Split native, licensed guide & Game of Thrones extra — my family has lived here for 500 years. I was an extra on Game of Thrones — filmed right here, in the streets and fortresses I'll show you. And my family has lived in Split and the Kaštela region for over 500 years, so when I say this is my home, I mean it in a way few guides can. History isn't my job; it's my inheritance. I wrote my first paper on Diocletian's Palace when I was eleven years old. Both of my grandmothers lived to nearly a hundred, and the stories they passed down to me — of emperors, kings, Ottoman sieges and fishing villages — are the same stories I'll pass on to you, standing in the exact places where they happened. On my tours you get two worlds in one: the fantasy of Westeros (I'll tell you what it was really like on set when HBO turned our palace into Meereen and our castles into Braavos) and the true history behind it — which, I promise you, is even more dramatic than the show. I'm a fully licensed guide for both the Split-Dalmatia and Šibenik-Knin regions, which means I can legally guide you everywhere that matters: Diocletian's Palace, Trogir, Klis Fortress, Salona, the Kaštela castles, Šibenik and Krka National Park, Hvar, and the local wineries where I know the winemakers by name. When I'm not guiding, you'll find me in my olive grove on Kozjak mountain above the bay — my family has been growing olives here for generations. That's the Dalmatia I want to show you: not just the monuments, but the life between them. Coffee by the sea, wine in a village tourists never find, and stories you won't read in any guidebook. Come see Dalmatia through the eyes of someone whose roots here go back five centuries. I'll take care of the rest.

Trogir is a medieval town on a tiny island — and for me, it's the town next door. My family has lived in this region for over 500 years, and I've walked these stone streets my whole life. On this private 2-hour tour I'll show you why National Geographic called Trogir one of the world's most beautiful island towns: the city gates, the main square with its Renaissance loggia, hidden courtyards — and the masterpiece of Dalmatia, the Cathedral of St. Lawrence with Radovan's Portal. That portal is my favorite work of art in all of Croatia: a stone comic book of medieval life, carved in 1240 — Adam and Eve, lions, and ordinary peasants frozen in stone for 800 years. Cathedral entrance is included, no surprises and no extra tickets. This isn't a memorized script. It's a walk through a living town with a licensed guide and lifelong historian who knows which stones have stories. Ask me about my Game of Thrones & Klis tour, Split tour, or a full-day Krka & Šibenik trip.
North Town Gate (start) — orientation under the statue of Trogir's protector: why is there a town on this tiny island at all? The answer is 2,300 years old. Stone streets & hidden courtyards (25 min) — a street grid unchanged since antiquity, Venetian palaces, mason's marks and courtyards tourists never notice. Main square (25 min) — the Loggia, Clock Tower and Duke's Palace: seven centuries of court, marketplace and stage. Cathedral of St. Lawrence (35 min, entrance included) — Radovan's Portal of 1240, the finest medieval carving on the Adriatic, and the stunning Renaissance chapel of St. John. Riva promenade (20 min) — Kamerlengo fortress views, photo time, and my honest local tips: where to eat like a local, what to skip, and what to do with the rest of your day.
