Overview
*PRIVATE TOUR - only you and the guide!* Explore Split with a licensed guide and teacher with a Master's degree. My name is Sanja, I am a local, born and raised in Split and I would be delighted to show you the town where I have lived my whole life!
Since 2011, I have been working as a guide and I find it to be the best career choice for me because it combines my passions for learning languages and meeting new people. As I am a Split enthusiast, I specialize in that location and offer my tours there exclusively. My tours are available in English, Spanish, French and Italian.
I look forward to meeting you in Split!

If you are looking for an excellent tour guide- book Sanja
Published on May, 2025
Sanja is very knowledgeable and is a pleasure to spend time with. Her English is excellent. She was willing to make adjustments to our tour plan to accommodate our interests.
Her knowledge of history is excellent. She was also very willing to discuss current events in Croatia.
I highly recommend Sanja as a tour guide.
First Time Visitor
Published on Sep, 2024
Getting to know a new city is the best with a local. If you are lucky enough to enjoy the company of Sonja as your guide, she will provide both the highlights of the history of Split but also the details you are interested in. She knows Split as a lifelong citizen and was great at guiding us through the town and making recommendations for dinner and other tours. Thanks Sonja!!
Sanja is great!!
