Spectacular Vacation

We were a group of ten women, and we thoroughly enjoyed our cycling trip aboard the Mali Ante. We read reviews before booking, and based on previous reviews, we had pretty high expectations, and yet they still managed to exceed them. The boat itself was very comfortable, and cabins and bathrooms were spacious for a small boat, but its the staff that were the true stars. The captain, Chef Kola and his team, the two Ivans and Mario all made sure our trip was safe, enjoyable, and our tummies were well looked after. The cycling team Tonka and Elena worked so well together. They made the cycling really enjoyable, making sure we could still cycle on the two bad weather days by changing up the itinerary. We had tons of laughs with all of the staff and fellow passengers, as the crew had a knack of bringing us all together. This week was a highlight in our larger itinerary.

Fab holiday

Loved the smooth organisation on and around the boat. Tonka and Elena were excellent guides and their story time was always interesting. The Mali Ante boat was very comfortable - and the crew outstanding. A very fun holiday - the cycling was easy and very pretty.

Best holiday

Had a fantastic holiday seeing the ancient & beautiful island towns of Croatia by boat and bike which were new experiences for us. Our wonderful guides Sanya and Ivan kept us safe during rides while sharing the history and culture of their beautiful country. We also couldn’t believe the quality of the food coming out of the boat kitchen from the Captain’s mum. We also met & had fun with other really lovely people on the cruise. Highly recommended !

Fantastic way to see the islands

This was such a well-organised trip with great guides, able to quickly rework the itinerary when weather changed. I loved it.

Best vacation ever

Everything was handled very professionally and personably. The guides Ana and Callum were knowledgeable, friendly and a huge factor for the success of the trip. Also the staff of the Mali Luka was excellent. The food prepared by chef was excellent and all the support staff were friendly and wonderful. The only negative was that the cabins would get a little musty and air conditioners tended to leak a bit. However these were just small inconveniences in an otherwise fabulous trip. Even weather was dealt with professionally and with fun

Our Epic Trip

We enjoyed our epic trip with a group of friends on Mali Ante of Sail Croatia . The whole crew was fantastic and they treated us like Kings and Queens, they exceeded every one of our expectations - attentive services, delicious food, clean cabins and lots of activities. Our guides Andre and Borna were top-notch, they are energetic, knowledgable and with a good sense of humour. The swim stops and bike rides were our highlights of this trip, we lucked out with perfect weather with sun, sun, sun everyday. This trip give us a glimpse of how beautiful Croatia is and we highly recommend this trip to anyone who is looking for an active vacation in Croatia - including the coastal islands.

October 2026 Cycling Cruise

We had a great time on this trip! The boat and staff were all excellent and made our vacation very special. The food was very good, the rooms were basic but clean and comfortable, and the itinerary was very nice. Suggestion for improvement: 1. Breakfast serving line was always slow due to food location and congestion by guests. Consider reorganizing food serving layout so the guests are able to fill their plates more quickly without being crowded in to a corner of the salon by the other guests. 2. Buy a commercial grade coffee/espresso machine that makes coffee quickly and frees up serving staff. Many are self serve and have a number of options. I've attached a photo of the machine in our hotel in Split which might be worth considering. 3. Towels are just OK. Kind of overused and scratchy. This would be an easy and relatively inexpensive improvement. 4. Take credit cards for bar/boat bill and gratuity. Most guests had to leave the boat to get extra cash. This is not convenient. Thanks!

Fabulous fun

We spent a beautiful week sailing from Split to Dubrovnik and cycling part of every day on e-bikes across spectacular islands. It's a lovely part of the world and this is an ideal way to explore it. The guides and crew were all super helpful and friendly. Our above decks cabin was comfortable and clean. Everything was taken care of, we loved the company of other people on the trip, the shared meals, the cycle rides along quiet roads and tracks, the spectacular views wherever we went and the swim stops. Highly recommend this to those who like to be a bit active on holiday but like to relax too.

Sail Croatia Emanual

We had a fantastic time during our 7 day cycling trip with Sail Croatia. Our guides Ivan and Sanya were fantastic. They were organized, informative and fun. The daily bike trips we took were fun, challenging and breathtaking. We liked sailing on a smaller boat. The Emanual had a lot of character. The crew was great and very helpful. The food was good, too.

- Diane, 13/10/2026 11:54, Travelled with Friend/s

Our Cycling guides were fantastic

Our guides were phenomenal and the south islands we visited were stunning. Nearly everyone had ebikes and were happy with that choice as there were lots of steep sections. Whilst some rooms on the Emmanuel yacht are tiny and they could do a few tiny things to improve the dining experience, over all it was AWESOME and would recommend! If you can afford it, I’d pay the extra to go on the more luxurious yacht (but that’s just me).

Great time! Great way to see Croatia!

Our experience with Sail Croatia on board the Princeza Diana was wonderful! Ivica and Antonio were great cycling guides. They kept us all safe, and adjusted our rides when rain was expected. Each ride was carefully explained and all levels of rider was encouraged, and cared for. Antonio gave us great and spot on recommendations for things to do and places to eat when on shore. The food on board was fresh, plentiful, Croatian and delicious. The service staff were kind, efficient and friendly. One BIG disappointment was that we asked for a double bed when we made our reservations. At NO point were we informed that this would not be a possibility until the week of departure. We contacted Sail Croatia when we found out we had been assigned 2 twin beds and they told us there were only 3 double beds on board (a single guy ended up getting one of them!) and they could not accommodate us. We feel that advertising was very misleading! The twin beds could not be pushed together. Be aware!

Terrific Experience - Thank you

We had a wonderful experience biking and sailing on the Adriatic. The guides and the ship's crew did everything possible to make the experience outstanding. Many thanks to Sasa and Andro, biking around the Adriatic Islands and the history lessons added so much to the experience. Our food server and cook were outstanding. Food was plentiful and very good. Ship's crew met all our needs in a timely manner and the Captain gave us interesting tour of the mechanical spaces of the boat. I hope I can return someday to complete another cruise.

Excellent bike and boat trip

My husband and I had never done a guided bike and boat trip before, and the guides were so helpful, knowledgeable and concerned for our safety, we felt very well taken care of. The scenery was spectacular, the bikes were well fit and maintained and the routes chosen were exceptional. The addition of the history knowledge provided by Marin was a wonderful asset, and Martin was so helpful and accommodating as well.

