Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"Darko was a great tour guide. He was friendly and knowledgeable and had just the right balance of guiding us, but also giving us alone time to explore. Definitely would book with him again"
"Darko was a fantastic tour guide! He worked with us to customise our tour with only 4 hours to spare before an international flight! We got to see the beautiful view and medieval fortress of Klis, and were blown away by the amazing crystal cave that is a well known secret to the locals. Darko speaks fluent English and is so knowledgeable of the local history and culture. I definitely recommend Darko to be your next guide 🤩"
"Darko was very friendly, knowledgeable about all areas and questions asked, excellent with communication leading up to tour, flexible with changes we wanted to make and extremely accommodating I would highly recommend him! He also coordinated a driver for us whom was also friendly and did a great job. We felt safe and van was clean. Krka national park was incredible! "
"Darko arrived on time to pick us up in his very comfortable and clean car. Making location arrangements was easy and close to the cruise ship. Our first stop was the caves and these are not to be missed. They are incredibly impressive. Darko shared great insights about Split and Croatia on the short drive. We also visited the nearby fortress before heading back to Split for our requested “express” tour of the old town. He left us with a great lunch recommendation. Darko is all that is good about private tours. He takes his job seriously but doesn’t just talk dates and facts, there was context. We appreciated hearing about his story as well. Thank you Darko. Your tour was great!"

"Darko gave us a wonderful tour of the caves, which is highly recommended and not accessible by the bus tours. We almost had the caves to ourselves and it was breathtaking and so serene. Also a nice tour of the fortress followed by a taste of Split. Wonderful time. "
