Hi, my name is Ana. I am a historian, art restorer, and recently a tour guide. During my time at collegue I wrote books about Dalmatia and Split. I also did the restoration on renowned landmarks of Split - Statue of Grgur Ninski, Diocletian's mausoleum, portal of palace Augubio etc. I recently got a tour guide license and would be very happy to share my knowledge with the people visiting my hometown.

Tour description

Hi,
my name is Ana. I participated in the restoration of many Split landmarks including the statue of Grgur Ninski by Ivan Mestrovic, the Diocletian mausoleum, the portal of palace Augubio, etc.
Being a tour guide is a long-time wish for me.  I will walk you through historical facts as well as stories and mysteries surrounding Split and Diocletian's palace.
We will begin our journey in park "Đardin", then we will make our way to the map on Split Riva. After that, we will make our way through the Diocletian's basements to Peristil. From there we will go to Diocletian's apartment, vestibular, cryptoporticus, etc. From there we will make our way to the golden (north) gate. There you will also see the famous statue of Grgur Ninski made by renowned and world-famous sculptor Ivan Meštrović.
From there we will go to Pjaca and Voćni Square where we will finish our tour.
Looking forward to meeting you! :)

I went on a city tour with Ana back in 2020. I was so inspired and amazed by her that 4 years later I took my boyfriend to Split and made sure we would go again with her. She is fun, very knowledgeable, passionate, and she really cares about telling us personal stories that add value to the tour. At the end she also gives us very nice recommendations! She inspired me to go on other city tours whenever I visit a new city.

Amazing tour with Ana! It rained on the day I booked the tour so it ended up being just me. Ana didn't cancel the tour and still guided me through all the places in Split, sharing all the history behind them. Highly highly recommend!
