This holiday ex exceeded expectations. The itinerary, guides and information, cycling, food, boat, the attractions and the group were all fantastic. It had been recommended to me but it was even better than I expected.

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.
- Janice, 06/10/2026 19:06, Travelled in a Couple
We had a great experience with Sail Croatia! The boat was very nice with comfortable cabins, larger than we expected. The food was delicious. We enjoyed the company of the other passengers as well. We were very impressed with our guides Ivica and Antonio. They were very knowledgeable and helpful. We had never ridden e-bikes and they made sure we were safe and enjoyed the experience. The riding was beautiful and we were able to enjoy it all the more with such competent guides. They also shared their love of Croatia with us which truly made this a wonderful trip. We highly recommend seeing the islands this way!

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.

We thoroughly enjoy the whole experience! The boat was comfortable , friendly and efficient staff, great bikes and tour guides, and wonderful meals..

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 👍
- Barb and Dave, 05/10/2026 07:22, Travelled in a Couple
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
- Kathy, 02/10/2026 18:04, Travelled in a Couple
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 !!!
- Kim, 02/10/2026 07:24, Travelled in a Couple
Very good, lots of fun. Lucky to have a great group and guides on board.

Had an excellent time. The guides were professional and friendly and did an excellent job navigating the changes needed due to weather. The crew as well as the captain was friendly and helpful. The rides were challenging since I didn’t have an e-bike but I had lots of support from everyone. Be aware there are many climbs at 10% and a few easy rides with easier hills.
- Anonymous, 30/09/2026 15:59, Travelled in a Couple
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.
- Vicki, 29/09/2026 17:48, Travelled in a Couple
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
- Sue, 28/09/2026 16:39, Travelled in a Couple
Fabulous. Lots of exercise for sure. We are regular cyclists and found some of the hills gruelling as we were on regular bikes. Would actually recommend ebike rental as 80per cent of group had them. The crew was very friendly and food was delicious. If you like to be active this is the vacation for you.
- Teresa, 27/09/2026 05:47, Travelled in a Couple
We had a fabulous week on our Sail Cycle cruise. We sailed on the Mali Luka. Our cabin was very comfortable, food was plentiful and varied, the service wonderful, thanks Matao. Thank you to all the staff and Captain of the boat, everyone was bery helpful and upbeat, nothing was to much trouble. Our guides Calum and Sasa were amazing everything ran perfectly, they were a great double act kept us smiling and laughing the whole week. Kept us on schedule and safe every ride, we loved Sasa’s local history stories!! The optional excursions were fun and worth doing , it was great to go out with the group. The electric bikes were high quality, well maintained and easy to operate. Croatia is beautiful, we loved all the Islands we visited. We would certainly travel with sale Croatia again.
- Maggie, 25/09/2026 23:19, Travelled in a Couple
This was one of the best vacations we have taken. The combination of biking through the islands with amazing tour guides Saša and Callum, sailing on Mali Luka with skilled crew and Captain Ivan, eating fabulous authentic Croatian food prepared by chef Neno, and relaxing with new friends….perfection! This is not a luxury cruise, but the crew and itinerary more than made up for it.
- Gina, 25/09/2026 15:07, Travelled in a Couple
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.

Thank you for your 4-star rating and for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re pleased to hear that your first Cycle Croatia experience was mostly positive and that you particularly enjoyed the rides, bikes and the organisation and information provided by our guides. As you mentioned, an issue with the originally allocated ship required us to make a last-minute vessel change in order for your cruise to continue as planned. We appreciate that this resulted in some differences onboard and apologise for the disruption this caused. 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.
Everything good except we paid for a premium upgraded ship and it was changed to a lower grade ship.

Thank you for your feedback, and we’re pleased to hear that everything else about your experience was positive. Due to a last-minute operational change, the vessel originally allocated to your departure did need to be changed, and we apologise for any disappointment or confusion this caused. However, your booking was for our Premier ship category, and the replacement vessel was also a Premier ship, meaning there was no downgrade in the category booked. We would also like to clarify that our Premier ships offer a comfortable style of small-ship cruising, rather than an upgraded or luxury ship experience. For guests looking for a higher standard of ship, accommodation and amenities, this is offered through our Luxury Cycle product. Thank you again for travelling with us and for your understanding regarding the last-minute vessel change.
Croatia is such a beautiful place! Our guides, Lucy and Dora, were perfect and provided just the right amount of “stories” about Croatia and a huge dose of fun every day. They were the perfect team and complimented each other very well. We were also lucky to have asuper assortment of travellers from all over the world and made friends we hope to spend time with again.

We had a great time sailing the Croatian islands with Sail Croatia. Our crew was great and able to pivot with fires on one of the islands. Princeza Diana boat was very nice and recently remodeled. Weather was spectacular.

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. Great crew, very informative and friendly

Our Sail Croatia Cycling Tour was absolutely wonderful! The Princeza Diana is a very beautiful boat! Our cabin & the common areas on the boat were very comfortable & clean. 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. The coast of Croatia, & the Dalmatian Islands that we cycled on, were gorgeous. This was definitely a trip of a lifetime for us!
- Marcia, 16/09/2026 00:39, Travelled in a Couple
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.

Our Sail Croatia Cycle Cruise was fabulous !! Cycling on the islands provides an opportunity to see more than just the ports and who better to show you the culture, history and sights than local Croatian guides. Tonka and Ema were fun, patient and informative, making our cruise a very memorable trip !! The amount of cycling and free time to explore each island was a perfect mix. The small boat group was just the right size to get to know others with simimlar interests of cycling and traveling.
- Shirley, 10/09/2026 05:51, Travelled in a Couple
Thank you for your fabulous review! We’re delighted you had such a memorable Cycle Croatia cruise onboard Dionis and enjoyed the perfect mix of cycling and free time. We’ll be sure to pass your kind comments on to Tonka and Ema!
Fabulous! I cannot think of how it could have been better.

This was the most spectacular holiday/vacation we have ever had. Our Tour Managers, Ivan and Mario, were amazing!! They were extremely knowledgeable, helpful, kind, fun, and provided so many historical details as we cycled around the various Croatian islands. We have already recommended this to others. Fabulous!

Our Sail Croatia Bike & Boat tour was truly unforgettable! Cycling through Croatia’s countryside, along the coast, and into small villages gave us a unique way to experience its beauty. Ivan and Lucija were an incredible team—knowledgeable, encouraging, energetic, and so much fun! “Eco 4!” and “Follow Me!” are phrases we won’t soon forget. Their stories and insight into Croatia’s history made every ride even more meaningful, and by the end, they felt like family. The entire crew made this trip exceptional. Marko and Marija served incredible lunches, Sanja welcomed us with a smile, Danny's Princess Diana cocktails became a favorite tradition, and Ana kept our cabin spotless. Damir and Nikola worked tirelessly with the bikes, and our friendly captain added to the warm atmosphere. The ship was beautiful, comfortable, and more upscale than expected—a perfect place to relax after a day of cycling. What a beautiful, and in my opinion, the ONLY way to see really see Croatia!! 🚲🇭🇷❤️

It was beautiful and amazing! Every stop was breath taking thanks to our amazing tour guides luci and Ivan. We had such a great time! The chef did not disappoint with every dish he made. We look forward to coming back to do another tour only to sail Croatia only if it’s luci and Ivan as our tour guides.
- Sara, 18/08/2026 13:01, Travelled in a Couple
This holiday exceeded all expectations! We sailed on the Princenza Diana which was an absolutely beautiful ship with very comfortable accommodations. We felt so lucky to have Ivan and Lucy as our guides because they worked so well together to make the cruise and the cycling so special. They truly cared for everyone on board and made sure that we stayed safe while e-biking through so many beautiful destinations along the Dalmatian Coast. It seemed like every turn provided another picture perfect view! We were also pleasantly surprised by the delicious breakfast and three course lunches on board the ship. The Chef and the staff provided great meals and service, but we also were happy to enjoy dinner in port and experience the hospitality of the Croatian people. This is a fabulous holiday for anyone looking to enjoy the beauty of Croatia while staying active with fun and like minded travelers.

