Excellent Tour Experience! - Our Personal Guide Mr. Josko(Joseph) is a Split native with Immense knowledge . His insights were very thorough and Highly Informative. Although the tour was for 2 hours, he spent 3 hours with us taking us through the Palace and Old town streets with quaint alleys and passages. We had a Fantastic time.

#FunFacts - We had the best time with Josko. This guys got it! After purchasing tickets on our own and given a map to self direct (read signs with very little background and meander from room to room we found ourselves craving more). A tour guide “oh, you just came for the pictures not the history” caught our attention and the banter we desired… we booked with Joe. It’s no wonder he’s ranked number three on trip advisor and has 1005 ratings! If you’re looking for someone who has all the #funfacts all while making the tour eventful, appreciating, and understanding your banter all while giving it right back, J is your go to. We genuinely had fun and enjoyed our private tour.

Excellent History Tour of Diocletian’s Palace - Diocletian’s Palace Today we took a history walking tour with Joško, starting at the rendition of the original palace. Joseph gave us an EXCELLENT background of the history of the palace as well as the city, era etc. His charismatic way of delivering the story kept us (group of six) entertained and impressed with his wealth of knowledge. Little anecdotes thrown in throughout the close to 2 hour tour kept us all waiting for the next explanation of areas that we were seeing. I highly recommend him especially if you really want to appreciate the enormity and magnificence of this UNESCO treasure.
