Highlights

On this tour we aim not only to acquaint our guests with the historical background of Split, but also to make a lasting impression of the destination. We wish to immerse them in local way of life and give them an authentic experience they won't soon forget. We can achieve that by telling them stories about everyday life in Split, incorporating lesser-known tidbits or talking about cultural quirks. However, we also think it is important to engage all of the guests' senses, which is why we included places like Split's Green market, a chocolate store, Vestibule (with a cappella group usually present), Matejuška pier (where locals socialize).

Inclusions

What's included

  • Free tasting of several locally sourced products included.

Itinerary

  1. The heart of the palace, a lively square that in summertime becomes an open theater.

    10 min

  2. At the open market you get to taste some of the local culinary products.

    15 min

  3. The imperial palace had four entrances and on this tour we cover all of them. The Golden gate was the main entrance, used by the emperor to enter his home for the first time more than 1700 years ago.

    10 min

  4. Gregory of Nin is an important figure in Croatian history and his statue was made by celebrated Croatian artist Ivan Meštrović. However, that's not the primary reason why people stop to take a photo with him. The legend says that if you rub his giant toe, your wish will come true!

    5 min

  5. Charming little square adorned by Mediterranean houses and a Venetian fort. The statue of Marko Marulić, the father of Croatian literature, stands proudly in it's center.

About Split

Split is a busy Dalmatian port built within and around a Roman emperor's palace, with ferries to some of Croatia's loveliest islands.

Diocletian's Palace, built around the turn of the fourth century as the emperor's retirement home, is the old town itself: its walls, cellars and courtyards hold homes, shops and cafés. The Peristyle, the colonnaded heart, leads to the Cathedral of St Domnius, once the emperor's mausoleum, and its bell tower gives views over the rooftops.

Top-ranked sights in Split: Budikovac Island (Veliki Budikovac), Blue Lagoon Croatia (Krknjasi Bay), Peristyle Square (Peristil).