This Sail Croatia trip was absolutely fabulous and the daily cycling adventures added an element that just makes the trip even better. The memories created and new friends will last a lifetime . The crew , the ship were all fab. A shoutout to Sanya on her first season - you were great. However the special teamwork shown by Lucija and Ivan made this trip 100% ! Lucija‘s historical knowledge and Ivan‘s quick wit make them a gem team . I cannot fault this overall experience and will be recommending it to all.

Great mix of exercise (cycle), site seeing and travel. Croatia is a gem!! Loved small ship. Quaint. Food was fantastic. Only suggestion would be to improve bar- can only order listed cocktails. Croatian wine options were good. Great energy of crew and guests. Cheers to our guides Lucy and Ivan along with experienced captain and great cook. Ana even found us a fan for the room as it was a hot week.

We had a fantastic time on the sail croatia bike cruise. The water was so calm and the bike rides were a blast, not too difficult, but we got to see the beautiful landscape of Croatia. I can’t think of a better way to have visited the country! Shout out to Miranda and Lucy for being wonderful guides

This trip was perfect in every way! Vacationing with a group of like-minded people was more fun than I imagined. Miranda and Ohla were the best guides, taking care of us and every detail. Croatia is stunningly beautiful, and the sail/cycle was the perfect way to see so much!
- Elizabeth, 06/07/2026 20:53, Travelled in a Couple
We have just completed cycling sail croatia week. A few recommendations for sail croatia to consider for upcoming trips, and for travellers who are considering this trip. If you are travelling as a couple you need to specify you want a double room. The food on the boat was very tasty however the orange juice in the morning could be greatly improved. They could also increase their variety of wines on board. Miranda our cycling leader was excellent and very supportive. Time spent in some of the villaages I felt was rushed, definitely wished we had a longer duration in Havar. If you enjoy an active holiday this is definitely one to consider as a way to see Croatia.
- Roisin, 06/07/2026 09:12, Travelled in a Couple
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're delighted to hear you enjoyed the cycling, found the food tasty, and that Miranda made such a positive impact on your trip. Regarding the bedding configuration, whilst we're unable to guarantee specific bed types on our Cycle Croatia cruises due to the varying layouts of our vessels, we absolutely welcome guests to let us know if they have a preferred bedding configuration. We do our best to accommodate these requests wherever possible; however, as ship allocations are finalised closer to departure and each vessel has its own unique cabin configuration, we are unable to guarantee them. This information is outlined on our website and within our booking information prior to travel. For guests seeking guaranteed bedding configurations, our Luxury Cycle cruises offer this option. We also appreciate your suggestions regarding the orange juice, wine selection, and the amount of time spent in some of the destinations. Thank you again for your valuable feedback, and we hope to welcome you back to Croatia in the future.
This holiday exceeded my expectations. Staying on the boat was a luxury, the cabin was very well fitted out and it was great having air-conditioning. The staff on the boat were all very friendly and the food was very good., it was lovely being served local dishes too. Our guides were also very friendly and fun to be with. Our briefings at the start of each day were very helpful and on our cycle routes we discovered beautuful islands taking in some spectacular scenery in Croatia. . I was very impressed with the organisation of the whole trip, we were very well looked after.. We had plenty of time to relax, swim each day and do a little sightseeing too. I would definitely recommend this holiday.

We enjoyed an exceptional week of sailing and cycling around the islands of Croatia. Our crew and guides, Miranda and Matilda, were fantastic. The boat, the food, service and guiding were all 5 star. We cannot recommend this holiday enough. BOOK IT!

Absolutely loved. Would recommend to everyone. Great mix of activity, social, land stops, afternoon relaxing on boat, safety, and meals. Felt well looked after and guided on good routes. Food good. Husband said he thought the boat might have been more upmarket given what we paid. I happy but didn’t know what we paid (haha).
- Michelle, 02/07/2026 05:05, Travelled in a Couple
This was incredible-so much so that I intend to do it again! The scenery and history of the islands can only be experienced in person-pictures can’t begin to tell the story. We loved our bike rides each day-and on an e-bike we were able to enjoy the hills and the heat! We saw historic churches, fortresses, and UNESCO heritage sites in a peaceful and idyllic way. We ended with the city of Dubrovnik-which made us appreciate the quiet beauty of each island even more. The limestone buildings have been so well preserved, and biking through fields of olive groves and lavender gave us an up close view of life in Croatia. Swimming in the Adriatic Sea after a morning of biking was a great way to cool off before heading into a new historic village each night for dinner. Our guides Tonka and Tosha were integral in making sure we had a fun, safe, interesting and unique experience.
- Tracey, 01/07/2026 06:09, Travelled in a Couple
The absolute best Holiday. Everything was top notch and the staff went out of their way to make sure we had a fantastic experience. The food was excellent and boat super clean and beautiful.

Can't decided what made this holiday so special. Was it? The beautiful boat, amazing food, excellent cycling routes, knowledgeable guides, friendly crew or were we just lucky to be with 28 fun holidaymakers that made us laugh from dawn to dusk. A holiday we will never forget. Thanks to all the crew on the Mali Luka and a specail mention to the captian who one morning presented me with a coffee on deck at 6.30 a.m while I was taking in the views. Calum and Srdan our guides, were always there to help, kept us updated, shared their knowledge and organised extra trips that enhanced our experience. We have already recommended Sail Croatia 🇭🇷 and will continue to do so. Thank you
- Amanda, 26/06/2026 08:44, Travelled in a Couple
It was just fantastic. I think the main reason was the organisation and beauty of Croatia but I can hand on heart say that our tour guide Calum made it so that it went from great to excellent . He was truly amazing. What an asset he is to your company … he was interesting endearing articulate and just a fantastic guide I know that it’s his job to be knowledgable etc but he went above and beyond and was just amazing. The whole crew were fantastic as was Serdjen Calum was next level though. We had fun saw beauty and learnt about each place we visited -

Enjoyed the biking and guides. Crew was great.Views were spectacular. The cabin left a lot to be desired. Terrible mattress, bathroom was a mess, couldn’t shower without wetting the whole room, AC was subpar.. The food was mostly good, with several poor mains and sides. fruit cocktail from a can should not be served for dessert. drink prices on board were extremely high, five euros for a small Coke..

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the cycling, found the guides and crew to be great, and were able to take in the spectacular views throughout your journey. We also appreciate your honest comments regarding the cabin, dining, and onboard drinks. Guest feedback is invaluable in helping us identify areas where we can improve, and we will be sharing your observations with our operations and catering teams for review. While we're pleased that much of the food met your tastes, we're sorry that certain meals and aspects of the cabin experience fell short. We do note that meal ratings from other guests on your departure averaged 4.57 out of 5; however, we fully appreciate that dining experiences and personal tastes can vary from guest to guest, and we respect your individual perspective. Thank you again for travelling with us. We truly value your feedback and hope to have the opportunity to welcome you onboard another adventure in the future.
A really enjoyable all round holiday experience . our sail croatia guides Tonka and Callum , set the bar high with fabulous well chosen locations and clear explanations on hazards to look out for, sights to see and stops for the best ice cream, coffee, swimming or my favourite; ‘story time . Which was a joint effort by both guides to relay useful historical or geographical information . We had a super group of guests and the crew of the boat were helpful, The Boat Captain and our SC guides used their local knowledge to alter our harbour destination due to changing sea conditions. On day 3 a storm hit us in the calmest of harbours, and apart from strong wind through the port hole we slept and awoke for breakfast. We cycled a different route and all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. It takes quiet skill and knowledge and years of working with locals to select the best positions in the harbour. Ours was a real holiday , exercise, sunshine, friends, good food, lovely staff. Thank you.

