The guided bike rides were fun! Our guides offered us opportunities for lunch at a winery, an olive oil tasting and more. The rides along the coast were magnificent.

I loved everything about the trip. The biking across the various islands. The boat. The food, boat staff and the boat staff.

Make sure to stay in Split and Dubrovnik a couple of days to see all the site’s well worth it.

The biking riding! Each day was a different experience, e-bikes were a lot of fun and the guides did a great job with the daily tours!

The trip was amazing- Courteous staff and tour guides. Dora and Alen were very attentive and made sure we all were comfortable and we having fun. The staff of the boat Marijana, Ivana, Dante, Stanko Ante, Dominik, Marin and the Captain Filip treated everyone like family. This was a trip of a lifetime and exceeded our expectations due to the team on the boat making this a very memorable trip that will always be an amazing memory. Looking forward to our next adventure with TripSite in the future!

My husband and I both agreed that this trip was the perfect balance of several things. The boat itself was just lovely!!! (clean, plenty of room to roam, sunning deck amazing, dining room/bar were cozy, our cabin was perfect size with windows), staff was so very friendly and exhibited exceptional attention to details (ie: early morning wiping down wet rails, food allergy concerns, even remembering our preferences), food was excellent, biking experience unforgettable, guides (Dora and Elan) blended as part of our group and gave very informative history lessons , plenty of time to walk/shop and enjoy the areas alone or as a group, A very well rounded, full, exceptional experience!!!! Many new friendships made! Beautiful country, honored to have experienced it. Oh, wine was delightful!!!! Can't forget that!

Great scenery, beautiful, crystal clear waters, more than ample “excellent” food, engaging high quality staff, Harmonia and team were great, bikes were well maintained….and learned about “Turbo” to make the biking much more doable. Olive Museum tour was exceptional and quite informative. Take full credit for ideal weather. Tour in Split was top notch.

The trip was terrific!! The guides, crew, yacht, & food were great ; especially the guides. The cabin was comfortable & quiet. We had a great group. There were many positive comments. The bikes were good. You needed e-bikes for this trip. Croatia is very hilly; some grades were 10%. I would rate the rides moderate to hard. Overall, this trip is a very good value. Ed Conroy

The boat was clean and beautiful and the crew was friendly and fun. Also, the food was spectacular and plentiful.

This was the most well organized and most thought out tour I have every taken. Every detail was concidered yet seemed effortless. Our guides Dora and Alen were laid back, yet professional. Loved that they had confidence that everyone in the group could complete every ride and enjoy it. There is some boat movement on windy days so plan to have something to help with that. Take your bathing suit and water shoes on every ride! So many opportunities to get in the water. Pace yourself as the day doesn't end after the bikes are stored. So much to do at every port. We loved every minute. It was the trip of a lifetime.

The entire trip was stunningly beautiful, to the Adriatic Sea, biking on the numerous islands and the views of the mountains while traveling on the boat and riding our bikes. The tour guides were knowledgeable and attentive as well as the entire crew on our boat. The bike trips were full of interesting sites and easy to complete. If you’re looking for a relaxing trip that includes biking on numerous islands, swimming at some of the some most gorgeous beaches around then this trip is for you. Book it now, you won’t regret it.

It's impossible for me to name a single most memorable part of this trip; it was the total package- beautiful scenery, beautiful boat, delicious gourmet food, excellent cycling equipment, excellent fun guides and ship crew. The size of the group was good and happily we all got along great. We were also lucky with the weather as shoulder season brought some rain we dodged with a slight itinerary adjustment. Despite an initial snag due to a couple of cabins not being what people had reserved via Tripsite, the trip guides managed to sort things out to everyone's satisfaction thanks to kindness and generosity within the group and I am confident in writing that every single person aboard had a wonderful time.

The scenery while biking and swimming off the boat the first day. If you are going on this trip, you owe it to yourself to try and get in decent biking shape. Even with e-bikes, some of climbs are long and challenging…but definitely worth it!! This is the third bike and barge trip we have done with Tripsite, and the first one that didn’t serve coffee until 7:30 in the morning. We are early risers, as were a few of the other passengers, and not having coffee nor tea available was a disappointment.

I was a little nervous about the e-bike tour after reading the pre trip descriptions of the daily rides. So on the first day I was very pleased with the results of that day's ride. It was a challenging uphill c;limb filled with switchbacks, but the e-bikes made it possible to make it to the top of the uphill section with energy to spare for the long downhill run. This positive experience was reinforced with each ride, especially when we did a 60km ride later in the trip. Again my e-bike carried me through a challenging ride through a long uphill section followed by a long downhill run. Our guides Bubbi and Nicky looked after us and made the whole experience very special.

As well as the biking the food was top notch thanks to our terrific chef. The whole experience added up to one of the best vacations I have ever had.

The whole experience was memorable. I
loved this trip from the beginning to the end . Nikki and Bubi were excellent guides, both fun and informative. We were never left wondering what was happening next. Even the food was very good and the server always remembered our preferences.
Thanks so much to everyone!

The 60 km day. Great sense of accomplishment. The best guides ever. The staff were amazing.

