Croatia’s Best

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.

The best week!

My husband and I chose sail Croatia for our honeymoon and it was the perfect week. We did the northern split hiking route on the mali ante with Mario and Matilda and it was perfect! The crew was SO kind and truly just a joy to be around. Mario and Matilda work awesome as a team and made you feel like part of the group every single day. They are so kind and educated, and it’s obvious they love what they do. I cannot recommend those two enough as guides! I can only hope when we come back we get lucky enough to have the same team onboard. It was so much fun! The hikes were awesome. The swim spots were perfect. It was honestly the best week.

Amazing experience!

The crew aboard the Salve di Mare looked after us from start to finish with great attentivness and humour. The boat was beautiful and spacious and I loved watching the skillful captain bringing us in and out of port. Wonderful food- (how do they do that in such a small kitchen)?! And of course, the spectaclar scenery of Croatia- crystal clear waters, majestic mountains and the idyllic port villages and towns. And finally a special mention for our hiking guide, Mate and our customer care and everything else, Sasha. Both were excellent at their job and looked after us very well and with great humour, which I loved. A wonderful experience and great memories made.

All Aboard..

This trip far exceeded our expectations. We knew the scenery and history along the Croatian Coastline was impressive but add to this a beautiful boat, wonderful crew and Sail Croatia reps and delicious food - what more could you want? We loved that you could find your own evening meal on shore and that you could join in the hiking or relax on board with a book. No pressure. Thank you to all for such a great relaxing and enjoyable trip.

Novice sailing adventure

This was a trip of a lifetime. Many challenges and so much learning which is what makes an adventure so worthwhile. We were in awe of the natural beauty of the Croatian islands with their iridescent waters and picturesque hamlets. What really made this trip though, was the friendly, responsive and thorough support we received from the Sail Croatia team.

Awesome holiday

Excellent holiday from start to finish. Mate & Sasa our hike & tour leads were brilliant - friendly, approachable & very knowledgable. Communication of information about the hikes, the history & the area were always spot on, the variety of hikes and locations we visited were amazing. Always felt safe & guided & had the best experience - fell in love with Croatia & its people. Salve di Mare is a beautiful boat, immaculately clean, great size rooms & very comfortable with plenty of space to move around. The food was amazing with a different 3 course lunch menu every day. Service in the bar & lounge from Marko & Vlaho was also excellent & we built up a great rapport with the whole team. We met a great crowd of people from across the world & have made some new forever friends. Would thoroughly recommend Sail Croatia.

Exceptional service

The accommodation, food and tour guides surpassed my expectations. The staff are obviously proud of the service they provide and continuously displeyed a high level of enthusiasm and professionalism. I personally felt respected and my needs considered. I would love to travel again with the Sail Croatia company and have already recommended their tours to my friends. For me, it was a trip of a lifetime.

Vélo, bateau et souvenirs mémorables

Deux guides exceptionnels, Ana et Ivica, toujours prêts à rendre notre expérience de vélo encore plus agréable et mémorable. Un service attentionné de la part de tout le personnel à bord, toujours offert avec le sourire, peu importe l’heure de la journée. Bravo à toute l’équipe !

Great way to stay active and see Croatia

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!

- Christine, 18/05/2026 06:35, Travelled in a Couple

So much Fun!

We absolutely loved our Sail/Bike Croatia trip. Our guides, Andro and Borna, were outstanding — organized, attentive, and skilled at keeping our group connected throughout each day’s ride. The entire boat crew was warm, welcoming, and incredibly accommodating. From start to finish, it was an exceptional experience and a trip we’ll remember with gratitude.

Great bicycle/boat tour

Fabulous holiday!! Our 2 guides Tonka and Elena were very professional, experienced, kind and fun. The breakfasts and lunches were very good, and I appreciated the availability of fresh fruit every day. We thoroughly enjoyed the locations of scenic islands that we biked through and mainland Croatia too. It was a great experience. Thank you.

The Miss Almissa Team is PHENOMINAL

I genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better trip. We had Mava as our cruise director and Caesar and Kafka as bartenders and it was the most fun and fabulous trip of my life. Everything was seamless, food was amazing, excursions were phenomenal. I would do this cruise every week of my life if I could. 10/10

Amazing experience

My wife and I travelled on the Tempera from Dubrovnik to Split. It was an amazing experience and such a beautiful country. The Sail Croatia staff was attentive, caring and friendly. We would absolutely travel with them again! Thank you for the adventure of a lifetime.

Croatia wine cruise

We really enjoyed the small ship atmosphere and being able to get to know your fellow passengers and make new friendships. The food was exceptional and it was nice not having every minute being planned for us. We were on the wine cruise and the winery experiences were fantastic. The tour leader (Lola) and the rest of the crew went out of their way to accommodate every request. I’d definitely recommend this company.

- Susan, 15/05/2026 00:10, Travelled with Friend/s

Exceeded Expectation

Fabulous Bike & Boat in Croatia with our amazing guides Elena and Tonka and the wonderful crew of the Prinzesca Diana. The boat, the food, the landscape and the organization were all well above our expectation and I would highly recommend this trip to anyone looking for an active but relaxing vacation!!