- Shelly, 11/10/2026 16:38, Travelled in a Couple

Croatia is Beautiful

Our Split to Dubrovnik cycle tour on Columbo ticked all the boxes! Marin & Martin were excellent guides who went above and beyond to help make our trip very enjoyable. Highly recommend using e-bikes as the tour will flow better for the group.

Mali Luka ‘More Better’

The cycling boat trip was the perfect mix or relaxation and sight seeing with a nice blend of activity. Sasa and Andro were fantastic tour managers and the rest of the boat crew made our lives easy working seamlessly under Ivan our captain who could park the boat on a dime. We had great group who just got on well together all of which was helped by the hard work and playful nature of the Sail Croatia crew

- Andrew, 10/10/2026 17:44, Travelled in a Couple

Excellent week of sailing and cycling

We had a fabulous experience with Sail Croatia’s cycling week from Dubrovnik to Split. The islands we visited offered nicely varied experiences and the cycling routes were challenging but rewarding. Cycle guide, Andro, explained the details of each day’s itinerary before we set off, making sure that we were challenged and supported at all times. Everyone was catered for. Swim stops, coffee stops and sneaky gelatos complemented our riding nicely. Cruise coordinator, Sasa, was an excellent organiser and cycling support. His knowledge of history and local customs completed a wonderful holiday. . Sasa and Andro are a thoughtful, professional and entertaining double act. We were in good hands. The Mila Luka crew, chef, photographer and captain were friendly and helpful throughout the week. We would recommend the experience to anyone who has a sense of adventure and wants to visit this beautiful country. The meals were also excellent. Thank you Sail Croatia.

Excellent adventure on the Mali Luka, Sail-Croatia, cycle and sail tour.

Excellent holiday!! Perfect weather. The e-bikes are well maintained, very user friendly. Our berth and boat did not disappoint. Our guides (Sasa & Andro) were very knowledgeable, fun and ensured our safety at all times. Highly recommend them. Our Captain, Cook and all our sailing crew were very accommodating, respectful and all around amazing! Breakfasts and lunches were ample and delicious!!! We appreciated the strong morning coffee:) Highlights also included, swimming off the boat, cycling/touring the beautiful Croatian islands and of course the wonderful new friends from 'around the world' we shared our week with!!

Our cycling trip from Dubrovnik to Split with rides through the beautiful countryside on Croatian islands was awe inspiring. Our guides, Sasa and Andro were professional, knowledgeable, and kind. The whole crew on the Mali Luka was hardworking and helpful. We went with friends and made new ones and the experience was educational, uplifting and fun. Croatia is beautiful and a wonderful place to travel and we’re glad we did it with Sail Croatia.

Trip of a lifetime

A trip of a lifetime with good friends! We enjoyed making new friends, exploring the islands on bicycle and learning about Croatian history and culture. The Mali Luka team made sure we were comfortable and well fed, and our guides, Sasa and Andro, were supportive, knowledgeable, and made even the hardest rides fun. The tour was the perfect combination of guided activities and free time to explore the islands on our own.

Amazing Sail and Cycle with Sail Croatia

We spent a week sailing on the Mali Ante starting and finishing in Split. The ship was wonderful and in person larger than expected so even though all of the cabins were full you never felt crowded. The crew were very professional and fun, and went out of their way to make everyone feel welcome. The cycling on the islands is amazing, but. Be sure to look at the routes as this is not a trip for those looking for long hard rides, but rather beautiful leisurely rides with amazing stops along the way. An absolutely perfect vacation. Thank you, Sail-Croatia

Great times on Sail Croatia

What a well planned trip by the guides and crew. The crew was so friendly and kind and made everyone feel comfortable. They took great care of us and our meals were delicious. Our guides Mario and Natasha were so knowledgeable about the many islands we visited and made everyday an adventure. They were always upbeat and had such a good sense of humor that kept us smiling everyday. What an exceptional experience. I felt lucky to be taking this trip with such a great group of people from so many other countries.. I would recommend this trip to anyone who wants to really get to experience the islands of Croatia both by boat and by bike. The trip had a great balance of biking, swimming, exploring local towns and enjoying great restaurants. What a wonderful visit to such a beautiful place in the world.

Sun, fun, and kindness - good for the soul

Wonderful - the crew and captain on the ship were fantastic, so very welcoming and helpful, and the biking guides were also kind, helpful, encouraging, flexible (adapting to weather, etc) and positive. Excellent food and Cooks. The weather in September could not have been more perfect for us - such fun anchor swimming in clear refreshing waters, beautiful biking trails/roads, so many little old gorgeous towns and islands, majestic views at the top of hills I am proud to have made it up on an "analog" bike, and coastline. Highly recommend. Shout out to Chappa, Kole, and Augustine. What a great country, with welcoming people, a majority who speak excellent English to accommodate us tourists :)

An Unforgettable Way to Experience Croatia – From Sea to Land

Our Sail Croatia cycle and sail tour was fantastic from start to finish. A huge thank you to our wonderful guides Mario and Taši, whose knowledge and passion brought the culture, history and architecture of Croatia to life on every cycling tour. The boat crew were amazing, our cabin was comfortable with a double bed, and the breakfasts and lunches onboard were delicious. The islands we visited were simply breathtaking — some so beautiful that words can’t describe them. Add the Adriatic Sea, cycling, local culture, food and wine, and you have the perfect Croatian adventure. We shared the trip with 31 wonderful guests from around the world and made some great new friends along the way. If you want to experience Croatia from both sea and land, this is definitely the tour to choose. Highly recommended!

Trip of a lifetime!

Biking through the rolling countryside roads filled with olive trees and grape vines is truly intoxicating. It’ll leave you breathless, thank goodness for the e-bikes! We were blessed with the best two guides a girl could ask for! Marin and Martin were exceptional leaders. They stayed with us on our bike rides and even accompanied us through tours of the cities. Marin is a remarkable historian! Every bike ride was filled with history of the land and people, plus fun facts. I don’t think there is a better way to explore a culture. I am already saving money to take another trip!

The plans for each day were clear with a good description of what to expect on the ride ( maps, swim stops, road hazards, coffee/lunch stops) and also many suggestions of sites to see during free time. Great staff on the barge as well.. Plenty of food! Accomodations were as expected.

