Brilliant life changing experience

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!

Fantastic holiday

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.

A great way to spend a week on Croatia's coast!

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.

Sale di Mare, Split to Dubrovnik

The guide, Anita, was excellent. Charming, efficient and most helpful. It was a joy to have such service. I cannot recommend her too much. The crew were very helpful. Food not so good- too much overcooked meat, just one fish dish in 7 days.. Good bar service. Most enjoyable party after the captain',s dinner- lots of dancing ! I did not engage in excursions, as too strenuous for my age.. Others enjoyed them.. Cabin fine and very efficient and pleasant cleaner.

Absolutely Brilliant Holiday!

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!

Enjoyed the Cruise

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

Breaking records!

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.

"life changing "

travelling solo for the first time was daunting to me, however from start to finish sailing on the Emanuel with the skilled and friendly skipper, the chef, who treated us with delicious meals, to Ivan and the other hands on board this experience got better and better. Tour guides Mila and Anita were passionate about their beautiful home country of Croatia and their enthusiasm for our day to day activities made this the perfect trip to include daily Hikes, swims in stunning locations, local knowledge and ensured everyone on board this lovely, comfortable ship had the best time. Of cause the highlight for me were the other 25 passengers I met. All like minded people from around the globe and im sure we will all remain friends. We had so much fun ! I cant wait to organise my next Sail Croatia Cruise as Ive never had such a rewarding and much needed life changing holiday.....Until next time

- DALE, 05/10/2024 04:41, Travelled Solo

Trip of a lifetime!

Bought the explorer sail package and it was absolutely perfect. Wake up, have breakfast buffet on board, the captain would drop us off for a swim stop (1-3 hours), then it’s a 3 course lunch, right as we finish our lunch we have arrived at our new destination. We then had the rest of the day to explore at our own pace or sign up for the additional excursions. It was the perfect balance of scheduled and free time. I can’t wait to go back to Croatia!

- Han, 03/10/2024 15:56, Travelled Solo

Best Part of my Solo Travels

I highly recommend doing Sail Croatia! I boarded not knowing anyone and left with the most incredible group of friends. I loved every minute of the trip and it’s such an easy way to visit many different destinations in Croatia. I booked the Navigator Cruise and was placed on the Tuna ship with the most incredible crew. I want to give a massive shout out to Toni our Tour Manager who made the trip so much better! Toni and the crew always went above and beyond and I am forever grateful for them all.

- Gemma , 03/10/2024 11:45, Travelled Solo

Dubrovnik to Split on Mlini with Lauren

Absolutely one of the best weeks I have had in the duration of my trip! Lozza was an unreal representative, every night she’d have suggestions for where to go to diner and then where to go out afterwards, the group dinners she organised were unreal too, and of course the vibe throughout the whole day. The ship was great, plenty of space in the room given you want to spend most of it on the sun deck, or having Mateo make you a cocktail! Great size ship as well, big enough for everyone to have their own space, but small enough that everyone can still hang out easily. The crews response to poor weather, quickly swapping around what day we attended certain stops to give us more pleasant weather was also great. All in all, a fantastic trip that I 100% would do again!

- Riley, 03/10/2024 05:31, Travelled Solo

Marin is the best!

I had the best time on my sail, Marin was the best trip manager! So knowledgeable and friendly, highly recommend.

Sail Croatia tuna boat 23-30 September 2024

The product was great as we had excellent service from the staff onboard the boat. We were provided with great information about the areas we visited and given great tips on what activities to do

Lauren is my GURL!!

Lauren’s ability to party all the way hard, organise fun day to the maximum and her amazing mind body soul made all of my days completely awesome to me. Beers could’ve been cheaper though.

One of the best weeks of my life!

Had an absolutely fantastic time sailing on the Kapetan Jure ship in late September. Weather was perfect for most of the week, food was delicious, and Marin and the crew went above and beyond to make sure everybody felt safe and included! Cannot recommend highly enough!

- Matt, 30/09/2024 20:29, Travelled Solo

Best Trip!

The people were so amazing ! Our guide Marin really interacted with us and was available whenever you needed help. This was my first solo trip and I couldn't have asked for a better experience :)

- Alexa, 30/09/2024 14:59, Travelled Solo

Fabulous trip!

