Truly incredible! We did the tour on our first day and it was perfect! It helped us get our bearing and really appreciate where we were walking for the rest of the trip. Viktoria did an amazing job! She personalized the tour for my husband and I because we really love history! Viktoria was very friendly and very knowledgeable! I couldn’t recommend her more! Viktoria also took the best photos of us and knew the best photo spots!

We thoroughly enjoyed our time seeing the Palace and the surrounds with Viktoria. She was easy to communicate with and was actually able to book last minute. Her communication style was great for both my husband and I and my 11 and 14 year old children. She was even able to engage my son, who was very grumpy at the start! We wanted to see the Synagogue and she brought us to visit, which was really a highlight for me. She introduced us to their volunteer who was a wealth of information. When the kids or my husband or I had questions, she answered thoughtfully and kindly, even when they were tough philosophical ones about religion brought by my 11 yo daughter! She brought us to excellent gelato and went over the time, escorting us to an out of the way restaurant where we were eating at the end of the tour. All in all it was an excellent way to see the area in a short amount of time (we were coming from a cruise) and to get to know some history in a really fun way! I would definitely recommend!
We a group of 20 had an excellent experience with our tour guide Viktoria during our visit to Trogir and Split on 25 and 26 March 2026. Her knowledge of Diocletians Palace was incredible. She explained the 1700 years history in a very easy to understand manner. In Trogir she took us through the narrow streets and made us see the the hidden architectural gems. She came across as a very friendly person. She was able to keep the attention of the group with her impeccable English and corelated things with the past history. I strongly recommend her to someone looking for a guide in Split and Trogir.
Victoria knows her job very well. Deep understanding of history excellent communication skills & very pleasant demeanour
Viktoria was an exceptional guide. She was knowledgeable, personable and fun. She made our visit to Split and Trogir a memorable experience.
Viktoria was the best tour guide in our whole trip in the cruise, we had so many tour guides from different towns and countries and Viktoria really stood out! She was very knowledgable of all the history of Croatia, and Split of course! She was passionate about it and made history and historic events very interesting and enjoyable even for my young children, that absolutely loved her! She was so kind, joyful, calm, patient and we felt as if we were her friends! Viktoria made us feel so welcomed in her town, and we definently really enjoyed the whole tour, the beautiful places we visited and overall her company! We loved Split because of Viktoria and we cant wait to come back! Her kindness with my children will never be forgotten! We all loved Viktoria! Thank you so much for such a beautiful day! Forever on our minds! Nina and familly from Portugal
We asked our concierge for a private historical tour guide for Split. He highly recommended Viktoria. She was extremely knowledgable, and very generous with her time. She was highly flexible in the type of tour she gave us and was able to delve deep into history for my husband and sprinkle in Game of Thrones for me. Viktoria is a wonderful individual, with a warm personality. We highly recommend Viktoria for anyone traveling to Split!
We had an excellent and very informative tour from Viktoria. Her energy and enthusiasm was infectious and it felt like we were being shown round by an old friend. The tour was extensive and we felt we saw so much more than looking round ourselves. We all enjoyed the tour and would thoroughly recommend Viktoria.

We really loved the time we spent with her! We now know so much more about this part of the world including special foods and places that are not to be missed. Thank you Viktoria! We hope to see you again in the future!
