Such a lovely way to learn about and see the Diocletian's Palace. Josko was a fantastic guide - very friendly and knowledgeable. Lots of fun facts and photos and stops along the way!
Thank you very much for joining me on tour, I am very happy you enjoyed it as much as I did. It was my real pleasure to have you on tour and show you my hometown. Wish you all the best, thank you for visiting Split & Croatia🌴⛵️🐬🍹🤗. Warmest regards. Joško
My friend and I recently visited the Palace and had the pleasure of being guided by Joško. Joško was extremely knowledgeable and brought the history of the Palace to life. As a 13th-generation Croatian who lived through the war of the 1990s, he was able to provide both historical facts and personal insights that made the tour especially meaningful. He is a very pleasant, personable, and engaging guide with a genuine passion for the history of the Palace. He explained the story of the Emperor, the construction of the Palace, the materials used, and what daily life was like there centuries ago. He also spoke about the damage the Palace suffered during the war and the efforts made to preserve this remarkable historical site. I would highly recommend Joško to anyone planning a tour of the Palace. His knowledge, enthusiasm, and personal connection to the history make for a truly memorable experience. Enjoy!

Josko Chinese review is here 😄 I joined a walking tour led by Josko with friends, and actually from the time he lived in California before his first sentence, there was a sense of intimacy. From the map outside the walls to the basement inside the walls, the whole process he explained was interesting and interactive, and also likened the corners of history to time squar, overall feeling very good 😍 Partners who have no problem with English can sign up 😎

Jo is incredibly knowledgeable about the city and made the whole experience so much fun! Our friend and I had a great time. He made the museum much more interesting, without him, we would never have known the history behind everything we saw.
