Overview

Join this tour to explore Split's rich heritage and transformation from Diocletian's era to today. I've been born and raised in Split and it makes me happy to share rich history, culture, and hidden gems of my hometown!

You will be a part of a small group so you can truly enjoy in each step of the way.

Let me take you on a walk through Split's ancient city and the iconic Diocletian's Palace. This tour offers a exploration and explanation of the rich heritage and transformation of this UNESCO World Heritage Site from the days of Emperor Diocletian to the vibrant present.

We'll stroll through cobbled streets of Split's Old Town, where every corner holds a story to be told. Learn about the impressive Palace walls and architecture of the palace complex which stands here over 1,700 years when Diocletian choose it as his luxurious residence.

Pjaca

Just outside the walls of Diocletian’s Palace sits Pjaca (the official name: People’s Square. It is located just past the western walls of Diocletian’s Palace, at the exit of the Iron Gate. As the population grew, the palace became too small and Pjaca was the first area developed beyond the walls in the 14th century. Home to the former 15th-century city hall, Pjaca has been a gathering space for centuries, and it’s still a great place to enjoy a cup of coffee or a nighttime stroll.

Fruit's Square (Trg Brace Radic)

There are several landmarks decorating this not so large a square thriving with city life in bars, restaurants and exclusive shops, a venue often used also by fairs. The biggest is certainly the octagonal Venetian tower, the leftover of the former fortress, built in the 15th century for the defence of, at the time, a small town. Opposite the tower is a magnificent Palace of the old family Milesi from the 17th century with a spectacular Baroque facade, one of the best examples of that style in the whole of Dalmatia.
