Perfect Tour of Split With a True Local
Hi there, I'm Kristina and I've been a full-time professional guide for nine years. I love my job and I consider it a real privilege to show people around the city I love. Tours performed by me personally have accrued just over one thousand 5-star reviews across the various review sites, so you're in safe hands. I have been born and raised in Split. I'm a licensed tourist guide for Split-Dalmatia and Šibenik-Knin counties in Croatia. I've been working as a local guide and tour leader for years. As I lived for some time abroad, and am also a passionate traveller, I am easily accustomed to other cultures and religions. . I learned that while working for Disney in Orlando. My guests love me because of my approach that is full of love for this job. I look forward to meeting you!

Tour description
Go back in time and walk with me in Diocletian's palace. Diocletian's Palace is one of the best preserved monuments of Roman architecture in the world. It is a combination of a luxury villa and a Roman military camp (castrum). This artistic ensemble is something not to be missed. We will take an exciting journey that begins on the bronze walkway map. Then we will access the substructures of the building where we will reveal many secrets. We will go to Diocletian's room where you can get in touch with the lifestyle of the Romans. Then, we will walk through the two main streets of Cardio and Decumanos which are the main streets of every Roman city. We will see the cathedral, the temple of Jupiter, four monumental gates, the statue of Gregorio de Knin, the Pjaca square and the fruit square. You will also see the Peristyle , the center of the palace used for religious reasons. I will also show you the green market and the fish market.

The starting point was a little confusing as we went to the address of the Archeological Museum.
Once we joined the group we found it really down to earth and interesting.
