A Wonderful Relaxing Experience!

Miranda, Tonka, Ivica x 2, Ilija, Ivan, Miro, Mate. Everyone was so kind and helpful. We had the most interaction with our guides Miranda and Tonka and with our server Miro...they were so wonderful. There was nothing they would not do for us...rolled with the punches...gave us everything we needed...and more! The cabins were a good size, lots of storage and lots of hot water. The itinerary was perfect and we got to see lots of places both on and on the bikes. We had some travel problems but not one issue while on the cruise. Loved it!

An Amazing Vacation

I loved Ivice (our ride leader) and Anita (the sweep/story teller extraordinaire). Ivice made every ride fun and kept an eye on each one of us to make sure we stayed safe! The rides were beautiful and the terrain provided a great workout. When the weather looked iffy, Ivice and the captain came up with an alternate plan that was also fun and rewarding. The e-bikes were terrific; powerful yet easy to use! Anita always brought interesting stories each day and planned some really fun activities for the evening. Since I have been back I have raved about both of these people and recommended the trip to a number of people. I apologize for the delay in submitting this review but I did not return to the states for 34 days. Both of these people are true assets to your company and I can’t say enough good things about each of them! Thank you for a fabulous vacation and please let them know how much we loved being on vacation with them!! With deep affection, Ginnie Daine

Great holiday

Thanks Sail Croatia for a very relaxing, fun and interesting sail around the islands off the coast of Split. We had a great time. The catamarans were Spacious! Ensuites were a happy surprise. Skipper was excellent.

Fabulous!

Anita, our Tour manager was fantastic! Always thinking on all the passengers and making sure we had a great time. The cabins were comfortable, spacious. The food was very good with varieties. I will definitely repeat soon with Sail Croatia.

Sail Croatia Wine cruise

This trip was wonderful from beginning to end. Croatia is a beautiful country and we were able to enjoy it both on land and while cruising the Adriatic. The ship, Queen Jelena, was our comfortable floating hotel. The cabin/bath were a good size ( the bed a wee bit hard) and the ship's common areas offered various areas to sit, lounge, meet friends or just enjoy being on the sea. The food was delicious, the crew was fantastic and incredibly hard working, the wine tastings and cultural experiences were lots of fun. Our trip manager Ivan was absolutely top notch. The small group size made it easy to mingle with the other guests which made the experience even richer (although a list of guest names and name tags for the crew, at least initially, would have been helpful for getting acquainted the first few days. I would highly recommend the Sail Croatia wine cruise.

The Best Cruise Ever!!!

Even before we started our cruise, Sail Croatia’s service was exceptional. They provided us with a complimentary pick up from the airport, and if we had have been going straight home, they would have provided an airport drop off too. This attention to detail continued right through our cruise. We did a Wine Cruise, which I believe is fairly new to the itinerary, but you’d never have know because it was so well planned and took us to so many beautiful wineries to sample an array of local wines. Our ship was Queen Jelena and it was just stunning. We had a cabin on the lower deck and we were absolutely delighted with it. It was spacious and comfortable. We had breakfast and lunch every day on the ship and the quality and quantity was exceptional!!! Pamela, our waitress and bar attendant was very friendly and efficient and couldn’t have done more for us. We were so fortunate to have Ivan as our guide, he was absolutely amazing. He made himself available all day every day. Best trip ever!

Great Trip

We had a great time. Was a bit disappointed with our cabin as it was below deck, but we should have booked way in advance to get an above deck one. The staff were fabulous Ivan and Lucija were lovely and helped everyone on board if they had any issues. Will certainly recommend this trip to friends.

Highly recommended!

We recently returned from an incredible 7-day sailing charter with Sail Croatia, and we can’t recommend it enough! We were greeted by Ante our skipper for the week, planned out our trip and set sail that same afternoon. We spent the next few days exploring the stunning islands off Croatia. Most days we would stop to swim in crystal-clear waters and prepare a luncheon before sailing off to our next port. We enjoyed one day on land in Vis and explored the island on scooters which was another fun adventure. The boat was spacious for the 6 of us and well-equipped, with comfortable cabins and a beautiful deck perfect for day sailing. Our skipper Ante was fantastic and arranged some very fun evenings for us – dinner at a vineyard and another at an inland Konoba featuring traditionally prepared meals. He was also very conscientious about giving us our space while always being close at hand. This sailing charter exceeded our expectations and we would highly recommend!

