Lea was an excellent tour guide. I would encourage anyone going to Split to take this tour on the first day. Lea was very knowledgeable and provided in depth history of the palace and surrounding areas. She also provided great suggestions on places to eat and places to relax while sipping on our favorite drinks. Thank You Lea.

Thank you so much for this beautiful review! It was such a pleasure exploring Diocletian’s Palace and the old town of Split with you. I’m really happy to hear that you enjoyed the history, the local recommendations, and the relaxed atmosphere of the tour. I always say the best time to take a tour is at the beginning of your stay, so you can truly enjoy the city afterward — from hidden food spots to relaxing corners for your favorite drinks 😊 Thank you again for your kind words, and I hope you continue enjoying Croatia and making wonderful memories!

Welcome to Split!

Great tour! Our guide, Lea, was lovely, engaging and knowledgeable! A perfect mix of ancient and modern Split history. It was a great introduction to Split (even though I had broken my foot before the tour and had difficulty walking)! We also appreciated that Lea made an extra effort to show us the synagogue and share some interesting facts about the local Jewish community. Highly recommend!!

Response from Host, Jun 2025

Dear Laura, thank you so much for taking time to write the review! I enjoyed touring with you and your husband. Hope your leg is completely healed! Kind regards, Lea

Beautiful introduction to Split!

Erika_G, Jun 2025
Lea was an excellent tour guide. We did this tour the first day of our visit to Split which gave us a great overview of the city for the rest of our stay. Lea knew a lot of the history and answered all of our questions. She was friendly and accommodating, meeting us at our hotel to start the tour. She showed us so much in the 2 hours we had together. She did not rush and stayed extra time to give recommendations. I highly recommend getting a tour. Split is small and easy to navigate but if you do not have a guide you do not understand what you are looking at. Lea, thank you for a fantastic introduction to Split, we hope to visit again!

Response from Host, Jun 2025

Dear Erika, Thank you so much for this wonderful review! I hope you are enjoying Croatia and that you will visit again. Kind regards, Lea
