Croatia Boat Trip Reviews
- 8-day Split Return cruise - Premier boat, 18-35s
The staff were really friendly and helpful, the food excellent, authentically Croatian. Cabins en suite alittle cramped for 3 people. Stopped at some lovely places from bustling cities to quiet fishing villages and had some great swim stops. Highly recommended.

What our customers ask about Boat Tours in Croatia
When is the best time to take a boat tour in Croatia?
The most favorable period for Croatian sailing spans from June to September. The waters of the Adriatic Sea reach their warmest temperatures during July and August making it ideal for swimming. Cities like Hvar and Split see comfortable temperatures near 75°F during June and September with noticeably smaller crowds. A TourRadar traveler shared: "We had good weather and loved the mid morning swim stops as well as the visit to different towns and ports. It was a relaxing cruise and we enjoyed the pace."
What are the must-see highlights during a Croatian boat tour?
The coastal route features Dubrovnik's UNESCO-protected Old Town walls the historic Diocletian's Palace in Split and Hvar Island's purple-blanketed lavender fields. Travelers often explore the Dalmatian islands including Korčula with its well-preserved medieval streets and the serene lakes of Mljet National Park. A TourRadar traveler noted: "Stopped at some lovely places from bustling cities to quiet fishing villages and had some great swim stops. Highly recommended."
What types of accommodation can I expect on Croatian boat tours?
Boats offer accommodations ranging from standard berth cabins to upscale yacht suites. Most vessels provide air-conditioned rooms with private bathrooms similar to those found on the Emerald Kaia yacht running the Split-Dubrovnik route. Boats generally anchor near city centers such as Gruz Port in Dubrovnik or Split's central harbor. According to a TourRadar traveler: "The staff were really friendly and helpful the cabins en suite although cramped for 3 people."
What optional activities are available during the boat tour?
The tours offer diverse activities such as Korčula wine tasting sessions for 30 USD Game of Thrones themed walks in Dubrovnik at 25 USD and Split area river rafting for 80 USD. Visitors can also cycle through Mljet National Park try ziplining near Dubrovnik or enjoy water sports. A TourRadar traveler shared: "A fantastic and easy way to see so much of Croatia with plenty of activity options."

Standard Croatia boat tours typically cover breakfast and lunch onboard letting travelers explore local restaurants for dinner. Premium services like Emerald Cruises include all meals with complimentary drinks. The kitchen staff can accommodate dietary needs including vegetarian vegan and gluten-free options with advance notice. As one TourRadar traveler commented: "The food onboard was excellent - fresh local ingredients and plenty of Croatian specialties. Having lunches included but dinners free gave us the perfect mix of convenience and flexibility to explore local restaurants."
What's the best way to get to the starting point of Croatia boat tours?
The main departure points - Split Dubrovnik and Venice - connect well with international flights. Most tours provide airport-to-port transfers. Split's port sits 30 minutes from its airport while Dubrovnik's harbor is a 20-minute drive from the airport. A TourRadar reviewer stated: "The transfer arrangements were seamless - we were met at Split airport and taken directly to our boat in the harbor making the start of our cruise totally stress-free."
