The Crew on Eos were professional & fulfilled their roles with friendliness & care. In addition the cycling crew had safety in mind all the time whilst also recognising & catering for different abilities. Jošco was very knowledgeable & informative with local history, nature & the geography of the islands which made our holiday so much more interesting.during the daily cycles. We appreciated the stops for coffee & a swim during the rides. Lovre dealt with a life threatening medical emergency with maturity & calmness whilst also resolving a random conflict with a stranger. Jošco dealt with the logistics of the medical incident with professionalism & care to those involved. Two outstanding employees. I was surprised the cycling crew were not given the cycling ability information we had all submitted - this would have helped them have knowledge prior to our arrival.

We really enjoyed cycling the Croatian Islands and our knowledgeable guides shared many interesting details about the history and culture of Croatia. We did two trips, Split Northern return and the Split South to Dubrovnik. Both were fantastic trips and different in their own way. Tonka and Lola guided our first journey and did a great job of supporting us on our old school pedal bikes. Marin and Karlo were our second set of guides and once again provided excellent support for what was our first e-bike experience. The Sail Croatia ships (Mali Ante and Columbo) were both comfortable and are staffed by an amazing crew. The captain and crew's hard work and dedication is reflected in the pristine condition of the ships. The food for both cruises was delicious and plentiful. We did a Sail Croatia cycle tour in 2018 and enjoyed it so much we came back.! This second adventure exceeded our expectations and left us with some wonderful holiday memories.

Perfect weather! Beautiful boat with excellent staff, nothing was too much trouble.. Excellent food, various diets catered for, and a good range of drinks! But best of all was where we were … from Dubrovnik to Split we anchored in islands of such beauty and grace, so much history and interest and terrific cycle riding with excellent guides - I honestly didn’t want to leave.. Without a doubt I will be returning, with Sail Croatia!!!

This was a 5 star holiday from start to finish. We had the perfect balance of exercise and free time to relax. The boat and cabins were spacious and comfortable. Lucy & Harris served us the most delicious breakfast & 3 course lunches every day. Our lead guide Josko was amazing! He gave us a daily briefing on the route and was highly organised. I felt so safe while biking on the roads, nothing was left to chance. Josko had so much local knowledge and gave us a taste of Croatian history. We learned about this beautiful country while cycling through some of the most panoramic views I've ever seen. One thing I will say was that any request my group had was accomadated immediately. I fell in love with Croatia and it's people. We are already planning our next trip. I highly recommend Sail Croatia, just do it!!! Nessa Darcy

The guides Lucia and Ivan were very professional, knowledgeable, friendly, patient and eager to make this experience unforgettable! The food was delicious and there was plenty for everyone. The bike rides were fun and the scenery was breathtaking. I love the fact that we could swim every day at different spots! Excursion and organized dinners were great to do also! Rooms were comfortable, We had our own bathroom. The staff, especially Andre the Barman, and Randy the sailor were super friendly, helpful and fun! Look no further, book this cruise, you won’t regret it!

We were a large group of 8 couples- our ship Eos was a perfect size to cater for us and other guests. Very comfortable cabins and large social spaces. The food was very good and the staff very attentive. We booked the cycling trip - the bikes were a good quality and we loved exploring the various islands on our bikes each day - all very well led by our excellent tour manager Joške. Highly recommend!