A warm welcome, clean ship, great itinerary - with time to relax, good food, great crew - stunning scenery. .

- Brenda, 19/10/2024 19:25, Travelled with Friend/s

Great trip!

The tour director, Ivana went over and above- very responsive to people. So kind and knowledgeable! The meals were amazing- better than most restaurants. I liked having the down time in the morning to relax and a good overview of what was available in town made town visits enjoyable. The captains dinner with dancing and singing after was a kick. Thank you for everything!

- Janet, 18/10/2024 08:28, Travelled with Friend/s

Beautiful

The boat was handsome and comfortable. The food was delicious. The crew was responsive and funny and kind. And the islands were a sight to behold.

October Surprise

We avoided the extreme heat and crowds that summer in Croatia usually brings. We were still able to swim in the mornings and enjoy walking around the smaller towns. The food on the Esperanza was quite good. Our tour director Ivana did a good job keeping us informed and on schedule.

Great experience to do a private yacht tour

We had a great time on our private catamaran tour in early October 2024. When I asked family members what their top parts of the trip were, they said "the amazing coves that our captain took us to for private swimming and relaxing," "the fabulous food that our hostess cooked for us every day", and the wine and food we found along the islands. October was a great time to travel around beautiful Croatia without crowds, and while there were some limits in that restaurants or shops were sometimes closed and the weather was less predictable, it ended up being a terrific trip. Every step of the way (including a post-trip excursion) was supported by both the administrative teams and the sailing teams.

Fantastic 7 Days

Our cruise was soooo much fun! Our hosts Ivica and Anita were the best, and I miss them. It was hard to leave. They did a superb job of planning, leading, nurturing, creating a fun and caring atmosphere. We were traveling as a group of 16 who already knew each other. The combination of the wonderful boat with a room of our own, and the energetic excursions to see the countryside made this the best vacation we have ever taken. I'm telling my friends and family that they just HAVE to do it. - Susan

Stylish way to see Croatia

Sailed on the Olimp from Split to Dubrovnik and back. It was great to visit some smaller destinations. We were extremely well looked after by all the crew. A special mention has to go to our guide Ioana who brought her energy every day.

Fabulous

We travelled up the Croatian Coast in Oct. 2024. The trip was simply terrific. The itinerary was first rate, the crew could not do enough to accommodate us, the ship was beautiful, and the food was better than restaurants. Overall we are recommending this type of travel, with Sail Croatia, to all of our friends.

Excellent Week on the Dalmatian Coast

Our skipper Ante was fantastic. He had a recommended route but was happy to modify it once we shared our preferences. Although we were all experienced sailors, it was great to have a captain for local tips both on & off the water. He is very well connected on all the islands and made excellent recommendations to keep us busy on land. Thanks for a fabulous week Ante & Sail Croatia!

Exceeded my adventure touring expectations!

We did the Southern Split Sail and Cycle tour and it was absolutely amazing! I took the classic bike and there was no shortage of great cycling. ....if you are into climbing and zipping down hills and taking in breathtaking scenery along coastlines. I felt a wonderful sense of accomplishment and Ilivica and Anita, our tour guides, made sure the classic bike riders were well-accommodated along with the larger group of e-biker riders. They also provided wonderful recommendations of things to do and places to eat while island hopping. I would highly recommend this cycling tour to any active-minded person wishing to explore the Croatian islands. Great fun!

Great sailing the Dalmatian coast

Super cruise up the beautiful Dalmatian coast. Smaller boat with great attention to detail by the crew and representative who was sooo knowledgeable and helpful. The off board trips were varied so we all had something to do, be-it the fit ones or the indolents ! Enjoyed the breakfast spread and having local courses at lunch time. Ports and local taverns for evening entertainment were spot on, with our host suggesting best local venues. On the rainy day he helped us to order in pizza for the party that erupted :) We are looking at 2025 now !

