Great Tour

Michael_C, May 2024

Marta was a great guide with additional tips about our stay, beyond the typical tour guide info (she is a local).

Fabulous! There were just 2 of us on...

Pamela H, Jun 2016

Fabulous! There were just 2 of us on this tour. Our superb Guide, Darko, provided a wealth of historical information while we walked. We had ample opportunity to stop and take photos throughout the tour. Darko also answered many questions about current events and culture. We learned a lot about the history of Split and had a great experience walking around the town.
