Friendly and helpful staff, pleasant surroundings and clean, comfortable rooms. Meals on board were really good, and Ivan, our tour operator was very personable and knowledgeable. Wines were interesting and places visited were also worth while. We especially enjoyed the swim each day.

Sail Croatia did everything possible to make our 7 day wine cruise an unforgettable experience! The boat, Queen Jelena, was beautiful as well as comfortable. And the crew was exceptional from the captain to the cooks to the hospitality staff. The tour director, Ivan, was fabulous! He was well-organized, thorough, kind and had a great sense of humor. He kept us well-informed about the day's plans and previewed up-coming excursions. We enjoyed the daily swims, and the on-shore activities were worthwhile, well selected, and we had plenty of time to enjoy them. The food was exceptional: delicious, superbly presented and served promptly. We don't see how the cooks managed to get such great meals out of a small galley. Everything about the cruise was excellent! We were lucky with the weather and our congenial group of shipmates. We recommend Sail Croatia without reservation, and the wine cruise adds an interesting dimension to the tour if you are interested in wine.

We had a wonderful time thanks to the staff and the beautiful people of Croatia! Ivan was a fantastic host and went out of his way to ensure that every guest was taken care of. Pamela, our server/bartender, was kind, courteous, and friendly. Our cabin was spacious, comfortable, clean, and bath was larger than expected. The other guests onboard were exceptionally friendly and a joy to be around. The experiences at various wine venues were so memorable. We are still enjoying reminiscing and chuckling about our trip. Do not hesitate to book an Elegance Wine Tour, it was so much fun!

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.

- Dulce, 27/10/2024 04:07, Travelled with Family

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.

- Michael, 24/10/2024 13:59, Travelled Solo

This cruise was full of fun, relaxation and some of the best natural sights I've ever seen. Anita's knowledge of Croatia and where would be best to go was invaluable. We will be back!

Excellent Ship with wonderful crew. Chef prepared meals were great. Our tour manager Ioana was fantastic. Destinations were wonderful made even more memorable by the other passenger where everyone got along famously.

- James , 24/10/2024 00:53, Travelled in a Couple

Great attention paid to detail. The excursions were fun and not difficult or crowded. Food was excellent.

- Gary, 23/10/2024 19:58, Travelled in a Couple

We were a group of friends (8) who joined Sail Croatia for the Dubrovnik to Split 7 day cruise. The cabins were comfortable, the bathroom more spacious than the normal cruise ship. With only 40 people onboard I was concerned that we would be in each others pockets. There is more than enough space onboard to ensure you can read a book quietly if you want. The staff on our cruise (Salve de Mere) were supurb, from the maid throufg to the Captain, we were all in excellent hands. I loved the fact that we docked in small ports each night so we could enjoy local restaurants and bars. Each morning we stopped for a swim...as it was late season a few of us decamped to the jaquizzi where we had pre lunch cocktails...great fun! Each afternoon we were given options of excursions we could take, from walking and exploring, to bike rides and wine tasting. I would probably give the Buggies a miss as you travel in convoy at about 20kms per hour...very boring and a waste of money..

- Simon, 23/10/2024 11:31, Travelled with Friend/s

What an adventure! Sailing on the Olimp was fantastic. First, the cruise leader, Ioana. Wow. Dynamic, organized, fun. Not sure the cruise would have been the same without her leading the way. The ship itself was beautiful and well maintained. The staff was helpful to make sure all our needs were met. Beautiful destinations and fun history tours. Even though we were traveling with friends, the new friends we made helped make things even better. Would be happy to go again.

- Gary, 22/10/2024 15:13, Travelled with Friend/s

Wonderful ship and crew were very accommodating.