Spectacular cycling in Croatia

We had a fantastic holiday on a Sail Croatia cycling cruise. It really is the best way to see the islands. The guides are professional and informative. I would advise booking an above deck room. It is also worthwhile knowing that you won’t cycle through/visit Hvar Town due to the island not allowing bike tours in there so consider visiting here before or after your cruise. We loved the whole trip and met some great people.

My husband and I were nervous about trying our first e-bike tour, but this trip completely blew us away! The boat was immaculate, our cabin was comfortable and quiet, and the three-course lunches were spectacular. The crew and guides were incredible—knowledgeable, safe, and exceptionally friendly. The e-bikes made riding up the island hills a breeze. Beyond the beautiful views, the best part was the lifelong friendships we made with the other 33 passengers. If it sounds too good to be true, believe me, it wasn’t. It was perfect.

Absolutely amazing

We had such a wonderful time on the Princeza Diana for our one week biking tour. The boat interior was recently refurbished so it was very nice and well appointed throughout. The staff was great with specific shoutouts to our tour managers Ivica and Antonio (they could also have successful careers herding cats), the servers Sanja and Danny (so friendly, kind, and helpful), and chef Marko (the food was sensational). They each really made our trip memorable by going above and beyond in their respective areas. The fellow guests from varied areas were all terrific and everyone got along incredibly well. While a custom cruise for us would have had longer rides and shorter stops, we also heard people say they wanted longer stops or shorter rides so this was a perfect balance for all. Overall it is highly recommended with zero complaints and it exceeded our expectations in every way..

Outstanding trip

We were fortunate to get on the Princeza Diana for our Sail/bike Croatia trip and she did not disappoint. The boat was spectacular, the rooms were spotless with comfy beds, the food was varied and presented beautifully ( bravo Marco ) and the bar had whatever you desired. Our guides Ivica and Antonio were the best. They were able to keep all 31 of us informed of the routes each day and any areas that may be tricky. No issues with our bike and lots of power to get up the steep climbs. It was so much fun getting to know our guides and Danny and Sanja were just so sweet. This group of people are what made the trip so special from sitting with new people at meals everyday to large happy hours nightly. 20 out of 10.

I would easily rate this as a 10 out of 10 holiday! Princenza Diana ship was very clean and had a real boating vibe. But it was the staff that really made our experience exceptional. All the staff knew us by name and provided personal and professional support to our specific needs. Safety was a priority on the cycling experience and we were always properly prepared for the day’s ride. The cycling routes took us through small villages, olive groves and vineyards, on paved paths with little to no traffic. I am ready to book my next adventure with Sail Croatia 👍

Everyone including sales team, the captain, the chef, servers, cabin crew and sailors were helpful, friendly and fun. But Antonio and Ivici who were our cruise director/ bike guides were awesome. They helped us really enjoy 7 fabulous rides. There were 13 in our group from Canada out of 31 on the boat and at one point we considered chartering the whole boat but we are so glad that we didn’t because we got to meet so many lovely people from the UK, , Australia , Ireland, Scotland and the US. This was a week we will truly remember and it didn’t hurt that we had 7 days of sunshine 😎

Amazing Experience, unforgettable!

We were a group of 15 and we had a blast. I was nervous to be in a small boat, I get sea sick easy, and that was not the case. The whole crew was amazing! Our ride leaders and coordinators did a fantastic job. Andro organizing the rides, routes and logistics was phenomenal. Saša, was a huge help sweeping us that were falling behind, he made my rides super enjoyable, even singing to me when I was ready to quit when the ride got harder (I was on a regular bike, not an e-bike). He had a great knowledge of Croatia’s history and he was magnificent in telling stories. Both did a terrific job. The rest of the crew shined as well, specially Matej our waiter/bartender, he kept me hydrated and did a phenomenal job attending to all during our meals. The food on board was amazing! Tomo, our chef did a fantastic job. Our Captain, Ivan was super funny and friendly, he gave me and my husband a tour of the bridge. The rest of our Crew, Ilya, Tonci & Roko, super friendly and helpful, always available

Best Vacation Ever

We enjoyed everything about this. Getting to see so many islands and villages on those islands was fantastic. At every port our "hotel" was steps from the village centre. The food was fantastic and everyone from the bike guides to the sailors and ship staff were friendly and very hard working. The bike portion was just right with a 2-3 hour easy ride every day then lots of time to explore each town. The transit from island to island was exciting. We saw dolphins and watching coming into each port was fun. The amount of area we were able to see with the bikes made our entire trip memorable. I would recommend this to anyone and everyone!

We had an amazing time on our Sail Croatia trip! The entire crew was consistently helpful, welcoming, and cheerful, always greeting us with a smile and making us feel well looked after.

CHALLENGE

Great crew - waiters Lucy and Geordie were great , always friendly, great attitudes . Chef made some really nice meals ; best gnocchi ever ! There were other crew that assisted us at various times , but did not get their names Guides Borna and Andre took good care of us and were very patient and professional . They regaled us with the history of where we were cycling . Sone of the most beautiful mountains I have ever cycled on - scenery was breathtaking! This trip really tested my stamina . The cabins need updating ; , new mattresses and pillows ;were just not comfortable. I would recommend this bike/boat trip to someone who wants a challenge

We had a great time.. the staff couldn’t have been more caring. The food was delicious. The tour guides were brilliant, adapting to problems with ease and maturity. They had a great sense of humor, without losing strength in situations that could have been stressful. A real pleasure to be on board for the week and learn so much about the Croatian Culture. I would have no hesitation in recommending the Sail Croatian Bike Tour. Cheers Kathy

Fabulous Guides on Sail Croatia Cycle Cruise

Natasa and Mario were excellent guide for our week long cycle and sail cruise. They were both very knowledgeable, providing interesting information and guidance for our travels. Both guides were well organized and skilled at presenting materials in an entertaining fashion. Peter, our server was also very friendly, personable and helpful. Natasa went out of her way to assist me which was greatly appreciated. All three staff members made our week most memorable and enjoyable. Thank you Natasa , Mario and Peter!

