    · · National Parks of Dalmatia by Bike/E-bike and Boat

    This was a great way to see a lot of places in Croatia. The boat crew and guides were fabulous!! The food was amazing, the rooms were very comfortable - so happy to have air conditioning! We had a great group of people on the boat and went away new friends from all over. The e-bikes were necessary because of the hills. I would definitely do another bike cruise with this company!

    Wonderful biking in the islands!

    · Split to Dalmatian Islands

    This tour is a wonderful way to ride as much or as little as you want to. The self guided tours are very easy to follow using the app, and the bikes were in excellent condition. Taking the ferries out to the islands each day was very easy, and the islands themselves are very beautiful, with little traffic. Our tour contact, Michael, was very responsive and took care of the minor problems we had very quickly. The lodging was excellent.

    Great great trip

    · · Pearls of Dalmatia by Bike and Boat, Romantica

    What a great trip. Except for the condition of the "hybrid" bike I had (did not use e-bike), everything about this trip was beyond expectations...cabin, food, support, guides. My wife and I have been on other bike trips and have loved them. This trip was truly the best we have done. Everything was done to make the trip 5 stars. Modifications, when needed, were made with consideration for providing the best experience possible. For the casual rider or not in top notch condition
    individual, an e-bike, is a must and will make the riding experience way fun. The islands are beautiful. The ride routes have challenging climbs. Guides were extremely knowledgeable, and supportive. The Romantica is charming and seemed the perfect match and vibe for the itinerary.
    There are newer and more "glamorous" ships we encountered, but was glad to be on the Romantica.

    Highest recommendation.

    As noted above, my only negative was the non e-bikes provided us. I am an very experienced rider and the bikes provided (the first one was not in acceptable riding condition, and the second provide was just slightly better) were poorly maintained, with shifters not working properly, rusty chains, etc., the wrong size for me, and the rides would have been way more enjoyable on a "good" bike. E-bikes appeared in good condition and well maintained.

    In spite of this, I loved this trip.

    First Boat/Bike tour; would do it again!

    · · Pearls of Dalmatia by Bike and Boat, Romantica

    Our guide and boat crew were great. We had some bad weather and they worked together to make up for it by diverting to other islands. We used e bikes with pedal assist; they were very nice bikes. There were extra bikes and batteries in case of problems. There was a nice balance of boat, bike, and independent on shore time

    excellent bikes, navigation and logistics

    · Split to Dubrovnik: The Islands and Coastline of Croatia

    This was our group's seventh European self-guided bike tour, and without a doubt the best. From the beginning communication was precise and prompt, planning was perfect. The equipment was excellent the navigation instructions were the best, calls for equipment adjustment were addressed promptly and efficiently