We had a wonderful time with a wonderful crew and guides. We were a small group which only made it more special. Tonka and Callum were amazing and we loved all of their story times, where we learned do much about Croatia and the unique Dalmatian islands. Every island was different as was every ride, all enjoyed thoroughly. This was the first time we have done a trip like this , as we have always done all of our planning ourselves. It was nice to put those details in such capable hands. Thanks for a wonderful experience!

No words can describe how amazing this trip was. Everything was wonderful. The rides were breathtaking. The bikes were top notch. The crew onboard were kind, professional and attended to all our needs. The food was incredible and the attention to detail and presentation did not go unnoticed. Our guides, Matilda and Miranda were incredible. They navigated our cycles with expertise , explaining each ride and keeping safety at the forefront. Matilda had great stories for us on about all the places we visited. Cannot recommend this trip enough.

Wonderful, beautiful scenery ! Marin & Johnny were the perfect pair and excellent guides delivering 5/5 stars! Marin's historical knowledge was impressive; he was a mine of information and great local recommendations, he really took care of everyone! Johnny gave us the best restaurant recommendations or tips of where to go. Some of the bike rides took us up very steep hills and windy roads close to the cliff edges and while the views were beautiful I'm scared of heights, but luckily Johnny was there to support and kindly encourage me down, he was lovely! Kerim our bartender was very attentive & our food was good! Our ship was immaculate but it was older so while we had an upper cabin our bed was positioned up against the wall so I had crawl over the bed to get to my side. It wasn't the end of the world but we felt like we were camping :) which is why I am giving this review 4 stars! I'd highly recommend this trip, all the islands we visited were amazing and we loved Croatia!

We had a wonderful time on the Mali Luka with Josko and Calum. They ensured our safety and took us on some of the most beautiful places I have ever seen. The Mali Luka crew also took such great care of us and the good on the boat was delicious! We all wondered if we were gaining weight vs losing it with our rides the food was so good. All in all it was a perfect experience. I highly recommend this experience for anyone traveling to Croatia as it was simply amazing.

Fantastic, loved the island rides especially in quiet places. Amazing coastline and beautiful views. Great guides and staff. Things that need improvement . 1 needed softer mattress 2. A system to log guests on and off securely so no-one can get left behind. 3. Give all info before getting off to start riding to save confusion. 4. Do not rely on apps as not all can use mb phones when traveling & riding. 5. Self serve Tea and coffee should be available free to guests.6. Meals do not need to be so formal or take up so much time. 7. Bikes need bells for safety and small panier bags to carry items securely.

We really enjoyed our recent cycling trip with Sail Croatia. We cycled during the mornings which were cooler. And a daily swim in the beautiful Adriatic Sea was a nice, welcome complement to the cycling. We particularly appreciated how attentive our guides, Marin and Natasa, were. They ensured that all cyclists stayed together, were safe on the roads and knew how to operate their ebikes safely. In addition, they provided the group with a fairly detailed description of the day’s ride as well as some history of the area. Marin and Natasa were very welcoming and engaging hosts. We have already recommended this trip to friends!

Fabulous holiday, great fun aboard the Afrodita, Josip and Sasa our terrific guides kept us well informed of history of the island, safe along our cycle routes and it was obvious to see how much they enjoyed the job. Great team on board Peter and all the crew looked after us all so well. Lovely food from the small galley kitchen. Highly recommend this trip a great way to see Croatia.

Sail, cycle and swim north from Split on various islands and the mainland. A holiday different from others and a wonderful experience! Fantastic captain Zoran, crew and tour leaders Lucija and Tonka made every effort to make this a great experience. Cabin was fine, excursions lovely, food delicious and plentiful.

Our cycling trip was wonderful. Croatia was amazing. Our tour guides, crew and boat exceeded our expectations. We are already considering booking for next year. Thank you for an amazing adventure. 🇭🇷🩷🇭🇷

Wonderful holiday from the start to the finish! Boat and crew were 10/10! Our guides Sasha and Joseph could not have done a better job at looking after us! Highly recommend!
- Kylie, 08/06/2026 07:39, Travelled in a Couple
We enjoyed the bike rides, the sceneries were beautiful. The e-bikes worked very well. The group was a bit too large, a bit squeezed on the boat. The meals were excellent but we would have liked at time more buffet or picnic type of meal. We enjoyed a lot swimming from the boat, the Adriatic sea is so beautiful . Our guides, Marin and Martin, were excellent. They cared a lot for the security and were extremely knowledgeable, very pleasant peuple, I recommend them to all the groups.
- Nicole, 05/06/2026 12:11, Travelled in a Couple
Our guides were amazing. Crew brilliant. Costs such as port taxes and park fees were a bit of a surprise. Cabin was on the lower deck and was really damp even with the door left ajar. We were not allowed to open the portholes overnight whilst docked. Double bed was way too high to get in and out of comfortably.
- Anonymous, 03/06/2026 19:14, Travelled in a Couple
It was great overall. Some of the things outside of the biking was that things like port taxes and park fees were not included in the costs. The cabins were also quite damp below deck and our bed you nearly had to take a run and jump to get into it as it was really high. Not great for an older couple.

This trip was incredible from start to finish. So well organised from start to finish, the boat staff were very friendly and obliging, the guides were a delight, the onboard food was delicious and the upstairs cabin was cosy but comfortable. It helped that the weather was perfect every single day. The e-bikes were a joy to ride - even the uphill parts were a breeze. We rode mostly on public roads so you do have to be a bit careful but there isn’t a lot of traffic. The guides always gave excellent briefings to make sure we were prepared for the day. The scenery, the colour of the water and the towns were so beautiful that it is hard to believe it is real. Handy tip - you will need a lot of cash (though there are ATMs everywhere) plus the drinks onboard are relatively expensive. Apart from that, it was an amazing trip and I was so sorry when it ended.

Had a wonderful time with my husband and our friends who came with us. The unexpected bonus was that we also made so many friends on the boat. Loved everything about the trip. Scenery was spectacular, food was delicious and healthy, biking and swimming was fun, and employees were great.

We thoroughly enjoyed our days cycling around the islands. Our guides Marin and Martin were superb! The ship however needs some work. The room was not very clean as well as the ship. The room we were given was right next to the engine which awoke us each morning and also smelt of exhaust.The captain was very nice but his staff seemed uninterested in their jobs and did a lot of sitting around (while the ship needed) cleaning.) The food was not very good.

Hubby and I just completed our second trip with Sail Croatia - the first was in 2018. We're delighted that this second trip was just as good, if not better than the first. The crew of the Mali Ante were outstanding and Tonka and Olha as the bike tour leaders were excellent. - everyone particularly loved Tonka's 'story times'. We highly recommend adventures with Sail Croatia!

Had an amazing trip , was great variety with cycling, sailing and amazing towns - we were fed very well with so much food , the guides Miranda and Ana where very knowledgeable and helpful, the ride is not for the light hearted some serious hills so definitely need to be confident on a bike - Croatia flat is definitely not flat 😂 definitely appreciated the electric bikes All the staff where amazing , would highly recommend

This was the best trip/experience we have ever had! The boat and cycling was the best way to see the islands of Croatia. The Captain, crew and tour guides, Tonka and Olja were so wonderful in all ways. We felt like family and friends on a magical tour! Our experience with these fantastic people was a heartfelt and exciting memory for us. We hope to return again for another week with this same crew and guides ❤️
- Kimberly, 01/06/2026 16:06, Travelled in a Couple
We had a lovely time on our Sail Croatia Bike Cruise. I will recommend but with these suggestions. The food on our ship was not great. Edible but poorer quality than I expected. The crew tended to be quite surly and mostly smoked or were on their phones. Our guides were phenomenal and did a fantastic job. They really made the trip. The bikes (we all had e-bikes) were very good quality and easy to use. The scenery was fantastic and luckily we had a large (33 passengers) group but everyone was great and got along well. I would strongly suggest upgrading to premier plus or looking at a higher quality company if good food and a nice ship are important to you.

