A Taste of the Diocletian Palace - Our guide was lots of fun and very knowledgeable. We moved at a quick pace which meant we could cover a lot of ground. The tour was only 8 people which made it much more enjoyable than being part of a large herd. We went back later on our own to wander the streets, after having a good introduction with the tour.

The Perfect Way to Discover Split Old Town - Our family of four, including two teenagers, thoroughly enjoyed this 90 minute walking tour of Split Old Town. It was a small group with only seven people, which made the experience feel much more personal. Our guide, Slavko, was outstanding - passionate, energetic and incredibly knowledgeable. His enthusiasm was infectious, and he kept all of us, including our teenagers, engaged from start to finish. The 90 minute duration was just right. We explored the fascinating streets and public areas within Diocletian's Palace while learning about Emperor Diocletian, the palace's colourful past and how it has evolved into the vibrant heart of modern Split. If you're looking for an engaging introduction to Split and its remarkable heritage, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this tour. Thank you, Slavko, for making it such a memorable experience! At the end of the tour he offered suggestions on places to eat and/or grab coffee.

Funny Tour around Diokletianpalace - We went on a tour with Stella, who was a funny humorous guide, who interacted a lot. Would prefer a tour a bit longer and with a few more local stories, but totally would recommend do go with Stella.
