Knowledgeable and insightful - Ante was a fantastic tour guide. Born and lived all his life he gives a great insight of the history of Split and it's part in Croatian history. We actually got a lot more information that expected, due to his extensive knowledge. Thank you Ante!

A Fascinating Journey Through Time! - This tour was the absolute highlight of our time in Split! Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, passionate, and engaging—bringing the rich history of Diocletian’s Palace to life with stories, legends, and fun facts we never would have discovered on our own. Walking through the ancient stone streets, we felt like we were stepping back in time. The pace was perfect, and the group size allowed for easy interaction and questions. We appreciated the thoughtful mix of historical insight and cultural context, from Roman architecture to Game of Thrones trivia. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Split—whether you're a history buff or just curious. Truly unforgettable!

Brilliant & first thing to do when you arrive in split - Due to a bank holiday, the tour changed from 13.00 to 11.30 & the company messaged with notice & due to arriving that morning made allowance if we couldn’t make it to give a refund. Jakov was knowledgable, passionate & interesting. Really enjoyed the history of split & would highly recommend to do as the first thing before anything else. Really enjoyed this walking tour, well worth the money.
