very pleasant visit - Visit of the Olive Museum very informative with a passionate Young Guide very well maintained and pleasant site The fortress of KLIS allows to have a beautiful panorama and the ascent is not so terrible as one could foresee

Must do if you’re in Split! - Such a great value! We loved Stella Croatica and the tavern on site is 1000% worth stopping for lunch afterwards. You’ll definitely want to plan on getting an Uber to get you from the museum to Klis fortress as it’s a 20 min walk with no sidewalks and on an incline.

A great location to visit historic attractions, enjoy local produce and learn some things about Croatian culture - We took the public bus (number 22) from Split and missed our scheduled stop for Klis Fortress-there was little signage to say we had arrived and the driver informative. After panicking slightly, we alighted the bus at the next stop, Stella Croatica. It was a delightful experience, one we didn't plan for, but thoroughly enjoyed. The museum was very welcoming and our tour guide took us on a journey of fig, lavender and olive growing history in the region, showing us and explaining the traditional ways of growing, harvesting and production, comparing them to the modern day equivalent. She was very knowledgeable and all of the staff had great grasp of the English language. We were taken through the cottage gardens, which had an array of herbs, trees and flowers, which looked and smelt beautiful. We eventually ended up in the shop, where we could smell, touch and taste the olive oils, honey, facial and body creams and other amazing produce grown on the farm. The aromas and flavours were exceptional and great care was taken to allow us to sample without any hard selling from the staff. The museum also has a farm cafe, selling local food and drinks. Having this unexpected visit left us enthralled and puzzled as to how to get to the Klis Fortress. Buses ran hourly until noon and then less frequently during the heat of the day. One option was a 20 minute walk (in 34° heat) along a tributary road, but we decided to try for a taxi/Uber. We were pleasantly surprised to find an uber 4 minutes away. The driver spoke good English and took us the 4 minute journey to the fort. Klis Fortress is set back from the road on a hill, which doesn’t look very imposing until you reach the top and look at the vista around you. It had good commentary around the fort, on signs in both Croatian and English. There was some mention of the making of Game of Thrones, but not as many as expected. The views were amazing, looking down the valley to Split, the coastline and hills surrounding it. Some part of it were built on a pinnacle in 2 BC and is baffling to work out how it was built. We had a 2 hour wait for the 22 bus back to Split, but enjoyed the shade of the local bar at the base of the hill, next to the fortress. These 2 attractions had superb history and information attached to them and I would definitely recommend visiting them.

Olive oil museum/fortress - The fortress is fascinating and really helped me understand Croatian history better. But I made the mistake of walking to the olive oil museum from there in the heat. I was very sick when I got there- nausea, dizzy, etc. Dragica and Pina took such wonderful care of me to make sure I was recovered. After their help, I took the tour and found it fascinating and educational. The store was fabulous also.

To do! - Private guided tour in French (cool for children)! Welcome to the top and info on olive oil hyper interesting! The site is beautiful, it is beautiful, modern and clean! The store is crazy, we could taste everything or try before buying! I recommend, the quality is there!!

A wonderful olive experience! - The olive oil museum is amazing! Beautiful botanical gardens full of herbs and flowers, an educational museum and a gift shop to beat all gift shops. I usually give gift shops a miss, but the opportunity to taste local goods infused with all sorts of flavour before purchase was too good to miss. Don't miss this if you are in Split!

Magnificent site with magnificent plants (jasmine) - Nice welcome and beautiful site. Very good product. Very clean, welcoming and French-speaking staff. Toilets available free of charge.

Definitely worth the trip - Went to Stella Croatia the first day and have a great time learning the process of olive oil making and the history of it in the region. The castle we went to on the second day and Klis was awesome! Awesome view of the city from so far up.

Exciting and great views - The Olive Museum offers an exciting overview of the discovery and production of olive oil in Croatia. There is a guided tour that does not take very long. The guide could have taken a little more time here, but absolutely fine for the price. In the end, locally produced products can be bought at fair prices. The fortress offers a beautiful view over the region. The climb was absolutely worth it. Otherwise it was much too hot for us at 37 degrees to visit the fort in detail.

Fortress yes. Musuem you can skip - Great fortress and an amazing view Please do not walk between the two venues. On over half of the distance it is a busy road with no sideway. The museum you are rushed through to get to their store.
