Rooms spacious, the excursions were well planned and brilliant. Our host Anita was friendly and very helpful. The sailing team were friendly and helpful. The food could have been better, the portions however were generous. Swim stops lovely. Would have liked the hot tub warmer when it was available to use. The team were very organised and gave us all the info on stops, timings and what to do at each port. It is a fantastic boat the captain and crew were exceptional!

I had a wonderful time. The cruise was amazing...beautiful food, friendly staff and excellent hike guidance by Marte and Andro. I can't say enough to thank everyone for looking after me so well.

- Sue Ashmore, 27/10/2024 07:58, Travelled Solo

The tour was a wonderful way to see some of Croatia, relax, and enjoy some outdoor and cultural activities. Ioana was a fantastic tour guide and the crew on the boat provided excellent service. The history tour in Split was very interesting, the wine tasting in Korcula was lovely, bike riding in Mljet and Makarska (private rental) was a great way to see the area, and going up the cable car in Dubrovnik provided amazing views of the city and coastline. I enjoyed the swim stops and the option to use the on-board paddle board and kayak, and the food onboard was delicious and plentiful. There was a good mix of down-time and activities/walking in the towns to keep things fun and interesting. We weren't able to do all of the excursions due to weather conditions, but it wasn't a big issue (and they were often quite pricey). I enjoyed seeing a number of different locations, while returning to the same room every night and getting to know the many wonderful people on the tour.

- Aimee, 26/10/2024 22:10, Travelled Solo

Our cruise was very relaxing with the right balance of activities and interaction with other guests. We really loved the swim stops each day and the meals were of premium quality and presentation. There was plenty of space on the boat, Esperanza, to feel like you could have some privacy and then interact when we wanted to. We would recommend the cruise and we had a great time., the crew was very helpful and friendly.

- Fiona, 26/10/2024 02:01, Travelled in a Couple

The sailors took pride in their ship, always on top of their responsibilities. Our room was comfortable as advertised, staff friendly. Anita our hostess engaged with all her passengers, always eager to help. Our trip was delightful, swimming spots and beautiful ports to dock in. Wonderful country to explore with delicious food. Very fortunate to have had the loveliest travellers to make our holiday exceptional.

Room was very spacious and showers so good. Loved all the tours and adventures . Also loved how intimate it was with the small number and all lovely people . Thank you for a very memorable cruise with you all and we wish you lots of happines we will definitely recommend the cruise to our friends.

We had the best time on the Olimp especially having a great tour guide, Ionna. The only thing I would have liked changed was to have coffee and tea readily available. Thanks for a wonderful holiday and very memorable.

- Anne, 22/10/2024 06:29, Travelled in a Couple

We went on the 7 day wine cruise, where we got to experience different Croatian wines and a different island every day. The food was fantastic and every meal was delicious. The staff were friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the daily swim stops and the whole cultural experience. The rooms were spacious and we had our own ensuite. We both thoroughly enjoyed our cruise and would definitely recommend this as an enjoyable, relaxing and culturally holiday experience.

- Catherine , 22/10/2024 05:56, Travelled in a Couple

The Elegance cruise aboard the Olimp was such a delight! The holiday was effortless and the onboard food an absolute standout. Our tour guide was very entertaining, helpful and always available. The swim stops were a highlight for me. The cabin was roomy and the Olimp is beautifully maintained by a committed crew. I’d go again in a heartbeat!

- Maureen, 22/10/2024 04:30, Travelled in a Couple

My husband and myself signed up for this cruise with 5 other friends and we had a fantastic time. The Olimp is very clean, well maintained and comfortable. The crew was awesome- Ioana was an organized and fun cruise director who kept us informed and provided great recs for each stop of our cruise. This was our first time on a cruise and we found that the size of the ship and number of guests was just perfect. We enjoyed getting to know other guests on the cruise. Sail Croatia did an excellent job of communicating before the cruise as well.

- Michelle, 22/10/2024 02:01, Travelled in a Couple

Great ship, fab guide, lovely food and terrific guests! And the wine wasn’t bad either!

- Dinah, 21/10/2024 19:23, Travelled in a Couple

The Olimp yacht was beyond amazing! And our tour director Ioana was the best we have ever had! She was amazing and catered to all our needs above and beyond!

- valerie scherer , 21/10/2024 14:10, Travelled in a Couple

- Anonymous, 19/10/2024 16:58, Travelled in a Couple

Excellent manager Ana, cycle guide Dora and crew. They couldn't have been more helpful. Itinerary promptly and smoothly rearranged if necessary according to circumstances eg weather. Definitely recommend this trip with Sail Croatia.

