The cycling was incredible. Hats off to the tour leaders with differents cycling levels of comfort cycling amongst the group. They were amazing, Tonka and Lauren! I would do another in a heartbeat.

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.

Fantastic! Our 2 hosts Tonka & Lauren were outstanding & so patient, especially with those of us that were not seasoned cyclists. The WhatsApp group was a great idea to keep everyone in the loop We lucked out with a great group of fellow travellers that made the experience one to remember.

The trip was excellent. The guides (Tonka and Lauren) were exceptional: skilled, knowledgeable, informative and funny. They made it a pleasure! The boat crew was very good too, keeping us safe and well fed. It was an “active” holiday, with challenging biking routes. Thank heavens for e bikes! I highly recommend seeing Croatia by bike and boat.

The holiday was excellent. Well organized and efficiently executed. Great communication both orally and through What’s App! The plans for each day were clear with a good description of what to expect on the ride ( maps, swim stops, road hazards, coffee/lunch stops) and also many suggestions of sites to see during free time. Great staff on the barge as well.. Plenty of food! Accomodations were as expected. Small but each room had its own washroom.😁 Croatia is a gorgeous country , and what a beautiful way to see it by bike and barge..

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.

Our holiday was wonderful. Our guides Antonio and Ivica were outstanding. Their directions, caring, and attention to our needs was outstanding.

We couldn’t be happier with all the crew.

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 👍

The holiday on the Princeza Diana was very enjoyable. The wood work in the salon really made you feel that you were on a sailboat. The crew were friendly and attentive, Chef made some delicious meals while we were on board. Our biking guides Ivica and Antonio helped us make so many memories over the 7 days of riding. They were always attentive and helpful if we were struggling with certain aspects of the ride. I would highly recommend this bike and sail

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

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

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

I would have no hesitation in recommending the Sail Croatian Bike Tour. Cheers Kathy

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 !!!

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

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.

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

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

Thank you for your 3 star review. We’re delighted you enjoyed beautiful Croatia, swimming in the Adriatic, the fabulous food onboard, and particularly the professionalism of our crew and quality of the ship. We appreciate your comments regarding the scheduling and would have liked the overall experience to have felt more personal. Port timings and local conditions can sometimes impact the planned cycling and daily schedule, but we understand the disappointment when this results in shorter activities. Your feedback regarding the guidance ashore and optional excursions is also valuable, as we want these experiences to genuinely enhance our guests’ time in Croatia. Thank you for sharing your experience and we hope to have you onboard again in the near future.
It was a fantastic week. The staff took such good care of us. Jelena, Max, Andrej and Borna and the chef and Captain and his wife were so pleasant and thoughtful. The other travelers were great too and I felt like I was leaving with a boatload of new friends.

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

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.

Biking through the islands was trip-of-a-lifetime incredible with amazing vistas and exposure to culture we could not have experienced otherwise. The only disappointment was we paid for a premium ship and due to some issue with our ship Sail Croatia had to contract a smaller ship with less comforts and it was too small for the number of passengers.

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

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

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re delighted to hear that you found the staff, food and itinerary wonderful and that you enjoyed beautiful Croatia. We are sorry that your cabin did not meet your expectations; however, we would like to clarify that your booking was for our Premier ship category, and Mali Luka is a Premier ship within this category. Our Premier ships offer a comfortable style of small-ship cruising rather than a luxury experience, and bookings are made by ship category rather than a specific vessel. This is why the individual ship is confirmed closer to departure. We also outline in our FAQs prior to booking that cabins across our Premier ship fleet vary in size and configuration and may feature twin beds, a double bed or a bunk-bed style arrangement. While we always endeavour to accommodate guest preferences, a particular cabin layout cannot be guaranteed within this category. For guests looking for a higher standard of accommodation and amenities, or who would prefer to select their specific ship and cabin type when booking, we also offer our Luxury Cycle product. We appreciate your feedback and are pleased that, despite your disappointment with the cabin, the staff, food and itinerary were highlights of your experience.
Nothing like it -- beautiful landscape, skilled and personable crew, community formed by biking and sailing. Best combination of activities for the best vacation ever.

