I booked this tour after going with Lotus Travel to the Krka Waterfalls, and just like the previous tour, this one was absolutely amazing. Split was incredible. It has such a fascinating story and around 1700 years of history, especially Diocletian’s Palace. Henry took us around the city and showed us some of the little alleys where he actually grew up, which made the experience feel really personal and special. After that, we visited the Kliss fortress, where Henry gave us some free time to explore on our own. We took some of the most amazing photos overlooking the city of Split, and afterwards we had coffee together. Our last stop was Trogir, a cool little coastal city with a beautiful center. He showed us around the narrow alleys and took us to all the main buildings and sights. To finish the day, we had lunch at a traditional local restaurant, where we tried pastizada and other specialties. All in all, it was another wonderful trip, Henry was fantastic, the itinerary was great, and the personal touches made the whole experience truly memorable. I would definitely recommend this tour!

Itinerary
We’ll start our day with a walking tour of Diocletian’s Palace, where I’ll show you how the palace looked 1,700 years ago. Then we’ll enter the cellars to see how it was built. Next, we’ll walk through the southern part where the Emperor lived, visit the Vestibul (the grand welcome hall), and see the Peristyle, the palace’s main square. We’ll also visit all four gates and stop by the statue of Grgur Ninski, Split’s good luck charm. Finally, we’ll wander through the narrow Kala alleys, which will lead us back to our car for the next destination.
Perched high above Split, Klis Fortress offers breathtaking panoramic views of the Adriatic coast and surrounding mountains. As you arrive in your luxury van, the dramatic stone walls and rugged towers immediately set the tone for a journey through centuries of Croatian history.
An altenative to Klis Fortress are the ancient ruins of Salona.
After Klis Fortress, we’ll continue to Trogir, a beautiful historic town on a small island connected by bridges. We’ll walk through its narrow stone streets, see medieval city walls, and visit the main square with the impressive Cathedral of St. Lawrence. You’ll hear about Trogir’s Greek, Roman, and Venetian history, and have time for lunch and to enjoy the waterfront promenade before heading back to Split.

Our guide Henry was outstanding! His knowledge of the area which we toured was incredible. His van was large and comfortable for our family of 6 adults. His personality was warm and welcoming. I would definitely recommend him as your guide.
Thank you Baba. Wish all the best to you and your wonderful family 😃
Take this tour, you will love it. Henry is great! We took this tour with a family of 7 (ages 16-78) and everyone had a great time. Henry was incredibly flexible and catered the tour to suit our desires. He also speaks impeccable English. 10 out of 10.
Thank you, Jason, for the wonderful review! I really enjoyed spending the day with you and your family. It was a pleasure getting to know you all
Our time with Henry in Split was our favorite tour of our 10 day vacation. We had a private tour with Henry and he showed us so much of Split and made the time with him so pleasurable. We loved hearing about what living in Split was like as he is a lifelong resident. We felt like best friends when our time with him was over. Do not hesitate to book this tour as you will learn so much and enjoy every minute with him.
We had a great day! Henry was not only a great guide but an interesting person to spend the day with. We had a plan but he was also very flexible, understanding that this was our first time in the area. He was also able to take us to a location of local and historical significance that the larger companies do not visit. Highly recommended!
We just spent a delightful day with Henry touring the Split area. The walking tour of Diocletian’s palace was very interesting. Rode in his very comfortable van to the other sites finishing in Trogir. Having a private guide really gives you a feel for the area. Henry’s English is perfect and he has great knowledge of the history of the area. I’ve been on lots of cruises and he’s probably the best guide we’ve ever had. I wholeheartedly recommend using Henry
Thank you for this amazing review! It means everything to us. :)
Great tour and well worth the cost. Henry was extremely knowledgeable and very friendly. Very comprehensive tour of Split.
Thank you fpr the great review :) Henry
Our guide Henry was knowledgeable and very friendly. He shared with us soooo much that we didn’t know about Croatia. The weather was rainy but he made our day fun and memorable! We are happy we booked this.
Thank you for this amazing review! :))
We loved Trogir and our time there. The views from Klis were amazing! Our guide, Henry, was very informative and flexible with what we wanted to do. He was a very pleasant and interesting guide. We enjoyed our day with him very much!
Henry was knowledgeable and gave us a great tour of Split, Klis Fortress, and Trogir. His sense of humor made the trip especially enjoyable.
