Where Khaleesi's Dragons Were Chained: A Split Walking Tour

You walk through Diocletian's Palace with a local guide who shows you the exact Game of Thrones filming locations: the Dragon's Dungeon basement, the Peristyle Square, the Golden Gate, and the Vestibul. Entry to the basement is included, as are visual materials and maps so you can see the scenes as they appeared on screen. The tour ends at the Riva Promenade and takes 2–3 hours.

The Experience

The Peristyle Square is already filling with people when you arrive — locals cutting through, tourists stopping to photograph the columns, and your guide waiting with a map and a knowing smile. This is where Diocletian's Palace opens up, where the real royal square sits at the heart of Split, and where Game of Thrones filmed some of its most recognizable scenes. You're not here for a generic palace walk; you're here to see the places where the show actually happened, and your guide knows every corner where a camera stood.

The first real moment comes when you descend into the basement — Dragon's Dungeon, the Roman cellar where Khaleesi's dragons were chained in the series. It's cool down there, stone walls pressing in, and the space feels exactly like what you've seen on screen. Your guide walks you through the visual materials, pointing out the angles, explaining how the Romans built this place nearly two thousand years ago and how it stood long enough for a TV crew to film inside it. The basement entry is included, so you don't have to buy a separate ticket or figure out the logistics yourself. After that, you move through the Vestibul — Diocletian's reception hall, all high ceilings and Roman grandeur — where the Sons of the Harpy fought the Unsullied. Your guide shows you the footage, the stills, the exact spots where the action happened.

The walk takes you past the Golden Gate (the entrance to the city of Mereen in the show), down the street where the Kill the Masters scene played out, and through Diocletian's dining room and walking area. There's a GOT museum along the route if you want to stop, but it's optional — your guide will let you decide. The whole thing moves at a pace that lets you actually look, ask questions, and get a sense of how Split itself became a character in the story. By the time you reach the Riva Promenade — the living room of the city, as locals call it — you've walked through layers of Roman history and television history at the same time, and your guide is still there if you want to ask more about Split, Croatia, or where else the show filmed.
