Croatia Traveller Reviews - On The Go Tours

Here are some reviews from our past travellers to Croatia. For more details on each tour, simply click on the tour image.

Overall we enjoyed the trip but have a few comments as to why we didn't rate it higher.

1. The land based (bus) part of the trip was stated to have maximum of 25 people and there were 53! Every single seat on the bus was taken and it was way too big a group for the tour guides. Why was this allowed?

2. The travel time between the land based destinations was too long. I should have read how long the bus rides would be (one was 5 hours) and had I know would not have booked that 3-day land based part of the tour.

3. The Adriatic Princess ship that we stayed on for the 7 day Croatia cruise was very dated. We saw other ships of a similar size that had much newer accommodations (state rooms as well as shared areas on boat.)

That being said the trip manager on the ship (Elite travel) was excellent as was the rest of the crew. They were all very helpful.

We enjoyed seeing all the sites on the tour and liked having 5 nights to get dinner on our own while in port.

4. The ship did not allow us to charge our excursions or drink tab on a credit card which was very inconvenient as we had to go into town and find a bank. That was not mentioned in the itinerary. We knew that tips needed to be in cash but nothing else was mentioned.”

Tour guide Nebo, was excellent. Informative, patient, helpful. Best guide I’ve had. Driver Sasha was also excellent. I did not like that the guide or driver did not stay in same hotel as us. I did not like that some people stayed in a different hotel. Added extra time wasted in having to go to two hotels. A couple of dinners would have been nice. When we did have one group dinner, the others in the superior hotel group did not join us. Not good. Wasting time (1.5) hours at border control annoyed me, although that is out of your control. We missed an item on the itinerary because we arrived late at hotel. Went to bed without dinner that night. I did a tour with On the Go several years ago and it was great. After this tour I would probably not go with your tour company again. Again, I was very happy with the guide and driver. ”

The cruise did not meet our expectations. The boat Spalato has seen better days. The cabin below deck smelled like diesel fuel and at times sewer. We received no assistance getting onboard or instructions as to the procedure.

We understand that it’s ‘safety first’ when the weather is bad and our itinerary changed and we skipped all islands on the first day, sailing directly from Split to Dubrovnik. On the way back they tried to squeeze in all missed. Islands which meant limited time on some and extra time on others. We did not have the opportunity to stop at Zlatni Rat Beach on Brac but instead sailed directly back to Split arriving early at 10am. Weather was not a factor that day.

There was never any afternoon tea or coffee set up. Just a coffee dispenser which we had to figure out on our own. Crew were somewhat indifferent when it came to serving drinks.

The crew didn’t seem to pay attention to passengers needs.

Overall we were disappointed that this experience did not live up to our expectations. ”

On first checking in I immediately thought “we must be on the wrong boat” as it was not at all as pictured or described on your website. We had a tiny cabin with the bed against the wall meaning one of us had to climb over the other to get in/out bed. We had a tiny en-suite, the boat was old & in need of maintenance. There was a problem with the plumbing & one morning we woke up to our shower full of dirty waste water. The boat was also small, which once again was not as described on your website. The crew were nice but not professional for example they did not wear uniforms like the other boats and they ate & drank in the main area while we were still there. Everyone on our boat was disappointed with the small, smelly & dirty cabins & ensuites, however, no one else paid anything like the amount that we paid. It was ONLY the scenery & the other passengers that made this trip worthwhile.

The food was mostly good but because of how dirty things were it wasn’t appealing. The itinerary got changed every day due to weather but not sure if this small boat was affected more because of its size.

Our tour guide was good. ”

We were extremely dissapointed with our cabin and the bathroom. Both were not clean to any level I would expect. We thought we had selected a premium option with the chance of a double bed but definately not what we got.

The staff I found made you feel like you were interupting them from their smoke break if you requested to get a drink from the bar,

The captain did a great job of keeping us out of rough weather and out of the rain etc which was the only positive thing about our boat experience.

We also did not expect to be on a party boat with 20 odd young people drinking and yahooing half the night which happened quite loudly on 2 nights (out of the 6).