I filled the quick review onboard but understood there would be a more thorough evaluation of our trip. The biggest concern I had was the food. It was not up to standard. You should hire qualified trained chefs. Thousand island salad dressing was over poured on all salads. White bread for the most part. Not alot of citrus fruit. Overcooked tuna at captains dinner and appetizer unappealing. The captain wore a sweatshirt at the captains dinner. You couldn’t order a glass of wine you needed to buy a bottle. .

This was a unique and marvellous way to enjoy a lovely part of the Adriatic coast. Our sailing vessel was beautiful and crewed by an exceptional team. The biking/ tour guides were spectacularly well prepared and made this trip wonderful .

We arrived in Split during a deluge but the welcome on board Mali Luka from crew & fellow guests was warm. Cabins are sparsely furnished but clean and functional- not a lot of cupboard space so pack a bag that can be opened and accessed from under bed. Comfy bed & cotton bedding. Clean cosy en-suite bathroom. Meals on board plentiful with drinking water available whilst galley open and fruit bowl. Complementary tea and coffee would have been nice. Bikes and cycling was great. Many using e-bikes which were good in the heat & on steeper climbs. Swim stops scheduled for most days. 3 course lunch on board after cycling was a great time to informally chat with other guests. Our guides Ivica and Sassa were next to none with helpful info about the route, local history and things to see, do and eat after The daily ride. We travelled around many islands and mainland small towns during the week as well as the cycling so this type of holiday is just The perfect way to see & experience Croatia.
- Jennie, 25/05/2026 13:20, Travelled in a Couple
This bike sail was recommended by my sister who did it two years ago. We are by no means active at home but wanted to challenge ourselves by doing something active and adventurous. I can seriously say this was one of the best experiences I have ever had. The guides Marin and Olja were just exceptional. They looked after the group like we were precious cargo. The bike rides were amazing, exhilarating and great fun. We chose e-bikes as did most of the group and there was a wide range of experience from very little to very experienced cyclists but we had no problems keeping up. We really enjoyed being part of a group. We got on so well and have made many new friends. I have come home renewed with enthusiasm to get more exercise and have now bought an e bike. I cannot recommend this tour highly enough. It is not luxury but it is great fun and loads of adventure

We highly recommend this trip. It is superbly well organised, the guides and crew were lovely and the boat was fine. The islands that we rode through were so beautiful and interesting. The bikes were sturdy and reliable and well serviced. I needed a smaller bike because I’m small and that was provided easily. All good. Lots of happy memories. Do it!

We would like to express our sincere appreciation for the outstanding work done by the crew of the Emmanuel during our experience aboard the boat. We would especially like to highlight the exceptional work of the two guides. They were always ready to help, highly professional, and at the same time very personable and approachable. Their dedication truly went above and beyond our expectations and made our experience even more memorable. We would also like to recognize the excellent work of our guide, Marine. Hi extraordinary knowledge of the history of his country and his unique way of sharing it with us were truly remarkable. At times, we felt as though we were attending a fascinating history class. His passion was evident in every explanation, and it greatly enriched our journey. Please extend our gratitude to the entire team for making this such a wonderful experience. Kind regards, Valerie LeBel Roger Pelletier

I had a great time. Guides were outstanding (Josko and Lauren). I felt safe in their hands. Itinerary: I would have preferred more kilometers The bikes were basic and minimal. I expected better quality, especially the non E-bikes. The boat was fine. I did not need anything fancier. More than adequate The food was good but often overcooked. (The captain was a great pilot, he has no business interfering in the kitchen) Portions too big; buffet style may be better. I appreciated breakfast as I could serve myself and the variety was perfect. The portions at lunch were way too big. I dont like wasting food. The staff were courteous, friendly and helpful. Consider other drinks at the bar (juice, lemonade…)

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.
- Lisa, 19/05/2026 08:50, Travelled in a Couple
joska and Lauren were fabulous and the crew of Dionis. there were some blips but they sorted it out. the bikes had issues and i would suggest not using that supplier agsin

It was a great experience. The scenery was outstanding - every island had so much to offer. The guides Miran and Johhny were awesome. They kept the group safe and we learned a lot about the history of each island and Croatia in general. They treated everyone like family. The ship, Emanuel, was great- rooms were good, sun deck on the top is nice. We were fed well- breakfast and lunch every day. I enjoyed the authentic Croatian cuisine at lunch. The cooks made outstanding meals.
- Monica, 18/05/2026 10:12, Travelled in a Couple
We had a wonderful experience meeting new friends and cycling across the islands. We had e-bikes which made the cycling easier because the hills are big. Our food on the Mali Luka was exceptional. The crew was great! Lots of fun!

Fabulous holiday!! Our 2 guides Tonka and Elena were very professional, experienced, kind and fun.

We experienced great service and were completely satisfied with our trip. The captain and crew did an outstanding job navigating us through the outer islands near Split. Our cycling guides Miranda and Lucy were always cheerful and enthusiastic. The e-bikes are very user friendly and can power up the hills with no problem.. Lucy helped us to learn about Croatian culture and history at our rest stops while riding through the beautiful countryside. Extra add ons like wine tasting, olive oil tasting and a meal on a local farm.added to the experience.

What a wonderful week travelling on the Mali Luka from island to island to cycle in beautiful Croatia. We appreciated the emphasis on safety and fun at the same time. Our guides Ivica and Sasha treated everyone equally and made us all feel very comfortable. The routes are a mix of lengths with varied scenery keeping it interesting. Historical facts were shared about each location. The staff work around the clock making sure that the experience for clients is sensational. Excellent communication with WhatsApp throughout. Book this adventure as soon as you can!

Just about everything!!! This was the most enjoyable vacation I have ever taken because the Sail Croatia staff - tour director Sasa and Ivica (cyling guide) made it all so easy and fun. We had one raiiny cool day and they even made that fun - there was no way I was missing out on the ride. I also loved how they recommended or organized things to do on the various islands after the ride - like learn about stone masonary, going to a local winery for a wine tasting and even a local live play. After I had a little fall (not on the bike) they came to my rescue immediately and made me feel safe. I will always love Croatia and I hope to return next year to try another route --I will ask for Sasa and Ivica and I would follow them anywhere. I already miss them and this amazing holiday and it has only been three days since our tour ended. .