Had the best time with the most amazing 24 fellow passengers from Australia, U.K., Canada, US, South Africa, and New Zealand, Our guides Mila and Anita were fabulous, professional and knowledgeable-thank you both so much! Ship - Emmanuel. The Captain, crew and chef (captains mum) were wonderful. Always professional, hospitable and safety paramount on board. Thank you all for looking after us like family and showing us your beautiful country and incredible islands! Customer service from Sail Croatia in london were great from start to finish - thank you! Cruise hike has been a fabulous experience and highly recommended. Kindest regards Stacey English

- Stacey, 30/09/2024 09:35, Travelled Solo

Perfection

The Sail Croatia Team and boat crew were superb from beginning to end. Hiking was challenging and rewarding with spectacular views. Meals are home cooked and delicious. The island ports are charming. We had a captain's dinner one night, a pizza night, lots of swimming, etc. It is a n active trip. But what made this cruise so special was making friends with the other travelers. As one person said, " It's the people. It's the people. It's the people! I have traveled a lot and this would rank as one of the best. Do it!

Great time!!!

I had a great time on the Pacific. Toma our manager and crew were the best. Everyone was positive and always happy to help. We had a great time in all the cities, swim stops were all beautiful. Big shout out to the crew, they were great!!!

- Adrian Kotevski, 27/09/2024 07:43, Travelled Solo

Best sail Croatia tour EVER!

First of all, the crew and host were the best. Lauren, Mateo, Frane, Lucinda and Nevan took such great care of us all and we’re always approachable and friendly. The tour itself was a great mix of activities, swimming and relaxation, as well as nights out. When weather and things out of the crews control occurred, the team ensured our safety and provided us with alternative arrangements which was much appreciated. Can not speak more highly of my experience.

- Samantha, 26/09/2024 12:24, Travelled Solo

Tvrdi Dubrovnik to split

All round a great week with an amazing crew, felt extremely safe at all times, food on board was more than fine, bar staff were friendly, boat was always kept clean and our guide Marin was the best tour guide I’ve had across multiple other similar trips, a true legend. All round a great experience.

- Liam, 25/09/2024 20:14, Travelled Solo

The BEST Experience

Sail Croatia is such an incredible experience - sail takes all the planning and organisation out of the mix and allows you to just make amazing friends and memories on the boat while exploring the stunning Croatian Coast. Our crew: Elena, Big Daddy, Irena, Charlie and George were AMAZING and made the experience so much fun. The meals (and the boat’s cocktail jugs) were so good - 10/10 would recommend to any fellow travellers!!!

- Sarah, 25/09/2024 15:18, Travelled Solo

Navigator Cruise

I did the Navigator Cruise and had the time of my life. Seeing Croatia while staying on the water was such an awesome experience and such a unique way to travel. The crew on my boat were by far the highlight and I can’t thank our manager Toni and our waiter Nikola enough for making the experience as amazing as it was.

- Chelsey, 24/09/2024 01:22, Travelled Solo

The best week with Saša

Saša was the best guide for our group! He made a massive effort to get to know everyone on board and made sure everyone felt included. His energy and sense of humour was thoroughly enjoyed by the entire group, I couldn’t imagine doing Sail Croatia with anyone else!

- Caleb, 23/09/2024 23:18, Travelled Solo

Sail Croatia

Dino was an excellent sail leader. He provided great recommendations and helped make navigation super east. I’ve been able to return to Dubrovnik solo with no issues getting there. He made the trip very fun and carefree.

The BEST time !!

Our tour guide Toni absolutely made our trip! We had some of not the best weather but the whole crew always went above and beyond to make it so enjoyable. It was one of the best weeks of my life! I went solo but immediately made friends, it was such a fun week. Could not recommend more :)

- Erin, 23/09/2024 11:40, Travelled Solo

The best experience!

I could not have asked for a better experience with Sail Croatia! The weather itself was not the best, however the crew did everything they could to give us the best week of our lives as that is completely out of their control. Being a female solo traveller it can be nerve wracking going into an environment like this one but the crew were so amazing and made me feel so comfortable the entire week! The breakfast and lunch provided were incredible and were the perfect balance between healthy but delicious. Everything was organised for us and our amazing tour rep Lauren would send us recommendations on beaches, activities, restaurants etc. as well as give us some background on each place we were docking. The rooms itself were small (as expected for a small boat) but everyone was pleasantly surprised with much room we were given, especially in the ensuites. Honestly could not have asked for a better week with Sail Croatia and would recommend it 100%!

