  • Old Split - Food stop: As we explore the ancient streets of Split, your guide will offer numerous restaurant suggestions. At one of our stops, you’ll have the opportunity to sample Ćevapčići, a regional specialty. Derived from the Turkish kebap, Ćevapčići, the diminutive form of Ćevapi, carries a rich history. Originating during Ottoman rule in the Balkans, this dish was adopted by hajduks (rebels) from the occupying forces, likely with its roots tracing back to Persia.
  • Old Split - Wine & Food Tasting: For the tasting we will escape the hustle and bustle of tourist crowds and retreat to a restaurant. Here, you can enjoy an exclusive tasting experience of first-class local wines and delicacies. Savor two different high-quality wines, each expertly paired with Dalmatian specialties such as risotto, mussels, hobotnica salad, and other delectable treats. For our young guests there will be tasty non-alcoholic drinks to try instead of wine.

She showed us the palace and had lots of interesting information to share. She even kept our three teenagers engaged and made a couple of extra stops for us. Our tour finished with an amazing lunch. It was a great tour of split. Thank you!