Outstanding Wine Cruise on the Queen Jalena

We travelled from Dubrovnik to Split on the beautiful Queen Jalena in May. Our tour coordinator, Lola, was incredible, generously sharing her knowledge of each port we docked at, daily menus, schedule updates, and helping with any and all queries along the way. The entire ship crew were absolutely fantastic — warm, professional, attentive, and always welcoming. The service throughout the trip was exceptional, the food was delicious, and the atmosphere onboard was just so relaxed. Every stop along the coastline was stunning, the wineries we visited were passionate about their craft, and the whole experience exceeded our expectations. In addition, we had the most incredible group of fellow travellers, all with their own interesting stories to share. Everyone looked out for each other, which made the journey even more special. I would highly recommend this cruise to anyone wanting to explore the Croatian coast in comfort while enjoying outstanding hospitality.

All to make the needs of the individuals making of our group. Our cabin was absolutely beautiful with a walk-in closet! I did not expect daily housekeeping. Anna was great.

Best way to see the islands

I can't think of a better way to explore the islands of Croatia! We spent days cycling through the scenic countryside with super competent and fun guides, and evenings docked in pretty little port towns on our beautiful ship. The Croatian crew was fabulous, the food was great and everything was really well organized. The whole week felt adventurous and relaxing at the same time. I loved every minute of it!

Vacation in Croatia

16 friends enjoyed a 7 day cruise on the Romantic Star and it was wonderful. Our food was delish & prepared with such presentation by Sivilja & Laura.. Our Cruise manager - Anita- was very informative about every island, and made excellent recommendations and reservations. Captain Ivan was Great- we even got him On the dance floor!! What a joy it was to explore such a beautiful country!!

Could have been better

I'm sorry I cannot give a 5 star review. The great things about the ship was the chef, the crew and the facilities. All great - clean, organized, well run. My disappointment was in the lack of excursions on the islands between Dubrovnik and Split. I thought that we should have some kind of introduction to each island and short walking tour each time we docked. Everyday was a swim day and because the water was too cold to swim I had hoped that an adjustment would be made to the schedule for an alternate activity. Perhaps dock earlier to give us some time off the boat. There was too much sitting around time. From breakfast, through lunch there was nothing to do if you did not swim (& no one did). We did not disembark til 2 pm. Our tour dir. did her job perfunctorily and made arrangements as requested, She was not as visible or involved with our group. Although she said she has been doing this for 4 years she came off as unsure and inexperienced.

Croatia Wine Tour

I had an amazing time!! The boat was beautiful, the wine tours were extremely interesting, and the locations were beautiful . Lola was the best! She was always upbeat and friendly ,when I take another Sail Croatia cruise I will make sure that Lola is our guide. I will always recommend Sail Croatia and Lola.

We had a wonderful trip! The Romantic Star is a beautiful boat, service was excellent and food was delicious! Our Tour Manager, Anita, was the best! Always checking on us for what we needed made reservations for dinner and adventures. Our captain, Ivan, was friendly and outgoing. Special thanks to Tony and Josephine for their great service! I will certainly refer our friends to Sail Croatia.

Enjoyed the beauty of Croatia

A wonderful adventure that exceeded expectations

The boat, Princeza Diana, was lovely and the crew was outstanding! Our daily lunches were just delicious, way nicer than we anticipated. Our cycling guides, Tonka and Elena, managed to keep 32 riders of varying skill levels safe and entertained. Our daily rides were so much fun on the beautiful Croatian islands!

- Patricia, 12/05/2026 22:22, Travelled in a Couple

Amazing trip

The wine cruise was amazing in all respects. The ship, staff and tour director surpassed all expectations. The food was very good. The chef and assistant produced incredible meals and catered accordingly for anyone with allergies etc. Lola, our tour director, was so knowledgeable and ensured our wine experiences were memories for life. The ship was perfect and our captain made decisions when the weather changed to take the safest and smoothest route. I would highly recommend this trip.

Sail and Cycle tour

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.

Happy in Croatia!

We loved pretty much everything about this Wine Themed Cruise. Our cruise director Lola went above and beyond to answer all our questions, provide helpful recommendations, take awesome photos and share lovely Croatian customs w/ us. The CREW worked their tail feathers off, especially Pamela & Lucy behind the bar! Service always with a BIG smile. Josef & Josef also worked hard to make sure our sail made it safely in and out of every port. We enjoyed having dinner w/ Captain Gordon and hearing all about his ship! The crew who prepared our meals were amazing. Not sure how they got 30+ meals all out at once from their tiny kitchen. With that being said, there were a couple of things I would have preferred. Often the food was served at room temperature which I prefer my food to be served hot. I also found it often lacked seasoning. I would have liked to see a more varied menu. With that being said… the Tuna steak was amazing and the Lamb Shank too die for! DESSERTS excellent ❤️

- Margaret, 12/05/2026 16:27, Travelled in a Couple

Exceeded our expectations

My husband and I travelled with my parents and we had the best time! Dino, George, Linda, Allie and the rest of the crew were amazing and did everything possible to make sure we enjoyed ourselves. We could have not been happier with the trip! Since I didn’t get to fill out the iPad survey on the ship I have a few minor suggestions: My husband would have preferred breakfast that wasn’t the same every morning. The shower floor was very slippery so a mat in the bottom would have been nice. The dining room was very loud when we were all there so more softer surfaces to absorb the noise would help. The days were arranged so nicely and we felt taken care of very well. Thank you!!