Mali Ante Sail Croatia e-bike tour

Our e-bike experience and cruise aboard the Mali Ante exceeded our expectations. First off, the crew was amazing and first rate in their attentiveness and accommodation. The food was outstanding and I tip my hat to chef Kole and Tonya…. The tour guides Tony and Augustin made every ride a joy and insured we stopped at the best view points, providing history of the area and of course cafe rest stops. Safety was their priority and they took great care of us all. I highly recommend this tour.

Phenomenal

Sailing and biking Croatia’s islands was incredibly special for its scenery, culture, food, aromas, waters and villages. But, it was Andro and Saša who made it phenomenal. The pair of them have a way of collaborating and connecting that was naturally easygoing, humorous and informative, all at once. Croatia and Andro and Saša made it a cultural and personal experience of a lifetime. Phenomenal.

Great week on the Dalmatian Coast

We had a wonderful week boating and biking; note the use of the word boating vs sailing. There were no sails and I was somewhat disappointed and I think the company should make this clear from the onset! That said, it was a great experience. Staff was exceptional, food was really good and we had an exceptional chef who clearly loves what he does. I would have loved to have biked longer routes or maybe a couple of rides offered per day to the overzealous types on board Great way to see the coast, visit some amazing historical sites, all without packing/unpacking frequently. Highly recommend this outfit for cruising, swimming and biking the Dalmatian coast. Weather was beautiful all week !!!

Sail & Bike Trip - just AWESOME

We just had a week on Sail Croatia’s ship Columbus & a biking tour through a small sample of the stunning Dalmatian coasts islands. Although a little apprehensive to start, Marin & Lauren, our fantastic guides, settled us all right in. They shared a load of local knowledge & ensured our bike route was challenging in sections but safe & hugely enjoyable – absolutely recommend an e-bike. The scenery is stunning & photos don’t do it justice. Our group started as 32 strangers but quickly turned to 32 friends, with sooo many laughs. Along with the guides, the crew & chefs were amazing turning our great meals & looking after us along the way. The trip absolutely exceeded our expectations & would thoroughly recommend.

We just returned from our trip of a lifetime and want to recommend Sail Croatia to anyone considering it. Equal parts adventure and fun made even more enjoyable by the group of friends we travelled with and the group of perfect strangers who felt like friends we've known forever by the end of the trip. Most importantly, we were led, educated and kept safe by Marin and Lauren. Here's to photo stops, conga lines, cheering for Carl, skinny cigarettes, new friends and "undulations"!

Great exercise, great experience.

I had a great time on my Sail Croatia bicycle cruise. The rides were all very doable on the e-bikes for all levels of riders. You can make it challenging and taxing or let the bike do most of the work and enjoy the scenery. Staff were very knowledgeable, helpful and friendly and brought everyone together. The food was good and plentiful, and the boat was comfortable and clean. The rides allow you to visit and experience parts of the islands that you would never see on a standard cruise. From historical sites to out of the way cafes every day brought something new. I’m going to recommend this trip to all my friends, most of whom are seniors, as a must do.

- Buddy, 30/09/2026 14:56, Travelled Solo

Great trip - get upper cabin

Everything about the cruise and bike riding was five star. Two guides Mario and Natasha were also five star. Food was great although could have had more fish. Captain and boat crew were also great. Getting to know my fellow Canadians, Americans, Aussies and Irish was an hoot. Every one got along great and best part ZERO politics! Only complaint was our lower deck berth as it was very small and stuffy. I ended up coming down with a bad cold and the lower quarters likely made it worse. Book early and pay the up charge for a upper deck berth.

Loved the whole adventure

We had the most amazing week aboard the Princesza Diana and were very impressed with both Josip and Simun who were engaging, entertaining and professional, making our comfort and safety a priority. The ship was lovely, our room more spacious than we expected. The e-bikes were comfortable, although not the Fire brand we expected but they did the job and fitted to our size . We would have preferred slightly more cycling and shorter coffee stops but that’s personal preference. The itinerary of the Split southern loop was very beautiful and all the stops were made better by great recommendations from Josip and Simun. We were also very impressed with the food and service on board. Our room was kept clean and fresh . Sanya in the lounge bar was a credit to the ship, very engaged and charming to all the guests. We would definitely recommend to friends and family.

Excellent Guides and Crew

Simun and Josip were absolutely wonderful. Thorough, thoughtful, kind, smart and very good at sharing the history of each location. They knew their audience and gifted us with a delightful cycling tour. Thank you, THANK YOU, THANK YOU both! The crew and boat were wonderful; kind, clean, and fun to be around. Three Suggestions: 1. Create smaller groups (34 riders was too many; felt unsafe at times); 2. Include software SC identified in its pre-departure info (or use an alternative) --- it was neither mentioned, nor used. It would be more fun to save our trips digitally; 3. Include options for additional rides for the days that make sense (listed in the pre-departure info but not used during the trip);

One of our top 5 holidays ever

Whether we just struck gold on this particular boat but this was the most perfect holiday. Our group were all of similar ages & abilities and we'd all opted for e-bikes so the pace didn't stretch anyone and Cal kept us all safe & thoroughly informed. His enthusiasm & friendliness was infectious, Cal you are a credit to the company! Sasha was the other half of the dynamic duo, telling us stories about his beautiful country which he is so knowledgeable and proud of. He was on hand at any time to keep us all happy and certainly performed his role to perfection. The rest of the crew carried out their duties without fuss or drama and the captain was exceptional, even retuning to port at one stage when the weather turned & only set off again when the conditions were safe, thank you. The chef was a magician, the food was better than most restaurant meals that we experienced. Plus we weren't expecting such lavish breakfasts, well done Hope to return in the near future, bravo all

This holiday was wonderful. The crew were fabulous and our tour guides were amazing. There was a fun and friendly vibe amongst everyone from the get go. Avica and Diego were so knowledgeable about each of the islands and so made the rides easy for everybody as well as suggesting and organising great outings and meal options for the evenings on the islands. The whole week was so well organised and nothing was too much trouble for either the crew or tour managers. This holiday was a great balance between activity, relaxation and sightseeing.

