Jelena - a fantastic way to start our Croatia touring!
Samir_S
, Jul 2022
Jelena was a fantastic tour guide and the best way to start our Croatia trip. She showed us around the Palace and surrounding streets, shared the history of Croatia, and gave us lots of tips for our future destinations. I was traveling with kids 13 and 11 years old, and Jelena was incredibly engaging to them as well. She was a teacher in a previous life, and that nurturing/educational way about her comes through. We really enjoyed our trip with her and would recommend her w/o reservation!
An awesome walking tour of Split!

Correspondence with my guide prior to tour was excellent, unfortunately, on the day of the tour my planned tour guide, Jelena was unwell, but organised another tour guid. Her name was Ina and she was fantastic. She was very knowledgable and passionate about Split and very considerate to my daughters and I in the heatwave. We enjoyed the tour and learnt a lot Split from her.
Don’t miss this one!

I had such an enjoyable morning with Jelena, touring the maze of streets of Old Split. Jelena’s tour is the sort that leaves you with a satisfaction that you’ve got a proper feel for a place rather than just ticking it off your list. Jelena was great company.
Awesome tour!

This was my first time in Split and I was so excited to see the Diocletian Palace. This tour did not disappoint! From the moment I booked, Jelena was extremely communicative. I received a text from her right away confirming the tour date and the meeting location and time. She reconfirmed a couple of days prior the tour and she met us promptly at the agreed location.
Jelena was very informative and fun. She showed us all of the top spots in the Palace and took us around the beautiful streets of Split. She made sure to point out the best locations for photos and she balanced her narrative with a good bit of history and modern information. At the end of the tour she recommended some great lunch spots and a cool hike.
As a cruise ship passenger, this tour was the perfect amount of time. We were able to complete the tour, hike to the top of the Marjan hill and have a leisurely lunch before returning to the ship. I highly recommend booking with Jelena!
Tons of fun

Jelena was fantastic as soon as we booked. She was in constant contact with us and was extremely flexible to fit our schedule.
Not only was she extremely knowledgeable about the extensive history of the area, she told us where the best cafes, restaurants, and chocolate places were to go. Additionally she helped us avoid tourist traps and even directed to the place with the best exchange rates.
She is very personable and fun to hang out with. We had a great time.
I suggest doing this tour early in the trip to get thoroughly aquatinted with city.
Hugely enjoyable morning

Jelena is a natural storyteller and made the Diocletian palace come to life. But her intellect and curiosity meant she was able to update us on politics and the economy too. Given this was our first trip to Croatia, we really appreciated the breadth of her conversation.

Our guide Jenice was the best guide, perfect knowledge of everything she talked about, very well mannered, spoke beautiful English and was very kind and helpful
Thank you!
Vinka was excellent. I would have liked to spend a little more time getting to know the city outside of Diocletian’s Pal

Hearing Vinka’s perspective on the transformation of Split over the last thirty years and the urban history of the neighborhood that evolved within the walls of Diocletian’s Palace.

A great tour in Split!

The private tour made it easier to maneuver through the large crowds and get an appreciation for Split. Jelena is friendly and knowledgeable and does a great job of explaining the history and pointing out things you would have not noticed on your own or in a large group. She also gave great advice on restaurants and other things to do while in Split. Highly recommend.

This was one of the best tours ever. Let’s start by saying that the guide, Jelena was the best ever. Spoke perfect English, was personable, entertaining, intelligence, and gave the most interesting tour ever. She found us and knows everyone in split. This make the tour even better. She showed us everything that was possible to see in the 3 or so hours. We learned so much.
Fantastic!!!

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
