The experience

Start at the Green market, where local farmers sell cheese, meat and produce. The belly of Split where you'll taste prosciutto, pancetta and a swiss chard pie before moving into the ancient streets. The walk takes you through Peristyle Square, the main courtyard of Diocletian's palace with its Egyptian sphinx and Roman arches still standing after 1,700 years, then through Pjaca, a square that layers different historical periods into one small space. Your guide points out the bronze statue of Gregory of Nin, the work of Croatia's greatest sculptor, as the route unfolds through medieval passages and hidden corners.

At traditional taverns along the way, you'll order and taste octopus salad, pasta with mussels and clams, gnocchi with truffles, and beef sausage ćevapi: each dish paired with local wines and spirits. The tour includes a glass of white wine and loquat grappa, plus an extra glass of red wine if you book the afternoon departure. Ingredients shift with the seasons, so what you taste depends on when you go. The guide knows what's fresh and what the kitchen has that day. Homemade gelato closes the loop.

The pace is three hours of walking and eating, not rushing. You need an empty stomach to start and a moderate level of fitness to keep up with the route. Wheelchair users can join (all areas are accessible), and children from five years old travel with an adult. If you have food allergies or dietary restrictions, let the operator know when you book so the guide can steer you toward dishes that work.
