Tour Information

Split is a vibrant port city on Croatia's stunning Dalmatian Coast. It's famous for the magnificent Diocletian's Palace, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Unlike any other palace, this Roman emperor's retirement residence forms the very heart of the old town, with homes, shops, and restaurants built directly into its ancient walls. Today, Split is a dynamic blend of ancient history and modern Mediterranean life, serving as the main gateway to the beautiful islands of the Adriatic Sea.

A City Within a Palace
The core of Split is the incredible Diocletian's Palace, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This is not a traditional museum piece but a fully integrated part of the city. Wander through its labyrinthine streets and discover centuries of history layered together—Roman architecture, Venetian-era buildings, and modern life coexisting in a unique urban tapestry.

The Adriatic Gateway
Split's bustling port is the main hub for exploring the Central Dalmatian islands. From here, you can easily catch a ferry to the pristine beaches of Brač, the glamorous nightlife of Hvar, or the secluded coves of Vis.

A Lively Mediterranean Lifestyle
Experience the vibrant atmosphere along the Riva, the city's seaside promenade, where locals and tourists gather day and night. Climb Marjan Hill for stunning views and a nature escape, and explore the city's vibrant food scene, which offers fresh seafood and delicious Dalmatian specialties.