Biking throughout the islands was majestic and the views were breath taking. There were certainly some steep parts but the e-bikes made them very doable. The guides were super friendly and knowledgeable about the local environment and culture. The atmosphere on the boat was super friendly and relaxed.

People!! Do this trip!!! What an amazingly beautiful country and what a wonderful way to see it. Every time we'd go around a corner we'd say there's no way we could see something more beautiful than that. And then, we'd go around the next corner and it would take our breath away. This country is beautiful, clean and safe. The yacht Harmonia is everything they say it is and more. The crew is top notch, the food was wonderful and we felt very welcome. We had professional and attentive guides that did an excellent job of pivoting when the weather occasionally threw us a curve ball. (Thank you Dora and Alan! You were great!) The E bikes were in excellent condition and perfect for the sometimes hilly terrain. They smartly booked all english speaking guests on the same trip and we all bonded beautifully. It's so fun to be in a group with like minded people all experiencing the same thing for the first time. All in all we felt we got great value for dollar, will highly recommend Tripsite, and will book another trip with them in the future.

OMG amazing!!
We were trying to settle on one word along this journey to describe this trip. Part way through we chose "Stunning" however, on completion
this had changed to "Epic". Its difficult to zero in on a memorable part of the trip when it offered so many. the Harmonia was
a beautiful and spotlessly clean motor yacht. Our cabin on the main deck was a good size and very comfortable. The crew was hard working, courteous
and very professional who always made us feel special and safe. This along with wonderful meals, knowledgeable guides and gorgeous scenery made a trip we will talk about for years. Also, booking with TRIPsite was a pleasurable, professional and seamless experience - thus "EPIC"!
This will be the word going forward when we discuss this trip with our many friends and those we casually meet along the way.
Hennie, it was such a joy to have you join us on the trip and share your many travel experiences...

The most memorable part of the trip was the scenery and the tour guides that TripSite arranged to give us challenging routes which allowed for gaping at and stopping for photo opportunities. My tip is to have sleeveless biking tops as well as a true waterproof jacket, so you are prepared for any weather. We had e-bikes with comfortable seats, but I would suggest bike shorts with a pad for the longer rides.
The second most memorable part was the food, local favorites and 3-course meals and olive oil sampling with cheese and tomatoes and bread!
Last, I signed up as a single and appreciated TripSite encouraging everyone to alternate what table they sat at; therefore, we met so many new people from all over the world.

Our 2 guides, Philip and Bubi were excellent. Always in great moods, funny and receptive. They did everything to ensure our safety while on the bikes and instructing us in where we were going. Very helpful with arranging Ubers at the end of the trip and taking time with us.

What a spectacular trip on the Harmonia starting in the old city of Dubrovnik, thru the Beautiful Dalmatia Islands and ending in Split. The entire Harmonia crew were delightful and very talented/professional. They more than made our home on board comfortable and welcoming. Our cabin was just the right size, and there was plenty of room on the ship to socialize or relax on our own. The food was delicious, and galley staff were wonderful and very accommodating. The ship's captain and crew made the ride through the sea and ports incredibly smooth.
Our Islandhopping bicycle guides, Edi and Tara, were very knowledgeable and made biking thru the hills, coastlines and villages both extremely fun, safe and interesting.The ebikes made it all the more enjoyable, so the hills and distances were exercise, but still felt like vacation!
I would definitely take this type of trip to any destination with the Harmonia, Edi and Tara again :)

The last bike ride on Brac where we made several stops, especially the visit to the olive mill. The guides were awesome and made the rides and time on the boat fun. Making friends with other travelers was also memorable.

We loved our vacation on the Harmonia! The crew was wonderful. The ship was awesome and the food was delicious. Tara and Edi, our tour guides were awesome! They knew the bike tour routes well and let us know what to expect and made it fun. The e-bikes were great. Even though I’m not an avid bicyclist I was able to keep up. The only suggestion I would make is it would have been nice to have coffee available earlier in the morning. We will certainly consider taking another bike and boat tour. Croatia is stunning!

Beautiful scenery! Boat/bike riding is the best way to enjoy Croatia. Our guides Edi and Tara were amazing! Personalized our trip to fit what we wanted to see/do. The Harmonia is a great boat/way to travel!!!

I thoroughly enjoyed my trip on Harmonia. The boat was kept spotless by a hardworking crew. Our lower cabin was very comfortable. Meals were tasty. The tour guides were super friendly, knowledgeable, and very helpful. Be sure to take plenty of cash for water, drinks and tips.

The guide and crew were amazing. Views and history were interesting. I loved interacting with the local culture.

I would have liked to have spent more time in the villages and the beach stops. It felt a little rushed. Also, the last day would have been nice to stay on the last island, rather than going to Split and just docking.

  Harmonia Highlights of Dalmatia E-Bike & Boat

The scenery on this trip is absolutely stunning, and the e-bikes make it accessible to anyone. I am 65+ and not a regular cyclist, yet I had no problems at all conquering the hills. I would suggest bringing water shoes -- the beaches in Croatia are rocky, and there are often sea urchins underfoot.