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

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

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.

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

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

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re delighted to hear that you had a great vacation and particularly appreciate your 5-star rating for the flexibility of the tour, including the balance of cycling, swimming, exploring and sailing. We’re sorry that some aspects of the ship did not meet your expectations. You travelled on our Premier ship category, which is designed to provide a more comfortable small-ship experience, rather than a luxury product. For guests looking for a higher standard of ship, amenities and overall comfort, we also offer our Luxury Cycle product. We also appreciate your comments regarding the meals and onboard drinks offering and pricing, which we will share with the relevant team for review. Thank you again for travelling with us. We’re pleased that, despite these areas of feedback, you ultimately had a great holiday and enjoyed the overall Cycle Croatia experience.

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!

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

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

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

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

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.

An Unforgettable Week with Sail Croatia! 🇭🇷🚴♂️⛵️ What an incredible experience! My Sail Croatia Bike Cruise was truly one of the highlights of my travels and a week I will never forget. Croatia is absolutely breathtaking, the crystal-clear Adriatic, beautiful islands, charming villages, incredible scenery, and some amazing cycling. There is something very special about spending the day exploring Croatia by bike and then returning to the boat to relax, share stories, laugh, eat, and enjoy the company of such a wonderful group of people. What really made this trip exceptional, though, were our guides and crew. Joško, Cal and the team were fantastic—professional, knowledgeable, fun, caring, and genuinely passionate about making sure everyone had an unforgettable experience. They made us feel less like guests and more like family. Their energy, humor, and love for Croatia made every day special. The entire crew deserves recognition. The hospitality was wonderful.

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!! 🚲🇭🇷❤️

Fabulous trip, would recommend to anyone who likes to e-bike and meet new people. We sailed on the “Princess Diana” which was beautiful and very comfortable. The e-bike’s were easy to ride, rode around islands for seven days under the guidance of Lucy and Ivan who were excellent. They gave us great recommendations for places to visit and eat when we weren’t riding. The food was served fresh and delicious, bar on board too Sonya and Daniel did a great job. Overall, a great trip with friends, meet new friends and would do it again in a heartbeat!

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.

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.

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.
The bikes were in tip top condition and very powerful given the hills and the heat. The tour guides were very helpful. The boat was in beautiful condition. The meals were excellent. Fruit juice could have been fresh and better coffee. Otherwise a wonderful experience.

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.

Callum in particular was very entertaining and made sure everyone was happy and enjoying themselves. The crew were fantastic. We wanted for nothing. They were all so helpful. Our boat was the Mali Luka. I was hesitant at first as I thought it looked a little small but it was fantastic. Well maintained by the crew and many places to sit and enjoy the view while sailing Would absolutely 100% do the trip again and will definitely tell others about it.

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.

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.

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..

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.

This cycling trip was wonderful, our sibling guides were the best - Dora and Andro. Thanks for a well planned and executed journey around the islands. The food was wonderful too. I have many wonderful photos but not available to upload right now.

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 departed from Dubrovnik to Split on the Princeza Diana starting on June 6th. We were first met by Matilda (Tilley) who greeted us. We knew from the first greeting that this was going to be fun. Miranda was catching up later as she was coming from another boat. I would highly recommend this trip. Both guides get 5*****’s. They were phenomenal and worked so well together. Thank you for looking after all the details and making our vacation so memorable! Miss you already.,

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.