I would not book another tour on this type of boat. I don't understand what the Premium on the end of the tour actually even meant. I also note we paid more then the ladies on the other side of the boat to us and at least they had a clean tiolet.”

The voyage from Dubrovnik to Split was very enjoyable & interesting. The ship was extremely comfortable & the crew & tour guide exceptional. We usually docked twice a day in small places on the Croatian Islands & had plenty of time for exploring & swimming. It really was a most enjoyable 8 days.”

The tour was well organised.

And Eva the guide was really good.

She was remarkable.

Being that she had to conduct the tour in 2 languages.

47 people on the tour, I think that’s too many people.

It felt very cramped on the bus.

One of the evening meals was pretty bad

I think it was in Split

But overall the food was good

And I would definitely recommend on the go tours or elite”

The tour was not exactly what we had anticipated. There was no local guide to ask questions or information. We never knew what to expect with the transfers as the information we had been provided with was incorrect (our hotel accommodation in Dubrovnik, and the pick up location In Dubrovnik for the ferry).

No transfer came to meet us in Split with no contact from anyone. I eventually got hold of them and they advised that there had been a mix up and that we would need to get a taxi and would be refunded the cost.

The difference in quality of the 4* hotels and breakfasts included were so vast, that I do not see the value in this tour and price at all for what we paid for and would not recommend this to anyone.

I believe the amount of nights in each location should be reconsidered. One night in Hvar does not allow any time to visit the island.

Happy to provide if you would like, but overall, this was incredibly expensive for the quality and would not recommend to anyone. ”

Boat was nice. There were only 24 of us on the boat and there was plenty of room on deck for us all to have our own space if we wished . The only thing I would mention is the crew and friends of the captain used the outside table by the saloon, sitting around and smoking which meant the passengers couldn't use this area. Food however was average. Break fast options disappointing. Crew on the boat Antonela were ok. Barman Marino wasn't that friendly at times and you felt liked you were a bit of a nuisance if you asked for a drink . Didn't really get to know rest of the crew.

Filip our guide was really lovely, full of knowledge and very helpful.

Destinations were great and the swim stops were brillant. The people we meant were all lovely and we had a very fun time on our boat trip. The only thing I would change would be to book an above deck cabin as below deck became quite stuffy. ”

The tour was beyond our expectations. The itinerary provided a wonderful selection of sites of historical significance and /or natural beauty. The Adriatic Princess provided very comfortable accommodation and cruising.

Our guide, Zlatko, was superb both in his organizational role and in communicating frequently and clearly so that we were kept well informed of each day's program. He was also extremely knowledgeable when acting as our tour guide at various sites including the marble sculpture school on Brac island.

We would be privileged to have him as our guide on any future tours in the region.”

Our guide Veljko was fantastic - he was very personable, provided us with great insights, was very attentive to the tour group individual needs, and quite articulate.

The tour itinerary could have been better. The stops did not align well with preferred lunch times - free time for lunch was either too early like 11 am or quite late after 2 pm. Food options (we are vegetarian) around the lunch stops we're quite limited.

the hotels were not upto the standard we were given to expect for the Superior tour. While the beds were comfortable and breakfast was sumptuous and the staff very friendly, the rooms were cramped. and most of the hotels did not have an in room coffee maker, did not have a gym. The carpets were stained at most of the hotels. Certainly not quality 4-star accommodation that we were promised. ”

Great tour & tour guide. Blanche was our tour guide in Croatia. She was fantastic always letting us know what was happening always telling us about the history of the region we were in at the time. Could not fault her she was brilliant. The tour itself was really good & went to some fantastic spots & was well planned out. The last hotel ‘The Valamar’ was a great hotel to finish the tour at. It was a great hotel to relax after the tour if you wanted to. ”

This is a really great way of getting around from island to Island and seeing a variety of different things without feeling rushed or on an itinerary. Lots of chilled swim stops and sun bathing and then cultural things later in the day and sight seeing. Our guide Daniella was so sweet and so good at her job too. It’s small and friendly and we made great friends on board too. The only criticism for me was sometimes you had to clarify things that got missed, and that our cabin was not the best located, right over the engines so incredibly noisy first thing when we set sail but all in all, we lived this trip and would do another! ”

The tour and guide were great but On the Go Tours never told me what kind of cabin we would have had for the price we paid, we were repeatedly told all cabins were the same, only to find out once on board that our cabins were lower deck. This was a very disappointing experience, especially considering the number of emails that were sent on our side to get our personal infomation.”

