Full Day Tour to Split
Description
We are unique because we are simple, communicative, and adaptable to your needs. The only thing we don't like is when guests ask us how long they can stay here because the answer is as long as you need. We don't like to rush someone because you came on vacation to enjoy yourself and not think about time.

Itinerary
The excursion starts from your hotel, airport, or meeting point. After a 1 hour ride, you will arrive at the little Medieval town of Ston where you will have a nice walk on the Ston city walls. After this walk of around 30 minutes, we will proceed toward the salt works. You will learn about the technological process of obtaining sea salt and its excellent quality. When the tour finishes we will drive to Klis castle before Split around 1h 30m.
Built into the limestone bluffs outside of Split, the imposing Klis Fortress(Tvrdava Klis) was once an important defensive stronghold between the Mediterranean and the Balkans. It housed the seat of many Croatian kings, though nowadays it’s better known as the film location for the fictional city of Meereen in the series Game of Thrones. This attraction you can see in 1h 30min. After we need to drive 30min to the center of Split.
After Klis 30-45min you start the tour at the Split Riva, the promenade of Split. Through the Bronze City Gate, you enter the basement of the palace. The vaulted cellars are intact and very well preserved after more than 1700 years. Then you move on to the sacral part of the palace, the Perystil, and the Cathedral, which was once Diocletian's mausoleum. The pagan temple of Jupiter became a baptistery in the 7th century. You will walk along Cardo, the former main street of the palace, and admire the Golden Gate. Then you can have lunch, coffee or drink around 2h45m. After that, we meet at the drop zone and return to the hotel around 2h and 30min. Also, if you need some extra we are flexible to make your trip be perfect.

Mateo is so gracious and friendly. His car is very comfortable and he is a very safe and efficient driver. We made excellent time on the round trip and he was very flexible in timing so we could utilize our time how we wanted to. He’s given us terrific local tips for restaurants and local sights. If you’re doing a day trip to Split (or other activity) I highly recommend Mateo. He’s great with kids, and totally easy going.
Mateo si an excellent driver and a great and fun person. He’s very friendly and always eager to help and give the best advice.

Mateo was an excellent tour guide! He put together 2 personalized tours for our group. The first was to Perast and Kotor Montenegro from Dubrovnik. The second was from Dubrovnik to Split, going through Mostar and hitting many other great sights along the way. A highlight was the lunches he arranged for us both days! In Mostar we sat over looking the bridge at Terace Legaro. The food was amazing and the view is incredible. He had the best table in the place reserved for us ahead of time. His tours are well thought out and well planned. He even sends pictures at the end of the day. He is friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. I highly recommend!
Thank you very much for the feedback. And I hope to return soon to see the rest of Croatia and try more good wine and delicious food.😀
Antonio our driver and tour guide was excellent - as a driver as well as a historian passionate about all things Croatia!
Thank you very much for the feedback. And we hope it is not the last visit to Dubrovnik.
Mateo was simply the best, he not only ensured we get to see so many amazing places, but kept the journey very comfortable, taking us through some of the most scenic paths, and at same time, explaining about the salient aspects of the place. He is well informed and an amazing sense of the entire region (not a single time, saw him using Google maps). We used his service while transiting from Dubrovnik to Split and on the way took us through the Botanical garden, Ston, Blagaj, Mostar, Kravice waterfalls. Would strongly recommend Mateo to anyone looking for a private taxi operator to travel across Croatia!!
Thank you very much for the nice review. It was very nice to hang out with you and I hope it's not the last time you visit Croatia.
Mateo was an Amazing guide with so many great suggestions. Very friendly and he provided alternative sites to tour that were better than what we had planned ourselves. Very fun, safe and gave insight to Croatia.
Thank you very much. When you come back, let me know. I have a lot more up my sleeve to recommend. 😀
A perfectly wonderful day with our knowledgeable and professional guide, Mateo. We saw many gorgeous sites on the way to Split and stopped at a delicious winery before returning. A must do vacation day!
Thank you very much and I hope to see you again, it was nice to talk and hang out with you. All the best for the rest of your vacation.
