I would recomend Sail Croatia as an amazing way to see the beautiful islands. Our cycling guides Marin and Johnny were great, providing support and informative facts throughout the trip, with our safety as a priority. The staff on the Emmanuel looked after us very well, excellent food and very clean cabins. My only disappointment was the uncomfortable mattress.

Our Sail Croatia trip on the gorgeous Queen Jelena was one of the best travel experiences we’ve ever had. From the moment we stepped onboard, everything was organized, relaxed, and incredibly fun. The crew was outstanding — friendly, professional, and always making sure everyone was having a great time. The cabins were comfortable, the boat was clean, and the food exceeded expectations. The scenery along the Croatian coast was absolutely unreal. Every stop felt like a postcard, with crystal-clear water, beautiful old towns, hidden beaches, and hiking and biking trails. We loved the mix of activities too — swimming stops during the day, exploring islands like Hvar and Korčula, and then great nightlife and dinners both on and off the ship. If you’re considering Sail Croatia, do it. It’s the perfect combination of adventure, relaxation, social fun, and breathtaking scenery. We already want to book another trip.

My sister in law and I had the best experience on our Sail & Cycle Croatia tour. Our holiday began in Split. As we sailed along the coast to various ports, we cycled to cover more ground. I give this company my 5 star rating for the dynamic time we spent on board and in every port. Thanks to our Dionis crew, I highly recommend Sail Croatia for your next adventure. Zivjeli!

We had an outstanding time with our friends cruising from Dubrovnik to Split on Olimp. The itinerary was well organized, the sightseeing and swim stops were great, the food delicious and the crew were outstanding in catering to our every ask. The boat was spotless and kept that way the whole week. Our cruise director Vedran gave us excellent briefs and kept us well informed on the daily program. He was a wealth of knowledge and very well organized. The Captain was very friendly, professional and an excellent ship handler and seaman, as were his crew. The servers were very pleasant and efficient as was the maid. The cooks provided a varied menu of excellent Croatian dishes and tasty desserts. They and the servers were very attentive to those with food allergies. The Captain's Dinner with some local entertainers was truly memorable. The people in Croatia wherever we went were also very friendly and hospitable. Thank you Olimp for a wonderful experience in Croatia.

This was a holiday shared with friends old and new. From the moment of arrival at the Quay to every day on board, excursions and final departure, everything was seamlessly managed. The captain and his boat staff were super friendly and always willing to go the extra mile to ensure every request was addressed. The food was excellent, fresh local produce which was beautifully presented and delicious. Amazing from a small kitchen with 2 very dedicated individuals , the chef and his support. The cabins were cleaned thoroughly everyday and the 2 bar staff , Pamela and Luce were brilliant with a good sense of humor. Our Sail Croatia rep Vicko was just fantastic with a great deal of history and local knowledge. He managed to keep us informed, learning about Croatia and laughing the whole trip. His relaxed informal style meant everyone enjoyed chatting with Vicko. The whole trip exceeded expectations.

Our trip through the Croatia islands with Calum aboard Tempura was fun and educational. The trip was from Split to Dubrovnik visiting wonderful islands along the way. The crew was extremely hardworking and helpful. Our guide and leader for the week was Calum. If you are fortunate enough to have him as you cruise leader, know that you will have an amazing holiday. He was very knowledgeable about each stop as well as the history of each island/town we stopped in. He planned trips, dinners and events every day making the trip extra special for my wife and I!

An unforgettable trip! The sail & hike itinerary from Dubrovnik to Split was expertly led by Mate and Saša, whose love and pride for Croatia shone through every story and hike. They were informative, entertaining, and perfectly balanced. The islands were stunning with crystal-clear waters, charming villages, and breathtaking views from clifftop vantage points. On board, the food was fresh and generous, cabins surprisingly spacious and spotless, and the crew professional and welcoming throughout, with Marko and Vlaho taking excellent care of us all week. Will hopefully return to experience a different Sail Croatia itinerary!