Biking with a lot of free time

Croatia was beautiful. Adriatic wonderful to swim in. The week’s scheduling was very regimented. The ports we visited had very strict docking times to enter. Caused us to have some awkward pauses or short swims. Wish our guides had taken time on land ion each to show us around a bit. They made lots of suggestions on what’s app .. but that seemed cold. We could have biked more. Last bike was cut very short because guides did not know roadways closed for clearing and cleaning. They should have found an alternative route. Food was fabulous on board. Crew was very professional and helpful. Ship was much more elegant and updated than I expected. Optional farm lunch tour was dissspointing. No interaction with the farm family .. no tour of farm. Just here’s your food. Heard wine tasting was also very disappointing. Don’t offer and push these options if they are not top notch.. . overall this was ok experience. In Croatia. You can do better.. it was Very touristy . . Make more personal..

Lauren and Marin were excellent, they kept us safe on the roads and gave us a good idea of what to expect each day and gave us Croatian history lessons - each island was unique and special. Lauren gave us a wide variety of things to do and places to eat on each one. Thanks to Yakov for his great service at the bar - cheers! Special thanks to Mike for his leadership 😀 The highlight of the week was all of our fellow bikers. We had an awesome group that was fun to get to know and enjoy some meals, drinks, swims, and rides.

Cycle/sail Split to Dubrovnik

We did seven nights with sail Croatia on a premium ship - which isn’t really premium. The crew and guides were amazing and the cycling really enjoyable. For the price the boat and the food were not of a standard you would rate anywhere near premium. It’s a great experience but if you’re a couple or a little older (over 50) this probably won’t be what you’re expecting.

Average Experience

The crew and guides for sale Croatia were fantastic. Cal and Sasha, our bike guides, were helpful and fun. The biking was the highlight of the trip. The bikes were high quality. the captain clearly had the safety of the passengers as his top priority. In contrast, simple conveniences were not available. The bathrooms did not contain soap in the shower. Clean towels were only provided once during the week. And storage space and electrical sockets were sparse in the cabin. Also bike bags for carrying personal items like rain jackets… we’re not provided. For the final 24 hours - hot water was not available on the boat. Many extra fees were required during the tour eg bikes through a national forest required additional euros. The food on the boat was average - most of the meats were overcoooked.

Dalmatia is beautiful on a bike!

First experience of cycling by cruise was a learning experience but mostly positive. Rides & bikes excellent, group & information managed really well by our guides. Unfortunately there was an issue with our boat and appreciate a last minute switch by Sail Croatia to keep holiday moving meant few issues. Ship was smaller so a cabin change, dining space cramped, guides were tired & stressed as unable to stay on boat with us. Food was ok but no lighter choices like salad before an afternoon of cycling.

The replacement vessel remained within the same Premier ship category booked, which offers a comfortable style of small-ship cruising rather than a luxury experience. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the dining space and meal options and will share this with the relevant team. Thank you again for travelling with us. We’re pleased that despite the unexpected change, you had an enjoyable experience overall and appreciate your 4-star review.

Ride Croatia

Was amazing. Food was plentiful and delicious. Croatia seen from a riding perspective is surreal. Weather was amazing well done and thank you

Incredible experience, problem with ship

Holiday was fantastic. The crew was absolutely 5 star and so amazing as well as our guides. Special shout out to Borna, Andrej, and Jelena! They are stellar. Biking through the islands was trip-of-a-lifetime incredible with amazing vistas and exposure to culture we could not have experienced otherwise. The only disappointment was we paid for a premium ship and due to some issue with our ship Sail Croatia had to contract a smaller ship with less comforts and it was too small for the number of passengers.

Good not great

Everything good except we paid for a premium upgraded ship and it was changed to a lower grade ship.

Wonderful experience

Everything about the trip was fabulous. The only complaint I have is the lack of hot water for a shower on 3 occasions. The first time I blamed it on everyone taking a shower at the same time, but the other two were late in the evening and first thing in the morning. Certainly nothing to ruin the trip, but something I felt you should be aware of. The guides and boat crew were amazing and friendly. I would highly recommend this trip!

- Maureen, 25/09/2026 05:17, Travelled with Friend/s

Amazing week

It was amazing from start to finish! The entire crew was incredible, all our wants and needs were exceeded,! Food was great and all the biking was even better than we thought it would be! The only thing that was an issue was no hot water on our last day before departure!

- Anonymous, 25/09/2026 04:53, Travelled with Family

Highly recommended

Our sail and cycle tour was excellent. The tour guides, Cal and Sasa, were well prepared, organized, engaging and a lot of fun. The rides were excellent and very scenic. It was nice when we stopped along the way and we heard a bit about the region which helped us better understand Croatian culture. The captain, Ivan, and his crew were great and very helpful as well. The food was good and there was lots of it. Our server, Matej, was very good and made sure we had lots to eat and drink during our trip. I will say that having no hot water for a shower on the last night and final day was not good, but that would be my only complaint in an other wise fabulous week. Highly recommended!

Amazing Croatian Islands and Coast!

A dsily cycling excursion is the best way to experience the beauty of Croatia. I would highly recommend this trip. The E-Bike makes all routes and overlooks accessible. The swim stops from the boat and the beach were also pristine.

Lower Cabin Beware

The staff, food, and itinerary were wonderful, and Croatia is a beautiful country. We were, however highly disappointed by the size and quality of the lower cabin. We are a couple in our 60’s and we were shocked to be assigned the smallest of rooms with a bunk bed. Nowhere online were photos of this room available or advertised. If we had known the room would be so small, musty smelling, and damp we never would have booked a lower cabin. In fact, we were the first of 22 friends to book and this was the room assigned to us!! We were also quite frustrated by not being told the name of our ship until two days before boarding. It felt like bait and switch being assigned the Mali Luka when it didn’t look anything like the ships advertised on the Sail Croatia website. We absolutely feel that the size and condition of the cabin did not warrant the price we paid, Customers should know exactly what they are paying for!

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re delighted to hear that you found the staff, food and itinerary wonderful and that you enjoyed beautiful Croatia. We are sorry that your cabin did not meet your expectations; however, we would like to clarify that your booking was for our Premier ship category, and Mali Luka is a Premier ship within this category. Our Premier ships offer a comfortable style of small-ship cruising rather than a luxury experience, and bookings are made by ship category rather than a specific vessel. This is why the individual ship is confirmed closer to departure. We also outline in our FAQs prior to booking that cabins across our Premier ship fleet vary in size and configuration and may feature twin beds, a double bed or a bunk-bed style arrangement. While we always endeavour to accommodate guest preferences, a particular cabin layout cannot be guaranteed within this category. For guests looking for a higher standard of accommodation and amenities, or who would prefer to select their specific ship and cabin type when booking, we also offer our Luxury Cycle product. We appreciate your feedback and are pleased that, despite your disappointment with the cabin, the staff, food and itinerary were highlights of your experience.

