Best of · SPLIT CASTLE TOURS
Every trip has one free day too few. These 4 split castle tours justify the slot, priced and timed so you can decide in minutes and get back to the fun part.
Ride an open-top red bus from Split to Klis Fortress, then explore the stone stronghold at sunset with an audio guide and free time. An English-speaking host such as Diana, Betty, or Aurora helps with directions and photos. Bring sturdy shoes, a light jacket, and about €10 for entry.
“The tour was beautiful! Diana was very kind and the views were absolutely breathtaking!”
Start at Stella Croatica for a guided olive museum visit, Mediterranean gardens, traditional tastings, and natural cosmetics. Then drive four minutes to Klis Fortress, where you explore at your own pace, see Game of Thrones locations, and take in wide views over Split. Guide Tin has led some visits.
“The guide at the olive museum was very good. We enjoyed the tour and the product sampling at the end, and purchased a few of our favourite items! The Klis Fort was self-guided, but well laid out for tourists to understand the history and GOT filming relevance. Not sure if it’s normal, but there were no crowds so it was easy to get good pics. Klis has a very high vantage point over Split and area!! We Uber’ed to the locations and back to port area easily. Good day.”
From Split, an English-speaking guide leads you through UNESCO-listed Trogir, Roman Salona, Klis Fortress, Hidden Dalmatia and Stella Croatica. Expect a full day with roundtrip transport, tastings, optional entrance fees, and little time for a sit-down lunch.
“Has a amazing day. Value for money is excellent! Our guide was lovely. Very friendly and helpful. I. Would highly recommend this trip.”
Start at Stella Croatica for a guided olive museum visit, traditional tastings, botanical gardens, and handmade cosmetics. Then explore Klis Fortress at your own pace, with sweeping views toward Split and the islands. Tickets cover both stops, but you must arrange your own transport between them.
“The Olive Museum was very interesting, and our tour guide was very knowledgeable. The tasting at the end of the tour was wonderful. Klis Fortress was very cool and this was a great combination tour.”
Pick a great one, a way in, or a shape of castle.