While the ship (Esperanza) was a bit tired, the crew was amazing. Our tour manager, Dino, was the best. He was so attentive to the guests and responsive to our needs. He had to make several itinerary adjustments due to weather, but still had special events scheduled in most locations. Mio & Ivo were also a great servers and bartenders and tge chef, Vladim was excellent. I’d be back next year if we had the same crew on an updated ship.

Our trip through Croatia aboard the Almissa was genuinely unforgettable. From the stunning coastline and crystal-clear water to the incredible atmosphere on board, everything exceeded expectations… but what truly made the experience special was the crew. The Almissa crew went above and beyond every single day to make sure we were safe, entertained, comfortable, and making the absolute most of every stop along the journey. Their energy, professionalism, and attention to detail turned an amazing vacation into a once-in-a-lifetime experience. A huge shoutout to Mava, our tour guide, who somehow managed to do it all!! Organizer, entertainer, problem-solver, local expert, and overall legend. He kept the trip running smoothly while making every moment feel effortless and fun. By the end of the cruise, none of us wanted to leave. You know a trip is special when the goodbye feels emotional. We left with incredible memories, new friendships, and a

My trip with Sail Croatia on the Almissa was truly the trip of a lifetime. The crew on Almissa - Mava, Kafka, and Ceazer are the best and became instant new friends. Mava is the cool local friend with the best, honest recommendations that truly elevated my experience in Croatia. Kafka and Ceazer behind the bar are the life of the party and kept our spirits high throughout the day and night! The food was delicious and the rooms were clean and spacious. I would 100% recommend to any friend that the best way to see Croatia is by boat on the Almissa.

Had a fantastic week on Mali Ante with our guides Mario and Matilda who worked together professionally to manage our group. We had some challenging weather for our hikes which did cause some plans to change, but all was done with our safety and comfort in mind. I would highly recommend this 1 week sailing trip.

We sailed on the Mali Luka, and had the very best time! The boat captain and crew were professional, highly capable and friendly. Our guides were not only skilled and extremely knowledgeable, they embodied the friendliness and beauty of amazing Croatia. The food was great, the scenery breathtaking, and the crew and guide staff brought it all home with local knowledge and humor. Hard working professionals loving their jobs and sharing the jocularity and joy. Thanks for a great time, Mali Luka!!

It was a really good holiday. Mario and Matilda were excellent guides the crew the Cook and the Captain were really helpful and really good people. People the only fault I could find was most boats I’ve been on have free tea, coffee available and afternoon snacks the places us we visited and the hiking that we went on we made all the easier by the crew and the tour guides we both really enjoyed it. The tip situation where we were supposed to have a blank envelope so it was at Unknown what cabin the tips came from did not happen the envelope had everyone’s room number on and name. I really feel like this needs clarifying from yourselves as you have already said the staff are well paid and tipping is optional and the amounts that were suggested from yourselves for per person I believe for far too high and I believe no amount should be suggested i.e. top end or bottom end for tips as this is down to the individual of what they can afford without feeling pressurised this tainted the holida

Was truly a trip of a lifetime! It was a very special way to celebrate a friend’s 60th birthday. Everything was above expectations from the ship, Queen Jelena, to the captain and cabin crew, with special thanks to Pamela and Lucy, who we kept quite busy provided excellent service and always with a smile! The food was excellent, especially the daily 3 course lunches that could rival any top restaurant! Our sailors, “ the Joseph’s” kept us safe on swim stops and our comings and goings on the boat. Our “cruise director” Sail Croatia rep.,Vicko, was wonderful. His daily briefings on the day’s destination and activities were always entertaining and informative. He messaged us reminders, directions, restaurant suggestions, and meet up stops. He’s very personable and made the day to day so easy! I highly recommend Sail Croatia, you will not be disappointed!

