My week on the Mali Ante was the best vacation ever. Everything was well planned with stunning scenery and excellent customer service from Matilda, Mario and the crew.

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.

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.

Everything was fantastic, from our crew and tour guide to the beautiful islands we got to see. My trip was better than I ever thought it could be and I will definitely recommend Sail Croatia to friends and family.

Everything was so perfectly arranged and if there were ‘hiccups’ there was another plan to be made. We became ‘one big Happy Family’

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!!

We were on a wine cruise which was most enjoyable . Lola was helpful and knowledgable and warm. The staff on the boat were warm and friendly. The boat was comfy and the food very good . 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
The destinations were beautiful, the swim stops every day were so much fun. All of the islands had something exciting to do on them, and if you didn’t want to go out, the boat had a wide range of cosy spots to read a book and relax. The staff were so accommodating and friendly, and the food on board was delicious, something different every day! Thank you so much to all the people who work to make this trip as magical as it is!

Our Tour Manager, Anita, was the best: helpful, informative, lively and just plain fun. We benefited from a small group and bonded so well.

My two siblings, their spouses and I wanted to do a siblings trip, and chose the Wines of Croatia tour, the first of the 2026 season. Anita was our cruise director, and she was what made this trip so fantastic! With only 18 passengers, it was a super fun group. Anita was so helpful and friendly, which also seems to describe most of the people we met in Croatia! She's great at planning and communicating, and a pleasure to be with. The wine events are terrific and so varied! And evenings where you may want to find a restaurant (sometimes the wine events include dinner), Anita sent us recommendations in the ports for meals and things worth seeing. Chef Silvija did a fine job, and we enjoyed "cookie time" at 11am. Glad we all opted for the Blue Lagoon (short visit, but worth the trip!). Dubrovnik was where we ended our trip - amazing place, but if I had a choice, I'd start my trip there as we had culture shock with the huge crowds. Rooms lovely, and bedding comfy. Great captain and crew!
- Celia, 07/05/2026 03:53, Travelled with Family
I had a great time on the sail and cycle. It was my first experience with a trip like this and everything was wonderful. The staff was kind (they even made me hot chocolate while the adults had coffee each morning!) and very detail-oriented. The boat was clean and comfortable, and the food was delicious. Thank you for a great trip!
- Colleen, 06/05/2026 17:13, Travelled with Family
I had an amazing holiday and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Dino, our rep, was incredibly welcoming from the start and made everything feel easy and enjoyable. The food on the boat was outstanding throughout the trip, and the bar staff were super friendly and always brought great humour to the atmosphere. On Captain’s Dinner Night, it was especially nice to see the captain making an effort to personally talk to guests—it really added a special touch to the whole experience. Overall, a fantastic holiday that I’d highly recommend.
- Amber, 05/05/2026 05:26, Travelled Solo
We had the best time on our Sail Croatia cruise, which exceeded our expectations in every way!! From the time we got onboard, we were completely taken care of by our guide, Dino, our servers/bartenders, Cesar & Meriko, and all the crew. Dino did a fantastic job at making sure we knew what to expect each day & even joining us on some of our excursions. Was also wondeful to get to know all of our fellow passengers. Will definitely recommend this experience to family & friends!!
- Barbara, 04/05/2026 17:41, Travelled with Family
This was our first visit to Croatia and we loved every minute of it! We had regular bikes and found the rides challenging at times with the 'rolling hills' but so worth it for the views! Beautiful villages, coastline and crystal clear water! The tour guides, Tonka, Matilda and Elena were superb and the crew on board The Emanuel were very attentive and kind, especially Christina! Everything ran so smoothly, and for the first cruise of the season, the weather was fantastic! Made lots of new friends and had a good laugh with like-minded travellers from across the globe! Croatia definitely stole my heart!
- Pam, 04/05/2026 12:40, Travelled with Family
From our cycling guides to the boat's crew to the food everything couldn't have been better. Our daily cycling had enough flexibility for those who wanted to go from point A to point B quickly could do so and those who wanted to stop and take photos could. The rides were broken up with coffee/rest stops such that there was a relaxed rather than hurry-up feeling I'd experienced on other cycling vacations. I wasn't sure how I felt about cycling in the morning rather than part morning, part afternoon with a lunch stop but I actually preferred it to other schedules. Breakfast had a great variety of hot and cold options and I never expected a 3 course lunch each day. The late April water was too cold for me to do more than a quick jump in and out but having the streets and small villages to ourselves was preferable to later in the season and having to avoid crowds. It was a wonderful experience.