Tour guide did not have the skills or level of professionalism I am used to. Hotels would not be considered 4 star in USA. Belgrade hotel was old but renovated. Braşov hotel was too far from old town. Bucharest was in bad neighborhood and not great restaurants nearby. Veliko Tarnovo hotel had musty smell. Rugs were old and wall paper peeling. Zlatibor hotel had no a/c. Sarajevo room small than my master bath at home. Smallest hotel room.

Dubrovnik hotel was too far from old town. No restaurants nearby. Residential area.

The tours of Montenegro and Bosnia were not much. I have previously been to Montenegro and the local guide on that tour was better than this one. I suggest getting local guides. For Bosnia and Montenegro. The local guides in Bulgaria and Romania were great. ”

The tour was better than expected with a great group of people on board. We visited some wonderful locations and the scenery was beautiful. The food on board was good and plentiful and the cabin was spacious. The two 4 am starts with engines running were difficult to sleep through but plenty of time to relax and catch-up.

The Markan Ship and the crew were outstanding. The places we visited and the swim stops were incredible. The room, ship and amenities were of a very high standard. Unfortunately the food was below standard and this was reflected daily. The fruit platter was old and unappealing, the menu was sub standard, inauthentic and at times inedible. The salad bar was in particular the lettuce was dry and lifeless. The chicken on the first day was dry, the crumbed pork was not fresh at all but a frozen Pattie and the salmon at the captains dinner was over cooked. The lamb had definitely been frozen and thawed as it was just tasteless. Most meals were served with lumpy mash potatoes or dry dry scollop potatoes. On one day I went to breakfast, the bacon was near empty and frequently they packed ip and took plates away when people were still eating. It felt rushed not relaxed. One day at 8.55 there was little bacon yet a full tray of fresh bacon was on a tray seen through the galley. Not acceptable to ask. I refilled the bread myself from the pantry. The table bread was delicious smothered in olive oil. The food was atrocious and very sub standard and I was grateful to dock and eat a restaurant’s to sample genuine Croatian cuisines. ”

Josephine was a brilliant tour guide. She was friendly a d very knowledgeable, she really gave us a lot of local knowledge about each place and its history as well as the hidden places of interest. The ships crew was also brilliant, polite, helpful and good humoured. A great experience. It wasn't clear when I booked, that I was booking a cabin down below. I then had to upgrade on board, as I was unhappy initially. ”

Not having read the fine print I was unaware of the size of the group, 47, far too big for my preference. Tour guide was excellent as was itinary though the length of free time at the end of the various walking tours was too long, most people were back waiting for the bus almost an hour before departure time. Food at the lunch time stops was generally good but the hotel evening meals were average at the start of the trip and gradually got worse, Corner Hotel and Lachroma food was so over cooked as to be almost inevitable.

Transport to airport (own used for earlier arrival day) was excellent

Generally enjoyable with interesting people from Canada, Australia and New Zealand ”

Our tour was great. It was relaxing and just the right pace for us. We explored all the islands as listed and had a great time!

A few points of improvement would be our boat the Dalmatinka had no snorkels, floaties or paddle boards which we have seen on other Katerina line boats.

Also our guide Robert was friendly however he could be more organized with his communication with us like start a whatsapp group so we know where our boat is docketed etc.

Other than that the tour was enjoyable. ”

This is the 2nd tour booked through On the Go and it did not disappoint. We were not sure what to expect from a sail/ cruise and was really pleasantly surprised. The crew and guide was great. The food was AMAZING and the boat was impeccably clean! In some little towns there was information on what was recommended for us to do and see as well as maps- this was very handy!

