Mijo was a first class guide. A local man with a great, dry sense of humour while being very self-effacing. He works well in a small intimate group size of never more than ten people. No huge groups with ear-pieces and lanyards, like those imposing cruise tours that block entrances and narrow walkways. Plenty of good humour and a very interesting amount of useful information too, along with a post-walk email with numerous activity and restaurant recommendations as well: super helpful!

From the moment we were met by Mijo (our tour guide) we were in excellent hands. Mijo welcomed all our questions, the tour was at a relaxed pace and we really felt that we saw and heard about the history of Split, that we would never have discovered from anywhere else. Even little tips, like where to get the best coffee, gelato, bits to eat (at non eye watering prices). We had the best time!

Our walking tour with Mijo was fun and informative. He was flexible when we asked to see certain things and he was very knowledgeable. Great way to see the city!

It was a great way to learn about the history of Split and those who have lived here through the centuries, from Ottoman to Jewish communities. Being a small group tour in a crowded city, made it easy to get from place to place and hear the wonderful stories shared by our guide.

Mijo is very knowligible and also funny. Great voice, so you ear very well. Lots of history covered here, you learn a lot. Not a long walk, easy. Small group so asking questions is easy. I highly recommend.

Mijo is a wonderful tour guide & recommended. His love of history, architecture and present day are showcased in this tour. The top selling feature is his tours are only 10 people- tours become a conversation rather than a spiel. Mijo gave us many recommendations for further exploration in the beautiful city of Split.