Our week on Princeza Diana

The experience exceeded our expectations in every way. The boat was immaculate, our cabin was spacious, the food was top notch and the crew and guides were excellent. A special shout out goes to Tonka and Elena for leading our large group with such ease. We especially enjoyed Tonka’s “story times” throughout our rides. Loved every minute of it!!

Living in a Postcard

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!

Delightful Wine Cruise

Sailing from Dubrovnik to Split on the Wine Cruise aboard the Queen Jelena was my first cruise and first time to Croatia. Sail Croatia was a wonderful experience. The Tour Leader was warm, attentive, and proactive in ensuring the guests were informed and comfortable. I appreciated the "off the beaten path" experiences with winemakers and private tours. The crew were highly competent and the ship and accomodations were clean and tasteful. With the wine focus for the trip, the group of guests from around the globe bonded and developed friendships that will last beyond this vacation. I highly recommend. I was traveling as a single woman with friends (a married couple) and always felt welcome by the other guests and staff.

- Amy, 12/05/2026 10:22, Travelled with Friend/s

A fun filled perfect week.

We really enjoyed this cruise and would highly recommend it. Our tour guide Lola was incredible, as were the crew on board. Always friendly and attentive. We did the wine cruise and I was surprised how much was included! Will go again sometime in the future.

A Wonderful Experience

Our cruise to some of the Croatian Islands was a wonderful experience. So much beauty and history. The Esperanza is a lovely boat and we were very comfortable. The crew were charming, helpful and looked after our every need. The food was delicious but three courses was almost too much at times! The Captain ran a tight ship and took us to some beautiful bathing spots in the clear waters of the Adriatic. Being a small boat we got to know our fellow passengers from different parts of the world which was an added bonus. We enjoyed our holiday enormously and will remember it for a long time to come. I recommend this holiday to anyone who loves beauty, history and warm friendly people.

Perfect week!

The entire experience, down to the smallest details, was extremely well coordinated and executed.The transfers from and to the airport went smoothly and the drivers made us feel comfortable and the one on the incoming transfer gave us great options for places to visit the day before we sailed. Anita was above and beyond helpful in all aspects of the cruise. She communicated any and all details very well and in a timely manner. She made sure to coordinate excursions and dinners in port that would meet our interests as well as making sure we knew where specific amenities we may need were located on shore. The chef and sous chef did an outstanding job with the meals. The beautiful presentation, fabulous flavor, and broad range of menus for each onboard meal was amazing for such a small kitchen.Lunch and the captains dinner felt like a fine dining experience. Ivan and the crew made us feel welcome and preformed their tasks smoothly.. Bravo to the team at Sail Croatia and Romantic Star!

Fabulous cruising

Everything about the cruise is first class. The boat “Olimp” is beautiful and extremely comfortable The crew were absolutely marvellous. The tour director gave clear and concise information and made everything we did fun as well I celebrated my birthday whilst onboard and can say that it will go down as one the most memorable! The crew helped to make my day very special. Our hostesses! What can I say attentive, friendly, helpful professional and fun too. I would love to return and do it all again.

The other travellers were good fun and we have made some lasting friends from all corners of the earth . Highly recommend !

- Nikki, 12/05/2026 06:43, Travelled with Family

I will be back!!!!

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. .

Beyond Expectations

Returned from an Explorer cruise with Sail Croatia, on the Salve Di Mare which is a stunning, luxurious and incredibly comfortable vessel. The layout is exceptional with spacious cabins, sun decks, and jacuzzi. The ship is kept in immaculate condition from the cabins, swim platforms, dining salons, to the sun decks. The service from all staff is professional, friendly, and world class (special thanks to Marko, Vlaho). The onboard chefs, every meal a daily highlight. Our tour manager Marin, was an incredible host, all week going above and beyond for our group. His local knowledge made every excursion experience wonderful. Huge thank you to the entire crew, for their exceptional hospitality, we will definitely be back!

- Stacee, 11/05/2026 14:05, Travelled in a Couple

Awesome Experience!!

Everything was so well planned. Our representative Marin was extremely helpful. I loved the way he explained what was to transpire every day and how he repeated the info on WhatsApp. The rest of the staff including Marco & Vlaho were also excellent. I am vegetarian so a big shout out to the kitchen staff who make delicious meals for me. Overall, as 2 women travelling together, I always felt safe & well taken care of. I would highly recommend.

- Irene, 11/05/2026 12:41, Travelled with Friend/s

One of my best trips ever.

The crew and tour guides were absolutely phenomenal. The tour guides kept us constantly informed, made necessary changes based on the weather and sight conditions and interacted with the guest. The chef was amazing, not a single bad meal...The captain and crew were wonderful and made an effort to engage with the guests. I would most defiantly recommend this trip.
