This tour runs from Dubrovnik to Split—if you'd prefer to start near Split and finish in Dubrovnik, check out the other itinerary. Inclusions and everything else remains the same (plus with this direction, you get a chance to try whitewater rafting).
This 8-day e-bike and sailing cruise takes you through seven Dalmatian islands aboard a 144 ft (44 m) luxury yacht. Each day brings a new island and a choice of routes—short or long, flat or hilly—with local guides leading the way on e-bikes through stone villages, olive groves, and coastal roads that most visitors never find. Everything is taken care of: rides, meals, and a jacuzzi sundeck to come back to at the end of the day.
Arrive in Dubrovnik and meet for a guided walking tour of the old town—limestone streets, city walls, and Baroque churches that have been drawing visitors for centuries. Welcome dinner on board, then a short evening sail to the island of Šipan.

Accommodation: Luxury Voyage yacht

To join this Croatia bike and sail cruise, good fitness is required. Daily cycling ranges from 10 to 60 km (6 to 37 mi), and most days offer a short and a long version of the route. This tour is imagined as an e-bike trip.
The longest stages involve up to 1,000 m (3,280 ft) of elevation gain on hilly island terrain. That said, you’re never carrying luggage, there’s no pressure to take the longer option, and the yacht gives you a comfortable place to recover between riding days—making the week ideal for different fitness levels.
Your guide offers e-bike rentals, just leave us a note at checkout if interested.

Comes down to whichever bookends your trip better—the sailing, riding, yacht, guides, meals, and price are the same either way, just run in opposite directions. Start near Split in Trogir and finish in Dubrovnik, or start in Dubrovnik and finish near Split. The one real difference: the Dubrovnik-to-Split route wraps up with the option to add white-water rafting on the Cetina River (€50, payable locally) on your last day of riding. Want to end the week on that note? Go that direction. Otherwise, pick whichever city works better for your flights.
