This was a lovely and relaxed tour, our guides were super, local lassies, with lots of knowledge of the history of Split, the palace and life within the walls. A short bus trip to Trojir with lots of information on the area, time to explore the town as well. Highly recommend.

Fully enjoyed this tour. Guide Ivana was very knowledgeable and a great communicator. She was funny and entertaining. It was a long « half day » tour. 930-330 with a fair bit of walking but not strenuous at all. Split and Trogir were both beautiful and we loved the tour.

    Tour great but …

    Shandria_H, Sept 2026
    Tour did not accurately describe the amount of walking … was not correct 5min turned into 25min and older people were not comfortable

    Response from Host, Sept 2026

    Dear. The only possible way to explore UNESCO old towns is by foot. Unfortunately, 1700+ years old cites do not have streets for vehicles, escalators and elevators. There is simply no legal way to see something this old without walking.

    Good tours , Antonia is a super guide.

    Ebird526, Aug 2026
    There is no transportation back to your ship. Need to hire Tik tuk. The guide paid for our tuk tuk. Our guide Antonia was a book of knowledge combined with a great personality!

    Response from Host, Aug 2026

    Dear, Thank you for your kind words. We do transport guests back to cruise ship. Instead of taking the bus for 45min of terrible traffic on a Saturday afternoon in the busiest passenger port in Europe we paid your tuk tuk to drive you back in 5min. All of our guests have a choice of being driven back to port or staying the old town after the tour.

    Nasty Croatian tour guide who showed up late for her job as a tour operator

    Trish_M, Aug 2026
    The tour operator was late. We were told to meet at the cruise port and look for a purple umbrella. They also changed the time from 10:30 to 9:30 and we were told to arrive early so we showed up at 9:15. There were other tour operators with umbrellas who kept asking us if our tour operator had showed up yet. It was very hot outside with little or no shade. It was a small tour for 15 people and had the operator showed up on time we all could have been in the bus not sweating in the hot sun. When she finally showed up late and was nasty to my husband. We decided not to take the tour.

    Response from Host, Aug 2026

    Dear, we are sorry that you had a bad experience but what you just wrote is completely not true. First of all, you did not show up on time, you were early on a wrong location. Secondly, we changed the time from 10.30 to 9.30 because your cruise ship change timing and you would not be able to make it on time back. Thirdly, it's hot, yes August in Croatia is pretty much know for that and us picking you up in the port instead of you walking 20min to the meeting point was our good will, and after all of that, you are the one who refused to take a tour and we have refunded you anyway, which we did not have to and obviously shouldn't have done. If other 13 people were there and 2 of you didn't, maybe it was not everybody else who was wrong. Kind regards from sunny Split!

    Good information, aggressive Guide

    Ruben_R, Aug 2026
    Our tour guide, Ivana, is very knowledgeable about Split since she was born and raised there. She gave us quite good information about Split and Trogir, and has a perfect English. Our only but is that she is very aggressive. Has a loud voice (seems like yelling). She made it clear she didn’t care about some customers that were late or not showing up, rather than saying politely that there were a couple missing. She also had a loud discussion with another tour guide that “shushed” her (she was very loud). We as customers don’t want to hear her fighting with other tour guides. She must remember that we are customers coming here to have a good time. Not to mention when she said “ah ha! I found the guilty guy driving this bike! I know the license plates and now I know where he lives!” We should not be involved in any aggressive behavior during our vacations.

    Split Croatia

    Les_B, Aug 2026
    What a great knowledge tour Frans was amazing and very good In-depth into the history ! Would come again

    What's not to like? Great Split trip experience

    Linda_W, Aug 2026
    Very interesting tour, with a knowledgeable guide who had great with great personal skills and good english. Also loved the small group, just four of us - so got to know two new people and our guide allowed for timing, destination and activity chioce - which was perfect. Resulting in a visit to the chair lift experience - which proved a superb suggestion from Dennis and really provided great views, especially of our now 'tiny' cruise ship. The whole Split expereince was excellent and still gave us time to look round Split itself - would thoroughly recommend (in my 70's) as would my grand-daughter in her 20's. Very reasonably priced too - whats not to like?

    ​Wonderful tour with a lovely local guide!

    Christos_L, Aug 2026
    ​We had a great time exploring with Ivana! She is incredibly knowledgeable and made the tour a true pleasure for us. To top it all off, we found a perfect spot to take a dip in the sea right after the tour. Thank you so much, Ivana—highly recommended!

    Our tour guide Ivan was...

    Edward_C, Jul 2026
    Our tour guide Ivan was very good at touring us around, informing us, and keeping the group in order. He made the tour interesting and enjoyable.

    Very informative.

    Marty_S, Jul 2026
    Ivan was absolutely amazing. He was so informative. The weather was hot, but he allowed water breaks and free time in Trogir. All in all a vert good tour.

