The two are connected by one of the largest surviving fortification systems in Europe, with 3km of walls stretching across the hillside between them. They were begun when the Republic of Dubrovnik purchased Ston in 1333 and set about building a system of defenses that would protect the salt pans that provided the town with its wealth. In total seven kilometers of wall were constructed, included three fortresses, 41 towers, 7 bastions and a system of moats at the Ston end of the wall.

Disembarking from your private boat in Split harbor, your personal English speaking driver will wait for you at Split harbor for your transfer to your hotel.

Split is one of the most visited destination in Croatia. The first inhabitant of Split was the Roman emperor Diocletian who started to build his palace in this friendly bay around 293 AD. After his abdication he withdrew to this luxurious palace of about 30 thousand square meters. The following turbulent centuries made the palace into a town first populated by the citizens of the nearby Salona, fleeing before Avars and Slavs.

The ruins of Diocletian's Palace, built between the late 3rd and the early 4th centuries A.D., can be found throughout the city. The importance of Diocletian's Palace far transcends local significance because of its level of preservation and the buildings of succeeding historical periods, starting in the Roman period, which form the very tissue of old Split. The palace is one of the most famous and integral architectural and cultural buildings on the Croatian Adriatic coast.

Today you will be taken on a magical ride with your guide to discover the history, culture and main town attractions of the historic center of Split. This Taste of Split tour is crafted uniquely in order to combine historic sightseeing with stops at three different restaurants, all with the purpose of illustrating the local cuisine with typical regional ingredients and contemporary views on authentic specialties. In the coastal regions of Croatia, the cuisine has a rather Mediterranean flavor, as you would expect, with lots of olive oil used in the preparation. 

This unique exclusive tour pairs amazing food and historic sightseeing.

Dalmatian cuisine relies heavily on fresh fish and seafood that are caught (or farmed) offshore. When ordering look for fresh sea bass, grouper, scorpion fish, pilchards, mackerel, squid and sea bream. Fish is usually grilled with local olive oil, garlic, parsley and lemon. Thin slices of smoked Dalmatian ham are often on the appetizer list. Lamb is popular either boiled or baked.

Enjoy your free day in Split.
