Recommended - My initial tour was cancelled so I was fortunately accommodated on another date. Their communication is clear. I really enjoyed the tour. I think the guide was Ana (trainee lawyer) apologies if I'm getting the name wrong but she was lovely. Very knowledgeable and she shared a good restaurant recommendation too. I recommend this tour to anyone who wants a nice taster or intro to the city.

Split the difference - Walking with the guide weren’t a great deal. Especially information about the architecture of the palace. It was economical and an easy way to see Split.

Informative but also misinformative. - The tour guide was excellent, knowledgable, humorous and navigated us through very busy and narrow streets very well. However, we were late for the tour because the Viator app told us one meeting place and the WhatsApp message I had from what was obviously a sub-contracted tour company, told us something totally different. We found the lady in the meeting place from the Viator app very rude and unhelpful. We managed to find our own way to the tour and caught them up, no thanks to the app or the tour company. Thankfully, we only missed 5 mins and the tour guide soon made us forget our frustration.
