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!

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!

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.

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!

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.

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!

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!

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!

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!

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.

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.

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.
- Connor, 11/09/2024 12:41, Travelled Solo
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.

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

I thought the trip was awesome the perfect balance between partying and site seeing/activities. The crew were always helpful with anything we needed. As a solo traveler this was an awesome way to meet new people

The staff themselves, and their willingness to go above and beyond to make the experience great for everyone. They were extremely friendly, organised and helpful, to the point of providing personalised maps at each of the destinations so that we were easily able to get around, and offered suggestions if we didn't know what we wanted to do. Towards the end of the trip I unfortunately came down with the Flu. A staff member regularly checked up on me while on the boat, and when it proved to be a stubborn Flu, they accompanied me to the Hospital to get help. On the final day, they even helped me walk my bags to my next hostel, as I was not well enough to carry them myself and as a solo traveller, did not have anyone to help me. I truly cannot recommend Sail Croatia more. I had a brilliant time, made new friends and had crazy fun experiences. All that alone would have me raving about them, but the biggest this was they truly cared about each of their passengers, and made sure I was safe.

Literally a once in a lifetime experience, because I don’t think my body could take a round 2. It was a great fucking time though. The people were amazing, not only the travellers but also the crew of Penelopa (George - what a chef, crepes every day, Mario - a legend & Isabel - Big Daddy’s wild daughter)! The swim stops would lead to floating to a nearby beach and getting free hospitality shots. The buggy’s got my passenger princess close to a heart attack while the canyoning almost killed me. The parties, late nights & little sleep but cool clubs & good company. It was heaven. I’ll always cherish the memories. It’s a 10/10 from me, would recommend (heavily)!

EVERYTHING!!! Day 1, speech 1 Dino advised us to trust his recommendations and he would guide us to have the best trip possible - he absolutely did not disappoint. His logistical planning, leadership and approachability is second to none. Every night was planned impeccably which no doubt helped us make memories for a lifetime with our group. Even to the point of creating a street party in Makarska with 4h notice!! Dino was born for this 💛 Nikolina was the most wonderful and caring hostess, and doing the job of 2 people at once no less!! For her first season, she was a total pro! The chef’s meals were absolutely delicious and I always felt well catered for especially as a vegetarian. The rest of the crew also helped to always ensure common areas were kept to a high standard, and made our boat feel totally like home for the 7 nights. Last but not least, our group was very well age matched, so inclusive, approachable and humble. We became family by the end of the week. ❤️

Most tourists to the Dalmatian islands most likely never make it past the coast and beaches. Yes, that area is stunning on most every island. But… seeing the interior of the island is equally as beautiful. Stone farmhouses nestled among vineyards and olive trees. Churches, Everyday life for the inhabitants. I am so glad I had the opportunity. But I won’t kid you… while it is beautiful, the hills are challenging! I was not prepared for how hard a 20 mile ride would be! Make sure you reserve an e-bike if you are the least bit uncertain. I would do this tour again. Absolutely. The crew was wonderful, the guides caring and amazing, the food on ship was great, and the ports we visited were everything and more than I expected. Totally worth it and I was sad when it was time to disembark the ship. : (

There’s a good mix of activities and partying, and having a choice of what you’d like to do whilst you’re there. Saša was a really great guide and leader of the boat, and considered everyone’s needs and did what he could to make everyone happy. The other crew members like Lucy, Dimi, Kiki and Ivan were cool too, and partied with us on shore. Go for the more expensive boat for an older crowd, and the cheaper for a younger crowd. Get ready for a big week.

Came onto sail Croatia with high expectations of a great time - due to countless friends recommendations, and even my expectations were exceeded from the amazing time and atmosphere created by the crew on Mala Kate and especially Elena who always had priorities for us and to make sure we had the best time possible, it was so nice to switch off and rely on her fully and waking up to a message full of recommendations, she was so easy to communicate with and always kind and respectful. Bruno was an amazing waiter/bartender and always knew how to make us laugh and have a good time. The boat was always so clean thanks to Roko and smooth sailing thanks to Bo Bo. My one worry with coming onto sail was I was unsure of food choices due to my extensive allergy list but I was always well accommodated and they always took good care of me - big thanks to Davor for that!!! Overall, it has to be one of the best weeks of my life and I’m so thankful for the experience and friends I made!

The whole Tempura team was amazing. The food, the service, the excursions… everything was top notch! As a solo traveler amongst all friends and couples, I felt like I was taken in as part of a big family! I still had my alone time when I needed it, but most of the time you could find me on the deck with the rest of the group, laughing hysterically or just taking in the breathtaking views. I would 100% recommend Sail Croatia, and I could see myself returning for another trip in the future!

For the price that you pay which is quite exorbitant I don’t think this experience lives up to the cost or the hype. While the crew and the staff on board as well as the guide are absolutely lovely and the service was great the boat is old, creaky and smelly.. The air-conditioning barely worked and people complained non-stop about the Aircon not working. There were no fans even on deck which are desperately needed to combat the unbearable European summer heat. Unfortunately it did not live up to the expectations and certainly not to the reviews I’ve seen on site. The boats need full renovations and need to be fully updated in order for them to be able to get a higher rating.
- Nikki , 25/08/2024 14:46, Travelled Solo
Thank you for your review - we’re pleased to hear that you found our crew, staff, and service to be excellent. However, we regret to learn that the boat did not meet your expectations. We maintain a high rating of 4.7/5 stars for this departure, and our internal reports did not indicate any air-conditioning issues raised by yourself or any other guest. We encourage guests to raise any concerns with our Onboard Rep so we can address them swiftly. For transparency, we provide detailed imagery and information about each of our Explorer ships on our website to help guests make an informed decision about their accommodation. We appreciate your input and comments as we continue to enhance our services.