One thing I think could be done is maybe in the morning start off with a Croatian greeting and basic phrases to help us on the way? I think our guide was more of a tour coordinator rather than a guide. ”

Blanche was an excellent guide - knowledgeable, competent, organized and concerned for the welfare of the group. Hotel Lev Ljubljana offered a set menu – a sort of Ragout, with no greens or vegetables. In the morning, two of their three lifts were broken and our whole bus was delayed by half an hour while one of our suitcases, which had been inexplicably removed, was tracked down (through CCTV), located, and eventually brought down in the lift – total chaos! The room in Hotel Lev had a poorly designed bathroom, with a glass cubicle for a shower and a cramped space by the curtained-off wash basin. At the Hotel Corner in Split, from the 3 choices for dinner we we chose ‘Grilled steak and grilled vegetables’. The ‘steak’ was like hard rubber (inedible), served with soggy over-boiled non-descript vegetables. The dinner and breakfast buffet in the Best Western in Zagreb was good, and the dinner and breakfast buffet in the Valamar Argosy in Dubrovnik was excellent. The Argosy was a lovely hotel to spend our ‘free day’. All local guides were good, especially Elvis in Dubrovnik, and the itinerary and sights seen were great. ”

The tour was very enjoyable and interesting and as for your Tour Guide Blanša she was exceptional, professional and a joy to have with us. As Sales Director for a National Touring Company in Australia, we in the industry can sometimes be a little critical as we find it hard to remove the work hat, however I joined this tour for a holiday with my wife and did not divulge my background until much later in the tour.. Blansa was nothing short of fabulous in organizing all aspects of the tour and group. A very engaging person with a great personality.! A rare breed.

Cannot fault any aspect of your tour - well done! ”

The guide was friendly, knowledgeable and a great problem solver. The guides provided for each city were very friendly and knowledgeable. On the Go Tours arranged for multiple city tour guides based on the language spoken. So French speaking people had a French speaking tour guide, English speaking people had an English speaking tour guide, etc.

There was adequate time for people to go off and do their own thing once the guided tour was over in each city. ”

The tour was awesome. By nature, I am not a "group tour" person and was apprehensive about joining. However, my fears were allayed from the very first day. The structure of the tour (some organised events, some free time to do your own thing) worked perfectly. The destinations were magical; Croatia in particular stood out as my favourite place but Slovenia, Bosnia & Herzegovina and Serbia were all fascinating places in their own right.

If I was doing the trip again, I might consider leaving Serbia off the list - not because of the country itself, but due to the distances travelled to get there. The blessing I had, though, is the wonderful group of people to travel there with - it made the long distances pass very quickly.

Which leads me to the guide herself. Danijela was the star of the show :-). Very calm, practical, incredibly knowledgeable.....and very funny. Nothing was too much trouble for her. Danijela's insight into the recent history of the region was both personal and balanced. She is obviously very proud of her heritage and loves the region through which she escorted us. What would have been a wonderful tour regardless became perfection under her guidance. I can't speak highly enough of Danijela.”

All went as planned, the guide and boat Leonardo very good. Crew were excellent. Few points. Could have done with more specific information as to where to check in at Split seaport. Also the cabin we had was below decks, which we knew it would be, but what we didn't know was that it was by the propellers so it was really noisy. I left the cabin at 6am in the mornings when the engines started and went above (to watch for dolphins...which I actually saw). Think you should in the future make clients aware of the noise in the stern cabins. We also had noise on one occasion from the bar which was directly above us. These points did not spoil our holiday but if we ever go again we would only do so if we had an upper deck cabin.

We independently booked two apartments in Split which we would thoroughly recommend, Suzy Apartments and the Ark Beach Hotel at Strobec.”

The tour was fantastic. I thoroughly enjoyed the walking routes each day, with the mountain from Cavtat, the walk at Ston, and the day walk at Orebic/trip to Korcula my personal highlights. The first nights meal at the winery, and the last 2 at the family at Orebic were amazing.

