"The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page. " - Saint Augustine ⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻ Hello and Welcome – Dobrodošli! My name is Frane (pronounced Frah-neh), and I’m a licensed tour guide based in Split, Croatia, proudly guiding visitors through the treasures of this stunning region since 2005. Born and raised in Split, I’ve lived and studied in both Italy and the United States, gaining a broader cultural perspective that helps me connect deeply with my guests.

With a university degree in History and Economics, I specialize in private, customizable tours throughout Croatia and Bosnia-Herzegovina, blending rich history, breathtaking nature, and vibrant local culture. Whether you crave ancient Roman ruins along the Dalmatian coast, enchanting medieval towns, artisanal wine regions, hidden inland villages, or a quest to trace your family roots, every tour is personalized to your interests.

Overview of your Split tour

Indulge in an exclusive escape to Krka National Park, where the emerald Krka River winds toward the Adriatic, creating serene lakes, silver streams, and the magnificent Skradinski Buk — one of Europe’s most stunning waterfalls. Wander the park’s tranquil wooden paths, surrounded by pristine nature and the melody of falling water. Then, escape to a charming village in the heart of the Dalmatian hinterland — my family’s private home, where tradition and genuine hospitality effortlessly merge.. Here, I’ll personally host you for an intimate culinary experience found nowhere else. Enjoy a hand-crafted menu featuring homemade rakija, Dalmatian prosciutto and cheese, and our signature “Peka”, slow-cooked beneath an iron lid and paired with our own family wine. This is not a tour — it’s a rare invitation into Croatian life, crafted for discerning guests who seek authenticity, privacy, and unforgettable beauty.