- sylvia, 18/10/2024 09:52, Travelled in a Couple

I had researched quite a few small ship cruise lines before booking, and I'm so glad we went with Sail Croatia! We sailed the Explorer cruise Split to Dubrovnik on The Salve di Mare, which was the most beautiful boat, with the rooms being generously sized and very well appointed (we were in the lower deck and even had a double vanity in our ensuite!) The Captain and his crew were reliable and friendly. Our cruise director Vicko was nothing short of amazing, being generous with his time and also his knowledge and assistance. We really enjoyed the daily Destination speech learning so much about the history of each please we were heading to. We did have to make a couple of itinerary changes due to port issue and weather, but it did not detract from any of our trip, if anything it meant we got to be first people of the day into the Blue caves! The food far exceeded our expectations, and as is with Croatia, always very generous servings! I would not hesitate to recommend Sail Croatia!

- Lee, 17/10/2024 05:19, Travelled in a Couple

This was a trip we had anticipated and looked forward to for almost a year. Traveling with lifetime friends, this was the last week of a 3 week Croatian experience. The ship Esperanza was lovely and so well maintained. Our cabins were adequate and spacious as ships go. The beds were great!!! Our crew and cruise director Ivana could not have been more helpful. The daily briefings ,and restaurant recommendations prior to making port were so helpful and much appreciated . It was everything we hoped and more.

- Mary, 16/10/2024 12:39, Travelled in a Couple

I had a great experience on Sail Croatia. Nothing but praise for our cruise director Klara and the rest of the team. Will be going home and recommending it to all my friends.

- Susan, 16/10/2024 04:09, Travelled in a Couple

We had a fabulous time meeting people from several countries. The Princess Diana was clean and comfortable and the guides and crew were friendly, knowledgeable and very welcoming. The daily schedule allowed for cycling, exploring the towns and either relaxing or swimming. There was plenty to eat and the food was well prepared and quite good overall. We learned about Croatian history, customs and culture from our extremely knowledgeable guides who made us feel that we were welcome guests in their country. The e-bike s were good quality and easy to get used to. I would recommend this tour to anyone at a reasonable level of fitness. Some rides were strenuous, but well worth the effort. Bravo Sail Croatia, well done!!

- Laurel, 15/10/2024 19:42, Travelled in a Couple

This holiday was a total knock out and far exceeded my expectations. Our two guides, Marin and Mila, were fantastic. They are both passionate about: cycling, Croatian history and maintaining the authentic side of Croatia. Both had safety top of their list - even adapting rides for me as I am afraid of heights. The food was great and as much as I enjoyed the cycling - which was my main reason for booking this holiday - I also enjoyed all of the walks and talks on Croatian history. Without doubt I'll be back!

- Vicky, 15/10/2024 19:14, Travelled Solo

The other passengers were lovely and kind. The staff were very professional and helpful. Ivana was a brilliant Tour Manager too.

- Julie Bozicevic , 15/10/2024 15:36, Travelled Solo

The Olimp was a beautiful ship with a warm and professional crew. The other passengers also helped make the experience fun and memorable. Top the vacation off with the stunningly beautiful country of Croatia and the friendly people and you have a magical combination. We enjoyed seeing ports that the large cruise ships do not get to stop. We loved that there were only 36 passengers on the Olimp, and we got to know all of our shipmates. Airport transports were seamless! Accommodations, meals, and service were all superb. We felt safe and well cared for, so that all our focus was on enjoying the time on the ship and in the various ports. We would definitely book again with Sail Croatia.

- Mary, 15/10/2024 10:59, Travelled in a Couple

The wine tours were fabulous, staff and service and the cruise director, Karla, were all wonderful. The meals were delicious! The excursions were great, except for the wine dinner in Korcula ( too crowded, and food quality was poor). Areas needing improvement: fly swatters for each cabin( (we had a fly in our room the entire time). A better coffee machine ( coffee was terrible),, and two keys per room are needed.

- Diane, 15/10/2024 08:28, Travelled in a Couple

Good itinerary Well maintained boat with good captain and crew Great bikes, rides and support crew.

- Lesley, 14/10/2024 21:29, Travelled in a Couple

Enjoyed the cycling and swimming as well as the company of the other clients. We developed a real comraderie along with our two amazing guides and crew. There was much fun and laughter despite a very professional approach by the crew. Both guides had excellent knowledge of the islands and Croatia, making for some very interesting talks and discussions. Sailing gave an interesting and varied overview of the country. Advise bringing sand shoes for stony beaches

- Maeve, 14/10/2024 19:30, Travelled in a Couple

This trip was a perfect combination of days relaxing on the boat and afternoons sightseeing on islands. Great food and wonderful excursions. Spacious and modern rooms/facilities on the Katarina. Incredibly attentive, polite and knowledgeable staff. Absolutely wonderful trip!