Spent a week on the ship Eos on the cycling cruise. What a fabulous week we had. The scenery on the rides was spectacular. The planning of the daily itinerary was perfect, taking into account several factors such as the heat and safety at all times. Both guides (J and Louvre) were so experienced and knowledgeable. I had an insect sting which led to anaphylaxis and Louvre who is only quite young, acted quickly and calmly, ringing for an ambulance and dealing with the situation admirably. The food on board is excellent and the whole team from chefs to waiters were first class. The e-bikes are the top of the range so don't be nervous about coping with the hills. Once you get the hang of them it's a breeze. Just book it, you won't be sorry.
- Barbara, 13/06/2025 05:56,
The entire Mali Anti crew and guides were wonderful. The boat was clean, comfortable, with plenty of room. The sailing itinerary and cycling were extremely well planned out. The food was excellent and more than what could have been expected. Other guests were quite friendly and fun to be with. We were fortunate to have really good weather for sailing, cycling, and wandering at every stop. Everyone on the crew seemed to go above and beyond to make our experience great. This included the captain (Ivica), the sailors (Ivan and Ilija), the waiter (Mario - he was exceptional), the chef (Ivica - who was truly wonderful) and helper (Antonio). The two guides Miranda and Ana were outstanding throughout our entire trip. (Suggestions - the rooms could have a few more hooks to hang things on and the mirrors in the bathrooms need to be lowered about 6 inches)
- Bob, 13/06/2025 03:24, Travelled with Friend/s
This cycling cruise was the BEST ever. I loved the quaintness of the smaller cruiseship & the crew was wonderful. Our cycle guides Luciya & Ivan P were personable, knowledgeable about Croatia & its history, super fun and safety was always a priority. Our passenger group really bonded from the beginning & I now have new friends around the world I can go visit & keep in touch with. Go For It & take a Sail Croatia Cruise
- Denise, 12/06/2025 22:49, Travelled with Friend/s
The staff on the ship were so great and patient with a group of "old" ladies. The food was fabulous! Because I wake up so early, the chef always offered to get me some tea even if it was 2 hours before the kitchen opening. Our guides, Miranda and Anna were exceptional. On the 2nd day, I realized I wasn't going to be able to climb the hills and Miranda offered to give me her ebike. That isn't something that happens very often.
- Cheryl, 12/06/2025 16:55, Travelled with Friend/s
Sail Croatia made our week of cycling and sailing the Croatian islands amazing. The staff were great and our fellow travellers were all very easy to travel with fun to get to know . They were organized and the food was terrific. I was worried I wasn’t fit enough but I did well on the bikes.
- Files , 11/06/2025 19:06, Travelled with Family
My entire family loved cruising from one beautiful Croatian island to the next and touring around each stop on e-bikes. We got to see much more of each island than if we had hiked or just stayed overnight in each port town/city. The crew & guides are lovely people: professional, friendly & kind. Matilda & Sardan are also skilled bike riders who were patient & accommodated all the varied skill levels. They were knowledgable about each stop, offering wonderful suggestions for dining & site-seeing while on our own to explore. We met wonderful new friends and enjoyed traveling with every single person on our boat. This trip was absolutely AMAZING from start to finish - I can't recommend it enough! My family and I are still stunned at the many incredible views we biked to and the fun of having an active vacation and meeting great people while enjoying wonderful food and wine and exploring so much of beautiful Croatia. We are SO glad we went on this unforgettable adventure!

The staff, crew, tour leaders and guests on this boat were a fantastic bunch. Loved every minute. Had an issue with my room. Not what I was expecting for the price and supplement but that wasn’t going to spoil my trip. Boat was great, bar area very social. George n Danilo were great and George’s food was very good. Danny on the bar was the best barman very efficient and fun. Ivancic and Mario were a superb team, we have cycled with Ivancic before. He will never let you down he’s a very focussed customer driven guide. Very trustworthy. We’d like to return but we have visited most of the islands on your itinerary’s… any chance you could mix it up abit? Thanks again. Great holiday x

Brilliant trip in Croatia with Cruise and great cycling on the island hills and coast and awesome swim stops in crystal clear waters. The guides Ivan and Lucija were top rate with great cycling guidance and history and information on where we were. and we’re really friendly. The food was so tasty from chef Ivana (top class), and Andre was always on form and looking after us with our post ride refreshments. Christiana kept the boat management smooth and friendly, and Captain, and Sailors Randy and Ivan were super helpful. Thanks all for one of our great trips, and to all our new pals we shared it with. Tim and Paula.
- Tim and Paula, 11/06/2025 13:08, Travelled in a Couple
Really loved the guided cycling and everything about the boat the crew and the company of the other guests. The only suggestion is more flexibility around packed lunches to make the most of the day out.
- Jennifer de jong, 11/06/2025 12:26,
The staff on board the Afrodita made our holiday so special. Lucija and Evan our guides were fantastic! They went above and beyond to make our all our time fun and enjoyable! They were professional and yet authentically friendly. We were so lucky. The crew, magnificent! Andre was a doll and helpful and attentive and our chef ….like Wow! All crew was friendly kind and worked hard to make us comfortable and safe. I loved the itinerary and our daily cycle time and challenges. I wish i had an upper cabin but it wasn’t available as i booked later than others. The e bikes were great. Thank you to all

