Hello and welcome! I’m Silvio, a licensed tour guide for Split and Croatia with over 16 years of experience, and I can honestly say I still love what I do every single day. Guiding is not just my job, it’s my passion. I feel incredibly lucky to share the beauty, history, and everyday life of Croatia with guests from all over the world. Being my own boss allows me to stay flexible, creative, and fully focused on you and your interests. I’m a true history enthusiast and lifelong learner, always researching and discovering new details so I can make every story richer and more meaningful. But my tours are not just about the past. I enjoy talking about modern Croatia too, from economy and politics to sports and daily life. I love great conversations and I always adapt to the curiosity of my guests. At heart, I’m a storyteller. I believe history should feel alive, fun, and easy to understand. I mix knowledge with humor, local anecdotes, and a relaxed energy. Yes, there will definitely be some jokes along the way. All my tours here are private and completely customized. After 16 years in the field, I’ve built strong local connections that allow me to offer certain experiences and access that many others simply cannot. If you’re looking for something special, different, or even a little unexpected, I’m always happy to make it happen. I’m extremely flexible and love a challenge. My goal is simple. I want you to leave Croatia not just with beautiful photos, but with real understanding, great memories, and maybe even a few new friends. I can’t wait to explore with you. Silvio

Overview of your Split tour

Food is one of the best ways to understand a place, and I'd love to share the flavours that have shaped my life growing up in Dalmatia. This isn't just a food tour it's an invitation to experience Dalmatian and Mediterranean culture the way locals do, through family recipes, seasonal ingredients, and stories behind every bite. Together we'll stroll through the vibrant Green Market, where generations of locals have shopped for fresh produce, olive oil, cheese, herbs, and seafood. Along the way, we'll taste authentic Dalmatian specialities, from homemade rakija and traditional soparnik to fresh seafood, local delicacies, and a hearty meal paired with Croatian wine. As a local guide, I'll introduce you not only to the food but also to the traditions, customs, and everyday life that make Mediterranean cuisine so special. Come hungry, ask plenty of questions, and leave with a full stomach, new friends, and a genuine taste of Split.

Your Split tour itinerary

Our experience includes: -Visit the famous Green Market, where local farmers sell seasonal fruits, vegetables, cheeses, olive oils, herbs, and homemade products. -Sample traditional Dalmatian snacks and learn about the ingredients that define the Mediterranean diet. -Taste authentic soparnik, a protected Croatian delicacy with a fascinating history. -Enjoy while discovering its role in Croatian culture and hospitality. -Visit carefully selected local eateries to sample regional specialities, including fresh seafood and other traditional Dalmatian dishes. -Sit down for a relaxed meal accompanied by Croatian wine, where we'll talk about local customs, family recipes, and everyday life in Split. -Finish the tour with recommendations for the best restaurants, konobas, wine bars, and hidden food spots to enjoy during the rest of your stay.