Excellent. Was beyond my expectations we were looked after by Miranda & Matilda. They made the holiday fun & relaxed. Get very safe in their experienced hands. I hadn’t ridden an e bike before & not regularly cycling. They led us to beautiful scenery & supported everyone each day out. Was a wonderful experience & fantastic way to see the islands. Matilda’’s Story time during the break in rides were interesting too 😁 Thank you Miranda & Matilda so happy to help us all with anything. We had a wonderful holiday. Being from Australia it was a great surprise to see another Australian on board the cruise with Matilda too. Our cruise boat Princess Diana was fantastic & the crew on board made our holiday a wonderful experience. (Just more pillow choices in the room I would have been better as they were too soft for us).

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 just returned from a lovely week with Sail Croatia onboard the Dionis, cycling Dubrovnik to Split. Everything was perfect. The staff/crew were superb. Our guides Marin and Nataša were extremely knowledgeable, providing detailed history and interesting facts about the areas we cycled. Most importantly, they made sure everyone was safe while cycling. This company was highly recommended to us through friends. I echo this sentiment and hope to return on another adventure soon.

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.

My husband, myself and a friend just completed a Bike and Boat Sail Croatia tour. We absolutely LOVED it!!! Our guides Joško and Callum were extraordinary in the way they created a sense of togetherness, safe biking and so much fun!! The scenery was exquisite. We loved the beauty and tranquility of biking on quiet, beautiful islands. The crew of the Mali Luka were wonderful too. The food was amazing and gluten free food was offered at every meal, which was wonderful for my friend and I as Coeliacs. Thanks again Josko, Callum and the crew for a trip of a lifetime.

The cycle/cruise was the perfect combination of exercise, relaxation and socialization combined with lots of fun and laughter. The Captain and crew of the Mali Luka took great care of us while the Sail Croatia host and cycle guide Callum and Josko went above and beyond to make sure we were safe, looked after and enjoying every moment of the trip!

Our bike cruise aboard the Mali Luka exceeded our expectations. Our tour guides Calum and Yosko were excellent in every way. They were very knowledgeable about the islands and Croatian history, and it was inspiring to see the passion they have for their country and its beauty. Every morning they gave us an overview of our ride after breakfast, and it was a joy following them across beautiful landscapes and small, charming villages, with some incredibly breathtaking views. Both of them were accommodating, fun, and a real pleasure to be around. You can tell they enjoyed their job and made sure all their guests were happy and fulfilled. The captain and crew were top notch as well. They were attentive to the guests and provided great service for meals, drinks, luggage (on and off the boat) and whatever other needs came up. Cheers to the Sail Croatia for providing a wonderful trip with an awesome staff!

Fabulous! Our entire trip was magical. We sailed between multiple Croatian islands, and were able to see multiple sections of each by our daily morning cycling excursions. Our 2 tour leaders were fantastic in every way. They were so knowledgable, so kind and so helpful and they kept us safe on some busy roads. The boat crew were all fabulous. The boat was spotless, and the food was fabulous. Thanks for a great trip.

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.

An enjoyable way to cruise the dalmatian Islands with some local exploring by bike. The guides were fantastic, nothing too much trouble, and the e-bikes made for easy riding on these hilly islands. The boat provided comfortable communal areas but I recommend booking an upstairs cabin as the below deck ones are damp and poorly ventilated. I have special dietary requirements ( vegan) and the food provided was inadequate - vegans need protein too! I had to supplement the meals with my own provisions

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!

It's hard to put into words just how amazing our Sail Croatia adventure was. We started the trip with 19 friends celebrating milestones together, but one of the highlights was connecting with the other travelers on board. By the end of the trip, the Canadians, New Zealanders, & all of us felt like friends too. Our guides, Josko and Calum, were outstanding. The morning bike rides on each island took us through beautiful countryside and charming towns we might never have discovered otherwise. They shared local history and culture, gave great recommendations, and helped bring everyone together. The entire Mali Luka crew was wonderful. From the captain and sailors to the chefs, The food was excellent, and the kitchen team did a fantastic job accommodating a variety of dietary needs. Between the sailing, cycling, breathtaking scenery, fascinating history, wonderful people, and incredible crew, this was one of the best trips I've ever taken. Special thanks to Josko & Calum for making it unforgettable.

