first class, including the meals and we can’t praise the crew highly enough, they really made our trip.

From my first inquiry to the completion of our sailing trip all the staff were extremely professional, knowledgeable and helpful. A very special thank you to our skipper Mislav and hostess Dora. They were both wonderful. Very accommodating, friendly, knowledgeable and great to travel with. It made for a unique holiday and lifetime memories. Thank you to all the staff at Sail Croatia.

With 3 20-something-year-old kids beginning to go in different directions, we were looking to explore Croatia together and solidify a vacation full of lifelong family memories together. I stumbled upon Sail Croatia as we looked for ways to see the coastal cities and islands. Boy, were we glad we did! An extra bonus was the ability to combine a bit of adventure and activity through a biking cruise. I can't say enough positive things about our experience on Mali Luka and the wonderful crew and captain. Our leaders Mila and Mario, were full of knowledge, experience, hospitality, attention to detail, thoughtfulness, kindness and a passion for the beauty and history of their country. The entire experience was top-notch. The meals and service on board were exceptional and delivered with a smile - always. We loved getting to know so many people from across the world with peace and trust and hospitality. We will forever cherish our memories and new friends from our Sail Croatia experience!

The trip was easy to book, with lots of helpful tips and instructions on how to find to the ship in Split harbour. The itinerary was just perfect, island hopping everyday and stopping for swimming while spending a relaxing morning sailing and sunbathing on deck. Our tour host, Dino, made our trip truly memorable as well as the other guests we spent our week with. Dino was amazing, such a delightful guy. Our group is still messaging each other on the WhatsApp chat that Dino set up. We were informed each day of what to expect, what we could see, what time we were setting off, where to eat, drink, best places for anything that any guest was looking for. The holiday was a delightful balance of being well looked after whilst freedom to see/do as much as we wanted. Remember to bring more long-sleeved clothing if travelling in May as evenings are cool. Lunch was a tasty 3-course cooked meal which I would have preferred as a buffet selection personally. Definitely recommend the trip!
- Tamara, 04/06/2025 10:47, Travelled with Family
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
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!

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!

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
Took this trip with my family as a last hurrah before my sister gets married. It was everything and more I could have hoped for! I truly believe it was the best way to see Croatia. We did the cycling cruise and visited so many incredible places on the islands we wouldn’t have been able to see otherwise. Our boat was always clean, the meals were FANTASTIC, but what really made it was the crew and our cycling guides. Haleem, one of our crew members, catered to every need and was always around to chat with us or teach us a new card game. Our cycling guides, Mila and Mario, were so knowledgeable and made sure to always provide us with the most out of every opportunity. Would do this trip again in a heartbeat!

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
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!!

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.

This trip was really amazing! Loved the crew, and Marin was the best! Met so many great people and got to explore a lot of Croatia! They even did a great job with my diet. Would highly recommend!!
- Anonymous, 02/06/2025 14:21, Travelled Solo
What an amazing experience - see more of the real Croatia away from tourist ports!. Our tour leaders were fantastic. Ivica was so knowledgeable about the islands and history and always very aware for our safety. Calhum and his tales and folklore of each town… and of course the best music choice! The whole crew - so attentive to all our needs. Azra and Ino cooked up amazing food and great desserts. Keno always had a smile as he welcomed us to breakfast and served up our drinks. The captain Mate and Ilya- excellent boatman and of course captain Mate’s boat was beautiful and well maintained. Very modern bathrooms with great hot water! My one word of VERY important advice - get the e-bike!!! Especially with loop! Can’t wait for the next one!
- Monika, 02/06/2025 13:35, Travelled Solo
I had the best week on the boat! Marin was so courteous and always knew how to put a smile on my face and everyone else’s! We had the best time ever and can’t recommend it enough. Maximum Points!!! ❤️

Marin made the whole trip so amazing!!!! He was always there when we needed him, not just with answers or help, but with genuine care and kindness. He went out of his way to make sure everyone felt comfortable, and his fun, positive energy made every moment on board even more special.
- Molly, 02/06/2025 12:44, Travelled with Friend/s
The islands were beautiful and the combination of sail and cycling was the best way of seeing them. We saw so many incredible and interesting things. The cycling was more challenging than I expected but the group and the guides kept us all going and the achievement of completing the rides on a pedal bike with the amazing views of the islands was special. We were lucky to be part of a small group of 8 passenger from UK and USA. Everyone got on so well and made a great group that added to the experience. Ivica was a great lead guide with so much experience and local knowledge, he was friendly and looked after the group. Calum kept the fun coming with good stories, playlists, and the best recommendations on where to eat and drink. The Dionis was a lovely boat with a very happy and friendly crew, we felt very comfortable and looked after. The meals on the boat were amazing and kept us fuelled up for the cycling. Our first cycling holiday but won’t be our last.
- Nick, 02/06/2025 12:43, Travelled with Family
The crew were fantastic with the energy and friendliness they gave. They were also very helpful with assisting us with anything we needed and made sure we had the best experience one could have! Would highly recommend the trip to anyone who wants to see many parts of Croatia in a short period of time, enjoying both the culture and nightlife!
- Craig, 02/06/2025 12:32, Travelled Solo
Had such an amazing time on Sail Croatia. Our rep - Marin did a fantastic job. He kept us all on task with frequent updates on the plan for the day, this evening and then plan for tomorrow. He has a wonderful personality that makes him approachable, and was extremely responsible and reliable when any issues arrose! I cannot imagine having a better rep than Marin. He really made the experience what it was. His in depth knowledge of the area as a local Croatian was essential. The excursions were great, the atmosphere on the boat was great, and most importantly Croatia was absolutely gorgeous! Loved essentially waking up to a new Mediterranean island location every day. Would without hesitation recommend this cruise and especially Marin as a rep to anyone and everyone!
- John McGowan, 02/06/2025 12:32, Travelled Solo
Marin our guide exceeded our expectations for Croatia by far. His knowledge, getting to know him on a personal level about him growing up in split! We couldn’t have asked for a better week because of him. Sail Croatia are so lucky to have someone so passionate about their job ❤️❤️

