Hike trails need some work

Everyone on the Afrodita works so hard, the ship was very well maintained and the food was great. The hike guides very good and well informed. The trails were not maintained by any standards basically goat paths. I slipped and fell on first hike injured my leg, cuts and bruised on the loose sharp rock. The guides Martin and ILona were great. Martin applied bandages to my leg to stop the bleeding then helped me finish the last kilometer back to the boat. I had to skip the hike the next day and only did 5 of the 7 hikes opting to do the easiest. Looking back I wish I knew the trail conditions, the length and elevations were all that I remember and the hikes were moderate. Next time we will do the elegant cruse. I wish I could give 5 stars.

Memorable trip in a beautiful country

It was my first time visiting Croatia and first time on this type of cruise. Both were incredible - the small Explorer cruise was a great way to explore the islands of Croatia. The sea and landscape in Croatia are stunning. Our tour guide, Vicko, was knowledgeable and friendly. I appreciated how honest he was about which excursions would give us the best experience, he never pushed us to book something unless he really thought we would enjoy it. (And all of his recommendations were spot on.) We traveled as a family with a broad age range, and the Explorer cruise was fun for everyone. If you can, I'd recommend spending a few days before or after the cruise visiting the cities, since we spent almost all of the time on the islands.

Simply Brilliant

A bunch of like minded holiday makers and awesome crew made this great. Captain and crew were dedicated to us having a great time. The activity staff were brilliant, Andro was the star with his local knowledge and passion for making everyone feel happy and safe. Thank you

Unforgettable experience!

An absolutely unforgettable experience onboard Tuna! From the moment we arrived, everything was seamlessly organised, allowing us to simply show up, meet amazing people, and enjoy the vibrant atmosphere. Ceili truly made our trip exceptional. Her warm and inviting personality, along with her commitment to making sure we all enjoyed an amazing experience, truly had a significant impact. We’ll definitely be back soon!

Well-run FUN!

The crew was knowledgeable, responsible and fun. Ivan did a good job leading the bike tours, Ioana was really friendly and very funny - she made us all laugh with her sense of humor, and the captain, crew and bar team were friendly and capable.

A great trip with a large group of friends.

There were about twenty of us traveling as a group. We made nice friendships with the other guests on the ship. The rides and the option of e-bikes makes this adventure accessible and fun for everyone. Our guides were friendly and knowledgeable. They provided insight into history of the area offered great suggestions for dinner and activities when we were not cycling. The captain and crew were also very friendly and skilled.

Amazing week boat and bike

Comfortable cabin below deck! Quiet, comfortable bed and bigger than expected! Amazing friendly staff and captain. We had 20 guests which made it easy to get to know everyone. Andro was our bike leader and did a great job keeping us all together. Matilda was so good at helping with information on dining and site seeing on each island! The trip was well organized and so much fun. The only suggestion is everyone should rent bikes as we ended up waiting for hybrids too often! Bike riders can turn assist down or off if they want more workout...or have 2 group leaders. The food on board was plentiful and very good. I will recommend to anyone wanting to bike the beautiful islands!@

WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE AND GREAT MEMORIES

I had not done a trip like this before so wasn’t sure what to expect. It was such a wonderful way to see a country. I am glad I got an e-bike as there were many hills that I would not have been able to ride with a regular bike. The views were always stunning. The food was great. The captain and crew were experienced to know how to adapt the trip to keep is safe while getting the most out of our experience. The bed/room was comfy and clean and provided Air Conditioning for hot nights. WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE AND GREAT MEMORIES!

Wonderful sailing and bicycling adventure!

Our wonderful crew were friendly, helpful and went out of their way to take of us. We experienced unique Croatian sights and villages by bicycle. Enjoyed the swim stops!

- Andrea, 07/06/2025 13:53, Travelled with Friend/s

Fun, well organised cruise.

We loved moving to a new island each day. The hikes were enjoyable. The guides were knowledgable and fun. The food was great.

Best week ever

Sail Croatia was one of the best weeks I have ever lived - everything is basically done for you, just rock up, make friends and party! Our trip was made even better by our host Ceilie who was super friendly and ensured we all had an awesome time. Our group will be back again soon!

- Hayden, 06/06/2025 22:23, Travelled with Friend/s

Family trip

Marco was a fantastic captain and helped create a unique and wonderful experience for my family. This was my second sail with Sail Croatia and it for sure won’t be my last, they are a top notch sail company.

