About This Tour
If you’re tired of tours full of numbers, names you can’t pronounce, and facts you forget by the next morning—this one’s for you. This walk is about stories. The kind you remember. I’ll tell you about the man who built this city—Diocletian. Not as a statue, but as a person. One of the most powerful emperors in Roman history, and one of the most complicated. You’ll hear about the people who lived inside these walls long after the empire fell—fishermen, traders, widows, workers, families. People like mine. People like yours. This isn’t a history class. It’s a walk through time with someone who lives here. No scripts. No umbrellas in the air. Just a conversation about a place I know well. It’s a slower, more personal way to learn about Split—with space for questions, stories you’ll actually remember, and honest local tips on what to see, eat, and skip while you’re here
