Unbeatable experience.
We highly recommend getting to know Croatia through a small cruise, as this allows you to get to know the Dalmatian coast in the best way. The boat crew a 10, very helpful to make your stay unique. The food is spectacular, we have eaten phenomenally these days and the stops to swim on the virgin coast have amazed us. We have met wonderful people throughout this week making us feel like a small family.

Such a fun cruise from start to finish. It was so fun getting to know all of the other people on the boat, and spending time with them on the boat and in the ports. I enjoyed all of the islands that we visited and the history of Croatia. The swim stops were great. The whole crew did a wonderful job catering to the guests.

Amazing way to see the beautiful islands & hospitality of Croatia
This was an absolutely fabulous trip. The Arca is a smaller less luxurious boat than others perhaps, but the crew & everything about this trip made this the perfect boat. Wouldn't have wanted to be on any other. Fun activities & everything was well organized. 10 out of 10

A very comfortable trip to visit the Dalmatian coast. The number of passengers is very good to get a more exclusive trip. The meals were very good and served at the table. Having cold water available and fruit we value very positively. The attention and care of the Manager Cruise have made the trip easier for us.

Blissfull Croatia
The best way to see the Croatian Coast is on a small cruiseship and we would strongly recommend the Arca to our friends and family. Our cabin, no.6, was very comfortable, good beds and a spacious bathroom, for the size of the ship. The food, breakfast and lunch, was plenty and extremely varried and tasty. The daily excusions were great with overall good guides, everything was well coordinated, which made them a stressfree experience. We will do it again!

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.

Cruise manager/Guide was amazing. Swim stops were refreshing. Port stops had variety of towns.
