I cannot speak more highly of our tour with Darko! We had been to Split before but got so much more out of this personalized tour. Darko is smart, knowledgeable, and interesting! The tour was full of hidden gems, tasty treats, personal insights, history, culture, and even a great recommendation for local cuisine for lunch! You will not regret booking Darko!Experience Split with a Pro

Linda was the consummate professional before, during and after our tour. She made sure to address our wishes right from the beginning of the tour. She obviously knew all the relevant history, but the best part was how it was delivered. She told so many stories and those tend to stick better rather than just dates and facts. She knew exactly where she wanted to take us, so we were not wandering around aimlessly. As we explored the palace inside and out, she also pointed out places to eat and shop. She had stories or reasons to go to these shops and restaurants as well, which helped in our later decisions of where to buy unique gifts and eat amazing food. Linda also had input about our next stop and we will be sure to follow her suggestions again. She knew where all the best places to take photos were and took many for us as well. A private tour with Linda will be memorable and leave you feeling you have truly made a new friend! We only hope she feels the same way about us.We LOVED so much about this tour of Split!

Darko was a fantastic tour guide! He worked with us to customise our tour with only 4 hours to spare before an international flight! We got to see the beautiful view and medieval fortress of Klis, and were blown away by the amazing crystal cave that is a well known secret to the locals. Darko speaks fluent English and is so knowledgeable of the local history and culture. I definitely recommend Darko to be your next guide 🤩Excellent private tour with Darko!!

I cannot recommend this tour enough! Darko was amazing knowing all the best spots. It was worth the cost for a private tour as he was able to cater it to our dietary preferences, and even arrange some unique experiences to make the most of our time. He also shared some brief history along the way giving us more than just a good tour. It was the best way to see the city and it was clear he had some great connections with the locals also giving us recommendations for the rest if our trip. It was an incredible experience and we are so grateful we did it!!Absolutely the best!!!

Jodko was an excellent guide. He spoke clear English. He had maps, plans and pictures with him to show us which explained things well. He knows his subject and he brought Diocletian's palace in Split to life for us. Well worth having his services, and we recommend him Fun with Josko

Our day in Split with Josko was perfect. He has extensive knowledge of the political and cultural history of Croatia and the entire region, and he's an excellent communicator. He's a great ambassador for his country. Within minutes he felt like an old friend. We learned more about Split and the Diocletian palace in a few hours with him than we would have in several days of blundering about on our own. There were several cruise ships in port that day, so by mid-morning the crowd of tourists swelled. Josko skillfully conducted us around the crowds to avoid lines and ensure that we saw everything we wanted to see as well as lots more we wouldn't have known to look for. He also guided us to an excellent sidewalk cafe for lunch where he helped us sample Croatian food and wines. We couldn't have asked for a better tour experience.A perfect day exploring Split

Deborah was very kind and outgoing. She provided us with a great combination of history and local food. We went to places that we would never have found on our own. We loved sitting down at the end with her to enjoy a delicious meal at a local restaurant and felt like we had made a friend by the end. Excellent tour with focus on local cuisine

Linda was a great guide, in particular for our 13 and 16-year old kids, who are 'less interested' in the historical facts. She found the right balance of facts to share, interesting stories, and activities to include ( gelato!) to keep our kids engaged for the most part. We also learned a lot about the Old Town area, and got a great sense for the town. Thank you!Great tour for our whole family

We had a fantastic tour with our guide Maja in Split, who did an excellent job combining history with Game of Thrones locations. We specifically asked to see filming spots from the show, and our guide came prepared with a binder full of photos from the series and behind-the-scenes shots. This made it easy to compare the real locations with the scenes filmed in and around Diocletian's Palace. The tour was very detailed—we explored the ancient Roman palace while learning about its real history, as well as discovering key GoT sites, like Daenerys' dragon chambers. The mix of factual history and fun behind-the-scenes stories made the experience incredibly engaging. Highly recommend this tour to both Game of Thrones fans and history lovers! Our guide was knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and made the whole experience unforgettable. At the end of the tour Maja even helped us pick out a very good restaurant. We couldn't have asked for more. Fiction & facts included in excellent tour

Joško was a wonderful guide...especially given the hot weather!! He was thoughtful in trying to keep us as comfortable as possible in the heat during our walking tour. He opened our eyes and minds to the rich history and nuances of Split. He was engaging, open and honest in his responses to our questions. We aren't fans of "typical" tourist experiences, but Joško made the tour of the historic palace and old town a joy and a unique experience. Definitely check him out if you are in Split and want a more intimate tour experience of this wonderful city.Great Split Experience!

Joško was great! His stories and wide knowledge really helped us see how Split changed through the ages and especially how the Diocletian Palace and the Old Town came to be! We learned so much more than we would have done just looking around by ourselves or with guidebooks (which only tell half the story at most) and he even managed to keep a thirteen year old and an eighteen year old engaged for over two hours. A great recommendation for dinner rounded off the trip. Thank you Joško!How to bring Split to life!

We were on our final day of a 12-day cruise, and Maja provided us a lovely finish to our trip. She walked us through the Palace and explained so many things. She took great pictures of us, so that we would have wonderful memories of the day. Our tour included a treat and we asked if perhaps we could find a place for a local beer instead of ice cream - and she found a wonderful place tucked into a quiet, little square. She was very accommodating to swap out the treat for a beer - what a nice surprise! Nice guided walk through Split

Upon arrival in Split, we had a fantastic 2-hour tour of Split’s Old Town with Darko. I was traveling with my 80-year-old father and my sister, and Darko made the experience enjoyable and accessible for all of us. He is incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and open-minded, and he tailored the tour to suit our pace and interests. It was the perfect blend of fascinating historical insights and stories about modern-day life in Split. I can highly recommend booking a tour with Darko – it truly enhanced our visit.
