Staff on the ship was excellent. But what really made the trip special was Tonja and Eliana. Your lucky to have them as your guides.

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!

Great time away, food was not to my liking and very bland especially the soups. Mash potato was like slop on plate meat stew very tough. Coffee not nice all agreed bought my own and it went missing. Toilet paper should be filled properly at all times as only little was put in and we kept running out along with others. No ware to sit when weather was so bad as only 4 seats by bar all tables were played straight after breakfast. Breakfast: nothing left one morning at 7.45 when breakfast should have been until 8.30. Plates taken when we were still eating at breakfast meats and cheese removed so fast not time to eat, most days they had breakfast cleared down before 8.15 making many of us feeling rushed and not able to eat what we wanted for our breakfast. The crew were very nice . Would have liked the bikes we paid for to have been available when we were not on ride so we could explore. Felt the whole week centred around them not us.

Nice number of guests. Team leaders/tour mangers absolutely terrific, as well all the crew. Food amazing. Accomodation was very comfortable. Such a memorable trip. A great combination of traveling on a midsize boat, max. 32 guests, we had 17 which made the excursion so much more personable with guests and crew. Weather in first of May was decent. 20ish degrees.
- Stanley Androsoff , 11/05/2026 06:02, Travelled with Family
Staff excellent, particularly Elena and Tonker. Food was always good and bikes well maintained. Will recommend to anyone wanting to bike ride Europe.

Everything great exept for a lack of vegetarian dishes on the menus
- lionel, 07/05/2026 10:59, Travelled with Family
Our Tour Manager, Anita, was the best: helpful, informative, lively and just plain fun. We benefited from a small group and bonded so well.
- Margi, 07/05/2026 09:07, Travelled with Family
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
The awesome staff and great food. The ship was beautiful and immaculate.
- Dan, 06/05/2026 07:16, Travelled with Family
Our family had a wonderful time on the cruise getting to explore a beautiful country with wonderful people. The crew was excellent in every way. The boat was clean, comfortable, the food and drinks were plentiful, and Dino was a great guide the entire week! I definitely recommend Sail Croatia to anyone looking for a wonderful week long cruise!
- Cesar, 05/05/2026 16:04, 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
We were advised after we sailed about extra charges above those we paid for the trip, 50.00 per person port taxes and harbor charges. Why were surprised by these because sail Croatia didn’t tell us. Not very nice. To be paid in cash before final disembarking.
- Michael, 04/05/2026 16:54, Travelled with Family
Thank you for your 5-star review - we’re so pleased to hear that you and your group rated your experience so highly. We’re sorry to hear that the local payment came as a surprise. We do make every effort to ensure this cost is clearly communicated to all guests prior to booking. The local payment for Cycle Croatia cruises - currently €50 per person - is outlined in several places, including your online account, payment receipt, FAQs, and pre-departure information. This fee covers port charges and tourist taxes incurred throughout the week and is not a hidden cost. We understand that travel details can sometimes be overlooked, and we appreciate your feedback as it helps us continue improving how we communicate important information to our guests.
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!

Both of the instructors were really good. We spent more time with Kristian and he explained everything great and it was really fun learning from him.

- Pero, 04/05/2026 11:51, Travelled Solo
The ship was lovely and cycle guides did a great job looking after us on the rides. ship staff also did a great job with friendliness and efficiency. The ship itself was impressive lovely cabins and great showers. Only critique cabins could be warmer on the cooler says. Heater controls made no difference.
- Michael, 04/05/2026 10:49, 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.
- Laurie, 04/05/2026 10:26, Travelled with Family
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
Excellent trip! The bike tour guides Andro and Josko were amazing and the boat crew did a phenomenal job! Would definitely recommend!!
- Courtney, 04/05/2026 07:25, 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:)

While we had questionable weather at times, the staff absolutely brought the energy and passion. From Nickola working tirelessly to ensure we had fun day plans to King Reggy behind the bar and the whole crew looking after us, we all felt safe, fed and excited each day. Definitely would do again.
- Mitchell, 21/10/2025 09:39, Travelled Solo
If you can find fault with this holiday you have spent the week looking for it, and even then I doubt you will find it. Everything was perfect from breakfast to evening drinks before bed, each trip out was well organised to get the most out of the experience and with morning swims stops everyday each day just flowed perfectly. We had a small kitchen on board that did breakfast and lunch. Well they called it lunch, but each day was a set menu of three courses and the food that came out of that small kitchen was just amazing and all made fresh on board, very talented people in that kitchen first class. Would I recommend Sail Croatia for a holiday, yes without a doubt, Beautiful country, beautiful people, beautiful ship
- Gary, 21/10/2025 06:37, Travelled with Family
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
Dino, our tour manager was lovely and very responsive to our questions and requests. He often responded within a minute and was already taking action on our request. He was very knowledgeable about each location and gave us a daily briefing. The ship was beautiful and the staff friendly. Due to rough seas the itinerary had to be changed and we did not visit Vis, but instead went to Omiš, which was a lovely town with stunning landscapes and some exciting excursion options! They handled the itinerary changes gracefully and seamlessly. I've deducted one star as there were a few quirks along the way that could have made the stay more pleasant: The ship has AC, but only when the AC is turned on as a whole, so for the first couple nights and the last night our room was a nearly unbearable 77-80°F at night, there were a couple days where housekeeping came into the room, but the room was only partially done, like 1 out of 3 beds done. All in all it was an enjoyable experience though!
- Lori, 14/10/2025 13:03, Travelled with Family
Traveling with Sail Croatia was an experience that was more than " just a cruise" where you are one of hundreds or thousands on a massive ship. It wasn't perfect, but I look back on the friendships we made, the cozy feel of the ship and I'm left with special memories of our time on the Adriatic. When we arrived in Split and were faced with two massive cruise ships at port, I was so thankful for the choice we made. Dino, our cruise director, was a very relatable, friendly guy who responded quickly with our questions. The crew were all very nice! I rated it 4/5 mainly because of a few issues such as ventilation in the cabin that made it uncomfortable for a few days. Otherwise, it would be 5/5!
- Suzanne , 14/10/2025 12:34, Travelled with Family
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

Number one, the staff was excellent! From the time we entered onto the ship to the time we got off they were always there when we needed them. If someone also had food issues, they were also accommodating to the persons needs. The director, Ivan, also personalized, and went above and beyond some of the things to help us and make our experience very memorable! The staff also in charge of swimming, cooking, serving, cleaning, bartending were all very friendly. Second, the ship was in great condition and kept clean. Third, the two tours that were included were great with Ivan. Fourth, the Captain’s dinner was great and the band was excellent! And, the people that were on the ship with us ended up to be the best and we all had so much fun together! A feeling of family! Ivan, the director was superb!! Captain Ivan was also superb!
