“We had an absolutely wonderful food tour in Split! Hani, our guide, was excellent—truly professional, knowledgeable, and passionate about both the food and the local culture. His enthusiasm made the experience engaging and memorable. The food itself was fantastic—fresh, authentic, and carefully chosen to showcase the best of Split’s culinary scene. Each stop offered not just delicious dishes but also great conversation and insights into the traditions behind them. Beyond the food, the entire experience felt like incredible value. Between the quality of the tastings, the welcoming atmosphere, and Hani’s outstanding guidance, this was one of the highlights of our trip. Highly recommend to anyone visiting Split!Read more”
