Sail Croatia Queen Jelena Cruise Ship and Cabin Tour - Our First Small Ship Cruising Experience!

We were invited by Sail Croatia to experience a week on one of their Elegance cruises. Our home for our week cruising around the islands of Croatia was the cruise ship Queen Jelena.
In this video we show you around all the decks and facilities on board and also give you a tour of our lower deck cabin. You can then decide if Queen Jelena would be the ship for you!
We are also in the process of editing a vlog series which should be published very soon.
Sail Croatia have lots of different ships and styles of cruising so for more information about cruising with Sail Croatia please do visit their website here - www.sail-croatia.com/croatia-...
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 our hotel pre cruise in Dubrovnik.

Great video! We've booked this ship today for the wine cruise next October.

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

It was a great experience would definitely recommend! 😃

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

Thanks Janette is was a fabulous trip, we were so chilled out!

[@j.m.7056]

Sign me up! I love the ship and the food looks just fabulous! Thanks for the comprehensive tour.

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

Your welcome, it is a fabulous small ship, we loved our time on board!

[@kevinbanham2429]

Right then….Another fun and informative video Paul and Carole I could see myself really enjoying a small ship cruise as you would get to know the fellow travellers and I’m definitely a people person. Thanks for sharing

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

Thanks Kevin! It was such a great experience would definitely recommend!

[@lizkeith1356]

wonderful.

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

Thanks Liz it was such a great trip!

[@WestCoastCultured]

Id love to try when I’m in Europe! Great tour.

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

Thanks Sail Croatia are a great choice!

[@LizBrazier]

Really thorough walk through. You nailed it. As a fellow passenger I agree with everything you shared. Nicely done! (PS never saw the bell on the front or the books in the cabinet!)

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

Thanks Liz! Lol we only spotted the books at the last minute! 🤣

[@cherylsemrau7100]

Lovely. Thank you for the tour. Fridge? Amenities?

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

Fridge in the cabin yes, what do you mean by amenities?

[@visitwithus]

Whoop! First! 😆🥂

[@Shello58]

Not fair! You should be finishing your vlog!😜🤣

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

LOL! 🤣🤣🤣

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

Hahaha love this! 😍

[@Tyson323232]

Love your video - very helpful. I am booking an above deck double cabin today for August cruise. I would have liked to see inside the upper deck cabin. Did you see inside one of them? Ps I’m guessing Paul(ee) is a fellow Bristolian? We are visiting from Australia

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

Glad you find our videos helpful. Sorry we didn't as they were all occupied. You were close with Bristol, but we are actually Forest of Dean Gloucestershire. 😃

[@Shello58]

Ship tour aside.. (Awesome as always!)...You have to BUY coffee?!!

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

After 12 midday. Would of been nice to have had 24 hour access!

[@jlizardi5013]

You adventurers! Hope to see more of that trip, soon 🙄. I don't think that would have been my choice on that ship category 😁

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

Vlog series starts this week!

[@janemayhew1442]

Hi both, Surprised how much space you had in your cabin, all looks in very good condition, lovely ports you visited. Being a small ship was it rough out at sea?! Thanks for showing .

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

It's a stunning ship. We did feel slight movement at times when sailing but no issues for us. You sail during the mornings then are docked from early afternoon. Great way to explore Croatia!

[@janethoughton6094]

looks fab. I love Croatia. Are you going to Rovinj

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

It was! No we didn't.

[@sharonwhite1985]

Glad you put the note about Kuna - I have some bought for a cancelled cruise so will go and exchange them for euros! Ship looks lovely

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

Yes changes in January. It I a fabulous ship, we loved our tome on board!

[@cynthiamccall3741]

Do you think this ship is disabled friendly ??

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

Hi Cynthia, unfortunately not this ship, so many steps to the decks and having to walk through other ships to someone's get off. Sail Croatia have lots of different ships so it would be worth speaking to them directly to see if there are other options.

[@nli4766]

I am now confused if this is a yacht or not……

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

Reading about it, it seems they class it as a steamboat....

[@Lord.Kiltridge]

I have been eyeballing Sail Croatia for a few years now, but I am the _only_ one I know who is interested in small ship cruises _and_ Sail Croatia doesn't do 0% single supplement. So If I come, I have to come alone _and_ pay for two.

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

Oh it is so difficult for solo travellers. There were a few on our Voyage. Have you spoke to them directly?

[@Lord.Kiltridge]

@@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel No. I haven't yet. This year is my first year cruising solo. Once in May and again in October. Still getting my feet wet. But Sail Croatia is on my radar.

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

Understand that. Hope you enjoy your cruises!

[@Bugsybugs]

Pronounced Yelena!!

[@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel]

Thank you!