- Anonymous, 22/10/2024 08:27, Travelled with Friend/s

The ship, Olmp, was immaculate and the crew always helpful. With only 36 passengers the experience was very personal and we were fortunate to have a very interesting and homogenous group . The meals served were all delicious but the service was a little too efficient for me. I prefer a slower pace while eating. The only meal that I would avoid n the future is the so called "BBQ". Definitely not up t the chefs usually high standards. The Sail Croatia cruise is a great way to sample all that Croatia has to offer. Our cruise director, Ioana, added another dimension to our touring experience. We all had a wonderful and educational experience on the cruise

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

Everything just came together beautifully. Fantastic weather, a diverse interesting group of friendly really nice passengers, a warm friendly crew and fantastic host Anita. On board food was great. The timing of events, swim stops and activities each day was well, thought out and just worked. Anita did a really good job of keeping everyone updated throughout the day both personally and via a group chat including extra things to do, places to eat etc. To top it off, the boat, Salve de Mare, was fantastic, with lots of space, very clean and comfortable with everything operating as it should. Would definitely travel with Sail Croatia again!

- Brian, 22/10/2024 07:36, Travelled with Family

Fun. Nice ship. Great crew. Good weather. Great tour director.

- Jon, 22/10/2024 03:13, Travelled in a Couple

Our group of six experienced an amazing week of beautiful scenery and wonderful people. We had 26 other tourists from six countries, and we all enjoyed each other's company. The tour guides -- Miranda and Tonka -- made it all happen. From the start, they encouraged mingling. They challenged us with the rides, and they engaged us with their stories. Super memorable trip. Pomalo!

- David, 22/10/2024 01:24, Travelled with Friend/s

Great ship, great guide, great crew, great experiences, and great companions, made for a remarkable journey and wonderful vacation.

- Philip, 22/10/2024 01:16, Travelled in a Couple

So well organised and great service from all the team throughout the trip.

- John, 21/10/2024 17:02,

I have done a lot of travelling. This is one of the best trips I have ever been on. The boat, staff, food and staff were excellent. The key to the trip was Ivan and Lucy as group leaders. They did an excellent job and worked together very well. It was obvious that they had spent considerable time the previous evening organizing events for the following day. They were always very upbeat and made a point of socializing with us during. Ivan was a great bike leader. He ensured our rides were as safe as possible. He was very helpful when people had trouble with their bikes. He was a good first aider when there were minor injuries (the accidents were not his fault). He organized a special trip at the request of one of our group. Lucy did a very good job with presentations during our various rides. She also ensured that everything was done safely. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone with intermediate biking skills, as long as the group leaders were Ivan and Lucy.

- Phil , 19/10/2024 08:24, Travelled in a Couple

The location, skipper and food were all superb. Would recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing way to see the amazing Dalmatian coast and islands. We did it with an 8 & 11 year old and it was a really fun family thing to do.

- David, 19/10/2024 00:22,

We had a wonderful time on our Elegance Cruise. We've only been on one cruise before and that was a huge ship; it was so impersonal. With Sail Croatia, there were just 18 cabins, it was so much more intimate and we made new friends from around the world. The captain, crew and our cruise director Ioana couldn't have been nicer or more accommodating. The Croatian coastline and islands are spectacular; we saw architecture and history we never knew existed; and the people were a joy. We highly recommend you do the same if you get the chance.

- Anonymous, 18/10/2024 17:57, Travelled in a Couple

We sailed the Dalmatian islands off the coast of Croatia on board the luxury cruise yacht Olimp. The accommodation was exceptional comfortable and roomy. Captain Jure and the crew of the Olimp were outstanding, providing an awesome experience, while cruise representative Vedran took great care of us explaining (each day) historic/cultural significance of each port we stopped at and leading us in some of our on-shore tours. Even though our cruse was in late September / early October we still managed to stop periodically in quiet coves to swim and enjoy the waters of the Adriatic.

- Donald, 18/10/2024 15:09, Travelled with Family

Ivice and Anita did a fantastic job planning our cycling activities, telling us about the various towns and their highlights, and providing considerable assistance with restaurants, additional experiences, and answering innumerable questions. They were SO customer focused and really went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time. The ship's crew was similarly helpful - from Captain Ivan's thoughtful route updates to keep us in good weather to Paola's friendly service in the galley/bar and Olga's attention to detail in keeping our cabins clean and comfy. The meals were tasty and nutritious, and the e-bikes were new and very effective at assisting us up the sometimes steep inclines. This was a great way to see the Croatian islands - highly recommend!

