What a way to explore stunni
We had a wonderful time aboard. This was our first time on a smaller boat and we weren't sure what to expect. We didn't need to worry. We meet some lovely people, the crew were fantastic, the trips meant we had a great mix exploring and the morning crusing meant time to chill. All the islands we visited were stunning and there was plenty of time to enjoy each of them. The cruise manager was very informative. The food was great. A good variety and presented well. The captain's dinner was a highlight with live music too. We chose a lower cabin - it was snug but fine. The whole boat was kept clean. There were plenty of places to sit or lie on the decks. I wouldnt hesitate to recommend or book again.

The cruise certainly met expectations, we loved the small town ports we stopped at with a good balance of cruise, swim, port time. The sqim stops were certainly a highlight in auch clear clean water. The town of Trogir is an amazing place and a recommnded stop. The family restaurant at Zrnovo had truly amazing home.made food.

Wonderful Dalmatia!
An excellent trip with a very attentive crew. The boat was nice enough and neatly kept. It needed more shade on the upper deck which was not for smoking. We really enjoyed the long swim stops but the boated needed adult size paddle boards and maybe a kayak or other swim floats. Each port our cruise director gave a short tour and pointed out shops or restaurants based each couples style or preference. The excursions to Krka National park and the oyster farm were excellent! We took the Split to Dubrovnik route so we could stay a few extra days which worked out great as we were well acquainted with Croatia before venturing on our own.

MS Arca - Awesome Adventure
Our time on MS Arca for the 1st time in Croatia was truly an experience that we won’t forget. All the crew were outstanding lead by cruise manager Tomi who’s enthusiasm & passion for the country and his job was inspirational. He went above and beyond to keep all passengers engaged in activities & learning about the culture throughout the 100s of years all the way up to present day. They kept us safe and up to date with all weather changes etc. The variety & quality of food was exceptional. The presentation and taste was some of the best we’ve experienced. The rooms were well maintained and the Arca was kept to a great standard. Hope to return again one day. Cheers Sean & Michelle Martin Australia

Great experience—but all in English!!
Great experience that I will always remember. Good luck with the travel companions, it was fantastic to share with wonderful people. The boat very well and the food too. Ivana helped us in everything and was wonderful. The only thing is that only English was spoken, no one spoke or could understand practically in Spanish. It would be great if the company could offer this experience to Spanish-speaking audiences that can't handle it in English.
