Tea was the perfect tour guide. She was very proud and professional about her city. The entire 4 hours went so fast. We made 5 stops along the way and learned some amazing history of the city. We had 11 people in our group including us, and having so many terrific conversations with everyone over traditional Croatian foods was why we did this, as we’ve done other food tours and there simply the best tours. Of all the food we tried they were all delicious. Our lunch at a traditional Croatian restaurant just outside the city was phenomenal. All the places we stopped for tastings were amazing and all the food was wonderful. Tea owns her game and is certainly a tour guide I’d recommend any day of the week.
Marina was an excellent guide! The food stops were all delicious, we liked the one so much that we went back again the next night. And they're right when they say you don't need to book a separate tour for the history of the city - we learned a lot!
A good balance of informative tour of the Diocletian Palace and a taste of Croatian cuisine. We sampled a selection of local cheese, hams, etc in the first restaurant. A risotto in the second and a local beef dish in the three, this was followed by local savoury pastry and ice cream. The food was all of good quality and the service in the restaurants was attentive. I have seen some comments regarding the portion sizes, I was satisfied with the amount of food we received but I think it better to regard it like a taster menu.
We had a great time! Tea was a great guide. She explained the history of Old Town in a way that even my 10 year old enjoyed it. And of course the food was incredible. This is a great way to experience Split!!
Our guide Marina was awesome, she was very informative not only about the history of Split but also the history of the food. You dont need to book a tour of Split. I was satisfied with the potion sizes and enjoyed the food, but so.e of the men in our group were still hungry.
Excellent historical and gastronomic tour. Our tour guide Marina was amazing. So knowledgeable and moved the group at a good pace. It was lovely to eat at two spots inside the old town walls.
We received great history about Croatia. Marina was very knowledgeable, pleasant and attentive. However the food selection at all of the restaurants could have been better. The gelato was the best.
Our guide was Tea and she was fantastic. She grew up in Split and was an awesome source of the area’s history. The food was a mix of some local favorites and was delicious. Just the right amount of time to eat, relax, converse with other travelers. Had the ability (at additional cost) to have wine etc at each restaurant. The walking/history tour was very informative. Would highly recommend this tour. Good value for the price.
We had a wonderful experience on this food tour in Split! We visited three different restaurants, each offering delicious local specialties, and ended the afternoon with the most amazing gelato. Everything was thoughtfully chosen and gave us a great taste of the city. Our guide, Tea was sweet, funny, and incredibly knowledgeable. She brought the history of Split to life and shared so many interesting stories that made the city even more special. The perfect combination of great food, local culture, and history. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Split
Great way of exploring in and around the old town area with a great mix of history and food which was well selected. We loved this tour and Marina was a fabulous guide full of joy and energy and very knowledgeable. We did the evening version which suited as it was cooler and we were hungrier. Is good value for money