- Bill, 17/10/2024 16:05, Travelled with Friend/s

My first experience on a yacht/small cruise ship. All of the crew aboard the Olimp were fabulous in their efforts to make our cruise enjoyable. It was obvious that all of the crew take pride in their work and they were all excellent in executing their duties. Our Sail Croatia host, Ioanna, was also fabulous. She kept us informed and fostered camaraderie amongst all of the guests. She was exceptional at that! Ioanna also planned some excellent walking tours of Croatia which included visits to historic sites, national parks, family farms, beaches, jeep tours and restaurants. The food on the yacht was great! Great chef! Great Captain! Thank you for the several swim stops at beautiful, remote locations. That was something that one rarely gets to do. All in all, a great vacation and I highly recommend a cruise on the Olimp!

- William, 17/10/2024 11:02, Travelled in a Couple

A well organised week with a lovely boat and great crew. Our cabin was clean and tidy and the food was plentiful. Rides were challenging and well organised. We spent time with friends and met plenty of new ones. A great bunch of people onboard.

- Mike, 17/10/2024 07:46, Travelled in a Couple

i certainly would recommend sail Croatia , we sailed on the Olimp the staff and tour guide were great, nothing was problem

- jamie, 16/10/2024 22:51, Travelled in a Couple

Not only was the location - scenery, natural beauty, food etc. - memorable, the way the biking tours were planned and the exceptional guides - Ivica and Anita - were a major part of this amazing trip. I can’t say enough about the friendliness and the warmth both demonstrated. It’s line all of us made new friends. They were an integral part of the fun we had. I wouldn’t mind doing the trip over again but only with these 2.

- Arvind, 16/10/2024 21:01, Travelled with Friend/s

I can’t say enough about our experience. Our holiday was a perfect blend of great sailing, great scenery, amazing culture and a wonderful boat. From the very beginning Sail Croatia was great to deal with. They were very responsive and accommodating as we were booking our trip. Even as experienced sailors, we decided to hire a skipper and we are very happy that we did. His local knowledge and connections really added to our trip. Ante was a fantastic skipper and a great guy. We would hire him again in a heartbeat. Ask for him if you are getting a skipper.

- David, 16/10/2024 14:15,

Marin and Mila were great guides on all of the rides. The food was very good, and the captain and crew did a great job. I would very much look forward to going on a future bike and sail cruise.

- Brendan, 15/10/2024 19:15, Travelled with Family

Location, location, location...Croatia is absolutely beautiful! The boat and the crew was fantastic as well. The passengers (36 of us) got along extremely well and we made some amazing friends. I would highly recommend this location, company, boat, and crew.

- Michael, 15/10/2024 11:06, Travelled in a Couple

Everything from the airport pick up to the Hotel and the cruise was very professional and well organised. The crew on the boat and our guide Klara looked after all our needs whilst on board and during the trips ashore. Our food was well presented, cooked to perfection and the wine tastings were excellent. This was one of our best trips for a long time and will thoroughly recommend Sail Croatia.

- Nick Lauezzari, 15/10/2024 10:34, Travelled in a Couple

A great way to see the little towns on the islands of Croatia. We were very pleased with the yacht. Our skipper sim was awesome and made us feel comfortable. Very easy going and knew what she was doing.

- kadus, 15/10/2024 06:51, Travelled with Friend/s

The ports, wine venues, food, crew and trip director were all great. The ship is clean and roomy, but be sure not to accept Cabin 12 if offered. It has a constant noise coming from a pipe that takes up space in the closet.

- darryl, 15/10/2024 06:28,

Every aspect of the cruise was great: the ship, the itinerary and of course the staff, especially Ioana, the representative from Sail Croatia. Lots of great memories and pictures!

The people

- Steve, 15/10/2024 02:14, Travelled with Friend/s

We researched well and glad we did - it was well worth it. We selected the Katarina with Sail Croatia. The booking process was simple and efficient. We had the assurance the vessel we selected would be the one we sailed on. To our pleasant surprise, the vessel and crew exceeded our high expectations. Overall, between bareboat charter and cruise ships, this is the right size boat, right size crew and right size of guests. That we could tie up every night and free to come and go without water ferry made it extra special - like yachting. Very pleased and we highly recommend Katarina and her crew with Sail Croatia.

