Great tour with a very good guide

Michael_L, Sep 2025

We loved our tour with Mirjana. She was very knowledgeable, interesting and very responsive. Our time getting an intro to Split and its history was terrific.

Fantastic Tour and Highly Recommended!

Jennifer_A, Jul 2024

We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Mirjana, she was absolutely excellent! We were a large group traveling with teenagers and adults and she catered the tour to engage all age groups! The information she shared about Croatian history was carried with us throughout our entire stay and helped to bring a historical city to life. It was a highlight of our trip to Split. I couldn't recommend her more highly.

Split with a Local

Andrea_P, Jul 2024

Mirjana was AMAZING! She was so accommodating and was a joy to be around. She was incredibly knowledgeable about all things Split - both historical information and current cultural issues. We had a blast on the tour, and had a wonderful time sitting down for coffee with her as well!

Mirjana is the perfect tour guide for a personalized experience.

Ronald_A, Oct 2022

Taking a tour with Mirjana was just like wandering around an ancient city with a long lost best friend. She is charming and engaging and instantly made us feel welcomed into Split and brought the city to life. She was able to weave stories of old into the modern surroundings we see today. We also had great conversation and left knowing so much more about Split. We had an amazing time and wish we could've spent a full day traversing the Old Town and Palace streets with her by our side.

Great Split Tour with an amazing Storyteller!!

MaraZuzel_C, Jun 2022

Great experience, Mirjana was amazing, a great storyteller, she made arrangements for us after some confusion about pick up, facilitated luggage arrangements and had good recommendations for coffee and restaurants. Our experience was tailored for our needs. I will highly recommend her.