Holiday of a lifetime on a cycling cruise on board the ship Princeza Diana doing the Split return South route. Stunning boat. Very large cabins , spotless en suite , cleaned daily. Fantastic cycling guides Ana and Srjan who looked after us and talked about the history of each island. Took in amazing views, great for photo opportunities. The daily swim stops were incredible , highlight of the trip for me. Beautiful crystal clear water. Swam off the boat. Excellent food and top class hospitality from the whole crew. Good value for money. I am booking again for next year to do a hiking cruise. This is a must do trip for anyone wanting to see Croatia !!!
- Michyla, 04/05/2026 07:36, Travelled with Family
It was a great trip. Food was great, scenery, bikes were comfortable. Weather was fantastic for 6 out of the 7days Confirm your checkout time before you make your travel plans after your cruise. We understood checkout was 10am, therefore booked our bus to Dubrovnik for 1230pm then were told checkout was 8am. Cost us extra money for late rescheduling of our bus times to an earlier time. Our only complaint though
- Sarah, 04/05/2026 06:20, Travelled with Family
Thank you for the 5-star review - we’re so glad you enjoyed the trip, food, scenery, and bikes! Our check-out time (8–9am) is outlined at the top of our FAQs, and it’s possible this may have been confused with our check-in time from 10:30am. We appreciate your feedback and would love to welcome you back onboard in the future!
Both instructors were very helpful, patient and knowledgeable! I learned so much in one week on the water and feel confident in the skills they taught me. Both instructors were every receptive to questions and always checked in to ensure we were understanding the process or the skills they were teaching. Overall very happy:)

We loved our time on board the Mali Ante. The crew and tour guides were very nice, helpful and fun to be around. The food was great. The excursions to the different islands were amazing. The islands are so beautiful. We loved everyone of them. The cycling was perfect for all of us - from beginner to advanced - we all handled it well. This is definitely the best of Croatia.

Great experience, met lovely people, the crew was the best. Niko our rep was always super attentive to all of us, took care of us and made the experience absolutely amazing! The weather didn´t help, so I do recommend doing it sooner in the year, but overall everything was great! Thanks everyone. Hugs from Colombia!
- Salome, 16/10/2025 14:45, Travelled Solo
It's a very nice boat and wonderful crew! The ports were all fabulous. We loved each island that we visited. The food was plentiful and well prepared. We had unseasonably cool weather, but we were still able to enjoy a swim stop or two. We could always find a spot to enjoy cruising. Our cruise manager, Vedron was warm and friendly. He had a great sense of humor and gave wonderful port talks. We especially enjoyed the bike tour in Mljet National Park and the Military tour on Hvar. I would have like another opportunity to do a bike tour on another island possibly.

Sail Croatia helped make the travel process seamless from start to finish. The communication before during and after made the decision to book simple, what to do during the cruise easy and decision to rebook in the future a definite. The staff was visible hardworking and always available to assist in any way need from pouring a drink, crossing a gap or information about local culture or traditions. The cruise director Dino was the best. He not only informative and professional but also fun and engaging. He arranged activities,,helped with bookings,, transport and was there for us to resolve an unexpected inconvenience with a flat tire on a bike excursion . Whike the weather was not perfect for our cruise. Dino and the Captain worked together to avoid the difficult uncontrollable weather and locate ports with better weather and new fun activities seamlessly. This was an unforgettable experience for my daughter and I. Thank you Sail Croatia

The trip was very well organized. We were updated daily on how the day would go and than also sent all the info on Whatsapp. Everything was above and beyond my expectations even though we had to change plans a few times. Our bike guide Marin was amazing. He is so very knowledgeable and made us feel very safe riding in some dangerous locations. It felt like We all respected him right from the moment we heard him speak. Ilona was the back guide and she is a sweet, caring girl who was always so helpful and supportive. She was always making sure everyone was doing ok and she was great to hang with the group and get to know everyone. This was a trip i won’t forget and i will definitely be recommending to friends.

We had an excellent time on our 7 day Dubrovnik to Split bike tour. J and Anna, our bike guides, were kind, friendly, and helpful. Safety was always a priority on our rides. We had a few spicy weather days and J made accommodations to ensure both fun and safety. The servers on board were always cheerful and ready to please! Overall, our group of 4, had a great time and would recommend this tour.