We had wonderful guides Luciua and Ivan who both made our bike and sail trip really enjoyable. Their energy was motivating and both made us feel very comfortable with our rides. Luciuas sharing of local history and information was very helpful.
- Wes , 11/06/2025 08:55,
Our guides Ivan and Lucia made this bicycle tour great. They were attentive to our interests and needs and always positive and helpful. Their knowledge of Croatia was excellent and their passion for their country was infectious. The E-bikes were in excellent condition. Using electric bikes made this trip fun and relatively easy. I have been on many similar bike tours and this one ranks in the top for me. I would recommend this to anyone looking for an enjoyable, active and fun vacation.

1) Omit overnight on day 7 of trip. End the trip after lunch on day 6. This eliminates unreasonably early check out on day 7 and also makes it easier for a guest to check in to their hotel in DBV without having to wait until 12:00 or 13:00 check in time. 2) Onshore excursion options need clear explanation in pretrip communication. Example: I was not told that a scenic bus tour and a walking tour of DBV was available, so I booked them in advance with Viator. If I had known I would have gone on the onshore excursion instead. 3) Include the use of one pannier on the bike. 4) Include written instructions for charging the bike battery and operating the ebike. 5) There were three outlets in the cabin. That is insufficient to charge two bike batteries plus two phones plus hearing aids, etc. A simple multi-plug adapter can fix this issue. 6) Guide must not make promises he doesn't keep. Example: A military tour was promised on one island (Vis?) but was never delivered.
- Tom, 11/06/2025 07:21, Travelled in a Couple
Hi Tom, thank you for your 3-star review. We also appreciate your detailed positive feedback and we’re so pleased you enjoyed the cruise and would recommend us. Guests are always welcome to disembark once the boat docks at the final destination, should they prefer to end their trip earlier. Your comments about the pannier, charging instructions, and multi-plug adapters are appreciated and have been passed to our Operations Team for review. While our guides provide information at the daily briefing based on the cycle schedule, some activities, such as onshore excursions or optional tours, may be subject to change or availability. We regret that the expectations around the military tour and Dubrovnik excursion options were not met - we appreciate your comments. Thank you again for your review.
From a captain and crew and our cycling guides, they went out of their way to make our trip and everyone else’s exceptional. I would recommend our trip to all of our friends and family and hopefully one day we can join you again for another trip.. You could also improve our experience with better coffee in the morning. Cheers

The whole e-bike sailing trip was a hit from the moment we arrived. The welcome from the crew, to the bar & kitchen crew and most importantly our guides for our ride each day. The food was exceptional and beautifully presented! Our guides were so helpful and their communication about our rides each day were clear and conscientious of making sure everyone understood were we would stop for a break or photo opportunity. Safety was key! It was a treat to have some challenging times on the bikes as we got to see some incredible views and scenery.. If you enjoy a bit of fitness with history and fun, I highly recommend this trip! So great full to all the staff and we also had amazing weather and our group was the best!
- Loretta, 11/06/2025 06:02, Travelled in a Couple
This tour is a great blend of cruising and riding. The guides, Miranda and Ana, were attentive to a fault, doing their best to keep everyone happy., as were the ship's crew. Guides and crew themselves seemed delighted to be there! The ship, the Mali Ante, was beautiful, clean, and well-run. The riding was well-planned, taking us along relatively easy routes in the countryside, and giving us a taste of many towns and villages, The meals were sumptuous and lovingly prepared. Someone considering this tour should know: - the rides are short, on average, so if they want more focus on cycling, this may not be the tour for them - the saddles for the e-bikes are hard and flat, so it might be an idea to bring a gel cover for comfort - the crew does smoke, and the smoke seems to come into some of the rooms at times, through the ventilation system. - the meals were very meat-heavy Altogether, with these caveats, this was a beautiful tour, thoroughly enjoyed by all.

our trip was wonderful from start to finish . crew could not have been nicer and more helpful. Special thanks to Mario for his help in the dining room. The food and the chef were marvelous. Ana and Miranda were super helpful with our daily bike rides. Best cruise we have been on and we were sad to see it end. would definitely do this cruise again. if we could… This was a hard-working crew with great attention to detail and worked well together.. They all take pride in their work. A delight to be aboard the Mali Ante!!! A once in a lifetime experience and memory!!