A great week on the Adriatic

Great service, food and yacht.

The team was great

Celili and the crew were so good and looked after me and my sister. I am going to Highly recommend these guys to to all my mates. Cheers

a large Slice of Heaven

We spent a week sailing from Split to Dubrovnick on Slice of Heaven with Tony and Matea. They were amazing in all ways. Tony skippered the boat with safety and professionalism centered, yet was extremely flexible in adjusting to our interests in bicycling on the islands and sailing when the wind was up. Mattea was an amazing host and chef extraordinaire. She set a very high standard for breakfast and lunch that will be impossible to duplicate. I would highly recommend Sail Croatia, especially if you can land these two!

- John, 06/06/2025 15:00, Travelled with Friend/s

One of my favourite holidays!

From the moment we arrived to the ship, we received a friendly and professional greeting. The crew and guides were fantastic - did their utmost to accommodate any requests. 'J' our lead guide was very knowledgeable and gave a great historical account on our routes. All the crew: J, Louvre, Lucy, Harris went above and beyond, the chefs (food was great!) captains (smooth sailing all the way!) - everyone was so nice. The route and scenery exceeded expectations and we enjoyed swim stops along the way. The rest of the group that we met were all so welcoming and everyone mixed well with lots of chats and laughter. I would highly recommend.

- Niamh, 06/06/2025 14:27, Travelled with Friend/s

Great blend of exercise, outdoors, views, history and relaxing in the water

Great guides took us on some great walks., followed by relaxation in the water and local village. The boat, food and staff were terrific. Thank you

Cycle Sail Croatia

The most amazing experience that surpassed all my expectations. The perfect mix of activity and relaxation. We cycled around stunning islands and moored at beautiful harbours. The food on board was excellent and the people I met were a joy. It felt like family by the end of the trip. Our cycled guide Josko was informed, professional, great fun and passionate about his country, giving us insights into the history of this incredible region along with great laughs, encouragement and always making us feel safe. The rest of the staff were superb also. Definitely a trip to be remembered for a long time to come, so sad that it’s over and planning the next one already 🙂

- Helen, 06/06/2025 08:03, Travelled with Friend/s

Highly recommended

We did so much research on the company, vessel and cruise as we had never done one of these before and honestly we had the trip of a lifetime. Salve di Mare was such a great boat and the explorer cruise had a really great mix of people and good split of relaxing/activities. Honestly what made our trip the most special were the other people we met on the cruise and the incredible staff (shout out to Vicko)

- Laura, 06/06/2025 05:50, Travelled in a Couple

More time sightseeing, less time swimming

More comfortable seating and a shaded area on the top deck More time in port - the water is cold in early May so swimming isn’t a good activity. If the ship can’t dock earlier, the option of getting a water taxi or tender to port should be an option. Excursions were over-priced

- Anonymous, 06/06/2025 03:42, Travelled with Family

Wow! What an amazing holiday

From the minute we stepped on the boat until the final beer back in Split marina this trip was just amazing. The boat was exactly as advertised and the Sail Croatia team made the whole process very easy. Special thanks to our skipper, Ivan, who really made the trip a great experience. He was more than happy to accommodate the extra stops we wanted to make and was incredibly patient with our lack of boating knowledge (I think I know how to tie a rope now!). Can't recommend these guys highly enough.

- Paul, 06/06/2025 02:18, Travelled with Friend/s

Caring guides, Marin is a great story teller and knows a lot about the history of Croatia.

It felt like I was with family whilst on the boat. I needed to go to hospital and was cared for brilliantly by Marin and Johnny. The cycling was fantastic getting to see so much of each Island.

Unforgettable Week in Croatia

We just returned from the most incredible week sailing the Croatian islands with Sail Croatia, and I can't recommend it enough! Every stop was breathtaking, and waking up on the water every morning felt like a dream! The yacht was spotless and comfortable, and you could tell everything was run with care and professionalism. What truly made this trip exceptional, though, was the crew. Our captain was skilled and steady at sea and the crew worked around the clock to make sure we were safe, well-fed, and always smiling. Their positive energy was contagious and made our entire experience. A massive thank you to our Sail Croatia rep, Vicko—he was the heartbeat of the trip. Always checking in, organizing fun outings, and bringing good vibes wherever he went. Vicko went above and beyond to make sure every single person had a great time, and we’re all better for having met him. Between the scenery, the people, and the vibe—this was the trip of a lifetime!