Our trip could not have been better! The Princess Diana is a beautiful boat perfectly set up for navigating port to port and biking. Our cabin was comfortable with all the amenities needed though most of our time was spent in the salon, on deck, or biking. We cannot say enough about our tour guides Ivica and Ana. Safety of the riders was always top of mind. Ivica knows the islands intimately and he planned rides with stops for great photos, a swim and coffee or ice cream. Ana’s knowledge of the islands’ history is impressive and her clever antidotes and “myths” entertained us. Chef is a master and the food delicious. Tea and Danny were engaging and professional and took time to explain each dish. Especially memorable was the Captain’s Dinner! The Captain and crew were amazing, getting us to port on time and in a favorable location. We enjoyed watching the docking maneuvers…great team work! The ideal weather and our new biking friends made the entire week perfect.

My husband and I were a little concerned as we hadn't ridden a bike for many years and we are both in our early 60's. We are fit and healthy and adventurous. We were also concerned we may be the eldest in the group and didnt want to hold anyone up on the bike rides. We loved it. The E bikes made it so easy. The guides were fantastic.and just so great at their jobs. We rode everyday and are now going to book another E bike tour. we are hooked. All the other guests were around our age and we all had a ball. The food was excellent. The rooms were great and the beds comfortable each with our own ensuites. The only down side was the alcohol on board was very expensive and you cant take any on board.

We did the Elegance Dubrovnik-Dubrovnik cruise on Esperanza and had a fantastic time. Dino, our tour guide, was super professional, friendly, and communicative with the entire group and really made our trip memorable. He answered all our questions, gave excellent recommendations for dining & sightseeing, and managed the details of our transportation back to the airport flawlessly. Ivo and Mio also deserve special mention from the crew since they were particularly attentive and friendly throughout the cruise and helped those of us wanting to learn some Serbo-Croatian with patience and humor. Captain Jure was a total professional and clearly a skilled seaman as he guided us through some heavy seas on our return to Dubrovnik. Overall a fantastic visit to some of Croatia’s most beautiful spots with a wonderful ship & crew.

Wow! From the moment we stepped on board ‘Olimp’ we both knew we had made the right choice choosing Sail Croatia. All of the crew, tour manager (Vedran) and the Captain all made us feel like family and went above and beyond to make our whole experience a memorable one. We made the decision to do a small boat cruise rather than a huge ship, and it was the best! The cabins were spotless and very comfortable. No trouble sleeping at all onboard. Meals on board were delicious each day and five star in my opinion. The Captains Dinner was amazing. So much fun and laughter. Great food and drinks. We will be recommending Sail Croatia to all of our friends who are thinking about going on a cruise. Thankyou all again for a memorable holiday that we will never forget. Until we meet again Colin and Deborah

I travelled as a solo passenger but needn't have worried. From the offset it was the friendliest group of passengers, staff and crew i have ever met. The 2 Sail Croatia leaders, josko and Lauren , were outstanding and nothing was too much trouble, managing to change my picky carnivorous diet to a vegetarian one after 2 days. It was exactly the same with the crew of our boat, the "Dionis"- a very comfortable and ideally sized boat for the holiday- bigger boats around seemed too big and cold compared to the smaller boats. The excursions and cycle routes were absolutely ideal. Most of our 15 passengers opted for the E-bikes but 4 of us had the normal calf powered versions, which didn’t detract from the enjoyment. We had the chance to have a swim stop most days and after a chilly 10 minutes swim, the scorching onboard showers were a very pleasurable welcome experience. This was my first time as a solo traveller on a group trip but i now see it as the only way forward in future

We joined the crew of the Princezza Diana in beautiful Split, Croatia and over the next 7 days, made our way to Dubrovnik. Our amazing hosts and guides, Tonka and Elena, assisted by the ship's Captain and crew, made our journey memorable in a very positive way. We saw spectacular scenery and did some challenging and fun rides each day. Tonka and Elena made sure everyone was safe and that we learned about what we were seeing. The bicycles provided were high-quality and in great condition. Flyer was the brand of the e-bikes we used. We met some wonderful people from all over the world on our trip, It's a vacation experience I suspect we will do again. A word of caution: Unless you're an avid (perhaps even hardcore) cyclist, plan on renting the e-bikes. The hills you will climb are both long and steep - but beautiful!
