Small Group Walking Tour of Split for First Time Visitors
My tour is designed to give first-time visitors an engaging and easy-to-follow introduction to the city's history, culture, and daily life. We visit key landmarks, including the Golden Gate, Peristyle, Jupiter’s Temple, the Cathedral of Saint Domnius, the famous Riva promenade and many other important sights in Split Old Town. But this isn’t just a history lesson, it’s a relaxed, immersive experience where guests get real insights into Split’s past and present. As a guide originally from Bosnia who has lived in Split for years, I offer a broader regional perspective, connecting Split’s history to the wider Balkans. My small-group tours allow for meaningful conversations, and after the tour, I provide personalized recommendations on where to eat, what to see, and local experiences to try. This tour is perfect for travelers who want an informative but laid-back introduction to Split, whether solo, with friends, or as a family.
