Different tour of Split with fantastic and very knowledgeable guide! High recommendation!!

Published on Dec, 2022

We took this tour because we wanted to know more about communist period in Croatia and Split and how we were very interested in this matter we booked it as a private tour. We had our guide Boris with us and we were very happy about it because he is real expert. Boris is highly knowledgeable, not just about the history but everything related to it as well. On the tour you will see parts of the city which you want be able to see on regular tours and you go there by car or van. Boris also offered us to show some things which are ussually not part of the tour and how we were on private tour we could model it by ourselves. We truly enjoyed it and felt we learned a lot because the tour definitely changed our perspective on some things about communism in Croatia/Yugoslavia. We highly recommend this tour and especially with Boris as your guide! We cannot thank him enough for sharing his knowledge and for being such a pleasant company. Thank you so much Boris for everything!
