Perfect Split Tour - Super tour of Split with a knowledgeable and friendly guide. We also had a great seafood lunch in a lovely restaurant in the middle of the old town. Our guide knew all the history of the palace and the markets. Split is a lovely town and a must see.

GREAT Way to Experience Split! - Wow! Totally worth the price and a great way to visit Split! I thought this was just a “taste” of Split, but we had a complete meal, including a glass of wine. The PRIVATE tour by our amazing guide Vedrana was insightful, educational, entertaining and fun. She is a wealth of knowledge and gave us inside information. We bypassed crowds and saw the inner workings of Diocletian’s palace. She was simply delightful. The dinner was one of our best in Croatia and the gelato was absolutely to die for. The best gelato I’ve ever had, even in Italy. This curated tour was well worth the money, and I would highly recommend it!

Perfect combination of history, local stories and great food - This was a perfect way to start our trip in Split. Ivan was an amazing tour guide who provided lots of history and local information about split. Coordination for meeting and what to expect on the tour was excellent. The information provided was just the right amount of detail and the food/dinner for us was some of the best we had on our trip. Ivan also provided many recommendation for the remainder of our trip.

Book with Luca if you can! - Our party of 4 were picked up promptly at our hotel. We picked up Luca en route and off we went! Our tour was wonderful- very informative, easy to ask questions. The food selections were terrific but even better was the explanations and sense of the Croatian culture Luca expressed! We had a better understanding of local foods at the end of our tour.

How to spend a wonderful day in Split for the 1st time! - Family of 4 with 2 kids (ages 7 and 10). Booked via Tours by Locals. Ivan filled in last minute for Kristina but was very informative and engaging; very good with the kids. It was an absolute pleasure to spend the day with him. We had to skip the fish market itself bc it was closed (Sunday + public holiday) so important to be mindful about that when booking. However, all of our explorations and the food we ate were great. He definitely curated the experience to our liking, which was nice. Our whole Croatia experience made us want to come back and explore more someday!

Wonderful Way to Spend the Afternoon in Split - Wonderful afternoon spent with our guide Ivan. Knowledgeable and friendly with a great sense of humor. You could tell he truly loves his country and Split - as he should. Croatia is an amazing country! His gelato recommendation was 100% and we went back every day to try another flavor. His choice of restaurant was perfect and the food was top notch.

Amazing gastronomic experience - One of the best experiences of traveling we’ve ever had. Imagine being led around town by your friend who has lived here all their life and knows all the best places to eat, what to order, and how best to experience it. Our guide Luca told us all the local delicacies and took us on a gastronomic tour we will always remember. Highly recommend early on in your trip to Split to get the lay of the land and background of history and culture. One of our top experiences of all time.