Memorable holiday

The ship was comfortable and quite luxurious. Staff were very helpful and always pleasant The food was excellent. Congratulations to the chefs The cabin was cleaned daily and towels and bedding changed. Well done to the maid The captain changed the route when necessary to enjoy a safe venue and sheltered areas to swim. Being able to use the drop down platform enabled me to enjoy the daily swim stop. I would not have been able to do the swimming without it. Captain and crew did everything to enhance our experience. The travel guide V was amazing. He was very knowledgeable and friendly with a great sense of humour. All in all a very positive and memorable trip. I woul highly recommend this trip to anyone. Thank you Sail Croatia and staff of Olimp.

Amazing Experience

We travelled on the Katarina from Split return. It was so much fun and the scenery spectacular. If I had to suggest one thing that is a must I would say you need to book on the Katarina. It is a family run yacht and they honestly treat you like family. It was 5 star from start to finish.

Sail Croatia Bike Cruise

On board crew were outstanding, nothing was a problem, they delivered a very thorough and professional service and looked after us very well :) Andre and Lola were amazing and provided us with some great riding routes and shared their local knowledge with us. Our cruising group were also amazing and compatible which made trip even more enjoyable. Boat was comfortable and very clean. Definitely recommend this cruising option to see sites of Croatia.

- Sarah, 14/10/2024 07:32, Travelled with Friend/s

Amazing trip

The Katarina and her crew were highly professional and attended to our every need throughout the week. What a fantastic way to see the Dalmatian islands! Cabins were amply sized and comfortable, ship was sparkling clean. The Explorer cruise offered multiple ways to enjoy each stop and every day began with a leisurely swim in a beautiful place. Highly recommend this trip.

Great Travel Experience

The boat and staff were top notch. I would definitely recommend this trip for those who want to experience the coastal small towns and cities of Croatia. The cruise director Dino was helpful and full of wonderful suggestions for activities and dinners. The food on the boat was excellent as well as the coffee. I had a wonderful week. Thank you Sail Croatia!!!

- Catherine, 14/10/2024 01:02, Travelled with Friend/s

Fantastic cruise

The smaller cruise, 36 people was a great number. The food was amazing, got to try so many local dishes. The staff were friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. The format for each day worked really well. Loved the combination of swimming, relaxing, eating on board and the in the afternoon exploring and being able to eat dinner on land.

Best week ever!!!

Our sail week was probably one of the best weeks of my life. Seriously couldn’t have enjoyed it any more, it was a shame due to weather some of our activities were cancelled but it didn’t matter because we were all surrounded by such an amazing group of people. Loz was the best host! She looked out for us and and had fun with us. It wouldn’t have been the same if she wasn’t there!!! All the staff were amazing and I couldn’t recommend the sail week enough

Croatian Sail with Captain Jack from Split to Dubrovnik

Captain Jack was absolutely amazing! He was very friendly and always offered us suggestions on places to go - he even line up a taxi and wine tour for us and drink reservations. It was a great experience!

- Anonymous, 09/10/2024 06:27, Travelled with Friend/s

So much fun!

The trip was exactly what I was hoping for! Very well organized; Ivan and Lucija looked after every detail, always with smiles and laughs. Croatia is beautiful and the roads we were cycling on were not too busy. We had the perfect amount of down time, time for swimming in the clear blue Adriatic Sea, time for exploring each island and time to get to know the other passengers. Thank you!

- Sandra, 08/10/2024 22:38, Travelled with Friend/s

Croatia bike trip

It was such a great group of people on this trip. We met people from all over the world. The boat and bike trip was fantastic. Ivan and Lucy were great guides. I really can’t say enough about them. Thank you both for educating us on the different cultures we had the privilege of experiencing. We were fortunate to have such a great crew. I will never forget this trip. Thank you all for such great memories.

- Beth, 08/10/2024 17:14, Travelled with Friend/s

Memorable

The crew was fantastic, the people that were guests were amazing, and the planning that went into making it all happen was incredible! We felt that the tour was very thoughtful and it made the most of what the weather and the islands had to offer. We have done the Sail Croatia tour once before seven years previous to this trip. We felt just as good about it and that is why we returned.

