The tour starts on foot inside Diocletian's Palace β€” Peristyle, underground cellars, cathedral, the narrow alleys where Roman street plans still dictate the layout. Your licensed guide covers the history of the palace and the city, at your own pace. Then you transfer to a comfortable air-conditioned vehicle to reach the parts of Split that most visitors on foot never see.

The drive covers Bačvice beach, Gripe Fortress, Poljud Stadium (home of Hajduk Split), the Vidilica viewpoint on Marjan Hill, Sustipan clifftop park, and the West Coast promenade. Priced per group (up to 6 people). Cruise port pick-up and drop-off available on request.

100/10
I would rate this tour 100/10. With little time we had in Split this tour was the best decision. We got to see and learn so much about Split. And the coffee break with a view over the entire city was just wow. Thank you for a lovely day Lucija.

Lucija was very knowledgeable of the history of the city and the country! She showed us and talked about a lot of things we would not have known or looked for! She is also very funny and entertaining so we enjoyed every moment.

One of the best guides we've ever had
Lucija was an amazing guide. Friendly, informative, enthusiastic. She clearly loves Split. She adjusted her pace to accommodate us and pointed out the best spots for photos. We had a lovely rest at a small cafe with the most beautiful view. You can't go wrong with this tour. Book it!
