Walk Split’s old stones where Game of Thrones came alive

You’ll walk Split’s ancient streets and duck into Diocletian’s cellars with a local guide who knows both Game of Thrones lore and real history inside out. Hear behind-the-scenes stories, stand where dragons once “slept,” and try not to get lost in all those stone corridors (Ana will keep you on track). It’s two hours that leave you seeing Split differently.

The Experience

The first thing I noticed was the echo — our footsteps in Diocletian’s cellars bounced off the stone like we were in some secret underworld. Our guide, Ana, grinned when she saw my friend clutching her Daenerys notebook (she said she’d seen everything from dragon plushies to full-on cloaks). It smelled a bit musty down there, but not in a bad way — more like old earth and candle wax. I kept thinking about how those scenes in Meereen felt so much bigger on screen, but here you could actually touch the cold walls where the Unsullied marched past. There was this spot where Ana pointed out “that’s where they kept the dragons,” and honestly, I got goosebumps. The light was weirdly golden that afternoon, sort of softening all the rough edges.

We wandered through Split’s old town after that — Peristyle Square was buzzing with locals and tourists, but Ana somehow carved us a path through it all. She’d slip little bits of real history between the Game of Thrones stuff (I didn’t expect to care about Roman emperors, but her stories made them sound wild). At one point, she tried teaching us how to say “Vestibul” properly in Croatian; Li laughed so hard at my attempt that even a passing street vendor joined in. The city feels layered — you’ve got this fantasy world on top of centuries of real life. It’s kind of dizzying if you think about it too long.

I still remember the coolness under those stones and the way Ana would pause before telling us which scene happened where — like she wanted us to guess first. By the end I’d stopped trying to take photos and just listened. If you’re even half a fan, or just want to see Split through someone else’s eyes for a couple hours, this Game of Thrones walking tour is worth it. The cellars especially — something about that place sticks with you.

What’s included

Your ticket covers entrance fees for Diocletian's Cellars—where so many iconic scenes were filmed—and you'll be guided throughout by a professional licensed local who really knows both Split's history and its time as Meereen. Just show up ready to walk; everything else is sorted for you.
