Things to do Essential Diocletian's Palace & Split Old Town
My tour is designed to give first-time visitors an engaging and easy-to-follow introduction to the city's history, culture, and daily life.

“Informative and engaging walking tour!”
We had a wonderful tour hosted by Jelena! It was nice to have a smaller group so that we could hear everything and have time to ask questions along the way. It was so great to learn about the history of Diocletian’s Palace, Split Old Town and Croatian culture. Jelena kept things fun and engaging, with a group selfie at the end for our souvenir! If you only have a short time in Split, this is the tour to take!

Having attended many guided tours in past at various historical sites, I feel this was one of the best experience. The energy Jelena creates in the group of strangers is palpable.

“SPLIT WALKING TOUR”
Our Guide Jelena was fantastic, her knowledge of the history and architecture was so extensive, she provided lots of background and really knew all the facts. The pace of the tour was great, allowing everyone to take plenty of photos and ask questions. I'd definitely recommend doing this tour, particularly if you want to get a good grasp of the Old Town layout

“Very good”
Jelena was excellent, very informative, handled the group very well with a relaxed atmosphere. My booking was supposed to be Sunday evening, but it got cancelled and re-booked automatically for Monday morning - luckily I was available and it went well but it's good to keep in mind that this can happen.

Really clear and informative walking tour with a super friendly host!
Taking in all of the main sites of the old town, Jelena explained all of the historical elements through the ages in a really engaging way.
She was also very open to answering any questions about not only Split, but the neighbouring regions and countries as well.

“Fabulous!”
Jelena was very knowledgeable and gave us the history of the palace and of the area in general. We wouldn’t have gained such an insight if we’d have just walked around on our own. Jelena was very pleasant, funny and approachable. We wouldn’t highly recommend this tour. Thank you Jelena, we look forward to receiving the selfie you took! ????

“Wonderful Background to Split”
My tour turned out to be nice and small and personal, perfect when you see the mass tour groups of 30+ with earphones in blocking the paths. Jelena was very knowledgeable on the roman history of split, and bursting with recommendations on food, sites, and general transport advice. We covered the main spots (all tours see the same places) but were given interesting facts that make the history come alive. there was no rush or time limit either, and after the tour we could continue to stay and chat for a while.

“Short but informative walking tour!”
Easy meeting spot. Jelena spoke excellent English. She was knowledgeable about the history of Diocletian’s Palace and how it has evolved over the centuries. She made suggestions on other places to visit nearby as well as places to eat. Our time was limited because this was a quick stop on our cruise. Highly recommend her if this is a place you want to learn about. It would have been a beautiful place to walk around on our own, but she helped us appreciate how unique it really is!

“We loved the tour! ”
We loved this tour! We happened to be the only ones that booked the tour on that day for that time slot (we visited Split in the off-season) so it turned into a private tour actually :). We explored the old town on our own on the first day we arrived but Jelena showed us everything and took us through small alleys and to hidden gems we hadn’t discovered yet and told us about the history of the palace. We found it super interesting! Jelena was very fun, kind and knew so much about the history and little fun facts. She gave us recommendations and even discount codes for local restaurants and took a photo with us with the “Jelena-Method” in the vestibule of the palace :)
Overall I definitely recommend doing this tour with Jelena when you visit Split! It’s an interesting and entertaining way to explore the old town and learn about the rich history of the palace and the influences on the Dalmatian region.

Thanks, Jelena, for giving our friends a wonderful send off and for answering our questions! See you again the next time any of our friends come in town!

“Wonderful walk-in tour of Diocletian’s Palace”
Our tour of the Diocletion’s Palace, which comprises most of the Old Quarter of Split, was led by Jelena - a very pleasant young lady who clearly loves her work as a guide and it showed as she led us around the huge palace at a relaxed pace while providing historical context and interesting facts on the many buildings and religious institutions that comprise the palace grounds. He also took us to the basement level of the complex which was very interesting. Never boring! We were a small group of 8 and she spoke very clearly in English to us. She makes a great Free Tour guide and highly recommend her!

“Great Tour with Jelena”
We had a great tour in Split with tour guide Jelena. She started on time, took the time to find out where everyone was from and explained the basis of the tour of split and the Palace before we started on the tour. She was very knowledgeable about the history and I appreciated her insight to everyday Croatian life. It was obvious that she enjoyed being a tour guide and her sense of humour added to the experience, while learning about the history at the same time. After the tour, she provided some restaurant recommendations and of course was not hesitant to answer any questions throughout the tour. Well enjoyed and highly recommended. Well done Jelena!!

Jelena took us on this tour through the old town of Split and we were very lucky to be the only ones participating (off-season) so we had a private tour. Jelena has a very engaging and approachable personality - she encouraged questions, took her time for them and always provided thoughtful, insightful answers. This made the tour feel like a personalized experience for us rather than a scripted walk. Jelenas storytelling mixed with her humor just made the city’s rich history accessible and memorable. We had a lot of fun and learned quite a bit about the city we were staying in. After the tour, she even send some restaurant and activity recommendations to us via email which we could use for the remaining time of our stay. We can highly recommend this tour. Thank you Jelena, it was a blast!

“Wonderful History”
Jelena provided an excellent tour! No audio devices are used. We met at the golden gate (which was never golden) and she took the time to understand our interests. The tour had three people total. I took the tour in the winter season, so this was a small tour size. We walked around the palace and Jelena explained the architecture of the outside walls and the history that caused each change.
We proceeded along the ancient streets, leading to the iron gate. The tour went inside the gates, looked at all the points of interest. We left the palace through the bronze gate. Jelena then used the 3D maps (both current and ancient) to explain everything that we saw. She left us with lunch recommendations.
Jelena was absolutely wonderful, could not recommend more!!

“Outstanding guide! Diocletian palace”
We searched for a tour on a whim ad we were coming into our and stumbled on FreeTours and our guide, Jelena. We were impressed with her right away, as she was very engaging and knowledgeable. Great communication before the tour as well. We were happier with this tour than any excusing offered through the ship! Would definitely book again, especially with Jelena. Thanks so much, it was a great tour! Our whole group of 8 agrees!

“Fun and informative ”
We joined the free tour with Jelena. She was very knowledgeable and clear with her explanations, with lots of fun facts along the way. She commenced with an overview to provide the history behind what we were about to see. We moved around the old town stopping at various points of interest. She spoke quickly and didn’t waste time - it was perfectly paced. We finished the tour after about 1.5 hours at a scale model of the town where Jelena showed us where we had been recapped the main points. A very professional guide. I would highly recommend.