This was our first cruise and we weren't sure what to expect. It was so fun and relaxing! We met lots of fun people and enjoyed each stop. Our tour manager, Dino, could not have been better. He had lots of fun energy and went out of his way to help and answer questions or give suggestions. The staff in the bar/dining room were also fantastic. And, the boat was beautiful and comfortable. We will recommend this cruise to friends.

- Robin, 14/10/2024 18:33, Travelled in a Couple

Once on board the very comfortable boat, we were well looked after by delightful guides, good chefs, bar staff and boat crew. Good quality e-bikes, excellent guiding around five beautiful Croatian islands, the crew having to adjust the itinerary due to the weather conditions. The other passengers were similar ages to us, loved cycling and the exploring of new places so there were plenty of common interests.

- Jeni, 14/10/2024 18:07, Travelled in a Couple

From day one, it was evident that both Anita and Evica have a passion for sharing their country and its history with everyone. Their attention to safety and the well being of everyone was ever present on each bike ride. . They were so patient and kind, making sure the varying degrees of ridership were comfortable with each ride. A very detailed pre-briefing of every ride was given the day before and via WhatsApp. I highly recommend both Anita and Evica!!!

- Lesley, 14/10/2024 06:42, Travelled in a Couple

Small group, great atmosphere , very good easy to ride well balanced e bikes. Stunning scenery, just the right amount of challenge and above all 2 fantastic guides. I do not cycle but am fit and love being outside and exploring and the e bikes made it so easy . The terrain is hilly but 35 to 50k per day was no problem even for someone who never rides a bike. All the harbours we moored in on the Split to Split southern route were wonderful. So much to explore . We travelled second week October and had great weather, Sea warm enough for daily swims. Totally recommend .

- Kate, 14/10/2024 06:21, Travelled in a Couple

Had a wonderful time on Esperanza. The crew were spectacular., especially the tour director Karolina. She was very personable and accommodating. The ship was very comfortable and the food top notch! I highly recommend there services.

- Kelle, 14/10/2024 00:55, Travelled in a Couple

Our guide Karolina was professional, well organized, friendly, always smiling, helpful. One could not ask for more! The food was very tasty and prepared with care. The entire crew was just great. Only compliments to all. We enjoyed our vacation with Sail Croatia and would recommend it to anyboby. With thanks Barbara and Piotr Boni

- Barbara, 11/10/2024 12:34, Travelled in a Couple

Our guides were outstanding! They made me feel safe, comfortable, and heard. All questions were answered thoughtfully, and they projected a sense of fun and adventure. This was my first “group “ travel experience and I was pleasantly surprised each day at how well Marija and Josko managed 30 diverse guests! 5 stars for sure.

- Christy, 11/10/2024 09:54, Travelled in a Couple

I booked the Hiking Split Return South route for my 50th birthday and it exceeded all of my expectations. My husband and I were on the Columbo and our guides Mate and Karla were awesome. They were knowledgeable and fun and you could tell that they were passionate about Croatia and hiking. The food was great, the swim stops were fun and I haven't laughed that much on a trip ever. We had a great group of like minded people from around the world who made every day fun. From the captain to the crew and especially our guides Mate and Karla, we all felt very well taken care of onboard and off. I would highly recommend Sail Croatia and will definitely book another trip with them in the future. Lindsie & Curtis (Vancouver, BC, Canada)

- Lindsie, 10/10/2024 17:10, Travelled in a Couple

The crew and Lozza made great changes to accommodate the weather conditions. It was such a great week to end the Sail Croatia season! Loz was awesome... couldn't have picked a better person to handle us all... if I could do sail again, I'd want her there along for the ride.

- Anonymous, 10/10/2024 09:50, Travelled Solo

Our navigator and crew made this trip very special! We were also paired up with travelers of similar interests, which was also very nice. I did not know what to expect as I have never been on a cruise, so all I can say is this trip exceeded my expectations! We are not the "cruise" type and with a small group on Katarina, this did not feel like a cruise at all. The little things, like our rooms cleaned, beds made, fresh towels every day, were also lovely and unexpected. I have some dietary restrictions and every request was met quickly and with no problem whatsoever. We are swimmers, and loved that there was at least a one hour swim stop every day. Swimming in the Adriatic sea/Dalmation islands was like a dream come true! All of the island stops were fabulous and we loved that we got a little history from our navigator before departing on each island. I will most definitely recommend Sail Croatia Elegance cruises to all of my friends and family!

