The best food tour I've been on and all the group thought the same. Lucija was extremely friendly and informative about the food, traditions etc. The tour was very varied and lasted four hours. I would highly recommend this food tour to anyone visiting Split. Well done Lucija
This was one of the highlights of our trip to Split. Highly recommend our guide Darko Pereza. His knowledge of the history and food was exceptional. The food was delicious and the servings were generous. We met some nice people at the stops and in our group. Wonderful time!
We really loved having you with us on Secret Food Tours. It was such a nice day sharing good food, conversation, and a few new discoveries together. We’d genuinely love to have you back!
Darko was a wonderful guide and we enjoyed his expertise regarding the food and culture of Split.
Thank you for spending the day with us! We really enjoyed having you on Secret Food Tours and sharing some of the local favorites we love. It would be lovely to see you again someday.
We experienced a wonderful and interesting evening with excellent food and wine and an insightful guide.
Having you with us added to the spirit of the day. We’re grateful you chose Secret Food Tours and spent time getting to know the city alongside us. We hope your visit gave you plenty of moments to look back on!
Great Split food tour! We tasted burek, Dalmatian sweets, olive oil, wine, pork belly and cevapi, bruschetta with anchovies among others and it was all amazing. We actually returned to a couple of places to try more dishes. Our guide Lorena was fantastic. She was so kind to accommodate a gluten sensitivity with alternate options and making sure the restaurants used gluten free bread. We had fun and were stuffed by the end of the tour.
Thanks for spending part of your trip with Secret Food Tours. We really enjoyed having you along and appreciate you taking the time to leave a review. We hope to see you again whenever you’re back in the city!
We had a lovely morning tour at 11am, great variety and set us up go explore the town ourselves. You will be very full so probably plan to eat light in the evening..we sampled so many different things, pastries, burek, fish, olive oil, very sweet lavender shop for the local drink, wines, and the green market. Our guide Lorena was very friendly and organised and kept us moving.
Thanks for making Secret Food Tours part of your trip! We loved having you with us and appreciate you taking the time to leave a review. We’d be delighted to welcome you back whenever you’re in town.
This is my second tour with Secret Food Tours. I did one in Ljubljana. Similarly this one was also awful value. There's no way it should cost this much when there are so many filler items like pastries and breads. The truffle tasting is also a joke because it's already just the samples the store offers to regular guests. Even the main course, pork belly and cevapi are relatively cheap proteins. There's no reason this tour shouldn't include one of those fish/seafood platters you see in most Croatian restaurants. The seafood you do get is bruschetta with anchovies and the fried, small seafood (sardines, baby shrimp). The guide was great. If I was just rating him and his added history I'd say five stars. Unfortunately he's weighed down by the poor value of this tour.

Our guide was guide, provided lots of interesting information about the country , city, culture and specific things. Loved winding through the city center’s windy alleys, paths, etc to find a small locally owned gem. Food and drink were great….would definitely do it again and recommend to others!