- Anonymous, 23/09/2024 11:07, Travelled Solo

I wouldnt say its a life changing experience but one to ticket off the bucket list

With Sail Croatia it is really for those aged between 18-28. Anyone above 30 and you feel a little out of place. These days everyone is traveling in groups of 2-6. Gone of the days of solo travellers from my recent sail where there was only 4 of us solo travellers. It does make it a little harder to meet people but I guess at the end of the day it really is a luck of the draw. It definitely is a good experience. Just prepare to be oboard with a bucket load of aussies haha

Sail Croatia Review

My Sail Croatia trip was great. My trip manager Marin did an incredible job, he was efficient, organised, helpful and caring. He made sure we were all looked after and always had everything sorted so we never had to figure anything out on our own. We were given great suggestions for each place and I felt he personally got to know us all individually which meant a lot. An experience I really appreciated was when I wanted to go home early from a night out and Marin personally went with me and helped me get home, it meant so much to me. The trip itself was great and the team accommodated us with the changing weather well and always had our best interest in mind. Thanks so much for all the hard work!

Hands down the best week of my life!

I can truly say that my week on Sail Croatia aboard the Kapetan Jure, sailing from Split to Dubrovnik, was one of the most magical experiences of my life. Despite a few days of rough weather, Jess, our incredible Sail rep, went above and beyond to ensure we had the best time possible, and she definitely succeeded. Her boundless energy and enthusiasm were infectious, always made sure everyone was having the time of their lives. Jess didn’t just guide the trip, she made it unforgettable. Without her, I wouldn’t have had such an extraordinary experience. The entire crew was fantastic, too! Papi, our captain, knew just how to lift our spirits, and his smile was contagious. The chef’s meals far exceeded my expectations—some of the best food I enjoyed during my entire trip through Europe. Every member of the crew brought so much joy and laughter to our journey. The last night and morning as we said our goodbyes, I couldn’t hold back the tears, I didn’t want it to end! Onto planning the next!

- Lauren, 17/09/2024 23:01, Travelled Solo

Great way to see the Islands of Crotia

The experience of being on the boat, swim spots, and visiting the different islands was great. For those looking for a more adventurous trip might want something different as this has a lot of downtime. Great intro to life on a boat!

- S B, 17/09/2024 13:48, Travelled Solo

Once in a lifetime experience

Had the most incredible week on Sail Croatia! Completely exhausting in the best way - days filled with swimming off the boat, exploring local towns, sunset drinks and then partying until sunrise. Our host Marin was incredible and absolutely made the trip - such a wonderful human with such great energy and always there to help when we needed. Couldn't have imagined a better week if I tried! Would highly recommend.

The Best Week and Perfect for Solo Travelling

I had an incredible week with Sail Croatia and have nothing but positive feedback. I was fortunate to sail with a fantastic group of people, making lasting friendships and feeling welcomed as a solo traveler. Lauren, my representative, was exceptional—highly organized and always able to lift our spirits. The crew was outstanding, the food impressive, and everyone was approachable and eager to help. I thoroughly enjoyed all the activities, including canyoning, biking, and buggies. Overall, the experience was perfect and ranks among the best things I’ve ever done. Thank you, Sail Croatia and Lauren—I highly recommend this experience!

Superb holiday in beautiful location

A comfortable ship crewed by an exceptional team and hosted by lovely knowledgeable hosts. The itinerary with cycling included was and varied and just the right distance and the information provided by our hosts prior to and during the rides was relevant, helpful and interesting. Although we had weather interruptions towards the end of he week, our crew and host did all they could to ensure we still had a fulfilling trip. The food was superb and plentiful prepared by an excellent chef who was a wonderful character and served by a most well mannered and delightful waiter who kept a clean and tidy salon. All crew were friendly, helpful and for whom nothing was any trouble. These are great holidays for meeting and spending time with new people who become friends. This is the second time I have taken a holiday with Sail Croatia and have loved both trips. I would book again in a heart beat if there was an itinerary that gave greater variation from the two trips I have now done.

Highly recommend

I recently had the pleasure of spending an incredible week sailing through the stunning Croatian coastline aboard the Kapetan June, and I can confidently say it was an experience I will cherish forever. From the moment we set sail, the adventure was nothing short of extraordinary. Our week was guided by the amazing rep, Jessica. From the very first day, Jessica's enthusiasm and professionalism made a big difference in our experience. She was always available to answer questions, share local insights, and organise fun activities that brought the group together. Her passion for Croatia and its culture was infectious, and she genuinely cared about ensuring that everyone had the best time possible. Thank you, Jessica, for making this trip so memorable! The crew on Kapetan June were friendly, attentive, and worked tirelessly to ensure our comfort and enjoyment. Their seamless teamwork helped create a relaxed atmosphere that allowed us to fully embrace the beauty of our surroundings.

