Split Walking Tour from Cruise Port Tips, History and Essentials

This is not a tour about the past. It’s about the present that lives inside the past. We’ll walk through Diocletian’s Palace and the Old Town—not to recite history, but to meet the people who carry it. This tour is about the pulse of Split today, told through voices that rarely make it into the history books. We’ll step into a working bakery, a filigree workshop where silver threads become heirlooms. We’ll walk through streets where one of the oldest synagogues in Europe still stands. We’ll pass the local Muslim community, where faith and daily life meet quietly. And as we move, you’ll see Diocletian’s Palace for what it really is: Not a monument but a neighbourhood. This is a city that never stopped being lived in. The stones are old, but the stories are ongoing.

What are people saying about Split

Lindsay_H, Jun 2026

Great tour

This tour is a great way to spend a day from split! The park is beautiful and not very far from Split. The tour is well organized and the guide Richard was great. He was super friendly and knowledgeable about the park, split, and Croatia. They rearranged our day a bit to avoid large crowds and it worked perfectly, they will do their best to make sure you get the best experience possible. As a solo traveller I found it easy to socialize with the other people on the tour, but even if i did not it would have been a great experience.

Split Walking Tour with Professor of History

Jolanta_F, Jun 2026

Wonderful walking tour of Split

Our walking tour of Split was one of the highlights of our trip. Led by a history professor with an extraordinary depth of knowledge, the tour brought the city’s fascinating past to life in a way that was both engaging and easy to follow. From the origins of Diocletian’s Palace to Split’s development through Roman, Venetian, Austrian, and modern Croatian periods, every stop was filled with interesting stories, historical context, and little-known facts that made the city even more captivating. The tour was exceptionally well organized, informative, and paced perfectly. What truly set it apart was the guide’s ability to connect historical events with the places we were standing, giving us a much deeper appreciation of Split and its unique character. As a bonus, he also pointed out several locations used during the filming of the acclaimed TV series Game of Thrones, sharing behind-the-scenes facts and explaining how parts of Split were transformed for the show. This added another fascinating dimension to the tour and was especially enjoyable for fans of the series. Beyond the history, he generously shared valuable local recommendations, including authentic restaurants, hidden gems, and other must-see locations throughout the area. His insider tips helped us make the most of our time in Split. If you’re looking for an educational, entertaining, and enriching introduction to the city, this tour is an absolute must. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to understand the true history and culture of Split beyond the typical tourist experience. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

From Split: Krka Waterfalls, Food & Wine Tasting Tour

Kendall_L, Jun 2026

Great day of nature, exploring, and wine!

Antonia was an amazing, knowledgeable, energetic guide for this tour! She had great vibes and shared a lot of Croatian history with us. I enjoyed the national park/waterfall, and the ability to explore at my own pace without the group. It was very hot, but the walk is suitable for all ages/levels. I’m glad wore sneakers. The stop in Skradin was brief but nice, I recommend Kala Food and Bar for a burger for lunch. I opted in for the wine tasting, where we tried 4 wines (and the option to add charcuterie for an additional cost). The wine tasting was a nice way to end the day. Pick up, drop off, and transportation throughout the day were seamless, so shout out to the driver as well (Yosef?)! I recommend this tour, it was fun, informative, laid back, and good value.

Great tour highlighting the best of Split's history

Great tour giving you a little history on Split without it being so long! The walking involved was pretty easy with very few steps to climb throughout the tour. However, Split was very crowded when I went, which was late May so do please make sure to stay with your group. Highly recommend this tour as the city is quite beautiful and the tour told a great story about the city. Special shoutout to our guide Marijan

You get an in-depth...

You get an in-depth walkthrough of the GOT scenes filmed throughout the Split Old Town HOWEVER it is not a full tour of the cellars - very Game of Thrones focused and you get to nerd out about the books!! MATE (pronounced Ma-teh not mate) was the most enthusiastic and engaging tour guide, and made us feel super energised by the end of the tour. His passion for the subject was infectious and we were tempted to book on to the history tour with him as well!!!

Amazing tour! We learned so much that we never would have if we had explored on our own. As always, the walking tour provides a great foundation for a visit to a city. Mario was terrific. Knowledgeable and he was willing to share his experiences to answer questions that were outside the realm of the tour!

Blue Lagoon, Borkko Beach & Šolta with lunch & drinks from Split

Joanne_B, Sep 2025

We did a lot of research...

We did a lot of research before deciding on this trip and it lived up to all of our expectations. We wanted a larger boat, which this was. It had three levels... lowest fully covered, middle both outside and inside and top level was a sun deck with lounge chairs. A light breakfast was supplied and lunch. Ample time at each of three stops... two for swimming near the shore and one for walking around. The boat was very smooth and allowed plenty of space for walking around. And the crew were all friendly and helpful. Highest marks for this voyage.