We had an incredible experience with Sail Croatia! The cycle guides (Andro and Lovre) and boat crew (Lucia, Valentina, and all cooks and staff) were helpful, attentive to detail, and made us all feel right at home in a new country. We had a few weather shifts that meant we had to pivot the original itinerary a bit and I couldn't be more impressed with how they made that feel seamless for us passengers. We enjoyed the daily cycling routes and the food provided on the boat was outstanding, too. My only feedback would be to provide swimming towels (those are a pain to pack, let's be honest) and shower soap in the bathrooms! Thank you for an amazing trip!
- Anonymous, 16/10/2025 17:27, Travelled in a Couple
Everything about the e-cycling/sailing trip was a wow. The sights, the bike, the people, the food. It was all fantastic. Croatia is a stunning country-and very hilly. The e-bikes worked perfectly, for an occasional cycler, I had no problems and didn't mind the hills at all. We had some weather to contend with and the crew pivoted quickly and very professionally. Finding last minute ports, bike rides and great experiences and places to dine. We stayed above deck and would recommend that. Also got bike shorts and glad we did, we were comfy all week long. If you are thinking about this, just do it. It was an unforgettable experience.
- stephanie, 13/10/2025 18:54, Travelled in a Couple
Just a really great way to see coastal Croatia. The boat gave us a clean and comfortable base for bicycling. The roads were consistently hilly, but the e bikes were up to the task. I had mine on high power for most of the rides and never ran out of juice. We agreed that we might have handled the hills without e bikes, but it would have been way less fun! Our weather in October was cool for swimming, but worked well for biking, even though the Borro winds were blowing. The staff was professional, the on board food was delicious, and the villages we visited were clean and interesting.
- Cleo, 13/10/2025 17:08, Travelled in a Couple
We had an incredible week sailing and cycling from Dubrovnik to Split with Sail Croatia! The route was stunning, the e-biking experiences were well-organized, and the landscapes were unforgettable. The Sail Croatia team overall was professional and ensured everything ran smoothly — big thanks to the guides and crew who made the adventure memorable. That said, we felt the dining crew could have been a bit more friendly and approachable. While everything was handled efficiently, a warmer, more engaging attitude would have made mealtimes even more enjoyable. Overall, it was a fantastic experience and a unique way to see the Croatian coast — highly recommend the tour, and we hope to see continued improvements in hospitality on board.

We just finished our 8 day ride Sail Croatia trip & it was fabulous……on so many levels!. Firstly the staff were fantastic, They looked after us all superbly whether sailing our boat in rough seas, serving up endless delicious meals & keeping us safe on the bikes …….they were nothing short of superb. We loved our “active time” with Tonka & Ana, seeing the various villages & landscapes, hearing the history of Croatia & challenging our fitness levels & then some “down time” before exploring the villages. It was a great mix of activity & relaxation. From 2 very recreational riders we loved the cycling. And lastly, our group! We had sooo many laughs & it was special to connect with 28 “new friends” from all parts of the world. Thank you Sail Croatia “A” Team

Our trip started in Dubrovnik where we joined our Sail Croatia boat. Communication about the departure information was clear. We’d arrive a couple of days early to explore the Old city which was a good move as there’s plenty to see. We found it very clean and the locals friendly. A lot of cruise ships arrive into major cities which does lead to a lot of other tourists about. Once we joined our boat and sailed off to our first island with our friendly adventurers, calm resumed. Croatia is surprisingly mountainous but with most of us on sturdy e-bikes that wasn’t a problem. Five of the 32 guests were using regular bikes but all were strong cyclists and powered up the inclines. Cycling through olive groves and vineyards as well as through ancient villages was a real pleasure to complement grinding up a mountainous road to the lookout at the top. Early Oct weather was a little chilly but the sun shone several days and no rain. I did get a few mossie bites. Food on board was good.
- Jennie, 10/10/2025 06:51, Travelled in a Couple
The staff! Ivica and Sonja, our guides, were fabulous! I would give them 10 stars if I could!!!! Couldn’t have asked for better. Clearly they love their jobs and love people! They gave wonderful recommendations. Excursions they offered were amazing, being immersed in their culture. The food was excellent. Just trouble keeping food warm, which is understandable on a boat. Chef was top notch. Food allergies were handled nicely. Wait staff and sailor and other staff couldn’t have been kinder and more helpful. On the biking tours, I recommended that no photo taking while biking should be a strict rule. Very dangerous for biker taking photos as well as other bikers in the group!! Boat needed some updating. Cabins were clean but very small. We would totally book another tour, maybe on another bigger boat. Thank you to everyone who made our tour so wonderful!!

This was my first time in Croatia traveling with my husband and another couple from the US. The cruise was above and beyond my expectations. The food was outstanding. We had hot breakfasts and 3 courses for lunch every day. Our guides Jasco and Ana were both amazing. The bike rides were all well planned but there were some changes due to weather, which they improvised very well.. Both of the guides emphasized safety first . This was a great way to see Croatia and a few of the beautiful islands. I would highly recommend this cruise to someone looking for an active and fun vacation.

We planned an entire European holiday (from Australia) around this trip. From the moment we boarded Emanuel to the time we disembarked we were having the time of our lives. The boat is immaculate and has everything we needed for the week of sailing. Its crew are exceptional and ensured every need of every passenger was met. A special shout out to George, the chef. Every meal someone else cooks for me is hugely appreciated, but George went above and beyond to serve delicious 3 and 4 course meals, tailored to our dietary requirements. Every day (except our boarding day ex-Dubrovnik) we cycled a new and exciting place. All routes were suitable for all levels of experience, scenic and fun. We opted for e-bikes, which proved to be a great idea. I mean, we were on holidays after all. The cycling guides are knowledgeable and careful, without spoiling the fun. If you’re thinking about booking this, take our advice and go for it. You won’t regret it and we may see you there! J & J September 25

I knew this trip would be great but it exceeded my expectations. I never rode an E bike before just mountain biked but felt very comfortable on both dirt roads and roads with cars. A wonderful way to enjoy the scenery which was exquisite. Could have rode a little further on some days but did appreciate having a day to explore on our own. Both Andro and Tony and the rest of the staff were so nice and very knowledgeable and helpful. The weather was perfect and sailing between the islands was smooth and very relaxing. The boat was nice and clean and room accommodations were comfortable. We were pleasantly surprised to come back from our ride half way through the trip and bedding and towels were changed out. I will without a doubt recommend this trip to friends. We also had a great group of other passengers that we enjoyed meeting.

We thoroughly enjoyed our trip on board Colombo. There was a perfect combination of cycling, boating, swimming and relaxation. The staff were extremely polite and attentive, particularly Marin and Josip who were always approachable, helpful and fun! I look forward to doing another trip with Sail Croatia and recommending them to friends.
- Sally, 27/09/2025 06:24, Travelled in a Couple
The staff and guides were lovely and kind. The wait staff Valentina and Lucy were so friendly and obliging. It was a pleasure to talk with them. The guides Toni and Andre were fun and informative and it was nice that they sat and ate with the guests.
- Antonella, 27/09/2025 03:40, Travelled in a Couple
The cycling guides were great and very informative. The islands visited were beautiful and steeped in history. The staff were attentive and met all our needs, very hard working. Kudos to all the staff.

We enjoyed our experience on this cycle cruise. The small ship of 32 passengers made for a warm friendly gathering where strangers quickly became friends. The crew was attentive and the food was great and very abundant. No one will go hungry on this cruise. A special shout out to our Sail Croatia guides DORA and LOLA. Dora was super human and led the group up the hills without breaking a sweat. Sweet Lola was the sweeper making sure everyone was safe and gave interesting history at our stops. I rate them 5 out of 5 stars. I would recommend this adventure to anyone who enjoys cycling. Note - I am just a recreational rider and didn’t feel overwhelmed on an e-bike. Classic cyclers will find this to be more challenging on Split to Split Soutern route. A trip that will be a lifetime memory.
- Patty, 23/09/2025 06:16, Travelled in a Couple
Lola and Dora were our guides. They complimented each other so well and made the week a lot of fun for us! Very friendly and informative guides with a good sense of humour! Cycling the islands allowed us to see so much! Loved everything about this trip. My only suggestion…perhaps a smaller group would be better .

