Amazing tour of Split old town - Maria was a wonderfully knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide. She managed to keep us and our 3 teen children engaged (not easy). She was able to bring the old city of Split alive for us.

Fun Facts, Photos, and Guides! - We actually did two tours - first a private tour of the Fortress and Stella Croatia (for the oils, cremes, honey, liquors…). You must see Klis and Mario shared so many details about this incredible fortress. Then we met Jakovic in town for the Diocletian Palace/City walk tour (about an hour). Our kids cracked up learning about how they “disposed of waste back then”! Great guides, facts, photos and fun. Tanja helped us organize and met us at our apartment (super convenient).

Great tour with historian - We took this tour with our 6 month old baby and couldn’t be happier. Our guide, who is a historian, could answer even our most specific questions. He was flexible, knowledgeable and made this tour one of the highlights of our vacation.

Fabulous! There were just 2 of us on... - <p>Fabulous! There were just 2 of us on this tour. Our superb Guide, Darko, provided a wealth of historical information while we walked. We had ample opportunity to stop and take photos throughout the tour. Darko also answered many questions about current events and culture. We learned a lot about the history of Split and had a great experience walking around the town.</p>

Wort walking tour ever - The worst tour ever. We decided to quit the tour after 40 min sat in a stone listening to the guide his political, social, ideology versión of Croatia, Bosnia, Serbia etc. We felt completely cheated. We paid a good money to receive a very personal speech instead of enjoying a walking tour with explanation of the city, arquitecture, history, monuments, etc. We strongly disreccommend this company as an option in Split.
