    Fell in Love with Split

    Wow what a great time we had in Split! 4 and f us booked a Private Food and Walking tour in Split. We come in for the day on our cruise ship and had no idea what to expect or even what to do. Dana met us and started us on an informative tour of Diocletians Palace. From there we walked through the market and discovered local prosciutto, cheese, honey and a blueberry liquor. She pointed out many historical sites along the way, taught us about local culture and even gave us time to shop for local olive oil. A quick stop for chocolates, a bite at a bakery then an incredible sit down lunch with local seafood dishes and wine! She even pointed out the best gelato in town for after our lunch. We had so much fun and would highly recommend this experience. Dana was like meeting an old friend showing off her beautiful town.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for sharing this lovely review! We’re so happy to hear you had such a great time exploring Split with Dana. It sounds like the perfect day — history, culture, local flavors, and a bit of shopping too! Dana truly enjoys making guests feel at home, and it's wonderful to know the experience felt like discovering the city with a friend. We really appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back to Split someday!

    Fantastic and testy introduction to Split!

    This tour is a great introduction to Split and Croatia’s history. It is a good combination of history and Croatian cuisine. Dana was a great guide! We typically do a food tour on our vacation and this was one of the best!

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re so happy to hear you enjoyed the mix of history and cuisine, and that Dana made the experience one of your best food tours. We truly appreciate your recommendation!

    Private Tour of Split with Food & Wine Tasting: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Split.

    How much does Private Tour of Split with Food & Wine Tasting cost?

    +

    Prices start at $285 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Split usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Private Tour of Split with Food & Wine Tasting take?

    +

    Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Split is not rushed.

    Is Private Tour of Split with Food & Wine Tasting worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 23 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Split, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Private Tour of Split with Food & Wine Tasting?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Private Tour of Split with Food & Wine Tasting suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Private Tour of Split with Food & Wine Tasting?

    +

    Around 8 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Split can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Split and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Private Tour of Split with Food & Wine Tasting start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Split within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Split?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Split experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Split Walking Tour with Professor of History, Split Small-Group Walking Tour with a Magister of History, From Split: Krka Waterfalls, Food & Wine Tasting Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Split?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Split?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