- Catherine, 09/10/2024 21:07, Travelled in a Couple

The Sail Croatia hike week gave us exactly what we were hoping for and more. A week sailing between beautiful islands (on Columbo), interesting hikes each day, like-minded people on the trip (some of which will become life-long friends), good food and local tips for each island, regular swim stops and a whole lot of fun and laughter. Our tour guides Mate and Karla provided expert guidance, fun and constant enthusiasm. Their passion for their country was truly infectious. We have fallen in love with Croatia. Thank you, Jill and Rich (UK)

- Jill, 09/10/2024 20:29, Travelled in a Couple

Well organised itinerary which provided great range of optional excursions, opportunity to swim in a range of spots off the boat & explore the islands of Croatia. Tour guide (Kkara) was fun & crew of Salve de Mare were friendly & efficient. A great bunch of fellow travellers helped create a great cruise !

- Julie, 09/10/2024 18:01, Travelled in a Couple

We thoroughly enjoyed our Sail Croatia experience! A fabulous way to explore some of Croatia's beautiful islands in a relaxed atmosphere with the opportunity to make new friends while soaking up the sun and cooling off in the clear blue water with swim stops along the way. The crew were warm, helpful and the food was outstanding. We will definitely be recommending Sail Croatia to friends and family, we may even sign up for another cruise in the near future!

- Kathryn , 09/10/2024 17:53, Travelled in a Couple

An amazing week sailing around Croatia with an incredible crew on board the Tempera. Ioana our guide was incredible - always going the extra mile to ensure we had everything we needed and were happy! Even with some bad weather that meant we had to slightly alter our route, we still had a fantastic time as she had excellent suggestions for things for us to do. An all round amazing week in Croatia!

- Francesca, 09/10/2024 11:45, Travelled in a Couple

Sail Croatia - Katarina Explorer cruise was an amazing way to visit the beautiful coast of Croatia. The crew was friendly, attentive and so professional. I would recommend the cruise to anyone looking for wonderful experience.

- Samantha, 09/10/2024 10:46, Travelled in a Couple

We enjoyed exploring the small islands of Croatia, each has its own character and personality. The boat had every comfort, cosy bed, proper bathroom with plenty of hot water. Breakfast had a great choice, lunch was delicious. Lots of space on top deck for sunbathing or relaxing. Very friendly staff and tour manager, who organised cycle hire in Mijet. Free time in the evenings was appreciated, to explore at your own pace.

The tour guide Karla and hike guide Mate were really amazing. We feel so lucky to have had them with us.. Really knowledgeable and friendly people who helped bring a group of strangers together to be friends by the end of the week. Thanks too to Bruno and the captain and crew on Columbo for taking such good care of us. The hikes were beautiful. Sometimes they were challenging but not so difficult that we were not able to enjoy the scenery and get to know each other on the way. Our favourite hike was in Makarska, where the views were stunning. Our weather was mixed with some unexpected heavy rain at times but the itinerary was adapted well to suit sailing conditions. The boat was full of like-minded travellers from all over the world and we had a really fun-filled week with the best people.

- Anonymous, 08/10/2024 08:33, Travelled in a Couple

The boat was lovely (bigger than another one I went on with another company), and the crew were excellent. The guides Ivan and Lucija, made it fun and interesting, and went above and beyond to ensure we had good things to do even when we to change the itinerary due to weather. The kitchen and boat crew were also fun, professional and helpful.

- Kathryn, 08/10/2024 06:51, Travelled in a Couple

The sailing and bike riding experience onboard Aphrodite was so enjoyable. By combining exercise and rest together I felt like I had a real holiday. The boat crew were all very friendly and made my trip very pleasant. The food was tasty and presented with flair. My room was comfortable and cosy. The bike manager was professional and always provided us with terrific routes through the islands. Our Tour guide was knowledgeable and kept our interest at all times.

- Kerrie, 07/10/2024 19:54, Travelled in a Couple

Mate & Karla created an atmosphere that was joyous, fascinating, physically challenging (what we'd hoped for), historically relevant, whilst oozing their love of their gorgeous homeland, nature, fun facts, & always with a smile & belly laughs! They were the reason 30 people came together as strangers & left wanting (& hoping) to stay in touch with them all!! Very organised, very safe, & inspirational. The crew were also a huge part of making this trip as perfect as it was as well. Thank you to all who played a part. We sure love Mate & Karla!!

- Ellen, 07/10/2024 16:57, Travelled in a Couple

My husband and I were a little hesitant about booking a cruise since we are not typically "cruise people" but we happy we did! The boat was the perfect size. It was great waking up every morning to a view of the Adraiac sea. The crew was amazing and were all very friendly and welcoming. The lunch on the boat was delicious everyday. My only complaint is that I wish the coffee was left out a bit longer after breakfast.
