Absolutely Unforgettable Experience

5.00⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Unforgettable Experience! We had the most incredible private tour with Mario to Klis Fortress and the Vranjača Caves — a true highlight of our trip to Croatia! From start to finish, Mario was friendly, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. His passion for the region's history and natural beauty really brought everything to life. Klis Fortress was breathtaking, not only for its panoramic views of Split and the Adriatic Sea, but also for the rich history that Mario explained so vividly. The Vranjača Caves were like stepping into another world. Mario made the experience even more special with fascinating insights about the geology and local legends tied to the caves — things you’d never get on a group tour. What really stood out was how personalized the tour felt. Mario took the time to tailor the pace and stops to our interests, making us feel like VIP guests rather than just tourists. Highly recommend booking this tour if you're in Split. You’ll leave with amazing memories, stunning photos, and a deeper appreciation for this beautiful part of Croatia. Thank you, Mario! Mario can be contacted directly at RD Travel [email protected]

5.00We LOVED our private tour with Mario! He picked us up directly from the hotel. We got to Klis' fortress early, so we had the site to ourselves. He explained the story really well, it was super interesting. We then went to Stella Croatica (olive oil museum). We enjoyed seeing the creation process, but even more taste the products and bring back some for our loved ones. Finally, we visited the cave of Vranjaca. This is super impressive site! Again, we were almost alone, so we really got to take our time and appreciate the beauty of the place. Thank you Mario for a wonderful day!
Very Informative Guide!

5.00I'm so glad we booked our Croatia tour with Route Dalmatia. Mario was a wonderful guide and very knowledgeable of the area. Klis fortress was so much fun to go through with him. He was able to tell us so much about the history of the fort. Stella Croatica and Vranjaca Cave were also on our tour and very interesting. Personal service, a clean car and a great house are just a few of the reasons to book with Mario and Route Dalmatia.

5.00We had an exceptional experience on this private tour to Klis Fortress, Stella Croatica (the olive oil museum), and Vranjača Cave. Mario, our guide, was incredibly knowledgeable and engaging - sharing fascinating insights into the region’s history, culture, and natural beauty throughout the day. He was also a very safe and professional driver, and made everything seamless by picking us up and dropping us off right near our accommodations. The pacing of the tour was perfect - we had more than enough time to explore and enjoy each location without ever feeling rushed. Thank you so much, Mario, for a truly memorable day exploring the Split area. We would highly recommend this private tour to anyone visiting the region. An absolute highlight of our trip!

5.00We had one of the best private tour with Mario our guide and finally a friend in Croatia. Day started right in time and Mario with patience, professionalism and a pleasant yet informative conversation will guide through a fascinating trip tobKlis fortress with plenty to see then Stella Croatia where we experienced a true insight into the natural, cultural and gastronomic heritage of Dalmatian. We ended the tour with Vranjaca Cave a natural wonder beneath the earth. The tour is well organised and Mario takes care of his guests till the last minute. We spent a wonderful day which was planned well from the beginning to the end. Thank you Mario 😊

5.00It was a great tour we had. Mario was very kind and good company. He was very good at telling us about the history in the area, with personal enthusiasm. He gave us a relaxing and exciting tour around the fortress, building up the history and information in a clear and understandable way, you wanna hear how it goes on. At Stella9 he waitet patiently for us while we had a tour at there olive oil museum. They have very great products with the opportunity to taste very good olive oil. At the cave it was clear he had been there before - of course one might think - but he enjoyed it himself it seemed and knew the landowner. The caves are a very special place. We recommend this tour. The places and history are interesting and exciting. Going with Mario is the first thing we have been telling our friends and family about. Your tour will be better with him.
