Overview

Step away from the typical tourist routes to explore the hidden side of Split. This walking tour delves into the history of the 1,700-year-old city through tales rarely mentioned in traditional guidebooks. The route leads through the narrow stone streets of Diocletian's Palace. You will discover facts based on real people and events: murders, executions, witches, heretics, brothels, epidemics, and political intrigues that have shaped the city over the centuries. The itinerary includes hidden corners and lesser-known spots, often overlooked by visitors and even some locals. The experience concludes on the Split promenade with a complimentary Croatian craft beer.
