A city tour of Split that is very interesting.
Milena, our guide, provided us with a comprehensive view of the old town of Split, both rich and varied, from the city's origins to the present day. Many details would have escaped us without the benefit of her knowledge. The hour and a half spent in her company was both enriching and pleasant.
A
Enjoy your visit.
