Itinerary
Day 1
Full 5-hour private shore excursion with pickup from the cruise area in Split. Includes a guided visit to Trogir then to Diocletian's Palace in Split, with private transport.
Meet & pickup at cruise meeting point (Domagojeva obala 17)
Your guide and driver will meet you at the prearranged spot near Domagojeva obala 17 in Split. Guide will hold a sign with your name. Short boarding and briefing before departure.
Tips from local experts:
- Confirm the exact pickup point and ship berth with the operator before departure; arrive at the meeting point 10 minutes early.
- Have a form of photo ID and your ship card ready for easy boarding and any port checks.
- If you use a mobility aid, keep it accessible and tell the guide in advance so they can assist during boarding.
Drive from Split to Trogir
Comfortable private transfer from the Split meeting point to historic Trogir (approximately 30–40 minutes depending on traffic).
Tips from local experts:
- The drive typically takes around 30–40 minutes; use this time to sit, hydrate, and store small bags under the seat.
- If you prefer a restroom or stretch stop before arrival, ask the driver — short stops can be arranged within the schedule.
- Wear a sun hat or light layers in spring; coastal breezes can change during the short drive.
Guided walk in Trogir (UNESCO)
Guided visit to Trogir’s historic centre. Stroll narrow cobbled streets and see the Cathedral of St. Lawrence (Radovan’s portal) and other Romanesque and Gothic highlights.
Tips from local experts:
- Streets are narrow and paved with cobbles — wear stable shoes and take your time on uneven surfaces.
- Seating and cafés are available around the main square for short rests; plan brief pauses to avoid fatigue.
- Accessibility is limited in some alleys and interiors; contact the operator beforehand if you require step-free routing.
Transfer from Trogir back to Split (Diocletian's Palace)
Private drive returning to Split's historic centre where the guided Split portion begins.
Tips from local experts:
- Expect a 25–35 minute drive back to Split; keep medications or items you may need during the afternoon within reach.
- If anyone in your party prefers a quieter seat or an aisle seat for easier exit, request this when boarding.
- Confirm any short comfort breaks with the driver to remain on schedule for the Split visit and return to ship.
Diocletian's Palace and Split Old Town
Guided exploration of Diocletian’s Palace complex, Saint Domnius Cathedral, and the Riva waterfront promenade. Time for photos, short rests, and light shopping at artisan stalls.
Tips from local experts:
- Stones and alleys in the palace area are historic and uneven; allow extra time when moving between sights and use shaded areas to rest.
- Saint Domnius Cathedral interior is reachable on level ground; the cathedral bell tower has many stairs and is not recommended for guests with limited mobility.
- For accessible restroom facilities and seating, the Riva promenade cafés provide easier, level access compared with some inner palace courtyards.
Return to cruise meeting point (Dropoff)
Private transfer back to the agreed ship meeting point at Domagojeva obala 17. Timed to return you to the port with a small buffer for boarding.
Tips from local experts:
- Reconfirm the exact drop-off location and any boarding time requirements with your guide before leaving Split Old Town.
- Allow a short buffer (10–15 minutes) when returning to the ship to complete any port procedures and reach your cabin.
- Keep your ship card and ID handy for disembarkation formalities after returning to the port area.