Five stars to all the crew and guides in our tour. The friendliness and efficiency to make sure we were all taken care of in every need was amazing! The food on the boat was lovely. Learned a new favorite beer( Radler). First time e-bike and I was very glad. All help rendered as needed , from giving daily overview of day to end if day path. Captains dinner was amazing! I loved this format of sailing and biking as we saw sights that you would never see in a traditional bus tour. Thanks to all who made this possible!

We had a wonderful week on the Princeza Diana with our guides Calum and Josip. As guides, their styles were very different, but the combination complimented our group nicely. This vacation was the best way for us to enjoy all Croatia has to offer…. So much beautiful scenery, flowers, and history. Cruising along on our e-bikes was a sensory over-load in the best possible way. The worse thing about the week was that it had to end.

Having a positive group makes the holiday so good. The Sail Croatia team were super. Srdan and Matilda were excellent representatives. Nothing was too much trouble. The crew on board were brilliant.

Wonderful Guides: josip and Calem, Princess Diana Boat and awesome Group. We loved the rides each day. Views were amazing. There were some days with a bit of elevation which made the bike climbs extra sweet with unexpected views.. Guides were great at prepping us for the day and helping those that needed assistance. The boat was clean and spacious. The best part were the new friends we made from around the world. Loved our week..

As a frequent traveler this has been my favorite vacation. Traveling the beautiful islands of Croatia by e-bike has been the most amazing experience. The crew was amazing! They were very attentive to guests, whether it be special diets, ice for my knees, (thanks Lutcia) & Even making an extra swim stop, Using e-bikes made riding accessible to some of us who have physical challenges. The rides were the most picturesque & breathtaking. Our tour manager, Josko was absolutely the best tour manager we have ever had! He and Lovre kept us safe, explained everything in detail so expectations were known. He showed us subtle ways to enhance our experience and improve our riding skills & taught and showed us amazing Croatian culture and history. Josko and Lovre were true gentleman in every sense of the word & very attentive to us and the details! I lost a bike key and a guest dropped a large diamond ring on a dock! Josko got both back! Nowhere else in the world! Highly recommend this bike tour.
- Kathy, 09/06/2025 12:59,
The biking leaders Ana and Miranda were just fabulous, not only leading us on beautiful rides, but ensuring everyone was together and safe. We were also looked forward to Ana's daily stories. The entire crew cheerfully made sure we were well fed and taken care of. The only negative I have is that while none of our group smoked, cigarette smoke entered our cabins through vents. That should be addressed.

Sail Croatia was hands down one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life. From the moment I stepped onto the boat, I felt welcomed, safe, and genuinely cared for. The staff were absolutely incredible- so loving, kind, and attentive. They went above and beyond to make sure everyone was comfortable, happy, and well taken care of. You could tell they really cared about our experience, and that made all the difference. The boat itself was immaculate. Everything was kept so neat and tidy throughout the entire week, and it truly felt like a floating home. But what made the trip even more special were the people. I met some of the most amazing souls – people who started as strangers and became true friends, and even family. There's a unique bond that forms when you’re sailing, sharing meals, and cycling long miles. I can’t recommend Sail Croatia enough. Thank you, Sail Croatia, for the memories, the friendships, and the magic. I’ll treasure this forever!

We loved the small ship style of travel. This allowed us to really experience the smaller, more intimate areas, towns, and ports of Croatia. We loved the variation from day to day, both with respect to the rides, and the areas themselves. Our guides Tonka and Lola were absolutely wonderful. They were so personable, caring, enthusiastic, energetic, and knowledgeable. Everyday was pure joy with both of them. We really loved the freedom to explore the different towns in the afternoons and evenings and have dinners off the ship.
- Jay, 09/06/2025 09:43,
The small sized ships allowed access to smaller, quieter, and less busy ports allowing access to the real charm of Croatia. We loved the varied destinations, ports, and rides. No two days were the same. It also allowed us to really interact with the other guests and get to know them well. Our guide’s knowledge of the area and its history was excellent and very informative.

After doing a bare boat charter around Turkey years ago, we wanted to do same in Croatia, however as keen cyclist was saw the perfect blend of boating and cycling in what Sail Croatia offered … and without all the hassle of a bare boat.