A trip and memories to remember

The trip was outstanding - from check in to completion the service of the crew and the planning and locations visited made it a trip to remember. The tour leaders Josip and Augustin ensured each day was well planned, they supported all the guests and were filled with great historical information on each location that added to the scenery and atmosphere. Our trip experienced a serious accident for one of the guests and the manner in which our guides handled the incident with professionalism and care was tremendous. They showed consideration and urgency to address the situation but also genuine care for everyone involved. On board the boat, all the crew were friendly and professional and the service of Peter behind the bar was great. We anticipated a fun and exciting trip with great locations and experiences - and were well pleased. We'd totally recommend this trip to anyone that wants a great balanced trip to the Croatian Islands

Best Trip

This was our best trip ever. Been to Spain, Italy and Portugal but this sail/cycle trip was more fun than we had expected. Fantastic crew and a great group of passengers made this our best trip ever. The cycling led by 2 fantastic guides provided superb views of the islands which you would not see if only on a cruise. Meals were delicious and on time. We loved the politeness and friendliness of the crew as well as the office staff who helped us with the booking. We would recommend this cruise and may even do it again next year ourselves. Special thanks to Marin, Lauren, Yako (spelling?) and Holly.

One of our best bacations

We thoroughly enjoyed the boat, crew, destinations and cycling. The tour leaders were very accommodating, and considerate. The lunches were a bit heavy for our liking, but the food was always good. The only real negative was the upper deck furniture was only available for half the guests and some were broken.

- Jana, 23/09/2026 09:12, Travelled with Friend/s

Great Trip

The crew and guides were excellent. Had a wonderful cycling week travelling from Split to Dubrovnik. The crew worked hard on the Colombo. The guides were extremely knowledgeable, especially Maron, and focused on our safety. Lots of food, the quality was ok. Trip was fantastic! However the Sail Croatia booking staff were not transparent and quite evasive. My friend and I repeatedly requested a room with twin beds 10 months prior and we were told they were not able to let us know until one week before we sail. We ended up getting a cabin with one double bed. We learned on our trip there were at least 4 cabins with twin and triple beds with only one occupant. No conversations were had with these travellers to see if they were willing to switch or offer compensation. Nothing was done to try and accommodate our request. Ask for a guarantee at the time of booking or you will not get it. We were even willing to upgrade or pay more. Unfortunately we never got an apology.

Thank you for your 5-star review and for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re delighted to hear that you had a fantastic cycling week from Split to Dubrovnik and particularly appreciate your wonderful comments about the crew and guides onboard Colombo, especially Maron. We are, however, disappointed to read your comments regarding our Sales team, as we were in regular communication with you throughout the enquiry and booking process. As outlined again in our recent correspondence with you, we advised from the beginning of your enquiry that we are unable to guarantee the bedding configurations on our Premier ships. Ships are allocated approximately 1–2 weeks before departure, at which point bedding requests are assigned based on booking order and guest preferences. As your booking was made later than others on this departure, unfortunately your preferred twin configuration was not available. For guests who require a specific bedding configuration to be confirmed at the time of booking, our Luxury Cycle product is sold by exact ship rather than a category of ships, allowing the available cabin and bedding type to be selected during the booking process. We’re sorry that the bedding configuration was a disappointment, but are very pleased to hear that you otherwise had a fantastic trip and such a positive experience with our crew and guides.

Mostly excellent

As a previous customer of Sail Croatia I knew I would enjoy myself and the company of an international gathering. It was enjoyable and the few changes were welcome. E Bikes were better but they should had wider tyres. Guides were very professional. Food was mostly very good. However, I thought that I would upgrade the boat that I had selected but I think this boat was the poorest I have been on in all four previous holidays. Rooms were small, decorations were beginning to feel very dated. Air conditioning in the bedrooms was good. Lounge areas were only adequate but outside spaces were only a little more generous, All Sail Croatia staff were good as were boat’s complement. Excellent Captain. The last day before arriving in Dubrovnik was a poor cycling day and I think that you need to find a more demanding and interesting ride. It really was disappointing In summery, better boat for Premium, more appropriate bikes, final day rethink. Thanks for running the trip.

Split to Split Cycle Cruise

A fabulous experience - amazing staff, beautiful ship, great food enhanced by the host Lucia and our cycle guide Dora. Both were brilliant and have great interactions with each other and all guests. Their knowledge of Croatia past and present was shared with passion and enthusiasm. Would I recommend anything is different—introduce a cocktail hour on the boat and you'll definitely increase the spend.

- Catherine Hinds, 21/09/2026 10:03, Travelled with Family

Fabulous holiday

We were on a cycle cruise from Split to Split. What a fantastic holiday. Lucila and Dora were amazing hosts/leaders. Very helpful, knowledgeable and funny. All the crew were great. The waiters were friendly and efficient. The food was great. Accommodation was better than expected and our room was checked daily with fresh bedding and towels mid week. The e-bikes were in great condition and any issues were sorted out immediately. All in all a very good holiday.

Wonderful holiday from start to finish. The entire crew was very attentive to every need. The Princeze Diana was like new, clean and spacious. The room and beds and linens were very comfortable. The cycling with e-bikes was the way to go, making the long uphills quite effortless. All the rides on the different islands were beautiful. Our guides Lucija and Dora were top notch with daily briefings, and stories of local history along the way. I would 100% recommend the Sail Croatia sail and cycle to anyone.

Split South return review, on the Mali Ante

Great experience. Our lead guide Joska was amazing. Would go again, maybe on the Split Dubrovnik trip - we did Split south return (our ship the Mali Ante was great - the crew were amazing - so friendly and helpful). Very smooth trip overall (cabins are very small but expected for this size ship). Most of us had e-bikes and we were glad for those as there are some steep, long hills - two of our crew had non e-bikes they brought with them, you want a high end bike for those hills, not just the standard rental non e-bike. Would have been good to know that we overnight in Split when we arrived back so we could have flown out the following morning, although we had a great day in Split and stayed at a fantastic hotel (the Hotel SantaLucia in the main square), and Split was worth the visit.

