Episode 3 Sail Croatia - Find out if this is the best way to explore the islands of Croatia!

In our last episode of our Sail Croatia series we discuss movement, essentials to bring on this type of cruise and WiFi. We also visit Hvar, Milna and Split which all have something very different on offer.
We were invited by Sail Croatia to experience a week on one of their Elegance cruises. Our home for the week was the cruise ship Queen Jelena and this was our itinerary - Dubrovnik, Mljet, Korcula, Vis, Hvar, Milna, Split.
We have also filmed a complete ship tour of Queen Jelena which you can find here - • Sail Croatia Queen Jel...
Sail Croatia have lots of different ships and styles of cruising that suit all ages, so for more information about cruising with Sail Croatia please do visit their website here -

Disclaimer: We cruised on Queen Jelena in August 2022 and were guests of Sail Croatia for this trip. All views and opinions are our own and we retained editorial control. We were not paid to attend this trip and we self funded flights and hotel pre cruise in Dubrovnik.

Looks like Paul was doing sleeping Pilates. 🤣🤣Fun recap of the ports, we have been to Split, but, not the others. Really glad you had a "right nice group" to cruise with, it makes all the difference in the world.

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

LOL! The group was great, it definitely does make a difference!

[@mickeyjo5032]

Oh you two are so lovely and funny. Love how Paul whispers his stories like he doesn't want to be overheard 😆 Watch all your vlogs... just don't comment much haha

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

Thanks for commenting, it helps our channel! Lol glad you enjoy our videos!

[@janemayhew1442]

Hi Carole & Paul, Absolutely loved watching this cruise , great the amount of sailing time and staying in the ports ,especially would have enjoyed the blues music without getting off the ship!! Enjoy QM2, looking forward to your next video. Take care 🙂

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

Thanks Jane, it was a fantastic week! So looking forward to QM2! 😃

[@marjielalonde3875]

Looks as if this was a lovely, laid back holiday for you two! Glad you had such a wonderful experence and met some lovely people!

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

It was so good. A bonus meeting great people too!

[@richardburlton4034]

Thanks, a great series and it has certainly inspired me to take a serious look at one of these cruises. Stick with the Pilates even if you only do what I manage; my Julie is a retired instructor and she fixed me up with a morning routine of back exercises which take less than 2 minutes and they have kept me free from back pain for over 15 years.

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

Thanks! Oh really that's good to know!

[@janettesinclair6279]

Thank you both for another great report. The island hopping looks so interesting, so many beautiful views, and the sea swimming was a bit of an adventure. All that and Pilates too! Wonderful holiday!

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

It was an incredible week! 😍

[@jollyrob]

I love Croatia and have had trips to a couple of little islands from Dubrovnik and loved it. This looks like a fantastic holiday - a preferable alternative to a river cruise for me and hopefully not quite as expensive? Thanks for these inspiring vlogs 👍

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

Hi JollyRob, There is a link in the description that goes to all their prices, and types of cruise we thought they were good value! Thanks so much for watching and joining our live too!

[@kevinbanham2429]

Right then….. a fantastic vlog to finish out the series just a fun as always I’m a big fan of Paul’s humour always gives me a chuckle. 😂 . I am currently trying to talk some friends into doing this next year thanks to your videos so hopefully I can experience it for myself 😅

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

Thanks Kevin! Glad you live the humour. Hope your friends agree as it is a great experience!

[@dianabutterfield29]

Love you both, thanks for taking me around the world with you both x

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

Your so welcome!

[@carolinebrady5071]

Another great video, thanks so much x

Something to look into. Glad you had such a great time!

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

We certainly did!

[@pipfield1901]

Really enjoyed following your Croatian adventures, looks fabulous. I'm in Split in 2 weeks and can't wait!

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

Thanks for following, it was fabulous! have a great time in Split!

[@sanfordpress8943]

You both are so wonderfully entertaining and informative

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

Thank you! ☺️

[@joannaisaac7527]

Thank you so much. This has been so informative and has given me lots of tips for my upcoming trip x

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

Your welcome!

[@sanfordpress8943]

This is a trip that is perfect for me

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

It was a fantastic week!

[@chriswilliams6568]

Re. the island of Brac, surely the city records would show who owns any given property. Well at least it would here in Canada. Someone would have to be paying house taxes, cities here can re-possess the property to sell to recover the owed taxes. Nice video, thx. I share your opinion about Hvar, I hate crowds. I did not like the water place onboard that others could put their bottle neck right up around the spout, not hygienic. I had that where I worked before, and once I saw a guy do that, I never used it again.

[@Lord.Kiltridge]

LOL Bitter Sweet Symphony by the Verve. I totally get that reference. (I'm an old fart.) Love the series. I have to figure out how to get there.

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

LOL yes glad you got it! Thanks hope you figure it out!

[@gingerjo1791]

Pothole Cam!! ♥️

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

Lol! 🤣🤣

[@krc5210]

We def want to do this cruise you are on. Looks fun! Would you share the water bottle brand?

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

Our bottles were just cheap ones from Wilkinsons, worked well!

[@TheHouseboat1]

I love your blue and white dress :D (maybe black and white?)

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

Thanks it is dark blue and white! 😍

[@sarahhill752]

I’ve looked at these cruises thanks to your vlogs. How long are the swim stops, they look fabulous and what I miss on a large cruise ship?

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

The swim stops are a minimum an hour, mostly more. A very different experience than a large ship. You find your own entertainment.

[@gaynor247]

I know exactly the "Bitter Sweet Sympathy" video you mean...😂

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

Lol excellent! 😃

[@susanburston587]

Like Weston??? Well, there is sand, there is water - except ours is brown and Albany was definitely a beautiful shade of blue. Sand, yes there is plenty at Weston but I didn’t spy any of Weston’s mud in Albany. There are good fish and chips in Weston and the same in Albany so yes, I suppose there is a likeness between the two places 😂😂 😂😂😂

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

LOL we were confused then as you are commenting on a Croatia video........but glad you agree this is a very slight likeness between Weston and Albany! 😂😂😂

[@susanburston587]

OMG I looked at that after Australia I really don’t know how they got mixed up!. Hello dementia xx

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

Lol no worries! 🤣🤣

[@anng8468]

Great Cruise! Simply Lovely, I would eat that Tuna every day If I could. I couldn't tell did one of the Pizzas have Anchovies? Would you eat Pizza with Anchovies?

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

I love anchovies, Paul doesn't LOL!

[@anng8468]

[@anng8468]

@@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel Carole I don't want to beat a dead horse. (American Term) But I watch a lot of Cruise vlogs I have noticed I almost never see Anchovies on Ceasar Salads or buffets. Am I correct? To me it is a key option for a Ceasor Salad.

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

Your right, don't see them very much at all!

[@liverpoolk648]

Dont know what posessed me yesterday ..I got the wrong end of the stick entirely....I'm pleased to be entirely wrong...no offence meant.....I do love your videos so my comment was even more inappropriate...please accept my apologies

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

No worries at all! Appreciate your comment! 😍

[@liseoppenheimer7255]

What time of year did you cruise ?

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

Beginning of August. 😃

[@patearls8365]

Was the drink expensive on board.
