Hidden gem - We hadn’t even heard of the museum before visiting Kliss fortress and getting entry included in the ticket. Such a great find and worth visiting for anyone who loves food! Starting with a tour and visit to their small museum you finish up in the shop which has lots of lovely products to sample and buy. We visited the restaurant which has set menus showcasing their own produce which was fabulous and then went back to wander through the gardens and then to the shop. There are toilets and free parking on site.

Fantastic little place! - Fantastic little place! Loved exploring the garden and traditional village, the tour was expertly guided and very educational. A lovely restaurant on site too where you can try natural juices straight from the garden.

Hidden gem - My daughter and I had a day to fill and found this little gem. We took an Uber from Split (20 minutes) and enjoyed the tour, olive oil tasting, gift shop, and restaurant. We really enjoyed everything. The staff was very friendly. The area with red checkered table cloths that we saw in the pictures was not open. I believe it is for high season. We also didn't do olive oil tasting in blue cups as shown in the pictures but in plastic cups. If you want to eat in their restaurant, you have to order a three course meal which we did. It was tasty.

A must when in Split! - This venue, tour and staff are fantastic! We learned so much, the grounds and facilities are beautiful, clean and a joy! Our guide, Ines, the hostess, Draginc ( sp) and tasting tour guide, Bonne were all very knowledgeable, fun and engaging. We have been on other educational tours ( wine tastings, breweries, chocolate tastings as well as olives) and Stella Crotia is absolutely one of the BEST in any country!

Worth a visit if you go to Klis - We arrived and joined a tour of the museum. The guide was very informative and we learned about the work they do there. They make a lot of jams, oils and more and so the shop was busy! You could try before you bought and the honey with strawberries was amazing. The garden was lovely and very nicely laid out with lots of lavender - and bees, of course! We tasted the oils but did not have an educational tasting..... Sadly, the restaurant was closed due to an emergency, but we enjoyed the visit.

Interesting tour - Interesting place but the main emphasis is getting you to purchase their products. Tour is great for learning about the industry.

Not a museum but a visit to an oil Enterprise selling on site - If you are looking for a real immersion in the olive oil manufacturing process, this tour may not fully meet your expectations. The Enterprise's main objective is clearly focused on the local production and sale of quality products. While the guided tour (in quick English) provides an overview of the process, it proceeds at a fairly rapid pace, leaving little room for further technical details. The guide seems focused on one specific goal: to get you quickly to the shop where the products are offered for sale. That said, if your goal is to briefly discover the manufacturing process and leave with quality local products, this tour will be perfectly adapted. In short, this is not an Olive Museum, but rather a Commercial Enterprise that values its products. For lovers of in-depth cultural discoveries, this may seem limited, but for local product enthusiasts, the experience remains interesting. ⸻