Beautiful boat, excellent staff, good food and fun excursions. Tour manager (Dino) and boat staff were amazing. Boat accommodations were better than many five star hotels

All the people on board, especially Ivica and Anita made this trip a memorable one. There was nothing that they could not find solutions for. Ivica and Anita you are the best

- Kristján, 14/10/2024 08:19, Travelled in a Couple

Cycling is a fantastic way to see the beautiful scenery of the Croatian coast and islands. E-bikes make it easy and being based on a boat means you don't have to re-pack every night. The crew were fantastic; cheerful and helpful at all times. Our fellow passengers were also great - I guess self selecting for an activity based trip. Our cabin was small but clean and comfortable - with a bit of engine noise in the bottom of the boat. Food on the boat was plentiful and fresh, if a little basic. We loved the trip and are trying to decide which route to do next.

- Richard, 14/10/2024 08:06, Travelled with Friend/s

Ivica and Anita are what makes Croatia great! Warm Welcomes, Safe and on schedule planning. Informed and endearing. You will enjoy the rides but we think you will love the people even more. Excellent communication throughout the trip, including when plans needed to pivot for our best enjoyment. Interested in feedback I can only imagine each year trips with them will get better and better. They are pros.

- Chris, 14/10/2024 07:49, Travelled in a Couple

The staff, the food, the itineraries, the tours and the beautiful and spacious rooms made this cruise a number 10 in our book. We needed for nothing. It was very organized, clean and the food and service was excellent. Would highly recommend it as a must do. Thanks to the staff members. We appreciate all your hard work. Paul and Lorraine

From the very first contact and throughout the planning and sailing Private Tour, the Sail Croatia Team were professional, knowledgeable and always available to answer questions quickly and accurately. Our Skipper (Ivan) and hostess (Nika) were outstanding!!! They both made the voyage exciting, inclusive of all opportunities to sail the islands and were very considerate. We will be back again next year in 2025. Thank you Sail Croatia! Keith/Mary

- Keith, 14/10/2024 05:31, Travelled in a Couple

Had a great week long trip on the Tempera. The crew was great and very friendly. The breakfast and lunch was delicious and was able to try some new food! The squid was my personal favourite. The cabins were clean and had lots of space for your clothes. The daily swim stop was an incredible experience, i miss the sea already! Drinks on board were yummy. Using Sail Croatia was a great way to get around and see as much of Croatia as you can! The group made on whatsapp was a great way to stay in contact with everyone. We learned a new Croatian word everyday which was nice to learn the proper pronunciation to use while exploring. Would recommend people to get an esim or get a good travel plan as the internet in the boat wasn’t the best. Not that you’re using it lots but nice to have if you’re talking to family back home! Would definitely recommend and personally use Sail Croatia again as it is as a very fun week!

The whole setup was just what I hoped Accommodation was comfortable/worked well The crew could not have been more helpful Both the Team leaders were clearly very experienced. They were delightful people to deal with always a watchful eye on our safety, and being flexible and adaptable I have been very impressed with Sail Croatia and I’ll be back (Different route next time !)

Put Sail-Cycle Croatia on your must do bucket list. One of the best holidays imagineable if you enjoy stunning aquamarine water, breathtaking island scenery and great food & wine... with some exercise (ebiking) adventures thrown in. The Sail Croatia crew were friendly & attentive to everyones needs. Our 2 tour guides (Dora & Lucia) were simply brilliant - professional, informative and humourous. Do yourself a favour - book a Sail-Cycle Croatia tour for some unforgetable experiences.🌞✨️❤️ Dugald & Julie

V our guide was great, suggesting restaurants and other things about the Croatia people. I would choose to do this trip again. It was a vacation of a lifetime! Most people were not happy that coffee couldn't be have after 9:00 am.

I am totally impressed with Sail Croatia's attention to detail in all aspects of our adventure. All staff members respond quickly and are always there to help. On the boat, our guide, Karolina, was knowledgeable and very personable. All the crew was pleasant and enjoyable. The ports were great and gave us a sense of Croatia's past history. This is such a great company we brought along another couple as this was our second sailing with Sail Croatia. Kudos!