- Colette, 08/10/2024 15:55, Travelled with Family

Once in a lifetime trip!

Sail was amazing. Islands did get to feel similar so 7 days got kinda long. 4-5 would be perfect imo. Captain was awesome! Recommend Dramamine for long sail days or windy days.

- Kelly, 08/10/2024 15:18, Travelled with Friend/s

Amazing!

We rented a bareboat charter for one week and sailed across the islands near Split. The boat «Serenity» was very nice, clean, and well-equipped. We enjoyed a lot of Croatian nature and the weather! Although we caught bad weather for a few days, we stayed in the beautiful and calm Stary Grad marina and explored Hvar island. The guys from Sail Croatia are super nice and welcome! The check-in and check-out were quick and smooth. Highly recommend and definitely will come another time :-)

Amazing Hike Trip

Our plan was to do the E-bike trip but it was full so we decided to jump on the hike trip! We definitely made a good decision!! Mate and Karla did such an amazing job accommodating everyone! They both really love their country and love to share it with everyone!! We were able to go off on our own and rent bikes/mopeds if we chose to change things up a bit! We met so many great people from all over the world! We highly recommend sailing with this group!

Our adventure on the Almissa for Suzy’s 60th birthday celebration

This vacation was our second with Sail Croatia. Our group consisted of 12 ladies, aged between 40 - 63 years old. We had a fabulous week on board. The crew were friendly and hard-working. The chefs magically made delicious food for us all, particularly amazing when you consider the limited space available in the kitchen. The guide, Dino was very knowledgable and enthusiastic to share the joys of his country with us. Our fellow shipmates were wonderful, especially five ladies from Australia celebrating a 50th birthday. Croatia is a wonderful country in so many ways. If you’ve not been before, BOOK NOW!

Passenger

The whole operation was so well organized and all of the staff were excellent and accommodating. Curtis who got me started on the booking was super responsive which is rare anymore. Lucia and Ivan were our guides and they were so informative, kind and made it so fun they were exceptional. Lucia the bartender, salon staff was so patient and always had a smile. I can’t say enough about the staff that you employ and experience that was created for all of us. Thank you!

The boat life is amazing. Emma and the Tvrdi crew were exceptional and I met so many amazing people on the boat. I loved the beautiful swim spots and had so much fun jumping around the Croatian Islands.

Amazing!

This adventure was by far the best that we have done to date! The Captain and crew of the Eos, were incredibly professional and made sure that our travel and docking situations were very safe! Our guides, Ivan and Lucija were so much fun and arranged for some wonderful extras on this trip as well as ensuring our safety on the road and off. Lucija shared her knowlwdge about the history and culture of several of the areas we visited. through many stories and facts. A very enjoyable trip!!

Fantastic experience!

My sister and I had a great trip on the Tempera ship. What more can I say about the amazing crew, the 5 star meals, the swim stops and the experiences that were set up by our hard-working, devoted ship activity director, Ioana. The small ship atmosphere is the way to go. I would highly recommend Sail Croatia.

Great Sail Croatia Hiking Trip

We were on the Colombo boat with Bruno and an excellent crew. They were polite, efficient, hard working, friendly and very good at their jobs. Our guides Mate and Karla were fantastic! They were knowledgeable, fun, interesting and dealt with our group exceedingly well. They were motivating and lovely. They really made the trip special. We also had a group of wonderful like minded people taking the tour which made it even more fun. Thank you Sail Croatia for a very memorable holiday. 🤗🙏

- Sue, 07/10/2024 19:18, Travelled with Family

Fantastic Experience!!

Sail Croatia exceeded my expectations for a fun, relaxing, engaging and all around great experience in the Dalmatian islands. The crew was exceptional and attentive, serving up scenic bike tours, a ship with comfortable & clean accommodations, delicious meals, excellent restaurant & wine tasting suggestions, and a lighthearted atmosphere to make new friends with the other guests. The e-bikes were in mint condition and our guide, Marin, made sure the rides were scenic, fun, safe and added historical background for those interested. Our tour coordinator, Mila, was a delight, attentive to our needs and had great local knowledge & contacts. I couldn’t offer a higher recommendation for this trip!!
