Full description

Travel back in time on a guided walking tour of Split and explore 1,700 years of the city’s history, from the construction of the Diocletian Palace in 305 CE, to its place as Croatia's second largest city. Uncover sights like the Saint Domnius Cathedral along the way. 

Meet your guide at the Golden Gate of the Diocletian Palace and marvel at the remains of an ancient palace from the Roman Empire which now forms about half the Old Town of Split. Stop to view its open colonnades in the palace's central Peristyle square.

Continue to the impressive Saint Domnius Cathedral, which is thought to be the oldest Catholic cathedral in the world that remains in use in its original form. Hear about the story of Gregory of Nin by his statue in Giardin Park.

Stroll along the Riva promenade to admire views of Marjan Hill and the Adriatic Sea. Finish your tour where it began at the Golden Gate.

The tour of Old Town Split was wonderful. So glad we did it as it gave us a totally different appreciation for the city. Jacob our guide was wonderful and gave us so much history about the city, surrounding area and Croatia. A definite must if visiting Split for the first time. We also really enjoyed the wine tasting afterwards.

It was quite apparent that guide was super passionate about his beautiful home - Dubrovnik. He told us lot of fun and interesting stories about the city that we throughly enjoyed. Being a history buff I personally sort of loved his 30 mins of monologue of how the city came up and the history behind it, right at the start. I would highly recommend the tour and the guide.

Really enjoyable, we normally just take in the sights independently but decided at the last minute to book on. Natasa our guide was very informative, & proud of her heritage & city. We gained a good knowledge of the history of the old town which we wouldn’t have done without our guide.
