Split: Ancient Bites & Roman Empire Secrets Tour

“Ted” was amazing!! He was so knowledgeable about the history of Split and kept it very interesting. Our first stop served a small plate of meats and cheeses, served with bread and wine. Delicious. Our second stop was filled with so many delicious dishes and the locals were wonderful. While I did indicate we had a vegetarian in our group, and validated with Ted, there seemed to be a disconnect with the two restaurants who were unaware of the situation leaving them to scramble to provide for that person. Truly, the restaurants want to look prepared but there’s definitely a breakdown in communication somewhere.

Lucas was a sensational tour guide. He spoke very clearly for my wife who is hard of hearing. His pace was excellent my wife was in scooter and I found the tour very accessible with just a couple steps for bathrooms. The food was outstanding especially squid ink seafood risotto with octopus. Lived Split highly recommended

Excellent evening (we did the 5pm tour) and Ivan our guide was very knowledgable and informative. This was more than an ‘old city’ tour, and the gastronomic experiences along the way were excellent, especially the Adriatic fish and meat platters at Muma’s Food and Wine and the traditional tuna and monkfish dishes at Skalinada Seafood & Steak.

Ivan was great. He worked with us on our very tight timeline to ensure we saw as much as possible and ate as much as possible. Great experience and would highly recommend Ivan!

Ivana was wonderful! She gave us a history lesson on Split as she walked us around the city center, and took us to some great places to experience Croatian food! We enjoyed the tour very much!

Jelena is such a fun and informative guide! My wife and I had a great time exploring Split with her. We highly recommend her for a private tour.

Jelena was a wonderful guide. She was incredibly knowledgeable about the city, history and know all the best local culinary experiences. She brought this city to life for us!

We had such a fun day exploring Split with our wonderful guide Jelena. We loved walking and eating our way through this charming city. We brought our 4 children ages 12-22 and everyone loved this tour. We all quickly became friends with our guide and truly enjoyed our day with her. Would highly recommend! Come hungry, there is so much delicious food!!!

Jelena was a very enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide in Split at the Diocletian castle. It is clear she enjoys telling stories about history and she knows lots of people in the shops and restaurants. I would 100% recommend her. It is also notable that this is a private tour although not advertised that way. She can accommodate start time changes and customize the tour. Viator should reflect this in the website listing.

Incredible introduction to the town of Split! Jalena started us in the market where we met some of the best vendors and sampled their local delicacies. We then made our way through town learning about the interesting history, architecture and unusual facts that make Split so unique. Along our way we went to some of the finer restaurants serving authentic Croatian food that we would not have found on our own. Jalena is so engaging and fun and has a such a wonderful way of bringing the history of Split to life. Make sure you are hungry before the tour starts, because there is so much to eat along the way! Thanks Jalena. We had a terrific day.
