Excellent combo of history and GoT - Tomi was a great guide. Super informative and lots of history along with GoT information. Small group was very pleasant and everyone was patient with my mom, who needs a little extra time for stairs.

Great tour! - Brilliant tour! It was a small group of us (6) and one other. Doing an evening tour was great as it was much cooler and less busy. The guide really knew his stuff and used the iPad to show key GoT moments which we all really loved and found really helpful. Highly recommend

A must do in Split! - Marko was absolutely fantastic… Funny, knowledgeable & attentive! Can’t imagine a better GofT tour! Not only did he show video clips on his own tablet at each site we visited, but he also shared local & national Croatian history that was super interesting. He seemed to know everyone as we walked down the alleys and was so friendly, personable and had us laughing and engaged the whole way.