- Andrea, 19/09/2026 14:36, Travelled with Friend/s

7 day island biking.

Ship was great. Crew was great. Food was great. Cycling was good. Each day should be a minimum of 40 km. 5 and 10 km days were disappointing. Guide should be prepared to quickly repair a flat tire. One day we spent an hour idling while he dealt with that, since he didn’t have the right tools. He should have sent us down the hill to the beach. Overall the briefs need to clearly and briefly state the aims of the ride and how much time in each stop. Electric and regular bikes do not mix. Too much waiting around for the regular riders. A group of 30 or more cyclists is too big to manage. Group size should be 15 max. Overall a great trip.

Sail Croatia with Biking

Overall we had a good holiday. We were on the Emanuel. The boat was clean.. Biking with guides was very good. We were disappointed in some aspects. The rooms were very tight. We understand this is a boat but our bed was against a wall and the storage was minimal. The bed was very hard and linens/towels were just ok. The room would have felt better if they had used better quality items. It felt more like dorm living or summer camp. No swimming towels provided (which we knew ahead) but this takes a lot of room in a suitcase when traveling. The meals were basic and not of a standard that we expected for a vacation. Bar prices seemed a little high. It was stated not to bring food/drink onboard.. However, there was no food or snacks available other than meals. One day we were sailing 7 hours to avoid a storm and no food provided other than lunch. This meant drinking and no snacking. The upper deck was nice with a shaded area and sun deck but the furniture needs updated.

Amazing vacation

Was one of the best vacations we have had and e-biking thru Croatia was the way to go. Every day we saw the most beautiful scenery and towns. The swim stops were my favorite-crystal clear water-so relaxing. We traveled with other guests from Canada, Australia, England, USA who made our trip so much fun and who couldn't have been nicer. The Crew on Emanuel was wonderful, especially our e-bike tour guides Ivica and Sanja. They made our days fun and informative and always made sure we were all OK. If you're thinking about doing this trip-stop thinking and just book it...

- Kelly, 17/09/2026 23:01, Travelled with Friend/s

Wonderful

It was absolutely delightful. A shoutout to Agustin where this was his first cycle cruise that he led and he did awesome. I think you guys are underselling what you offer - we went to Marco Polo center and Mamma Mia island, and these were barely even mentioned in the write up. Truly remarkable. The only suggestion is with varied abilities on riding bikes it could be good to have a longer intro session on bike safety. Even the basic things that some people may not be aware of. But overall, absolutely a stunning holiday !

- Juan, 17/09/2026 19:58, Travelled in a Couple

Great time overall

Overall our holiday was excellent. Great locations and a great crew who went above and beyond to make its success. Only three things I would highlight as opportinited for improvement: 1. Tipping: If the company and the crew have to propose a level for tipping this suggests that the crew wages are insufficient and you are relying ib tips to make them up. I would prefer you set the right wages, adjust the price for guests and leave tipping at the guests' discretion and at a much lower level. 2. The crew asked us to fill out the feedback form in their presence when we settled the bar tab. This wont give you candid feedback. Better to do it afterwards remotely like this. 3. The food was good but not as good as I would expect and most importantly the coffee was way too strong and unfiltered. Get a coffee machine.

Wonderful experience with both people and places

We had a fantastic time on the Columbo with Captain Antonio and his crew. Tonca and Lauren kept us well informed and accommodated the broad range of personalities and people. Breakfast and lunch plentiful and enjoyable. Islands were magical and riding was very comfortable. I am a cyclist for 50 years back in Australia, but I was very happy to have taken an E-bike for some of the hills to be able to enjoy the ride and views. There is also a wide range of dinner options in every place we stayed. Highly recommended.

Mixed review:

5 stars for the flexibility of the tour (great balance of bike, swimming, city walks and sailing time). Low-quality ship with humongous humidity in cabins. For was just ordinary, with little flavour and no variety. Wine policy (buying entire bottles instead of wine by the glass) is ridiculous. Alcool prices are exorbitant on the ship. Example: house is sells 45 euros for 750ml. Tommy sells same brand for 7,95 euro… Despite poor quality of the ship and meal offering, I had a great vacation!

Croatia is a beautiful country, gorgeous clear sea, friendly people. Cycling was great, sometimes a bit longer than expected, the cash bar and cash tips were unexpected, and many small places also only used cash so come prepared! 3 course lunch onboard was nice but we weren’t hungry enough for trying full dinners- loved the air con in the room, but could do with more storage in the bedroom.

The entire crew was so awesome! Borna & Ana were excellent tour guides, for our cycling & area adventures. The chef on our boat prepared absolutely delicious meals.

Fantastic holiday. We sailed on the Mali Ante from Split . Check in was straight forward .Our cabin was nice and clean . Nice welcome from the captain who introduced the crew and bike guides for the week. Great itinerary with variety and well organised. We were fully briefed on what to expect each day .I had chosen to do the trip with a standard hybrid bike . So some of the hill climbs were very challenging but the satisfaction of completing the rides was amazing. Food on board the Mali Ante was so good the chef produced great food every day. Mario our waiter looked after everyone so well he never stopped so attentive and cheerful. The scenery throughout the trip was breathtaking. The captain was always cheerful and would chat with you he took us to some amazing swim stops with crystal seas and landscapes that were awesome . Josko and Martin our cycle guides kept us safe and were very knowledgeable. They were so helpful on places of interest to visit . I would definitely recommend it

Pure pleasure cruise and fun cycling !

I throughly enjoyed my cruise from Split return of the northern islands of Croatia. Last year I travelled the Southern islands from Dubrovnik to Split . It was so enjoyable I booked this years trip as soon as I came home I am also going to book again for 2027 The cycle tour guide was extremely good , knew routes exceptionally well and explained the route every morning in great detail . We also had a lady who cycled with us who had detailed local and historical knowledge of each location , village and town we visited The boat I was on was attractive , nice size cabin - great shower . A wardrobe and bedside cabinets . The crew were really helpful , we had lovely breakfasts and lunches every day . The captains evening dinner was great too . The boat had a bar and you could have drinks when you want If you want a relaxing cruise , with fun cycling , history and beautiful locations in Croatia - all thrown in together then I strongly recommend one of the trips Sail Croatia run .