Our Guide Darko was absolutely great; he kept us organised and on track, was fun and easy to talk to, and his commentary and info on Croatia, including his experiences, was another highlight.

Thoroughly recommended.”

When it was needed due to one day of strong winds, the captain diverted us to other beautiful island and The next day we sailed to the places we missed, we saw and enjoyed all the places in out itinerary. The boat was very conformable, clean and we enjoyed all our friendly passengers.”

The tour was AMAZING - the scenery, the boat, the food, the crew, and the other guests made our first ever cruising holiday just so amazing.

The tour captured many of islands around Croatia and really gave us a good overall feel for the country, we were pleased with how much information that Roco gave us each day, very informative and helped that he was local so could point us in directions for specific restaurants if needed.

The crew onboard the recently refurbished "lupus mare" were great, and really tried to go the extra mile for all of us. The food 3 course lunch was stunning, as well as the captains dinner. The cabins were spacious, and glad that we booked the rooms on the higher deck as gave us a beautiful view each morning.

The trip was amazing and our guide was really good and very friendly. My only feedback for the On The Go would be to have a better description of where to meet the ships and the correct check in time. The documents say that it departs at 1pm so there were multiple people who showed up a few minutes before 1 which caused the ship to leave later. They wanted people to check in at 11am which was not seen on the documents anywhere. It was a little stressful not knowing who would be checking us in and which boat we are on as there were many many boats there when we arrived. ”

That being said, I think the next time I would do this trip, I would look into upgrading to another boat which had a bit larger cabins especially the size of the bathroom. ”

Our "Sailing Split" trip was awesome and we could not ask for anything better. Our ship the Skarda was clean and well maintained. The 5 man crew were awesome, patient, and kind; especially Milan the bartender who took very good care of us. Cabins were small but had everything we needed. The ports of call were lovely and quaint and I most especially enjoyed the daily swim stops - the water was refreshingly cool and crystal clear. We had ample time to explore each port city/village and never felt pressured to participate in any of the side excursions. The food on board was as expected with basic breakfast and hearty Croatian lunches.”

The tour was great. The weather was perfect and the stops were all interesting. More importantly the boat that we were on and the captain and crew were excellent.

Ivan was an excellent guide. He was very attentive to everyone on board and always made sure that the current agenda was known as well as the next days agenda was available and announced. This helped us to plan for what we would be seeing and doing as well as what was coming up.

Ivan was well schooled on Croatia - geography, history, food, wine, etc. It was enjoyable learning about Croatia.

Ivan was very patient and didn't loose his temper even when some guests were slow to show up at designated places and times.”

Hi On The Go,

After an amazing few days at Croatia's Soundwave festival in Tisno, we treated ourselves to a wonderful cruise on your Sailing Split itinerary and it was fantastic! After partying hard for 5 days it was wonderful just to be able to relax and enjoy some of the amazing scenery that Croatia has to offer. We've never seen anywhere like it!

Food was great and we got to do some serious tanning. We stopped at some wonderful places to explore and Dubrovnik and Mljet were two of our favourites. Learning about Marco Polo before we explored his home town was a great addition!

We've been raving about it ever since we got home and our boyfriends are getting a bit sick of it! However we plan to take them next year - can't wait!

Thanks for everything.

I enjoyed the tour as it was fast-paced and included some destinations I was keen to visit. I like the half-board aspect although that may not be for everyone and did mean that the food we ate wasn't necessarily traditional/local in origin. It may be worth making that clearer in the trip notes, namely that the included dinners are at the hotels rather than at a restaurant of our choosing. The guide was enthusiastic and friendly.”

We had a fantastic holiday on Admiral. The boat was better than we expected, very comfortable and the meals and service from all the staff were of a very high standard. Deanna was excellent, she was always available for enquiries, very good humoured and good fun, she understood the needs of everyone on the ship and made sure she was looking after everyone and communicating all the plans each day. She was also good company socially and on board. I would say that she was probably one of the best Guides or Reps we have ever had.”