Great experience! Beautiful places and people! Unfortunately the weather wasnt the best during the week but our skipper Dino made sure we stay safe the entire time, and even with the changes in itinerary still made sure we get to see everything planned. He also showed us how to put the sails up which was very cool. Would definitely recommend!

Best Trip Rver

This trip could not have been so well run and awesome without the support of the trip guide Marin. Marin was so knowledgeable, patient, and understanding with our group and really made the whole trip flow smoothly. This was my first experience with sail Croatia and it was one of the best travel experience of my life between the sightseeing and exploring and nightlife. The crew was also super nice and the chef was excellent, Lunch everyday was so good! All around this was such a fun trip and I highly recommend it for those traveling solo or with a friend!

- Ian, 14/09/2024 13:10, Travelled Solo

Saša is the PERFECT guide

I did Sail Croatia (Split return South route) on Pacific with Saša as a tour guide. Given Saša is a local, he was able to provide the tour group with first hand knowledge and tips regarding the destinations, optional excursions and things to see and do to enrich our sail week. Saša was also able to ensure all of the tour were involved, welcomed and accounted for within daily sail life and group activities. Saša’s sense of humour and understanding of foreign (especially Australian) culture also enabled him to easily relate to and bond with all of the tourists on board. In my opinion, Saša is the PERFECT tour guide for sail Croatia and I could not recommend him more!

- Adam, 13/09/2024 19:24, Travelled Solo

Surpassed every expectation

Sail Croatia was a very pleasant surprise, it really exceeded my expectations in many levels. Staff was extremely attentive and accommodating to every guest’s needs. Food and service were amazing. Ship was very clean. Different options were given every day for optional excursions. Ship schedule was perfect to enjoy every stop’s treasures and nightlife for those who wished. Ioana was our host and was always around to bring groups together and make everyone feel involved. I was traveling solo but never felt alone. We all felt like family by day 2. Fun laughs and memories to cherish forever. I would come back again and again!

Sail Croatia Passenger - 04-11 September

The trip exceeded all expectations. It was a very last minute decision to go on the cruise and was quite hesitant at first. However, shortly after arriving, I soon realized the week was going to be one to remember. Our representative, Miran was nothing short of perfection. He knew every location backwards, recommended the best eating and sightseeing locations, but also managed to get us into some unbelievable partying places too. Our bartender Tomi was an absolute hit! He knows how to get a party started and definitely knows how to make everyone’s nights an absolute wild one. The rest of the crew worked behind the scenes to ensure our safety was their top priority even when we encountered some questionable weather. All-in-all, do not hesitate - book that trip! You may walk away with a sore head, damaged liver and sleep-deprived, but it will be worth it.

Dubrovnik to Split Navigator Tour

Everything was well organised and I didn't have to think or make decisions and after having solo travelled it was a nice change. The guide was really good at her job as well as the crew. They parked the boat is unbelievable spots to have a swim each day, and the boat was always really clean and immaculately looked after. There was a good age range of people on the boat, and all kinds of travellers from couples to people doing it solo.

- Sam, 12/09/2024 20:09, Travelled Solo

Solo Boat

Sail Croatia needs a boat dedicated to solo only travellers. My experience was fun and thoroughly enjoyed it although it was somewhat difficult to socialize with others as they were glued to their friend until roughly day 5 where everyone started to branch out and really connect as a group.

Memorizable Unique Journey in Croatia Coast

Our yacht is well maintained, modern, clean and spacious. Hosts, Crews, and guides are friendly polite and knowledgeable. Meals are delicious. Croatia coast sea is calm. Sleep in the yacht is pleasant. No worries for sea sickness. Every night in different towns, different beaches without packing, unpacking and bus around. A truly must have experience.

I love Jess

Mother Jessica was an incredible tour manager, brought great energy and was always there to answer questions and find us fun stuff to do like drinking games (Rabbits). She went above and beyond the Call of Duty, and didn't at all look like a 12 year old boy. She's also a good person (despite being an only child), an excellent dancer (below average bike rider) and very knowledgeable. If she's not the CEO of the company by the time I return, you will have to answer to me, and my particular set of skills. Big Blue was crewed by a bunch of absolute legends, who were always ready to get the party going, and were always accommodating of our needs (1 million beers at 9am) and wants (food). All in all, would give 6 stars if I could Meow
