This trip has some of the most amazing marinas and swim spots, with an amazing knowledgeable Skipper named Ante. The suggestions and connections he has really made this trip a once in a lifetime experience! The boat is tight space but most of the time you are on top the boat or exploring the ports so it isn’t a big part of the trip inside the cabin.

Excellent trip, very hot in July though, make sure you are OK sleeping outside because the boat can get toasty.

I would highly recommend this sailing trip in the Croatian islands, it was a fantastic experience with a phenomenal skipper (Ante) who looked after us perfectly throughout with brilliant locations to visit, great knowledge of sailing shared and brilliant advice on restaurants.

If you haven’t thought of Croatia as a travel destination think no more! Stunning, breathtaking, and enchanting are a few words to describe it! Sailing the Adriatic is the BEST way to see Croatia and it’s beautiful coast! Amazing trip!

This trip was amazing. Sailing in Croatia is a wonderful way to see the islands. This was my first solo trip as a female traveler and I felt very comfortable. Would recommend this trip to anyone considering visiting Croatia.

Amazing trip - great itinerary, beautiful location, safe skipper. Went as a solo woman approaching 60 (v fit & active) and soon absorbed into the group dynamic and have a wonderful time. Go for it! I'm off to plan my next adventure.

The best holiday we have ever had. Intrepid delivered on all that was advertised and promised in the brochure and itinerary. A special thank you to Ante our skipper for an amazing experience and 5 star service

The trip was absolutely amazing, I felt the itinerary, travelling to the smaller islands and larger islands was a brilliant combination. I was able to experience each island, their different vibes, local foods, wines etc. Our Skipper Bruno was excellent in his knowledge, expertise and ensuring the group was all okay and made the experience such great fun. Loved it!

This trip was fantastic, the location is incredible, some truest stunning sights, the trip overall was well organised and put together and I had the most amazing first solo holiday experience

Get to know a different side of Croatia….Bruno was an excellent guide who showed us the wonderful nature of Croatian islands, beautiful little towns and offered us a very relaxing time on the boat. For me, it’s a 10 out of 10! ??

Fantastic trip. A great intro if you are curious about learning to sail. I was able to ask questions and learn along the way. Our skipper was amazing at showing us local places and has incredible insight - very fun adventure I would recommend.

I really enjoyed sailing in Croatia. The islands are beautiful, the water crystal clear and being under sail seems to be the best way to visit a series of islands and experience their diversity. We enjoyed hiking, electric biking, learning sailing skills, seeing ancient towns, eating at local eateries proud of their local dishes. The yacht is more than a means of transport, it is the focus of life for seven days and a great place to learn how to settle into the rhythm of life at sea. Highly recommended

Intrepid were great . Everything went as it should. They were helpful when my bags were lost by the airline (to their recovery) Ante, the skipper was simply wonderful and Croatia is just as amazing too

This was my first time on a sailboat and turned out to be an amazing experience. The water is incredible pristine, so the many swimming stops were an absolute treat. Our skipper Ante knew all the islands inside out and had the best recommendations for food, optional excursions (seeing the Odysseus cave on Mljet was one of the highlights of the trip) and other places off the beaten track.

I found this trip a little underwhelming. There were some great moments and experiences, however the pre-trip information and the information provided by our skipper during the trip made it hard to know where we were going and to make the most of each destination. While there is time to explore, the trip is more about motoring / sailing.
