    Our guide, Stella, was excellent. Her knowledge of the palace was very good. The tour was a good length and covered a lot of history in this beautiful location. Highly recommend

  • 5Split walking tour w/ Paula

    Our guide Paula was very knowledgeable and well versed in Split history. She made the tour very interesting. As our group was fairly large and there were many other tour groups around, at times it became difficult to hear Paula. Other groups had assisted hearing devices which perhaps would allow everyone to hear better. Still, the tour was very informative!

    Ante was a knowledgeable and engaging guide with a deep understanding of the Diocletian palace and its architecture, regional politics, geography, and cultural influences. He answered all questions thoroughly and was passionate and honest about the palace and its history. Outstanding tour.

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).