Have just returned from the Sailing Split cruise. Sarah Bansgrove from On The Go Tours was most helpful and friendly and called back a couple of times to check availability as we had picked a busy date to travel on. We booked a classic boat but were fortunate to be upgraded to a Deluxe boat on arrival, called the FANTAZIJA (had to pay for A/C) but this was okay as the FANTAZIJA boat was a really modern, clean and new boat (only 3 months old) and was looked after by an excellent crew (Captain Nino, Valentina (Barlady), Chef and assistant (Nikola & Svjezana) and sailors (Jure, Jasko and Tea). The food was outstanding, a 3 course lunch every day and breakfast every morning. We departed from Split and stopped at the following: Makarska, Mljet, Dubrovnik, Trstenik, Korcula, Hvar, Split. There was a morning swim stop and most of the time an afternoon swim stopping before docking for the night at an island / mainland. Favourite for me was Split, Dubrovnik, Korcula, Hvar and the best swim stop was at the Zlatni Rat beach on the Island of Bol (Golden Horn Beach). I cannot recommend this trip enough and would like to thank everyone, from On The Go to the fantastic crew of the FANTAZIJA boat (especially Valentina, who was an absolute star). The crew really work long hours but always had a smile on ther faces! We have really nice people on the boat, ranging from 15 - 70. I am in my mid thirties and the range was okay. (depends on if you want to party/relax). Some advice: Do the River Rafting on the Cetinin river (day of arrival), it is an excursion (you have to pay extra) but is a lot of fun. More advise: your tab on the boat is paid at the end of the trip, so ask for a running total mid week so you can get an idea of how much you have (already) spent as you don't want a surprise at the end of the trip! NOTE: you will need to pay this bill in CASH along with any tips for the crew. Thank you On The Go and the crew of FANTAZIJA for an unforgettable holiday and trip!”

Hi the Katarina Lines cruise was manned by Captain Ivo and his crew. They were very friendly and their service on board was just fantastic, our cabins were maintained every day . Marion the chef was the best cook every day we had a full breakfast and a 3 course lunch before we docked for the night so that we could explore the next island. I really loved that we had so much time to discover each island at our own pace, so much history and all the islands were beautiful. It was my first time on a cruise and loved that with 26 people on board we got to know everyone. We all had such fun meeting up on the islands and having dinner together and learning about each other. I will encourage my friends to go on this cruise and would go myself again. Thank you ”

Great value for the price, beautiful islands in the tour, excellent food in quality and quantity, helpful and attentive crew, good ratio quality / price for the services provided. Possible points to improve: Include group activities for the nights / traveling time, even though each one can read a book, do their own thing or engage with another travelers, having a common activity will promote interaction between people and will make it easier. Aim for a better balance in age distribution. I am 28 years old and was in a boat with mostly retirees or people in their 50s, even 60s. I find myself in what I feel as a non-targeted group, where I am too "old" for the cost saver boat, which was too much party for my taste and too "young" for the type of boat where I was with retired people. Maybe good to have a few trips where you have more people in this intermediate age and inform them of the possibilities when booking. On the contrary, where this is not possible and least inform that the average age is high.”

Tour was fantastic. We really enjoyed it. Right mix of free and structured time. We would recommend it to anyone. Boat was as described, facilities of a very high standard.

Weather conditions were variable and the communication b/w the captain and the guide needs improvement. When the whether was influencing the plan it wasn't unusual for there to be 3 different stories circulating on the boat as to what was to happen next depending upon who had talked to Ivan when.

We got the below deck cabin we paid for. We heard that some on the boat rec'd an upgrade from the Premium package to our Deluxe package. I think because they had on deck cabins in the Premium they received on deck in the Deluxe which meant they paid less than us for better cabins. Didn't detract from our holiday.

Drinks were not included in the Captain's dinner on the final night, this needed to be better communicated before the event. They also settled the tab before the Captain's dinner and then we needed to settle the Captains dinner tab the next morning. This is double handling and makes no sense. Tips were handed in before the Captain's dinner, not sure if this influences the above.

