The tablet is a great feature. - The tablet is a great feature. We liked this tour in Split much more than others in Dubrovnik, where guides only use photos. It’s really interesting to see everything on a tablet—it helps refresh your memory and makes the experience much more engaging. We took photos on the Iron Throne and at other locations as if we were characters from the series. The real history is also very fascinating.

A perfectly timed tour that gives you the best of the best of GoT and History - Marco was so great and hilarious. A good summary of history and also puts you right where game of thrones was filmed. It was a perfect length, especially after a long day. Cannot recommend this tour enough

So Cool! - Marko was very kind and informative. We struggled to find parking even with GPS having us arrive 30 minutes before the meeting. He was willing to wait for us, which was fantastic! The video scenes with the tour was really neat!
