National Parks of Dalmatia E-Bike & Boat

The crew, Ivan and Nikola, and guides, Mateo and Martina, were absolutely wonderful. They made ever effort to ensure we had a great time and all of our needs were met. The daily itinerary was perfect for most - most days was a hearty breakfast, then 2+ hours of challenging but not impossible biking throughout gorgeous scenery, then back to the boat for swim in the amazing Adriatic. The towns were welcoming and not crowded. The Capitan had to adjust the course due to weather, and it all worked out fine. The chefs made delicious home cooked meals. We had a below deck cabin, and it was just fine. Nothing fancy, but we didn't need that because we spent our waking moments on the boat on the sundeck, salon or bar. It was perfect for us - people who love to bike, swim, eat, and drink with good companionship.

Overall excellent. See comments below for more suggestions. Guides were excellent. Crew also excellent!

Great routes, excellent Guides, delicious food. would recommend this trip.

The culmination of this trip was when our guide brought us high up onto the hillside, on our second to last day, and as we descended, we could see every town and island we had just cycled. It was very moving to look down on the geography of the area, the water ways, the islands, the bridges and cliffs.

I loved the guides, crew, boat and guests. Croatia is beautiful and the biking was wonderful!

Absolutely amazing trip and would return in a heart beat. Highly recommend and my sister is booking with you for 2026 ! First class food, and tour guides and definitely 10 out of 10 experience.

Boat was luxurious, food was excellent and the guides and staff were top notch.
The biking was most excellent

Just back from a wonderful cycling trip with enthusiastic guides (thanks Ana and Lea), a gorgeous ship (Princenza Diana) with a great crew, beautiful scenery and fun rides. I had an e bike and hubby had a gravel bike. He was only 1/4 on a non e bike. 31 of us in total riding. The guides were in front and behind, safety first. But we were able to actually ride good distances before stopping to regroup. Of course, you could stop anytime for a drink or to take pictures. I've been on bike trips where the guides regroup you every few km, and it can be frustrating. We had 3 flat tires in total, which the bike guides handled quickly and easily, no major falls, and only one person missed the boat and had to take a ferry and Uber to catch up at the next port. If you park your bike by the ship, they assume you're on the boat. Instructions are given in detail on the boat, usually after the meals. This is the Blah Blah time, and they go over the route, expectations and answer questions. Briefings were excellent and also fun. The guides set the tone of the trip and these two were knowledgeable, solid bikers, but also charming and super fun! Food - the best food we've eaten on a bike & barge trip. We did a different part of Croatia a few years ago with a different company and the food was very poor quality, insufficient quantity and sometimes inedible. Our chef spoiled us with delicious meals that were plentiful. Meals were a highlight. The cycling is rated Easy to Moderate. If you cycle regularly, this trip is more on the easy scale, but not boring. If you are not a big rider, which some were on this trip, the most challenging thing is the few steep and long ups and downs. However, we were always warned ahead of time so knew what to expect. There's one downhill that's steep, curvy, but also had small speed bumps, and a main road crosses it just more than halfway down. These are the things that we would be informed of and the guides were quick to slow and point out the bumps and stop to gather before the road. This was by far the best bike & barge cycling trip we have done in Europe. As a couple, we have done about 10 cycling trips and this was our third while living in a boat. Some city tours were included and passes to the national parks. There was always enough time after cycling to do a little exploring in town on your own. Also, it was nice to be able to eat a few dinners in town on our own. Highly recommend this trip! Miss Croatia and all our fellow cyclists already!

Things I liked: great boat, good food, fun guides, good boast staff, Croatia in general and the guests, many of whom were our friends.
Things I didn't like: too many cyclists for the number of guides. two guides is not enough for 31 guests. also a lot of beginner cyclists meant we were at times treated like school children out for an outing. this trip isn't great for experienced cyclists unless you're happy to ride very slowly and take a lot of breaks. I personally didn't feel very safe riding with so many people with marginal bike skills. for me, it would have worked better to have a faster group and a slower group. a faster more experienced group doesn't need two guides and doesn't need to be told how to ride or how to be safe. maybe a self-guided option would have worked best for me.

Very much enjoyed riding and seeing all the seaside towns and stops as we rode. Just beautiful!

The biking each day was the best part. We went through the charming coastal towns and along quiet roads that showed off beautiful ocean views and green countryside. It was stunning!

The long stretches of quiet backroads with no traffic, among the greenery, with a slight breeze.

I loved everything about the trip. The boat exceeded my expectations and was amazing. The guides and crew were very professional (and fun) and made our trip so much fun.

I dealt with Ava at tripsite, who I found fantastic. She was so quick responding to my questions. She is definitely an asset to your company. Thanks Ava

Suggest any travel on public roads, groups should be split so gaps allowed for passing vehicles to fit in to.. this should be sorted before the start. Standardise the words to call out for vehicles approaching from behind.. eg car behind, or car up.. whatever and instruct group when to use this. Guided tours well worth doing when ashore.

An excellent adventure! We enjoyed the balance between, relaxing on the boat, biking and learning about the history of the places we visited.
