Dear friends, My name is Joško (pronounced: Yosch-ko) and I am Licensed Tour Guide in Croatia, with expertise in the area of the Dalmatian Coast. I was born and raised here in Split, the capital and centre of Dalmatia region, where I live still today. I grew up in Communism and Homeland War, so I was literally living history. I also enjoyed living in San Diego, California for few years of my life. My life experiences, formal education, and authentic knowledge of the amazing Dalmatian Coast and it's rich surroundings have led me to turn my passion into my profession. I graduated from the University of Zagreb, Croatia with Master degrees in Economics and History Studies. For last 25 years, I have been guiding and creating customized tours in Croatia and during this time I have enjoyed partnering with many US and European travel companies. I truly believe a Croatian destination will always be gorgeous and fascinating and I simply love of being an ambassador of my beautiful country with visitors. As an experienced Tour Guide that gives an insider's perspective and as a resident of the region that has plenty of local lore to share, it will be my pleasure to make your vacation time in my country joyful and memorable for a years to come. I will be also very happy and proud to show you my hometown and region 'through the eyes of locals' and to consistently provide the type of experience a recent guest described as "I just returned from the Croatia trip yesterday and I have to say I feel as though I am looking at the world through new eyes. It was the greatest experience of my life. " I look forward to hear from you and hope to see and host you here in Split. Živili (Cheers)!!!