The guides, Borna and Eva were great guides. They would give us a morning review of each daily ride and Borna also would give a brief of history of every island. The vessel was wonderful. The food prepared on board were awesome and the whole bike ride was great.

Super Tour!!

Fantastic trip. Lots of fun cycling, swimming, boating, sight-seeing. Great food and special attention to sensitive diet (the chef was great!) Fun way to travel and meet fellow adventurers from around the world. Great opportunity to visit special out of the way places to capture that locals feeling! Also had the opportunity to visit some of the national parks and ancient cities. Crew and guides were awesome, helpful, fun, knowledgeable.

Amazing 🤩

We had a lovely time sailing the Islands of Croatia. Our biking guide Andre was Croatian and he had a wealth of knowledge about each destination and did a great job keeping us safe and giving us freedom to enjoy the area. Our sail Croatia coordinator Callum was amazing as well. He was very professional and fun and also very knowledgeable about Croatia. The ship staff were fabulous. They were very friendly, professional and helpful. Breakfast was a good variety and lunches were always 3 courses and lots of food. Snack were offered in the dining room every day also. Dinners were off the ship at a local restaurant except 2 dinners on the ship. The captain’s dinner and a Bar-b-que. . Both delightful. The only complaint is that the morning coffee was terrible (If you wanted a good coffee you had to buy it), the only portable water was locked up every day at 10pm in the dining room until 7am, and the bedding and towels were only changed once. We showered a lot because of sweating and biking

Sail Croatia Dubrovnik to Split

We had a great time on our cycle tour! Would for sure do it again!

- Annette, 14/09/2026 06:57, Travelled with Family

It was a great trip. The crew was nice, very helpful. The food was good, and the bike rides were beautiful and not too long. I really liked that we were able to going swimming at several opportunities - a least once per day.

It was as good as hoped for.

Sail and Cycle Dubrovnik to Split

Excellent holiday. Just the right amount of cycling, swimming and exploring. Meals were excellent. Crew was very efficient and helpful. Sonya and Danny kept us well hydrated. Anna and Borna were excellent guides. Would recommend

Amazing Adventure!

Everything about our Sail Croatia cycle trip was perfect! Ana and Borna were professional, friendly, informative, organized and responsive leaders. The crew did a great job keeping the boat sparkling clean and operating smoothly. The chefs and servers kept us fed and full of delicious local cuisine. The cycling on each island was well planned, taking us through historic countryside and villages, and up to breath-taking sites. Opportunities to swim in the amazing Adriatic water were plentiful and very refreshing! Highly recommended!

Great Holiday!

We enjoyed the cruise/cycle package very much. From the start to finish, everything was well organized and we were looked after well especially by our guides Tonka and Ema on board and whilst riding. They were exceptional in looking after all 32 passengers on board. The ships crew were very hard working and always polite and helpful. The food got better as we went along. Would have been good to have some non-alcoholic drinks variety on board and with the very hot weather, access to ice would have been very much appreciated. The cycle rides were great in spite of the high temperatures and the bikes were great too. A great tour!

Best E-Bike vacay ever!

I went on the e-bike/boat 7 day cruise and it far exceeded my expectations! The boat (Princeza Diana) was a beautifully refurbished (in 2026) boat with a lovely covered back deck (with a lot of comfortable seating) for lounging and enjoying the beautiful scenery. The cabins were surprisingly spacious and very tastefully decorated. The open air top deck was my favorite,at nighttime, to enjoy the stunning small port harbour water views. This is a very intimate experience, 30 passengers, and so much fun! What made this whole experience EXTRA special were the Sail Croatia crew. Every single one of them was remarkable! Our bike tour leaders, Anna and Natasha were so fun, knowledgeable and always available to answer any questions! From the wait staff, to the chef, and captain/first mates all so friendly and welcoming. Two staff members who really stood out were Sanja (waiter/bartender) and Damir (first mate), they went above and beyond to make you happy! BEST TRIP EVER!

Great trip - awesome crew

It was a fantastic trip, beautiful rides, amazing crew and your guides. I would highly recommend this trip. It was very well planned out and everyone on the trip were so helpful and friendly.

Excellent trip

The trip overall was very, very good. - Enjoyed the bike rides - Enjoyed the crew - Enjoyed the guides Everyone seemed to go out of their way to take care of us. It was brutally hot outside and the cabins were pretty warm as the AC could not keep up, but at least they provided a fan to help keep you comfortable. I would fully recommend the experience to others interested in doing the same type of adventure.

Split southern Route

Excellent from start to finish. Amazing crew and bike guides Definitely would recommend this holiday to anyone who would like a cycling and active holiday

Split southern route cycle 2/8-9/9

The whole experience was excellent from the crew, bike guides, cycling and breathtaking scenery. We joined the Mali Ante boat in split on 2:9- check in was easy and good information relayed. Cabin was fine and as expected. We had a good intro from the captain and met all the crew and bike guides for the week. Each day was different and well organised. We loved the variety and the food was amazing. Great chef who produced fantastic meals every single day- loved it. We had different cycle days from very tough ( even on an ebike) to more gentle rides near the end but made the most of the islands we visited and scenery spectacular. We had good swim stops from the boat and a good mix of cycle and down time. Josko and Martin were very good guides and informative- they kept us safe and entertained. Mario our waiter and crew member was outstanding in how he looked after us all on board always with a smile . The captain always had a cheery smile and a chat. Thoroughly recommend this trip.

Few things to improve

It was a great time with a great group of people. The staff on board were great but the main comments from us and other travellers was that the boat was a bit run down, specifically the linen was ripped and marked and the showers were smelly. Hope this helps

Unforgettable Holiday

Our trip with Sail Croatia could not have been better. The beautiful sea and the history filled towns we visited each day were amazing. The combination of bike riding and swim stops and free time was all put together perfectly. The crew on the boat moved us from one island to another seamlessly, handled our bikes at every stop, fed us delicious food meal after meal and refreshed our rooms when needed. Our fabulous guides Emma and Tonka met us every morning with their smiling faces and gave us a complete itinerary of our day. They were always calm and organized and answered so many questions every day.. We loved “storytime” at our bike stops and looked forward each day to what they had in store for us. They organized group dinners and small tours for us that took extra effort and always kept us on task in a way that we appreciated and allowed us to make the most of each day . They both are fabulous at what they do and were definitely the icing on the cake! Big thanks to you both❤