Great size yacht with 38 passengers! We thoroughly enjoyed the swim stops followed by exploring the various ports.

Great time shared w many new friends!

This was a wonderful balance of exercise, educational experiences and relaxation. The guides were wonderful with providing an experience that was enjoyed by all and were able to adapt to the changing weather conditions and keep us informed. Our 14 year old enjoyed the trip too. The ride was harder than what we expected, but we enjoyed the challenge of the hills and there was an option to upgrade to the E-bike.

Travelling solo can be super daunting however, my roommate was also travelling solo and we ended up being so compatible and really great friends! Our tour guide Ola was amazing and the rooms, food and facilities on the boat were so much better than I thought! Overall I had the best time and would definitely do it again!

From start to finish this was a once in a lifetime holiday. The boat Queen Jelena was so beautiful. The crew were polite and helpful and friendly. The food was delicious, the daily routine suited me perfectly . Our Tour Manager Vicko took such good care of us and brought Croatia and its history to life with his informative daily talks on the culture and history of each island we sailed to. He is a great ambassador for Sail Croatia and the country of Croatia. I cannot recommend this cruise enough.it really was perfect.

I had the absolute pleasure of joining the Sail Croatia Hiking Cruise, and it was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience that exceeded every expectation. Our guides, Lola and Natasha, were fantastic. They were extremely knowledgeable about the history and culture of the islands, bringing each stop to life with fascinating stories and insights. On the hikes, they struck the perfect balance of encouragement and patience, never rushing us even when the trails became more challenging. Their energy and expertise made the journey both fun and rewarding. The onboard crew was equally impressive. The chef and waitstaff were top-notch—the meals were consistently delicious, beautifully presented, and thoughtfully prepared. They were also very accommodating with dietary needs, which made the experience even more enjoyable. I was also amazed by the skill of our captain. Watching him expertly navigate the waters and dock in the marinas was truly impressive And gave us complete confidence!!

I have just completed a dream holiday cruising the Dalmatian coast. The crew were very helpful and friendly, especially the amazing Mario! Our chef and sous chef were the best in the Adriatic - thanks for all the extra kilos Ivica and Antonio. Our hiking guides, Lola and Natasa, were efficient, caring and full of information. I was the red faced, sweat drenched hiker at the very back so I was especially grateful for Natasha’s support and patience! I will recommend this trip to everyone.
- Mary, 29/09/2025 19:05, Travelled with Family
Sail Croatia is a perfect blend of sailing and hiking, there is also time on each island to explore the local area. Each day is a new adventure on a different island. The staff is knowledgeable and helpful . During our hikes we learn a little history of the island we were on. The food was amazing! I would highly recommend this tour group, they did a great job.

This is a must do trip,a great way to combine abit of exercise and to explore Croatia. The two guides Marin and Josip were excellent very knowledgeable and nothing was a problem. Everyday they explained the plan for the next day so you always knew what was happening. They also gave recommendations for restaurants and sightseeing at the port stops. So stop thinking about it and book as sometimes life and circumstances can change. Thanks for a great week.

The team who I was travelling were amazing. Couldn’t ask for anyone better. Johnney was our main organiser for the cruise. He made me feel right at home, made sure he has answer to every question. Made sure we had something to do at every point. I had an absolute ball. There was no drama. Reggie our bartender was an absolute legend. Always ready for us to ring the bell and took care of us. The capris was absolutely legend as well. And mato and all other deck staff. Absolute legends and gems. Give them all a raise. They did above and beyond for us. ❤️❤️❤️

I am already missing this beautiful country! Looking forward to returning in the near future! 10/10 for sure!

I had my birthday on day 2 of my sail week and as a solo traveller I was worried no one would care. The second my trip manager (shoutout Nikola, we love you) heard it was my birthday during the week he sorted out a surprise for me, which turned out to be everyone singing happy birthday with a cake with my name on it and a bell ring!! Literally was the best day of my life I felt so special, thanks to both Nikola, our awesome crew, and the amazing group of travellers on my boat!
- Harmony, 24/09/2025 18:08, Travelled Solo
Our guides, Marin and Josip, were outstanding! They provided detailed information about each day's cycling route and the history about each island we visited. They were always available to answer any questions/address any concerns. Both guys were so passionate about their job, and they had such a great sense of humor. In addition, the rest of the crew was fabulous, also. We mainly interacted with Bruno, the bartender, dining room host, and server. He also did an outstanding job taking care of all of us. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone looking for an active vacation!