Our cycling and Croatia storytelling leaders (Miranda and Borna) were extremely passionate, positive and personable with each of us on the ship. They had a wonderful touch to make us enjoy each day - from challenging cycling to amazing views and recommendations on what to visit in each island. They worked collaboratively with the ship crew and the crew mutually so with them and us on the ship - thanks also to Marco, the sailing crew and amazing chef and cooks in the cuisine. I would consider doing this again and recommending this to my friends.
- Christine, 22/09/2025 14:47, Travelled in a Couple
The meals on the ship were the best I have ever had. Every day the lunch or dinner was outstanding. The crew was great and I would give them 5 stars. However, information from the guides about possible activities in the towns often wasn’t sent to me in time to do anything with the information, We also needed more help from them than we received in arranging our transportation extremely early on the morning of departure.
- Phyllis , 22/09/2025 11:17, Travelled in a Couple
La combinaison vélo, baignade, navigation était très agréable. Nos sorties à vélo ont été un pur plaisir grâce à nos guides et à nos vélos électriques.

Our Sail Croatia cycle cruise was fantastic! Every day a beautiful ride, beautiful scenery and learning and laughter with the two best guides you could ever hope for - Dora and Lola the “Dynamic Duo”! These ladies took great care of us and made us feel like a team. Our group bonded very well and Lola and Dora were a big part of that. The ship crew was also great dealing with food and bar service, moving bikes every day, Dimur constantly cleaning and caring for the ship and the captain’s steady hand. All in all, one of the best things we’ve ever done. Croatia is beautiful!
- Wendy, 22/09/2025 07:53, Travelled in a Couple
The Premier Plus ship was fabulous. Loved our large below deck cabin. The crew were amazing, food fabulous and our Biking Tour Guides, Dora and Lola, Awesome. Sail Croatia managed to create a guest list on the Princeza Diana that just ‘worked’ from Day 1. We all commented on how well we all seemed to ‘fit’. We enjoyed each other’s company from Day 1. We highly recommend this cruise - Go Premier Plus!!
- Kathy , 22/09/2025 06:28, Travelled in a Couple
Had a great week with Sail Croatia on the sail and cycle from Dubrovnik to Split. The boat crew were absolutely fantastic, food was amazing and plentiful. Tour managers were knowledgeable about Croatian history and managed our group very well. Would highly recommend this trip

We have just finished our Ride Croatia . Our guides Toni and Andro were amazing . So helpful and informative . The bikes were very easy to use and in excellent condition . We loved stopping at each port and exploring the islands. The boat was well maintained and our rooms very comfortable too . Absolutely loved it .
- Fiona, 19/09/2025 04:35, Travelled in a Couple
First off our guides, Ivica and Ilona were the best. They kept 30+ people of differing interests and physical ability engaged and enthusiastic every single day.....even the day it rained. The routes chosen provided spectacular views and gave us the opportunity to see parts of the islands that visitors to only the port towns would miss. The ship was comfortable and meals on board were very good with a some outstanding moments. Daily information on the plans and suggestions for that day took all the guesswork out of it. Very well organized with everything planned to the last detail but also flexible depending on group preferences and weather.
- Wendy, 16/09/2025 05:24, Travelled in a Couple
The combination of a cruise and e-bike trip was perfect for us
- Pauline , 16/09/2025 04:38, Travelled in a Couple
Our guides were Josko & Ana, what a team! We had a couple of windy days & one wet day. The communication was quick & kept us updated with options for our bike trips. The banter was fun & their knowledge of history/ old stories kept us intrigued. They were very giving with their time & expertise, & we felt they went above & beyond to make sure we had plenty of information to plan & enjoy our onshore time. The boat crew were great, always available & worked hard to make sure everything ran smoothly. The meals… no one went hungry with our chef! If you’re on the fence about this tour, you will not be disappointed!
- Leigh, 15/09/2025 18:56, Travelled in a Couple
We were blessed to have a wonderful and friendly crew and 2 guides Ilona and Ivica who kept us safe and informed whilst having great fun on the bikes! A group of like minded people on the boat just added to the experience! What a great opportunity to explore such picturesque places combined with biking, swimming and a little walking and sometimes dancing in the evening (you needed to exercise off the amazing meals prepared by our skilful chef). A fun week which ended a little to soon! Thanks to crew and fellow travellers for an amazing experience!
- Robyn, 15/09/2025 14:21, Travelled in a Couple
We had been before, the trip was as good as before but the food was so much better. The boat was better too and we had upstairs cabins that we liked better.
- TESSA, 15/09/2025 13:11, Travelled in a Couple
We did the sail and cycle in September and it was great. The crew were great, our guides were hands down amazing, the food on board was terrific. We used hybrid classic bikes and it was hard work on some of the hills, so just be warned if you are considering classic bikes. The terrain was much different than we expected. We felt very accomplished by the end of our adventure.

- Sharyn, 15/09/2025 07:06, Travelled in a Couple
Just returned from our fantastic cycle cruise with Sail Croatia with husband. It was glorious and just what I had envisioned: fun cycling with e-bikes through lovely scenery along the coast and on inland roads (only a few intrepid souls conquered the prolonged and steep hills and switchbacks on regular bikes); sunny and warm days; great food and beverages; comfortable accommodations on the boat; swimming in lovely clear or aquamarine water; and warm interactions with our fellow cyclists and amazing staff. I am particularly grateful to Sanja and Miranda for the care they showed us as my husband’s cycling experience was limited. Sanja’s daily storytime about history and culture, and Miranda’s care when my bike had a mechanical problem were truly appreciated. I also loved their attention to detail during our daily briefings. Finally, with Miranda leading and Sanja sweeping, it was liberating to be able to stop to take photos without holding the group up. Truly a fantastic vacation!
- Donna, 10/09/2025 13:11, Travelled in a Couple
Andre and Ilona went above and beyond all expectations for quality of service , dedication and punctuality. Their passion was shared with everyone on the tour. They should be offered extended and improved contracts immediately................or you are not doing your job!
- Don, 09/09/2025 13:56, Travelled in a Couple
The tour guides, the islands, the water, the food! I could go on and on! Just perfect!
- Jill, 09/09/2025 08:21, Travelled in a Couple
Visiting the small island coves and gorgeous harbors from the comfort of our boat was the experience of a lifetime. We loved the biking and the swimming. Our group became fast friends and we loved our guides. The food was healthy and delicious . Hats off to Miranda and Sanya for leading us to one beautiful place after another and for sharing all of your local knowledge. You were always cheerful and patient. We loved our trip! .
- Gretchen, 09/09/2025 08:05, Travelled in a Couple
Most wonderful time on this gorgeous boat! The food was so healthy and delicious. The boat staff was so attentive especially Ljbisha! Miranda and Sonia were the best guides - not only on the bike "roads" but about the beautiful country of Croatia. Both very good communicators with a serving attitude. We'd sail with you again! The E-bikes were wonderful too. Thanks for a most memorable vacation. Patty & Matt Edling
- Patty, 08/09/2025 23:57, Travelled in a Couple
We loved our experience biking daily and enjoying the town sight later. The entire crew was great, food was excellent. Andre and Andro were awesome guides and going above and beyond to have a safe biking experience but also to see amazing towns! Would definitely recommend!
- Erin, 07/09/2025 14:26, Travelled in a Couple
We recently had the best week of our 6 week trip from Australia with Sail Croatia. Miranda and llona were so lovely, personable and fun. The tour catered to every level of ability and the e-bikes were excellent quality. I would do this again in a heartbeat- A great way to see beautiful Croatia. Oh and the food George and the lovely crew created and served was something to look forward to each day.
- Kerryn , 06/09/2025 07:30, Travelled in a Couple
Great diversity of cycle routes and port stops. Guides were great! Boat crew also great. Meals lovely but would have preferred dinners rather than lunch as I wanted a swim, shower and nap after my cycle rather than having to sit for two hours in a stuffy fining room in the middle of the day. The bed was so hard that I longed for morning to come.
- Mab, 30/08/2025 06:53, Travelled in a Couple
We had such a great time on board. The food was amazing, thanks George the girls in the bar clearing up were friendly Johanna and Andrea. Our guides were fun and clear about what was going on. Thanks Miranda and Ilona. We would recommend this to anyone who enjoys riding.. I think website should be clearer that breakfast is a full buffet breakfast! Also that our riding is usually done in the morning with a late lunch.