  Harmonia Highlights of Dalmatia E-Bike & Boat

The beautiful boat, the excellent cook and crew.
I would suggest that the bike tour leaders would take a tiny bit more time to allow the bikers to stop at scenic sites to take photos.

Beautiful - not able to bike because of recovering from surgery but everything was pleasing to the eyes. Only downsides was almost all Croatians smoke so the back of the boat that had the best covered seating wasn’t good on the lungs. We had to ask the cook to use less salt.

Biking through the quaint villages and islands on well-planned routes was fantastic.

They did an excellent job of selecting routes that were interesting, beautiful, and the right level of difficulty. The routes go over some steep terrain so it was easy to see why e-bikes were required on this ride. The leaders did an excellent job of keeping us together so we didn't feel like we were being herded, but the slower riders were not feeling rushed. Several days they dropped us at one port and hassled around to the other side of the island to pick us up at a different town. I recommend this ride.

  Harmonia Highlights of Dalmatia E-Bike & Boat

The entire experience was most enjoyable and spectacularly scenic. The guides were fun and professional. They knew the roads, and provided appropriate guidance about the traffic or terrain. E bikes allowed a group of 29 riders to stay together. We had opportunity to swim and explore the ports towns. Rooms and common space aboard was very comfortable,

  Harmonia Highlights of Dalmatia E-Bike & Boat

The day we rode all day was probably the most memorable. The farm stop for lunch was very enjoyable. We would have liked to have more of the longer rides

  Harmonia Highlights of Dalmatia E-Bike & Boat
Croatia

The trip fell short of what was advertised. Operator over promised and under delivered so expectations were not exceeded, much less met.
The guides were great and did their best but the popularity of the region, even in the off season, resulted in crowds that prevented the boat to access dock space needed to unload and load bikes, required rafting up with as many as 9 other boats, did not allow one “explore on your own opportunities”, resulted in premium priced deck cabins being worse than more private and quieter below deck cabins, and so on.
All-in-all, 4 out of the 7 planned rides were offered and 80 of 143 miles covered.
This type of trip is always subject to change, due to conditions, but this trip fell so far short I blame the operator for the lack of contingency plans.

Too many highlights to list! Our guides and the rest of the boat crew were incredible. They are proud to show off their beautiful country of Croatia and truly love their jobs. There is not a better way to see the spectacular scenery and learn about the history of the country than with this tour.

  Harmonia Highlights of Dalmatia E-Bike & Boat

The most memorable part of the trip is the views from the top of the hills of the Adriatic Coast of Croatia. The e-bikes help a lot in reaching these summits, from which you get to swish along on switchbacks as fast as you care to go, into the destination harbor towns.

The views from the bike ride over the hills and the color of the water
I was expecting more seafood on the boat menu and less heavy meals

We had a wonderful time. Croatia is one of the most beautiful places we have visited! Our guides Marko and Edie were great, they took great care of us and were full of info about Croatia. They were fun and entertaining. As for bringing helmets, they are hard to pack and only 4 people brought them. The boat had plenty. The food was outstanding! I occasionally get seasick but had no problem on this boat. The wine was only sold by the bottle and beer by the glass. Our bar bill was $150 and has to be paid in cash (Euros) at the end of the trip. We did not drink much. Uber was much better than taxis and Dubrovnik buses worked great. The fast ferries from Split were cheap and easy beside the boat in the port. Cabins on board are small with upper berths noisier and more light at night. We are looking forward to another trip!!

The tour director, Eddie along with the other guides, made the entire trip a wonderful experience. The guides were a great deal of fun and very knowledgeable about the area. Their expertise and safety measures were invaluable while we were on the daily rides. In addition, the on-board life was very pleasant, particularly the dining. Matthew, the dining room manager, was perfection at its highest—a jack of all trades, managing the dinner services and the bar service flawlessly with a constant smile.
Overall - a fantastic trip which we keep reminiscing about!!

This was an amazing journey. We were well taken care of from the moment we stepped on the boat. All of our guides, Marco, Edi, Bubbi and Filip, were experienced, kind and helpful. They were available and willing to answer any questions. The chefs were incredible. My husband had an issue with his bike and a solution was found immediately. The bike routes took us on beautiful islands, each unique in their challenges and vistas seen. The e-bikes enabled us to ride places we’d have never been able to see. Neither of us had ever ridden an e-bike and we learned quickly.

  Harmonia Highlights of Dalmatia E-Bike & Boat

The overall experience was beyond our expectations! The Harmonia boat was spotless and well maintained and the crew and kitchen staff were superb. One highlight was the long bike ride of 38 miles through the beautiful countryside of little villages, small farms and lavender fields. Croatia has to be the rising star throughout all of Europe. With crystal clear waters, beautiful views and wonderful food that is very reasonably priced combined with extremely friendly people you have the perfect vacation destination.
This trip is a MUST do experience!

This was a 5 star trip for me! (Can’t click the stars above). We had fabulous guides (Edi, Marco). The crew was also wonderful. Boat was clean and comfortable, food was great. Scenery was amazing. Bikes were good. Our group on this boat were also wonderful. No wonder it was a five star trip for me! Thank you!