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.

With the support of a great crew and our extremely knowledgeable and conscientious guides, Andre and Ana, I had a truly special time biking on a different island every day. Learning about the history and culture of each island gave great context to a wonderful trip. The food was generous, and the crew were personable, engaging, and eager to be of service. The only drawback was having to share port a couple of nights with a party boat that disturbed our special peace. It would be helpful if Sail Croatia could better organize with the harbor master to separate boats for partying from those looking to wake early each morning.

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.

The guides we were so lucky to have this week - Tonka and Olia - were so well prepared, knowledgeable and fun-loving. And then there's Croatia! What can I say...but WOW!!

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.

The Princeza Diana was beautifully renovated and was very comfortable. Thanks Sail Croatia.

A group of 14 of us just got off the Mali Ante after the most memorable, idyllic and enjoyable week ever! We were exceptionally lucky with the weather which certainly helped. It was 28-32°C everyday with gorgeous sunshine and smooth waters. The southern island Cycle Split Return itinerary offers the most cycling and each day offered a fun and new experience! The scenery is truly jaw dropping! It is the ideal choice for a group of easy-going and active couples/friends. The cabins were small but efficiently laid out and air-conditioned, and the beds were comfortable, If you are super sensitive to noise, you will want to prepare yourself as the boats often daisy-chain together while in port. Also note that the Croatian-style meals on board are very tasty but they tend to be much higher in salt than you might expect. The crew, led by Captain “Chapa” were absolutely wonderful! And as for the booking experience with Sail Croatia… service was friendly and professional! :)

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.

Best vacation ever! The right mix of structured activities and free time. The guides Borna and Ivan were informative and fun, and patient. Food on the boat was great! Josef the waiter/ bartender was smiling, happy and good at telling us to relax, that it is his job to remove plates etc from the table not ours- “ you are on vacation- just relax”! How nice is that? Cabins ( I was in the upper deck) had lots of room to store your suitcase under the bed. Overall I would recommend this trip to anyone. The bike riding was not all that hard with an e-bike, and was not pressured to ride at any level, other than ride at a speed that is comfortable for 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. .

If you want to explore islands tip to tip weaving through little villages, get small history lessons, get some great exercise (get a real bike, not an ebike), get chauffeured around on a boat and fed wonderfully- this trip is for you. All of the thinking is done for you and you get to REALLY. See croatia.

We had a great bike and sail trip on the Aphrodite in May 2026 with a great crew and guides. Food was ok and efforts to meet my GF issues was taken care of very well. Lots of history shared by guides and a few extra bike rides in afternoons was appreciated and interesting too. E-bikes were very good to ride and thankful we had them on some big uphill climbs. Would recommend to any bike enthusiasts

Overall a wonderful experience. The hides were superb, rides were great and scenery unbelievable. A couple of drawbacks - there is a schedule to rides so not as many opportunities to stop and see things or swim etc along the way as I hoped. And did get a little sea sick at times. Also would have preferred a buffet so you could serve yourself the amount of food you could eat. 3 course lunches were sometimes a lot.

Made to feel at home. Great balance of navigating to new places, cycling, eating, relaxing and exploring new places.

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.

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

Wake up, eat a simple breakfast, cycle through the most amazing ports, towns, vineyards, stop for a coffee with sweat pouring down our faces, cycle some more, get back to the boat, eat a delicious hearty homestyle lunch, cruise an hour or two to the next location, freetime in the new town to explore and grab dinner, sleep, and repeat! It was the perfect vacation for us, two good friends with kids and a busy household at home - exercise, food, and a top notch itinerary. The lower cabins are stuffy and hot (windows dont open, ventilation is weak) and some of the ports are very noisy (docked next to the party boats) so our sleeps were often poor. Everything else was well beyond our expectations. I'm not sure why more people in their 40-50s don't do this trip! They have set a very high bar!

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…)
