seeing all the beautiful sights of Croatia was amazing and the ebike made it all possible. I would have loved a little book/hand out of our bike paths and information about the culture in each area-It's not easy to remember everything the guides tell us. The room did smell a bit which was unpleasant and I wish we could've opened the windows. I wish we had more leisure time to explore the little towns. I loved the free coffee drinks on board and the staff was great. Loved having this experience staying on a beautiful boat- thank you!

Hi there, thank you for your 4-star review. We appreciate your feedback and are pleased to hear that you had an amazing time seeing Croatia's beautiful sights, the E-Bikes are certainly a great addition to a Cycle Cruise! Thank you for the feedback. At times if there is bad weather, smell can occur in the bathroom emitting from the shower drains. This is due to the movement of the ships on the water whereby this movement opens up airflow at the back of the pipe and into the bathroom. This is addressed in the Welcome Speech by the Sail Croatia Representative on board. Thank you for the kind words for the staff on-board, we will be sure to pass this on, and we hope to welcome you on-board again in the future.
We loved the boat and the travel guides on our trip to Croatia. Our itinerary was well planned, and our cycling guides were experienced and have been doing this for many years. The kitchen catered to our dietary requirements, vegetarian and vegan. Thankyou Sam Croatia team

I should have ridden on an e-bike instead, even though I ride a bike regularly I was not prepared for the challenge of riding the climbs. The guides were extremely supportive and patient with me on this trip. The islands were great to explore on a bike ride, as the scenery was amazing and varied from day to day.

We had a great time cycling the Dalmatian Islands with the Mali Ante crew. Our guides Mila and Miranda provided great historical information about the towns and were very fun to ride with. The onboard crew was wonderful as well, taking care of our rooms and providing great food. We even got them to dance with us on the night of Captain's dinner. The only recommendation I have is to consider an eBike. I'm a cyclist at home, but was happy to have an eBike to get over those beautiful (but steep!) hills.

The guides and staff were friendly and knowledgeable. The bikes were comfortable and ran smoothly.The only complaint was the lunch which at times the protein was over cooked.

This was my 3rd trip with sail Croatia. Split-Dubrovnik. It did not disappoint Travelled with family & friend. After some minor issue at booking with cabin allocation. Swiftly sorted. Despite the bad weather for early part of the week we had a great time. The itinary was changed slightly due to weather conditions & guest safety. Marin & Ivan did their very best to ensure alternative sight seeing trips were available to accommodate this. The cycling was challenging enough for those on hybrid bikes. Captain & crew really friendly. Boat was clean. Food plentiful. If there was anything I would change.. please maybe longer circular cycling routes rather than there & back.. we were a larger group of 30 but safety was second to none. A massive thank you to Marin & Ivan for their friendliness, and showing us some stunning places. And providing us with great laughs. WE made some lovely friends and great memories. Would highly recommend sail Croatia 🙂

26 friends and family sailed on the Emanuel from Split to Dubrovnik. Nina from Sail Croatia was a great guide the food on the Emanuel was delicious and each port was somehow nicer than the last. I only wish was spending more time on the bikes exploring the islands. The schedule keep us fairly tied to the A To B trip with little time for side trips. Also, much of the biking day was spent waiting for slower riders which would have made my trip even better…..

Great trek leaders - great boat (Afrodita) - great crew - great guests! We were hoping there would be other families with older teens to be with, but there were no age barriers here: the other guests welcomed our kids and they responded with maturity! The cycling was challenging without e-bikes in the extreme heat but everyone was accommodating and encouraging. We swam off the boat a couple of times and found beaches every day which was brilliant. The ship was great- but shade on the sun deck would have made it more useful, as it was too hot to go up there at all. I was surprised that there was no cleaning of bathrooms all week, and no change of towels offered, but the food was abundant and amazing. A drink with main meals (even water!) would have been appreciated. Overall, a wonderful week.

Free tea and coffee available on the boat outside meal times. More hanging space for wet clothing and more pegs.

Thank you for your review. Tea & Coffee availability is something we are currently looking into for future seasons. Thank you for your suggestion of more hanging space and pegs, this will be passed on to the Operations Team for potential future improvements. Thank you.
Enjoyed the beautiful Islands and environment. Stunning part of the world and it was so special to have this opportunity. Great crew and a wonderful bunch of friendly people. The bikes were fabulous and well cared for. We were well fed 2 meals per day. Beds were comfortable and it was nice to have an en suite.

The bikes were a good quality and well maintained and the e-bikes were perfect for the kids. The guides were very experienced, cheerful and always helpful. Cabins were hot in the middle of the heat wave and the ports noisy, but regardless we had a great family adventure!

The cruise was great . The guides, ana,Miranda and Hugo really looked after us . The food was really good and the crew were really helpful. The only thing that let it down was the company themselves, sail Croatia. We had an issue on the boat and they could have handled it better and supported their guides. Especially for a company with so much experience. Shame really. Otherwise a fantastic cruise.