We found our own way to and from the harbour in Split. FYI two groups that I know of had transfer problems. One (2 English girls) booked through Flight Centre and I believe this was via yourselves. Mind you the other party saw one of the Games of Thrones stars at the airport and he too appeared to be struggling with his transfer.

Last question below is an n/a as I wouldn't expect such a short tour to achieve this. ”

Hi Phil,

I would like to let you know, that my childhood friend Katalin and myself had a most wonderful vacation on our sailing trip. Right from the start at boarding time to the last minute of our departure in Split we been pleased with everything. We found the sailing boat (Lopar) most comfortable, clean. The staff very attentive, professional, plus fun. Meals elegantly served and good variety of dishes cooked on the boat. Since we lucked out with fantastic warm weather, both of us loved the many swimming stops at beautiful bays. Our island visits were remarkable interesting at every stop as we loved all of the historical towns and natural beauties of the Mediterranean.

Hopefully I will have some other trips with your company in the future and I would definitely recommend you to anyone. ”

Hi OTG, Just a quick note to say how much I enjoyed my recent trip to Croatia. I took the Dalmatian Discovery and enjoyed every minute. I particularly enjoyed Krka Waterfalls, Zadar and swimming on the reef. I was really impressed with the boat and the cabins and as I do on most boats - I slept like a baby. Thanks again On The Go!

The reps on Split harbour were more than helpful and showed us to the boat / room.

Crew were good on the boat. Provided a great service, were very friendly (especially so as it was good to see them getting involved in the social aspect as afterall it was a small boat and we were quite a young crowd). Only one fairly good Englih speaking member of the crew - which did lead to communication breakdowns on some occasions - but wasn't too much of a problem. Emile was the perfect crew member for the trip - friendly and always jovial. Ludo was also great craic.

Meals on board were good. Breakfast between 8-9 was at an OK time (though - some people were looking to lie in on their holidays). Lunch was always 'massive'. I enjoyed all of them, but some people found it a bit too much.

Captains dinner was a stand out meal - absolutely superb. We had a birthday in the group that night also - and the night will live long in the memory! The dinner was first class - probably better than any that we had on land, and the crew were great fun for the night that entailed.

The little beach near Bol was my favourite place - what a superb site. We should have stayed there for a whole day!

Overall, I would highly recommend the trip - had great fun and was dead lucky that the group on the boat was brilliant!”

Hi Kelly,

We came back from gorgeous Croatia few days ago and still can't stop thinking about it. Sailing the Dalmatian coastline and

exploring different town every day was amazing.

Trogir known also as 'little Venice' was definitely the highlight of the tour with its beautiful architecture and venetian-like canals.

Great experience!

Thanks! ”

Hi Charlie,

I just came back from the sailing tour in Croatia and wanted to let you know what a fantastic time I had!

The combination of relaxing and active time was just perfect. Lazing around the boat while catching some sun, snorkeling and exploring all the Islands... I could easily spend there another week or two.

Many thanks for all your help.”

Hi John,

I wanted to let you know that me and my girlfriend had a great time it Croatia last month.This holiday was just what we needed - to get away from the city, chill out on the white beaches and swim in the blue sea... so relaxing!

Cheers! ”

We had a wonderful time and were well looked after. The weather was great and we scored well with a good bunch of fellow travellers (I’ve had my share of flops so was happy with this point!).

Thanks for booking it for us. ”

What a trip!I would like to thank you guys for talking me into going on the Onboard at Opatija tour. I haven't had so much fun in ages!

Our group was really fun and we socialised very well. The boat crew was exceptional and during the storm they remained professional and took good care of us.

Well done!”

I have been on sailing holidays before and have to admit this trip was one of the best ones! In eight days I managed to see and learn so much with still enough time to relax in the sun. Krka Waterfalls were simply stunning!

I would highly recommend this sailing holiday.”

Have just experienced one of the best holidays of my life sailing along the Croatian Coast aboard the Labrador Boat. Met some of the finest people you could ever hope to encounter and laughed from beginning to end. The standard of service on the boat from the crew was excellent as was the food. I can't recommend this trip more highly-quite superb. ”