Andrej and Sanja were perfection in their tour leading. They were informative, funny, kind, humble, and extremely respectful to all the levels of riders. PERFECTION. The food was DELICIOUS. From breakfast to a huge lunch which was exceptional. Cheers to the kitchen staff for all their hard work! Can’t say enough about the tour and crew - they made the trip that much better!!!
- Jennifer and Jeremy, 18/08/2025 07:59, Travelled in a Couple
I loved all the rides...and the electric bikes were wonderful. We had excellent guides: Guide Ana gave us some great history information for of all the places we toured. Guide Andre kept the pace going and prepared us very well for each phase of the bike ride. The food was ok but needs to be updated. The salad lunch buffet was the best meal served. Guest wants light food--not soups when the temperature is hot outside or creme cake desserts at the end of every meal. . Food was tasty but the chef needs to cook for 2025--NOT back in the 1980! Otherwise--excellent trip and I will highly recommend the trip to all my friends. I would go on another but at a different location.
- Joy , 10/07/2025 15:08, Travelled in a Couple
Just returned from a cycling cruise with Sail Croatia and it exceeded every expectation. The experience was seamless, adventurous, and full of heart. Huge shoutout to our incredible guides, Tonka and Sanja — a true dream team. Tonka’s biking expertise and Sanja’s rich regional knowledge elevated every moment. Their chemistry, energy, and care made the journey unforgettable. The onboard crew was just as fantastic — thoughtful, attentive, and always ahead of our needs. They found incredible swim spots and created a welcoming, relaxed vibe from day one. The group dynamic was a joy thanks to Tonka and Sanja’s humor and warmth — we bonded fast and felt like family. And the food? Outstanding. Fresh, flavorful, and crafted with care. This trip struck the perfect balance of challenge, culture, and comfort. I can’t recommend it enough — especially if you’re lucky enough to have Tonka and Sanja as your guides.

This trip aboard the Mali Luka was amazing. We are big time cruisers and usually sail with big ships like Princess. We've done one Viking cruise but this one was so amazing. There were only 28 total passengers and we all got along great; it's like they hand picked people that all had the same outlook and personality. The rides each day were to the most beautiful areas I've ever been to. The e bikes made even the steep uphill climbs easy. We were given options on some of the days to stop or to continue our rides (some even choose to not go on some at all). Our ride crew Miranda and Matilda were so great; always looking out for us and keeping us safe with perfect pacing. Sitting on the top deck while we cruised along was my favorite part. We choose the bottom deck cabin which was super small and tight. No complaints by anyone on any level about noise from other ships. The crew worked very hard (not super friendly but friendly enough). Captains dinner was nice; very nice guy.

Ivan and Lucy were phenomenal guides. They took us to beautiful out of the way places. They took time to research ahead of time the most authentic Croatian experiences. We got to meet local people and experience their way of life. All while experiencing incredible scenery on off the beaten track roads. They were encouraging and nurturing. Felt very safe and supported on the bike rides. Lucy was very knowledgeable about the history of Croatia and her stories were very educational. Getting back to the boat was always a treat because Andre knew what we wanted to drink, and the meals were delicious. The ports were small and cozy feeling. Swimming off the boat was spectacular, the water was so clear and brilliant. The other passengers were equally delightful and interesting. We couldn't be more pleased.
- Joanne, 26/06/2025 13:32, Travelled in a Couple
The entire crew for our Sail Croatia trip had endless energy and created more than a trip-they built a Sail Croatia Family. The bike rides were tailored to the group. The swim stops along the way were amazing! The entire crew had fun personalities and went out of their way to make sure everyone's needs were met. The meals were magnificent. Best trip ever!

Ivan and Lucija, our tour guides, and Adrian, our salon manager, made our sailing trip one of the most memorable and magical experiences we’ve had. Their knowledge of the history, island life and customer service were high level. We always felt taken care of wherever we were. They always ensured we were given the best experiences possible. We appreciated Ivan’s extra local experiences to the caves, wine tasting, submarine tunnels. Lucija’s history knowledge and help with dining options were great. Adrian always took care of us in the salon. The three made a great team. The rest of the crew were also excellent; courteous and helpful in every way.

We just finished a wonderful week of sailing & cycling onboard the Afrodita. The crew were amazing and made our holiday extra special. The ship was lovely and cabins were as expected on a sailing ship — on the cozy side. Our tour/cycling guides, Ivan and Lucija made our trip exceptional. They were extremely thoughtful to ensure we all had a wonderful experience no matter our cycling level. Their morning briefings, their attention to each guest while cycling & their genuine desire to share Croatia with us made everyday outstanding! They were the stars of our trip!! Thank you, Ivan and Lucy!!
- Grace, 20/06/2025 13:54, Travelled in a Couple
Cycling cruise was beyond our expectations! Our guides, lucija and Ivan, were awesome! So knowledgeable and friendly. They geared our rides to what the guests wanted and shared experiences with us that we didn’t expect. They made the trip great! The food was very good. I would recommend this trip to friends! We had such a good time and can’t wait to go back. My husband is telling everyone to take this trip!

We had the most amazing time on the June 2, 2025 Split to Dubrovnik sailing adventure. Our guides Lucije and Andre were perfect. Not only were they professional, always stressing safety, but their knowledge and infectious personalities made for a perfect time. I can honestly say that the group of 32 passengers will never have as great an experience as what we had. The ship’s crew were amazing as well. Sailors, chef, manager, captain, and bar manager were all exemplary. Thank you all for giving us such an unforgettable time.

We had the most amazing time. The boat crew were amazing and friendly and very tentative. Halim our waiter did an exceptional job. Our guides Marin and Andro were amazing. Marin and Andro made sure we were safe at all times. Thier attention to our safety was imperative. Marin is so knowledgeable about his country and we learned so much about the history of Croatia and all the islands we visited. He was an excellent guide and we would request him if we do this tour again! The best and most memorable trip we have ever been on. The only critique I have is 2 pillows for the bed would have been nice and more or better wine selections. Thank you Sail Croatia!!
- Michele, 16/06/2025 12:52, Travelled in a Couple
We loved our week away with sail Croatia . It was all we were expecting plus more . The bike riding was amazing with a beautiful itinerary . We took normal bikes and it was quite challenging , If you are going in the warmer months strongly consider a ebike as the hills are hard in the heat . We loved anchoring in quiet blue coves and swimming . The crew and guides were fantastic . Thank you esp to Josip and Tashi our fabulous tour guides . We also loved meeting and traveling with like minded people from all over the world - we really had a lot of fun together . The cabins and ship was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed .

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

Beautiful scenery, clear blue sea, unspoilt islands. Good food on the boat, great cycling (but make sure you upgrade to E Bikes!), A lot of fun and a perfect way to spend a week.
- Mary, 16/06/2025 08:01, Travelled in a Couple
I enjoyed the swim stops. My room was nice, although the last full day the tanks definitely needed to be changed, as I had a room below. It would have been nice to have the names on the back of the bikes. Most people came in groups, We did not come in a group, so, we had to keep asking people their names. The Josic was very professional. I was not sure what Calam's responsibilities. The bar was very expensive for the extremely short wine pour. It was discussed by most passengers on the boat. Lunch was heavy. Maybe better to have dinner? This would allow people to relax a bit after the ride. The last two rides were short. Often I was not quite sure where we were going to stop. It did not follow the brochure. Captain said we needed to stop in different places.

