Itinerary

The Peristyle of Diocletian's Palace
15 min

On the crossroad of the two main roads of the palace, the so called Peristyle is located. The Peristyle is a rectangular open court decorated with colonnade and intended to become the heart of the city.

Cathedral of Saint Domnius
Pass by

The Cathedral of Saint Domnius, consecrated at the turn of the 7th century AD, is regarded as the oldest Catholic cathedral in the world that remains in use in its original structure, without near-complete renovation at a later date (though the bell tower dates from the 12th century).

Grgur Ninski Statue
15 min

The 8.5-metre (28 ft) tall statue of Gregory of Nin by Ivan Meštrović in Split is a busy tourist site in the town, which the toe of the statue shows. Rubbing the statue's toe is said to bring good luck. The toe has been worn smooth and shiny as a result.

Temple of Jupiter
Pass by

The Temple of Jupiter (Croatian: Jupiterov hram) is a temple in Split, Croatia dedicated to the Ancient Roman god Jupiter. It is located in the western part of Diocletian's Palace near the Peristyle, the central square of the imperial complex. It was built between 295 and 305, during the construction of the palace.

Diocletian Palace Substructures
Admission not included15 min

The Cellars of Diocletian's Palace, sometimes referred to as the "basement halls", is a set of substructures, located at the southern end of Diocletian's Palace (now the southernmost part of Split Stari grade), that once held up the private apartments of Emperor Diocletian and represent one of the best preserved ancient complexes of their kind in the world.

Central Square in Trogir
15 min

The Central Square in Trogir is the main square of the old town (also called John Paul II Square) in this little and Venetian-style town, Trogir. Trogir is a charming port city located on the Adriatic Sea in central Dalmatia. The fact that it is worth coming here is proven by the fact that the old town is included in the UNESCO class of monuments. It is surrounded by several prominent buildings such as the Loggia and Clock Tower. The Loggia, located opposite the Cathedral, used to be a public courtroom. It is notable for its 6 pillars decorated with capitals and two reliefs carved into the wall. Unfortunately, during summer you can't clearly see the pillars since there is a coffee bar just nearby. But what you can see clearly is a relief called The Relief of Justice made by Nicholas Florentino.

Saint Lawrence's Cathedral
Admission not included15 min

The Cathedral of St. Lawrence (Croatian: Katedrala Sv. Lovre) is a Roman Catholic triple-naved basilica constructed in Romanesque-Gothic in Trogir, Croatia. Since its construction lasted several centuries, it illustrates all the styles that succeeded one another in Dalmatia. It serves now as the most imposing monument in the city of Trogir.

Kula Karmelengo
Admission not included15 min

The Kamerlengo Fortress is a 15th-century coastal fortress built during Venetian rule to protect Trogir from naval attacks. Today, it offers beautiful views over the old town, marina, and nearby islands, and stands as a symbol of Trogir’s strategic and maritime importance.

Trogir
15 min

The Town Loggia was the public meeting place of medieval Trogir, where important decisions were announced and legal matters discussed. It reflects the city’s long tradition of civic life and self-governance.

Palace Cipiko
Admission not included15 min

The Čipiko Palace is the largest residential palace in Trogir and a fine example of Gothic-Renaissance architecture. It belonged to the influential Čipiko family and showcases the wealth and power of Trogir’s noble past.

A lot of walking. Ask for...

A lot of walking. Ask for Henry as your guide as he was very knowledgeable, personable, accommodating. He added other to the tour that we requested without eliminating any of the important sites.

wonderful experience with an even better guide❤️

From the moment we began our journey, it was clear that this tour would exceed our expectations. Our guide greeted us warmly and immediately immersed us in the fascinating stories of Split's ancient past. As we wandered the labyrinthine streets of Diocletian's Palace, we felt like we were transported back to the days of the Roman Empire. The guide's expertise brought the history of this UNESCO World Heritage Site to life, painting vivid pictures of emperors, gladiators and everyday life within these ancient walls.Overall, the private tour of Split and Trogir was an absolute delight from start to finish. It offered a perfect blend of history, architecture and local flair, leaving us with precious memories and a newfound understanding of this beautiful corner of the world. Whether you're a history buff, a culture vulture or simply a traveler looking for an extraordinary experience, this tour is not to be missed.