Absolutely awesome trip! Special thanks to Marin and the Crew. Marin made sure everything was taken care of and became a good friend by the end of it, through sharing stories of his own adventures and really making us feel art of the Croatian culture, DOBRA! The crew was fantastic and made sure we were all taken care of. Croatia is stunning, and the vibe on board was incredible. Met amazing people, explored beautiful islands, and had the best time. 100% recommend! Thank you Marin and the Crew!

The people! Crew members, tour guides, fellow cyclists and the friends we came with all added to the entire experience. Marin was a wealth of knowledge. I especially enjoyed the history he shared with us. He is literally a "walking encyclopedia "!The cycling tours were breath taking, exciting and at times very relaxing. Johnny was awesome as a second tour guide. It was reassuring to have him following the group. He also provided so much pertinent information and awesome recommendations. They were both very gracious and giving. Bruno was exceptional, as well. In his quiet and unassuming manner he served food and drinks so respectfully and efficiently. The entire crew was terrific. This has been a truly wonderful time. Thank you to all!

A small group of friends did a 1 week sail/bike tour of the northern Adriatic coast of Croatia. Beautiful country, crystal clear water and very friendly people. The accommodations for the 20 guests aboard the Mali Ante were comfortable and clean and the crew of the ship were first class. The two guides provided by Sail Croatia (Lola and Tonka) guided us through fantastic routes through small towns and villages that you would never see on a larger ship. The rides were fun and not terribly challenging, although I do recommend taking an E-bike if you are more into the scenery than the cycling! Truly a 5 star experience!

We loved our adventure aboard the Salve di Mare and the time spent with new friends. The other passengers were easy to connect with and lots of fun. The crew worked seamlessly to keep the ship sparkling, anticipated our needs, and made everything look effortless and natural. Together they created a fun and relaxed environment. Tour manager Ioana was enthusiastic and upbeat. She ensured we understood the logistics for upcoming activities and provided alternatives for those who needed to skip a hike. Hike leader Mate shared his knowledge about Croatian culture and Island history. As an experienced local hiking guide with a background in Search and Rescue, we knew we were in good hands as he led us to beautiful vistas and interesting historic locations. Sail Croatia was informed of my food allergies in advance. The chef provided creative alternatives and the waitstaff made sure I received the right items. The entire cruise was top notch due to the exceptional staff!
- Aaron & Alice, 02/06/2025 02:25, Travelled with Family
I can't say enough about what a great trip this was! We were lucky to have just 8 people on the ship since it was early in the season. We all bonded immediately and had lots of fun and laughs (and are all still in touch). The highlight of our trip was our amazing hike guide, Andro, who led us on spectacular hikes and offered interesting information about the history and natural wonders of Croatia and each area where we hiked. I also have to give a shout out to Andrej, our delightful bartender/waiter, as well as the chef, captain, and two sailors. The hikes were challenging at times but definitely doable, and the reward was the incredible scenery of Croatia at every turn. I also really enjoyed out village lunch on Korcula. All in all, a really wonderful time in a truly beautiful country.

The most amazing week on-board Tuna. Ceili was an awesome tour guide - engaging with the group and showing us the best of Croatia; as well as giving us the necessary history and keeping us on-time. The captain took us to the most beautiful swim stops and Leo was fabulous behind the bar mixing up cocktails!! Toper was always quick to assist when needed and Maren made up tasty meals. We had a great group too and nobody was left out. A week that I won't forget anytime soon and will hopefully be back in the next few years!! Thank you Ceili and crew for making the week extra speical :)

I was on Mlini with Nour as my tour guide - I could not have asked for better. Bad weather meant our plans changed but Nour was great at communicating this to us and providing us with alternative plans. Additionally, at every single place we went to, Nour had information, activities and restaurant recommendations for us, I was never left wondering what to do. A huge thank you to Nour and the Mlini crew for a fantastic week!
