  Magellan National Parks of Dalmatia E-Bike & Boat
Croatia

The most memorable part, has to be parts plural. Loved the biking through the country and small towns, seeing people harvesting olives, drinking local grappa and coffee, walking thru the ports, listening to the sea organ in Zadar, swimming in a isolated bay from the boat. How can you pick one?

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.

The rides were phenomenal… Would have loved to have slowed down a little to enjoy the scenery, but the scenery was spectacular. The food on the boat was unbelievable! The chefs did a wonderful selection of diverse foods. Our guides were very good and competent.

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

The trip was well- organized. A detailed itinerary was sent prior to boarding and it provided adequate information re: what to expect on a daily basis and what equipment was required. The guides were knowledgeable and friendly. The staff on board the boat were also friendly and responded quickly to requests. The food was great with adequate portions for all. The bikes were well taken care of and in good shape. Prior to the trip, staff from TripSite provided quick responses to questions. You could easily do this trip on a normal bike if in good physical shape. The optional guided tours at various ports were informative and added value to the trip. There was enough downtime each day as we travelled to new ports.

We enjoyed this tour so much! We were one of the last tours of the season, late September, which ended up being the perfect time to go as the weather was not too hot. It was ideal for cycling. It was less ideal for swimming, but we still managed to have a few opportunities for water fun. We also ended up with a really fun group of people on our boat, so that definitely added to our enjoyment. Ebikes were a huge plus for the long climbs. Those on regular bikes in our group were pretty wiped out each day. We had two guides, Mirta and Kristopher, and they were excellent! They gave us good information about each stop. The boat was an older, wooden boat, but the rooms were comfortable the rooftop deck was a huge plus! Nearly everyone we encountered spoke English and most signs with in both English and Croatian. It was a very easy country to get around in and experiencing some of the islands by boat and bike was a spectacular way to go!

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!

Dalmatian Coast from Split to Dubrovnik
Croatia

Split, the hikes on Island Brad and Hvar Island were the most memorable. Our briefing in Split was comprehensive with well organized materials. Villa Toni was wonderful and our host was exceptional in customer service. Villa Nora was nicely located and the hosts were welcoming. Did not enjoy the entire Korcula experience - parts of the hike were okay but some along a major road were not. Nothing to see or do in Korcula. Hotel Liburna was okay - best part was the breakfast. We skipped Day 6 of our itinerary because the travel and hiking seemed uninteresting. Hotel Lapad in Dubrovnik was amazing and wonderfully located away from the touristed areas. Dubrovnik was very expensive and Old Town was jammed with cruise tourists. There were several stop gaps and wait times on this itinerary which were frustrating to us.

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!

The food was delicious and the chef had vegan options for us each day. My favorite part was riding each morning and then coming back to the ship to a nice meal. Even though it was mid October, we enjoyed several "cold plunge" dips in the Adriatic Sea which helped alleviate sore muscles..

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

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 staff was above exceptional. The weather caused problems for the crew, but I thought it was handled extremely well. We missed the Iron Gates because of weather conditions, but the staff made up for that as well. The final dinner was fantastic, but the change in plans on our arrival, not being able to land in Passau was very discombobulating, and highly stressful. Plus, we didn’t have time to collect my thoughts properly. It was horrible.
I would have like a better room than in the hole of the ship where I couldn[t see anything
I would have liked a better electric bike from the start than the one I was originally given because I had to miss some biking.

Wonderful experience! Everything about the trip was memorable from the e-bikes, to the tour guides, to the food and accommodations. Weather was a little challenging in October but between the tour guides and the boat captain, the itinerary was adjusted so we never got wet riding and the trip experience wasn’t compromised.

Our trip was absolute perfection, from beginning to end. Harmonia is a beautiful, well-appointed boat and was a comfy home. There were 32 of us aboard, and it seemed like the perfect group size. The staff were all warm, friendly and eager to please. The chefs, Dante and Stanko, made beautiful and abundant meals and accommodated my pescatarian diet. Our guides, Bubi and Nikki, were THE BEST! They spoke flawless English and were funny, charming, capable, fun and patient. The bikes were very comfortable and easy to learn and to steer. The rides were varied in terms of scenery and terrain, and all were stunningly beautiful. We enjoyed swimming in the warm, clear Adriatic right off the boat, and some even used Harmonia’s SUP and kayak.

All in all, it was a dreamy and very easy vacation. It was a perfect way to see a gorgeous part of our planet while indulging our love of physical activity. We highly recommend!

The tour is a great way to see the charm and beauty of both the Adriatic sea and small historic ports of the Croation Islands.

The views were spectacular! The people of Croatia were friendly, welcoming and accommodating. It was a most enjoyable trip.
Tips: pack water shoes and a light weight towel in your back pack while hiking to enjoy the many beaches!

Istria
Croatia

We had never been on a bike and barge tour like this, and we LOVED it. Istria is simply an amazing place to start with, made even better by the well-appointed boat and the hospitality of our guides, crew, and fellow travelers. It was a perfect mix of relaxing cruising on the boat, the activity and camaraderie of the bike tours, guided city tours, and exploring the history and towns of Croatia on our own. One unexpected and delightful part of the tour was the food served on the boat. Mario, our chef, created magic in his small galley. People were literally cheering and chanting like they would for a rock star when he came out of the kitchen. The rest of the crew were amazing in their own ways: fun, attentive, interesting, approachable, and excellent at their work. I would advise people to choose the e-bikes for this tour and to be comfortable riding in groups, in some traffic, and on some dirt/rocks/gravel. The guides were great at preparing us for the rides, but some of the sections were difficult for someone who may not be a confident bike rider. More "moderate" than "easy". With that, the experience exceeded our expectations, and I highly recommend it!

Wow! Hands down, one of our best vacations ever!! Everything was memorable . . . gorgeous landscapes (new eye candy every day!), beautiful weather (Sept. 20 - 27) - 70's and sunny, challenging exercise, exquisite meals, dipping in the crystal clear Adriatic . . . and, best of all, getting to know our terrific guides, Romantica staff, and travel mates from all around the globe (Iceland, New Zealand, Australia, Germany, Canada, and the U.S.).
My husband (70) and I (64) love to bike ride, but we weren't quite sure what to expect on this trip in regards to elevation. The rides were tough, but so rewarding when finishing. I rode a regular bike 4 out of the 6 days; My husband rode a regular bike 5 out of the 6 days - it was so great that extra e-bikes were available so we had a choice on the most difficult days. Only 3 riders (out of the 26) rode regular bikes all 6 days.
We love adventure and active vacations . . . this trip was the best!!