    Room for Improvement

    Cristina_F, Jul 2026
    We had a tour last June 19, 2026. The tour started okay, but the transfer to Split was chaotic. Instructions were unclear, and half of the group got confused. Numerous clients were left behind in the bus and had to chase the guides who were doing the Split walking tour. During the chaotic moment, I personally tried to contact the guide, but got no response. We were unhappy, of course about the situation. When we rejoined the group we were singled out by the guide and she made a joke about us. It was not funny at all. There is definitely a large room for improvement in terms of communication and clarity of instructions.

    Response from Host, Jul 2026

    Dear, we are sorry for the trouble, but the information gives was really clear. If you want to be dropped of in the old town you have to get of the van, if you want to be driven back to the ship stay on the bus. Not really sure what is unclear in that info.

    Amazing

    Iryna_T, Jul 2026
    This tour was amazing! Had a great time visiting Trogir and Split. Beautiful sceneries, views and knowledgeable guide Antonia made our trip very special.

    Excellent guide!

    Kimberly_S, Jul 2026
    Ivana was an incredible tour guide! From the moment we booked until the very last minute, communication was clear and easy, Ivana has so much positive energy, she is incredibly knowledgeable and her personal anecdotes made the tour come alive.

    It’s is a relaxed way to tour. The tour guides were very good. Antonia was exceptional. If you have a group of kids with you, be sure to request Antonia.

    Perfect timing with cruise

    Kapil_G, Jul 2026
    Good tour for limited time. Got to see and learn more about the palace and travel to trogir and learn a little there

    Walking tour Trogir and Split

    Darlene_C, Jul 2026
    The pace was good. Mario managed to keep our group in the shade as much as possible sparing us from intense sun and heat. He was very knowledgeable and passionate about his Country. Only issue was while in the vehicle people in the back couldn’t hear the questions and responses going on up front. He needed a small microphone to project conversation to the back of the vehicle. However, I thoroughly enjoyed the entire tour and Mario very much

    Super tour of Split

    Helen_L, Jul 2026
    This was a lovely and relaxed tour, our guides were super, local lassies, with lots of knowledge of the history of Split, the palace and life within the walls. A short bus trip to Trojir with lots of information on the area, time to explore the town as well. Highly recommend.

    Day tour in Trogir

    Orlando_D, Jul 2026
    Ivan was our guide and did an excellent job. He was very professional, helpful and provided many details.on the history of Split Centre and Trogir. I HIGHLY recommend the tour and specially with Ivan.

    Great tour of Split and Trogir

    Loy_P, Jun 2026
    We enjoyed our time in Trogir and Split very much. The free time in Trogir was just enough to see things on our own and do a little shopping. The transportation was a bus that was clean and the driver did a great job. There were 31 people in our group and 2 tour guides. They divided us up so we had smaller numbers with each guide. Both guides were very knowledgeable and friendly. Our time in Split was also good. Lots of history here to be shared. We enjoyed walking thru the bazaar after. My only negative comment would be that the tour was a little long on a really hot day. That’s no one’s fault though! We enjoyed our time!

    Tour guide great - bus was hot.

    Mary_G, Jun 2026
    Great tour by Elena but in the 2.5 hours that we spent in Trogir - tour bus operator left the bus off and parked in sun. When we got back on those in back were subject to extremely high temps. It took 15 minutes of driving before hot air was no longer coming out vents. He should have started the bus at least 15-20 minutes before we boarded to allow time for the entire bus to cool.

    Perfect one day in Split

    Malinda_H, Jun 2026
    Such a wonderful tour. Our guide was informative without overloading us on historical minutiae. He was humorous and very proud of his country. The tour was exactly as described. Pickup and drop off were very prompt.

    factual and fun

    Anne_H, Jun 2026

    PAM_W, Jun 2026
    What a great tour to Trogir and around Split we had with Antonia. She was a wealth of knowledge, kind and very engaging. Highly recommend. Thanks 🙂

    A very interesting tour...

    Stephanie_M, Jun 2026
    A very interesting tour covering Split and Trogir. Both are definitely worth a visit. Our guides Ivana and Antonia were excellent

    Great tour

    Rosemary_W, Jun 2026
    Antonia was a great guide and very knowledgeable. Trogir was a stunning place to visit and Split was very interesting.

    Easy and informative tour of Split Palace and Trogir

    Steven_M, Jun 2026
    Good communication beforehand on meeting location time. Unfortunately minibus was late due to the traffic. Started the tour in Trogir to make sure we were back in Split and not far from cruise port for ship departure. Very informative tour guide. Both the Palace and Trogir well worth a visit. Personally would prefer a smaller group but still a great tour

    Split and Trogir

    Alan_M, May 2026
    This was a great trip with a fantastic and very knowledgeable guide. We went first to Trogir (as traffic was going to be bad early in Split) and it is a delightful, pretty town where we sampled the local delicacy, Rafielo. Then to Split where we were taken round the Palace with our guide explaining all the parts of it. Certainly a trip not to be missed

    Ivana and Antonia were amazing

    Gabriela_D, May 2026
    Ivana and Antonia were AMAZING guides full of energy and very authentic which is always appreciated. They are very well versed and passionate in the history of their cities. They answered many questions we had. Would recommend wholeheartedly.