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

The whole e-bike sailing trip was a hit from the moment we arrived. The welcome from the crew, to the bar & kitchen crew and most importantly our guides for our ride each day. The food was exceptional and beautifully presented! Our guides were so helpful and their communication about our rides each day were clear and conscientious of making sure everyone understood were we would stop for a break or photo opportunity. Safety was key! It was a treat to have some challenging times on the bikes as we got to see some incredible views and scenery.. If you enjoy a bit of fitness with history and fun, I highly recommend this trip! So great full to all the staff and we also had amazing weather and our group was the best!

Five stars to all the crew and guides in our tour. The friendliness and efficiency to make sure we were all taken care of in every need was amazing! The food on the boat was lovely. Learned a new favorite beer( Radler). First time e-bike and I was very glad. All help rendered as needed , from giving daily overview of day to end if day path. Captains dinner was amazing! I loved this format of sailing and biking as we saw sights that you would never see in a traditional bus tour. Thanks to all who made this possible!

We had a wonderful week on the Princeza Diana with our guides Calum and Josip. As guides, their styles were very different, but the combination complimented our group nicely. This vacation was the best way for us to enjoy all Croatia has to offer…. So much beautiful scenery, flowers, and history. Cruising along on our e-bikes was a sensory over-load in the best possible way. The worse thing about the week was that it had to end.

Our bike leaders Matilda and Srjon were amazing. The group of people ( smaller group). We became like a family on board. Keno was so pleasant serving, a real gentleman. The kitchen cooks so cheerful and accommodating. The captain of course got us safely to all our stops and then of course Mr muscles, the deck hand, hoisted all those bikes up and down. Always pleasant. Great crew. Bonnie
- Bonnie, 09/06/2025 07:06, Travelled in a Couple
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!@

From booking to check out, Sail Croatia ran a well organized operation. On arrival at the boat our bags were loaded onboard and we were greeted by the captain. Our guides for the bike rides, Mila and Mario, were excellent. They explained the trails and provided history and information on the places we visited. We were pleasantly surprised by the food at all meals, it was delicious and fresh. Thank you chef! The crew took care of us at all meals and in between (thank you Halim and Donche).

Just back from a fantastic week aboard Dionis. Our guide, Ivica was so knowledgeable and being Croatian, he had so much local knowledge.. The routes were a great mix and being the Split southern route, some aspects (on a push bike rather than e bike) were challenging but that’s what I wanted! Ivica always checked in with everyone to make sure we were all enjoying it. I spent most of my time at the back of the group, where our guide Calum kept me motivated and made the hills less of an issue by playing some cracking tunes! We had lots to chat about and plenty of laughs! Our group (8) quickly bonded and we enjoyed meals out as well as cocktails at Massimo cocktail bar in Korcula. The crew on board Dionis were all excellent and looked after us so well. There was so much food! The best way to spend a week - waking up in new ports and exploring on 2 wheels is so much fun. Croatia is beautiful. Enjoyed the swim stops (although the sea is cold in May). 100% recommend this.

Boat was comfortable, staff were professional, efficient and friendly. The food was good. Ivan and Ioana were friendly, professional and fun. Ivan was really excellent when two unforeseen issues occurred, managing these with professionalism and empathy. The others in the tour group were great. Itinerary was adjusted as needed. Highly recommended!

What a fantastic week in Croatia, cycling with a wonderful group of people. Our leads - Ivica and Calum were brilliant so knowledgeable always making sure everyone was ok, very helpful for dinner bookings they would organise this for us. I cannot fault anything it was just simply amazing. I would highly recommend it. The cycling helped us go to places we wouldn’t normally visit. We got information about each place we cycled to and the dinner stop at Gazul on day 2 cycle was truly spectacular. The group chat each day and morning briefing was so useful explaining the ride ahead, The ship Dionis was so nice and the crew were so friendly, the food served was divine. I am just so pleased we booked this. It’s a big 5 star review from me. Cath Burrus

Biking the beautiful islands. The landscapes and friendly passengers and crew. Mila and Mario couldn’t do enough for us. They were completely committed to our safety and enjoyment. Daily program was well organized. Bikes were in good condition and riding was great. Could have been longer on some days but dépendant on size of the island. Overall a very enjoyable trip.

The islands we cycled and sailed through were stunning. With an e-bike the cycles were easy to complete and I loved having the opportunity to swim as well most days. Our guides, Marin and Mario, were the highlight - keeping us safe and full of interesting information.

From the very first contact with Sail Croatia I felt confident that we were in good hands. The communication and information provided were excellent. Our guides, Miranda, Lola and Matilda (in training), were just wonderful - patient, cheerful, friendly, efficient and always helpful. Their experience and efficiency meant we never had to worry about anything all week, just enjoy the beautiful places we visited. The cycle routes were great - a good variety of terrain and views and we visited so many truly stunning places. I loved life on the ship, from the comfortable cosy, quiet (lower) cabin, the delicious vegan meals we were served, the ability to find quiet places to sit or sociable places to have company and a chat. Moving on every day to discover new places and having time to explore and plenty of free time to hike, swim, or just chill in a bar was perfect. It was our first time in Croatia and this was a wonderful way to explore. Now looking at other trips you offer …

It was evident from the start the crew member had no experience and very little English. He didn't even know what vodka was. Apparently the fridge was down so we couldn't get ice or cold white wine. Beer was ok. He did not bring drinks during the meals and did not know how to clear dishes. Food was good but cold. Cabin was good but our toilet in ran the entire week although we had asked crew to fix it 4 times. We turned off the water to the tank between uses. We would have preferred to travel to our locations in the evening instead of waking up to engines starting at 5:30:or 6:00 am every day!

What a blessing to be able to experience the beauty of the Dalmatian islands. The highlights were the bike rides! Tonka and Lucija were amazing guides with all the information required to enjoy each trip and also safe rides. Never felt unsafe on the roads. Islands are gorgeous and the bike rides gives a full sensory experience! It's definitely the best way to visit Croatia! Ante, the captain, and his crew were excellent! The only thing to improve is the morning coffee and having tea at anytime of the day part and included in the package. We were on the lower deck, and it was quiet if you have this as a priority on your trip. The group was excellent and made friends for life. Highly recommend Sail Croatia!

We travelled on the Princess Diana from Dubrovnik to Split. From the start, the guides ( Marin and Ivan) greeted us warmly and were very friendly throughout the trip. Marin was excellent at organising the rides and explaining the history of the particular island. By the end of the trip we felt that we had a real understanding of Croatian history in these islands. Ivan was great in encouraging us on the rides and doing a lot of the organisational work behind the scenes. They made a great team. Outside of the cycling, we had most interaction with the two waiters/barmen ( Ivan and Karlo) who worked so hard - especially at meal times - and stayed up late to serve us drinks after we came back from dinner. Special mention also to Marko and Maria for our “plentiful” meals everyday - prepared in that tiny kitchen. We didn’t have much interaction with the other crew members although they were super efficient at docking and getting the bikes off the ship. A great team throughout.

The staff and crew on the Mali Anti are wonderful. Attention to detail fantastic. Rooms spotless and surprisingly spacious and very comfortable beds. Risk assessments and daily briefing are first class. Food was varied and delicious. The cycling was superb with amazing routes to gorgeous Croatian villages. But the hills were long! When they say 4/5 difficult they mean it! Electric bikes looked a tempting option. But very pleased to still achievable the 100 miles on my classic bike.

It's just such good fun. It's a beautiful place and we were lucky to have great weather and even luckier to have great company. The food was a minor miracle, our cook provided such delicious meals day after day. Our two guides were great and the ships crew looked after us really well. And by the way the cycling was the icing on the cake.

We had a fabulous time on our week with Sail Croatia. The cycling was as challenging as you wanted to make it. Well organized. You see the most spectacular views on the rides. Small town coffee stops. Excellent food on board - we always looked forward to our meals! Crew were friendly and knowledgeable. Would highly recommend!
