Highly recommended - The tour was very interesting and Mia was an excellent guide. Winter is very much the off-season so most attractions and restaurants were closed. We were happy that this tour was available.

Perfect Way to Experience Split and the Palace - The whole family of 3 teenagers and 2 parents thought this tour was great. Our guide Slavco (apologies for any spelling error) was entertaining, informative, and easy to understand. We have a much greater appreciation for Split and the palace beyond just its beauty thanks to this tour. And for us, it was the perfect length where we feel like we saw a lot and got a good sense of the town without it being too much or too tiring. Highly recommend taking this tour if you visit Split!
