We had a great time exploring the city center of Split with Toni as our guide. He was very friendly, answered all questions with patience and made sure we saw all the key highlights and hidden gems of the city center. We really enjoyed his insights and the relaxed atmosphere he created. Highly recommended, rgds from Bucharest :-)

The guide was dynamic, captivating and explained things very well, albeit in English. I was able to understand a lot of what he was saying. Learning the history of the city for 15€ is definitely worth it. Without the guided tour, we'd have missed out on a lot of the city's history.

This guided walking tour is the perfect way to understand Split's evolution, from the Roman emperor's retreat to Croatia's vibrant seaside hub.

Your passionate guide will reveal Split's secrets and ensure you see the city beyond the usual tourist trail.

Wander the UNESCO-listed Diocletian's Palace complex, the heart of Split, and soak up its rich history.

Mingle with locals on the Riva promenade, then soak up the lively atmosphere of People's Square, browsing for unique souvenirs.

Fun fact: The Luxor Cafe, located within the Peristyle of Diocletian's Palace, boasts an Egyptian sphinx guarding its entrance.

Very kind guide, but it's a shame there's no audio guide to follow the tour in French. Good description during the tour, but not always easy to understand in English.
