IMPORTANT NOTES:
Bicycle Types and Recommendations: Our ground suppliers offer both traditional bicycles and electric bicycles (e-bikes). However, due to the demanding terrain and frequent ascents along the routes, the majority of participants opt for e-bikes. To maintain the group’s pace and ensure an enjoyable experience, we strongly recommend selecting an e-bike. Guests bringing their own e-bikes must also bring:
If the battery cannot be removed, the bicycle becomes significantly heavier, which places unnecessary strain on the guides and crew.
Swimming Breaks and Cycling Routes: When weather permits and depending on the itinerary, swimming stops are planned-either in secluded bays or after the cycling portion of the day, before continuing to the next island. The length and difficulty of daily cycling routes may vary due to local conditions, detours, or shortcuts. Both sailing and cycling plans are flexible and may be adjusted according to weather and the group’s ability. Departures typically take place in the morning, usually after breakfast.
Bicycles and Participant Responsibility: Bicycles can be rented upon request. Participants are responsible for their own safety and are expected to always follow the guide’s instructions. The guide may alter the itinerary depending on weather or group capabilities. Guests bringing their own bicycles are required to bring the following:
Our ground suppliers are not liable for any damage to personal bicycles during the tour or transfers between land and vessel. Guests are responsible for maintaining, assembling, disassembling, and packing/unpacking their bicycles. Guests who rent bicycles accept full responsibility for their condition and agree to return them in the same state. Any damage will be charged according to Katarina Line’s spare parts price list, available from the guide upon request.
Food and Additional Meals: The program includes breakfast and either lunch or dinner. During cycling days, we suggest stopping at local restaurants to enjoy authentic regional cuisine. These meals are not included in the cruise price and are paid directly by the guests. A Captain’s Dinner is included for guests on the Premium and Premium Superior categories, and available for purchase on board for guests in the Traditional Ensuite category. This special evening is hosted by the captain and your tour guide.
Recommended Equipment for Bike Cruises: We recommend packing the following for your bike cruise:
*Wearing a helmet is strongly advised for all cycling activities. Whether you are on a casual ride or a longer tour, a helmet provides crucial protection and significantly reduces the risk of serious injury in the event of a fall or accident.
Due to the size of the ports, vessels may be lined up next to each other, which may result in other passengers boarding your vessel to reach another vessel or the port.
The Captain has the right to change the itinerary in case of bad weather or similar inappropriate conditions in ports to ensure safety on board. Routing may also change due to the number of vessels in each port. Due to capacity, a sister vessel may be used which is of similar design and standard.