Take me back to Croatia!

We just wrapped up the most incredible week sailing with Sail Croatia, and we truly had the time of our lives. From the moment we stepped onboard, the crew and fellow guests made the experience feel so special. Each day brought a new island to explore, and every destination was more breathtaking than the last. A huge thank you to Vicko, our Sail Croatia representative, who went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. His friendliness and attention to detail truly enhanced the entire trip. We also want to give a big shoutout to the Chef Arijan—every meal was absolutely delicious! The food was a highlight in itself, and we were so well fed the entire week. It was a perfect mix of adventure, relaxation, and great company. Can’t recommend Sail Croatia enough—we’re already dreaming about the next trip!

Best Experience of My Life

The cruise was incredible. I felt at home the second I got on the boat. The staff was so friendly and everyone on our boat was as well. The boat was incredibly clean and luxurious. I loved how we had time in the morning to relax and then the afternoon to do excursions and explore. It was the perfect balance. Our guide Vicko was amazing! He had so much information to share and was always honest with his recommendations about what he thought were the best things to do at each stop. We all got along so well and I feel we made lifelong friends! I would 100% do another Sail Croatia tour again!

Great Family Vacation

We chose Sail Croatia Explorer Cruise on the Salve De Mare as our summer family vacation with our 20 and 24 year old children. It was the perfect mixture of relaxation, sight seeing, adventure, and exploring. Our travel rep, Vicko, was awesome. He was always leading the way with great advice and direction. The crew of the Salve de Mare went above and beyond to accommodate and ensure everyone had a good time. The food and drinks on board were diverse and delicious. This was an intimate cruise with only 33 passengers and 9 crew. We truly came as strangers and left as friends. I would highly recommend Sail Croatia and Salve de Mare. Thanks for an awesome vacation!

Mlini

I had the most amazing week on sail Croatia. The ability to have no worries about plans as our amazing rep Nora led the way! We had a perfect balance of preplanning and free time. Nora never let us down, her history knowledge and advice was greatly appreciated and she enabled me to get the most out of this experience! Thank you🩷

The best time ever

Noura was the most incredible rep we could have asked for! She was so attentive and always was there ready to answer our questions. She gave recommendations daily and made our trip feel extremely personal. We absolutely loved Noura and Sail Croatia wouldn’t have been nearly as smooth sailing without her by our side every step. We had the most incredible crew onboard the Milini, couldn’t fault any crew member, always had top tier service, the best experience ever

Explorer Cruise

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

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

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

- Lauren, 05/06/2025 15:47, Travelled with Friend/s

Great sail and hike holiday

We had a great time on and off the boat. We traveled as a couple with a set of friends. The hikes were good and guided very well by Illona and Martin. The only thing I would recommend to change is the fixed lunch as we could have enjoyed a few longer hikes without having to rush back for lunch on the boat. It was especially the case with the hike from Makarska after an hours bus drive to the national park. That day we also had the captains dinner on the boat so we could have had lunch on the mountain in the national park. All in all we had a wonderful holiday!

- Elke, 05/06/2025 15:35, Travelled in a Couple

You can choose your friends but not your Sail Croatia Family

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

Penolopa

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!

- Caroline, 05/06/2025 14:58, Travelled Solo

Perfect from Start to Finish

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.

My sail Croatia experience was 10/10! From the group of people, the crew and especially our rep Nour. Nour was sooo organised, fun and always had recommendations for each location. She really went above and beyond which made this experience so good.

- Jahna, 05/06/2025 14:17,

Best week ever!

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

An Unforgettable Week on the Penelopa!

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!

- Kyara , 05/06/2025 14:06, Travelled Solo

Great trip

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.

- Cara, 05/06/2025 13:12, Travelled Solo

Explorer Cruise

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

Great trip

Staff were excellent. Very attentive in all ways. They all worked very hard to ensure we had a great time. Food was exceptional. Nothing was too much trouble. Ship was very clean and well maintained.. A couple of suggestions to make it even better. Have the 3 course meals at night rather than lunch. Or at least vary it. Maybe another night with some entertainment involving music and dancing. All in all a wonderful trip.
