Review of Split’s 90-minute Diocletian’s Palace walking tour, with guide quality, stops, value, meeting details, and practical booking advice.

“We booked this tour last minute for September 24 after our cruise tour was cancelled. What a stroke of luck! Our guide was so much fun. She actually lives in the walled city with her family and knows the city and its history well ( I think her name is Jane?) She managed the tour well from start to finish beginning with calling in another guide when the tour was overbooked. She had a great sense of humor and at the end of the tour she gave us directions to a neighborhood where we found an excellent local restaurant for lunch.”

“This private tour was one of the highlights of our trip! Jelena Vrancic our guide was incredibly informative and showed us the intricacies of history that can be found within Diocletians Palace. Visiting the synagogue and meeting Albert who works to share the space with others and to educate people on the Jewish people who lived throughout history in Split was a unique and special aspect of our time on the tour. Additionally, Jelena was witty and fun - this is definitely not a dry boring tour! I highly recommend this tour and Jelena or one of the other guides who work with her.”
