Hello and welcome dear traveler! My name is Boško and I am a licensed tourist guide for Split-Dalmatia and Šibenik-Knin counties in Croatian and English language. My passion for travel has led me to a career in tourism, where I have been working in various positions since 2012. I have traveled thousands of kilometers as a local guide in Croatia and all over Europe as a tour leader. For the better part of the last decade, my brother and I have organized day trips and tailored whole vacations for hundreds of travelers wanting to experience the best of Croatia. I am an avid history and art lover, and a huge sports buff in my spare time and I am easily accustomed to other cultures and religions. Split born-and-bred, I have a deep knowledge of my wonderful city. I know the key to having a good time in a foreign country is adding the local touch. With charm and knowledge, I am happy to share my insights and my favorite places with you to help you create your unforgettable one-of-a-kind true Dalmatian experience! Focus on the quality details enables me to provide each of my travelers with truly unique and personalized experiences while giving back to community. I can plan your day according to your preferences and interests. I look forward to showing you Split and its surroundings in all of its glory, making you experience the history, complexity and atmosphere of Dalmatia through all of the sights, sounds and tastes it offers. Come with me and experience Croatia! See you soon, and as we say in Split: "Zdravi i veseli bili"! - Licensed tourist guide for Split-Dalmatia and Šibenik-Knin counties - Master's degree in Tourism Management from University in Split - Cambridge C2 Proficiency qualification I do not have any restrictions in regard to my guiding, I can offer a full range of experiences

Overview of your Split tour

Explore the city with the guide who loves it and lives it! I will show you my home town from a local perspective, take you to see the spots, hear the stories and get the best insider tips. Split holds many wonders, such as the iconic Diocletian's Palace, 1700 year old living organism, that has witnessed everything from the deaths of emperors to the birth of dragons. Touch the gigantic toe of Grgur Ninski for good luck and solve the riddle of the ancient sphinx before entering the Cathedral. Showcase your sunglasses on the sunny Riva promenade, the longest runway in Split. I'll show you the city from its turbulent beginnings to the present, discovering amazing people and stories in the process. Conclude the trip with a breathtaking panoramic view from the Marjan hill, favorite getaway destination of locals, situated just a short walk away from the city center.

Bosco took us on a two hour tour of split and made it interesting annd informative The pace was quite nice and he showed us a lot of interesting areas. We had taken several tours on our cruise before this and this one was by far the best. He gave us quite a bit information, but did not overburden this with dates and minutiae.

Bosko has an extensive knowledge of Roman Split and Diocletian. He is energetic and a clear communicator. He gave us a grounding on the core of Split that not only was valuable in itself but enriched our experience for the rest of the time we spent in Split. We highly recommend him.

Typical meeting point is by the big statue of Grgur Ninski, up the steps from the Northern entrance to the Diocletian's Palace. If your accommodation is in the old town of Split, I am happy to meet you there. If you are arriving in Split by cruise ship, I am happy to meet you in the port.
