Exceptional - Exceptional. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable of the history of the area and times. Very organized. Note* Don’t put the meet up address into your map app. It took us to a restaurant location and we only figured out it was the wrong location last minute in time to get to the right place.

Great overview - Slovak was very knowledgeable about the history of the palace. Provided many tidbits of interest beyond the history. Knows the area and there wasn’t a question asked which was not answered.

A complete Split overview - This tour was amazing - of all the tours we took over a course of 21 days our Family voted that this was the best one. Our guide I - was so personable and friendly We got a great overview of the city, palace, the inner workings of Split and places to eat gelato. It was super hot and our guide knew all the shady places to stop and give key tour points before we moved on

Great guide - We have a great guide who maneuvered us through the maze of the palace, avoiding the crowds, and gave us many interesting facts about history, culture and architecture. Spoke perfect English.

Learned so much - We got lots of information about everything the Palace has to offer! The only thing that rubbed our group the wrong way was the discouragement to visit or try many of the things the palace offers because our guide did not like their political reasonings

Split walking tour - Enjoyed the tour. Ante did a great job! Lots of historical information-market stop to pick up water might have been a good idea or encourage participants to bring some along.

Good tour, interesting info - Overall good tour, guide (Tito) was knowledgable. A little hard to understand, his English was OK. He was soft spoken which was difficult for our mother to hear him as there are a lot of other tours and people in close proximity during the entire tour. Earphones (that we saw other much larger groups wearing) would have been helpful even though we paid extra for this to be a private tour for only seven people. I would very much recommend this company for a walking tour. Easy booking and payment.
