Great tour… Highly recommend! - Great experience, Mate was a very interesting and an informative guide. He was very proud of his heritage which we found this refreshing. We were going to cancel due to the weather, but decided not to. Very happy with our decision. The palace was more than amazing, a very special place. Thank-you Mate, we really enjoyed the tour.

The highlight of our holiday! - Mate was the most fantastic guide! He took us around Split and Trogir, and not only showed us the interesting sites, but brought the history alive with stories presented in both an engaging and humorous way! We had the most enjoyable time that we arranged a second tour to Salona with him on another day, which was equally brilliant. You will not be disappointed if you book with Mate - our time with him has been the highlight of our holiday.

Best Tourguide in town - Mate was an awesome tourguide! He not only knew the best photo spots, but also told us so much about Split. He took us on an interesting tour which ended with the best ice cream in town. We can only recommend to book one of his tours. We loved it!

Amazing tour and an even better tour guide!!!! - The tour was magnificent!!! Mate was super nice and extremely funny. He showed me the city through eyes of the history and through eyes of a local! I learned so much about how people live in Split but also learned a lot about the history of the town. He didn’t just say the facts but also made the effort to make them interesting through many stories. I had a lot of questions, and he was great about it - super patient and his answers were exactly what I was hoping for. Throughout the tour, he pointed out some famous local restaurants and ice cream places where I later stoped by for a bite and I loved it. All in all, the tour was great and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who really wants to enjoy the tour and not just be overwhelmed with boring history facts as it usually is on these kind of tours. Thank you Mate for a great tour!

Fabulous walking tour guide❣️🇷🇸 - Mate is very awesome. Explains slowly, thoroughly, and in a somewhat funny way. Easy to understand his English also. He is local and knows the area well. Will lead you to good places to eat as well! We really enjoyed his tour! Thank you Mate. Scott & Trylla🇺🇸
