What travelers are saying

"We've taken over 10 group tours using Cosmos and Gate1. This trip last month, 9000 was not very good. -During booking, incorrect information was given about airport-hotel transfers -The whispers (listening devices) didn't work from the get-go, so no whispers were used during the 13 day trip. - Porters are no longer hired to bring your luggage to and from your room. (Very elderly had to handle their own luggage. Our friends had to help many of them.) -A few days into the trip one couple left. At the end of the trip we found out they had covid. Cosmos did not let us know; a few people weren't feeling well and two of our friends then tested positive. -One hotel was awful and not even up to "budget" standards -Many of the stops had castles, churches... but were not included, so be sure to count that in when pricing.  don't plan to use Cosmos ever again. Gate1 is the best in my opinion. When my husband's passport was stolen, they assigned someone to go with him to the embassy, translate, etc...It was above and beyond what we expected  "

"BUYER BEWARE!!! This company has a policy that if THEY cancel your trip…THEY get to keep your money and you get a credit the company. They cancelled my first trip..found out the hard way about their policy. Booked a trip…then had left over money so booked another…which they cancelled…again. Surprisingly…this time they offered a refund, but only gave me back the money I had put down…not what was left of “my credit”. So now I am forced to do business with a company I no longer wish to, that picks and chooses when to follow their own policy!! There are plenty of other travel agencies with similar tours…don’t give these guys your hard earned money for them to keep."

What travelers are saying

"Sad to see a once good tour company stumble and fall into mediocrity. That’s Tauck post-Covid. My May 2023 tour of Normandy, Brittany and the Loire Valley was done on the cheap by Tauck, yet cost me thousands of dollars extra as a solo traveler on a special small-group tour. 

5-star hotels switched to 3 and 4 (without any compensation or explanation)… many more meals “on your own”… lots of “self-guided” tours of museums and chateaux and castles we knew nothing about… airline quality “rubber chicken” dinners, not in hotel restaurants, but in sad and isolated business convention spaces… poorly-trained newer Tour Directors (like the one on this tour) with limited experience traveling outside her tiny Canadian village or dealing with people from diverse backgrounds. She even confessed that this was a second gig job that took her away from her own business back home! You get what Tauck pays for, but unfortunately, not what YOU pay for. 

Speaking to a “Guest Relations” agent was comically pointless. She tried to make everything my fault, which I now understand is par for the course with the “new” post-Covid Tauck. Please reconsider spending huge amounts of your hard-earned money on a tour company that has lost its way and no longer delivers."

What travelers are saying

"I took the most amazing tour across Portugal and Spain through Bestway Tours last year. It was a 10 day tour visiting historic cities across the countries and was blown away by level of service and convenience the team provided. I've learned so much through the knowledgeable tour guides and enjoyed lots of delicious local food. I cannot wait to take another Bestway Tour in the future!"

"We purchased two backpacks from Rick Steves Europe. One of them arrived damaged and unusable. Their website says that you must contact them if you receive damaged merchandise. I have attempted to email them through their website and I have left 3 voicemails (nobody answers the phone, ever!) and nobody has contacted me back. At this point, it seems like I've been ripped off. Buyer beware. Extremely disappointed."

"This tour has amazing sites, good hotels in great locations, great pace BUT the tour director that was assigned to be with our small group added nothing to the experience. He did not give us any info, tell us about what we were seeing, give us any info at all. The only time he talked was to tell us when the next bathroom break would be. Apparently this is common for Globus to use retirees starting another chapter. Our guide was 76 and had no energy. Travel with Gate 1 or Intreped.... guides can make or break a tour."

Additional details

Split is the central and largest city in the Dalmatian Coast and the second largest city in Croatia. Visitors to Split use the city as their embarking city to tour the Croatian coastline or as a base point for day trips to the surrounding countryside.

Including a few days in Split at the beginning or end of your trip to Croatia will provide a look into how Croatia’s past and present has converged. Split includes activities for all travelers whether you are looking for history, food, adventure, or a relaxing stroll next to the sea.

Weather in Split, Croatia

Split maintains a typical Mediterranean climate, like most of southern Croatia. The summers are very warm and dry and the winters are cool and wet. The shoulder seasons are pleasant with plenty of sun and moderate temperatures. The weather in Split can vary from day to day. Including layers and an umbrella are essential items to include in your packing list.

The best time to visit Split is between May and October. These months are the high season for both Split and the Dalmatian Coast and provides the best weather for day trips, beaches, and tours. Try to avoid July and August as those will be the hottest and busiest months of the year.

Dalmatian Coast Cruises

Split is the largest city on the Dalmatian Coast, and thus is the where many Croatian and Dalmatian Coast guided tours begin. With its bustling harbor and port, the city maintains a constant flow of tourists and goods during the year.

Croatian voyages leave Split to explore the Croatian islands since Split is only a short trip away from a few of the most beautiful islands in the Adriatic -- Hvar, Broc, and Korcula. These tours are typically on large cruise ships or smaller yachts.

However, for travelers who are not traveling with large cruise lines or tours can still visit the islands. Ferries run between Split and many of the islands off the coast. For a more personal tour, you can also charter a boat from the marina to hop between islands. These boats range in style and price depending on how long your trip is and what level of comfort you are looking for.

Is Split Safe to Visit?

Overall, Croatia is a safe destination for travelers. Major crimes are low in Split. However, it is important to remember that since Split is a major tourist destination, pickpocketing is common, especially around the main attractions of Diocletian’s Palace and the Riva, Split’s waterfront.

Additionally, travelers should be cautious of scams and overcharging. This is most common in bars, restaurants, and tour guides. Make sure you pay attention to your receipt and it’s best to use an approved or certified tour company when looking for tour guides in the area.

Split for Families

Split has a wide variety of attractions for families of all types and interests. Well-supplied with history, museums, and beaches, there is plenty to keep everyone in the family entertained on your trip to Split.

1. Beaches

Split has countless beaches for families to enjoy the Croatian sunshine and fun. Many of the beaches are only a short walk from the old town and others, only a bus ride away. Some of the beaches are sandy and perfect for sunbathing, while others are more rocky and pebbly. A few of the most popular beaches are Trstenik, Bacvice, and Bene.

2. Walking tours

Split is made up of a conglomeration of different civilizations. The powerful empires of Rome, Venice, and the Ottoman Turks all inhabited this coastal area one point in history. Daily walking tours are offered by companies to show you around the old town and give you a peek into Split’s culture.

3. Marjan Forest Park

Marjan Forest Park is a forested hill that sits on the Split peninsula just a 20-minute walk from the old town. The park offers activities such as bike riding, hiking, kayaking, and rock climbing. Also next to the hill are some of the cities most important museums, such as the Museum of Croatian Archeological Monuments and the Ivan Mestrovic Gallery.

4. Froggyland

Froggyland is a taxidermy museum that showcases over 500 frogs taking part in everyday human activities. Frogs can be seen sewing, giving music lessons, and partaking in water sports. If you are looking for an unusual and quirky activity, then you will love the uniqueness of this remarkable museum.
