About Split
In the area of Split, it is known that there were Greek settlements around the 3rd or 2nd century. However, the city's foundation is considered to be from the late 3rd and early 4th century when the Roman emperor Diocletian built his palace. Today, Diocletian's Palace, a UNESCO World Heritage Site remains the historic heart of the city.
Split, which is the second largest city in Croatia, has a long and rich history, which is even reflected in its name. Originally, Split was named Spalatum by the Romans. During the Middle Ages, the name changed to Spalatro, and the Italians called it Spalato. In the 19th century, the city was known as Spljet, before it was eventually given its modern-day name we know today.
This mesmerizing coastal city is also renowned for being home to the most Olympic winners per capita in the world. Split’s athletes have won around 100 Olympic medals in 11 different sports. While no one knows what is behind Split’s success in sports, it is believed that the locals of Split are just naturally talented. And maybe the special Mediterranean spirit you can feel even when you are just a visitor adds to it.
Split is the ideal city for your perfect coastal getaway, where you can not only relax on its fine-sand beaches but also explore the city’s rich historical heritage by visiting the ancient landmarks and museums that tell the stories from the past. Learn about the Spilt’s culture by tasting the Dalmatian cuisine and discover the nearby islands for an authentic Adriatic experience.

See Split from above
If you want to take a rest from the crowds, you should add Marjan Hill to your itinerary. As you make your way up with the birds chirping in the background, you will be greeted with the most beautiful panoramic view of Split. There are a few hiking and walking trails you can choose from, according to your preferences. Although there are restaurants and cafes, you might want to bring snacks if you travel in the off-season, as they might be closed.
Taste the Dalmatian cuisine
No trip to Split is complete without trying the Dalmatian culinary delights. Here are three dishes that you must add to your menu:
Peka: it is not only the name of the dish but also of the lid that is put on the bowl and gives this dish a specific flavor. It is made of slow-cooked meat (for example, lamb, chicken, or octopus) along with vegetables such as potatoes, carrots, and bell peppers.
Pašticada: a slow-cooked beef dish with a sweet and sour sauce.
Crni rižot: a black risotto that is prepared with squid ink (hence the name and color). A must for seafood lovers!
When is the best time to visit Split
Like most places in Europe, the shoulder seasons of spring or fall are the best time to visit Split. The weather is perfectly pleasant, there are way fewer crowds, and the prices are lower. May and September are the ideal months for outdoor activities, as the temperatures are mild and the summer heat won’t overwhelm you.
Summer (June to August) is peak season, but if you are mainly looking for a perfect summer vacation, then you might prefer to visit Split from June to August. Be aware that it is also the most crowded period, so expect packed beaches and higher costs for accommodation and other expenses.

“It was great!! Driving through the country really was a wonderful way to see everything. Nikica was kind, efficient, patient, and encouraged us to enjoy the trip and not rush. We have zero complaints and would absolutely book again.”

“The trip from Dubrovnik to Split was excellent! A relaxing way to get to Split and see some sights along the way without being rushed. Thank you for giving us a female driver, Tatjiana was lovely as a person and a safe, great driver. She engaged us in conversation and was knowledgeable about the area. And she also helped get our passports stamped at the Bosnia Herzegovina border. The stop along the way choices were good and interesting. I think an hour in Ston is a good amount, 30 minutes not enough. The Rizman Winery was a great stop for wine tasting and lunch and view! (need to book the experience directly with the winery) Mostar was also interesting and great for a coffee break. There are activities to do on the river (separate from DayTrip) which we didn't know about, so definitely do some research and check out those options if it's a hot day.”
“Last minute decision and we decided to use Daytrip for our travel from Dubrovnik to Split. It was excellent response time confirming our reservation. Driver (Antonio) was awesome, car was very comfortable and clean, and we felt very safe! We will definitely use this service in our future travel.”
“The trip was excellent. The communication was clear and easy to understand, and timely. Our driver was great, easy
to speak with (English was excellent), knowledgable, car was clean, felt safe and well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Daytrip again!”
“We made a trip from Dubrovnik to Split.
The service was more than amazing! Better than traveling on a bus, you make stops and continue visiting amazing places.
Slaven, our driver, was super kind, helpful and the best driver.
The van was big, with AC, water, super clean and comfortable.
The stop in Medjugorje was incredible too.
The attention before our trip via mail was clear and helpful
I highly recommend this service for sure!”
“We absolutely loved the service provided by Daytrip and have already recommended it to friends/family and plan on using it again on future Europe road trips. We used the service twice from Split to Dubrovnik and then Dubrovnik to Kotor.
The flexibility to pick our own schedule without having to plan around train/plane times and not having to be bothered with the hassles inherent in driving ourselves in a foreign country makes traveling easy. I was impressed with the company before even leaving home. The booking process on the site was simple. I merely selected the desired to-and-from cities at the times that were convenient for us and a beautiful itinerary instantly showed up with the cost for our family of four. I communicated with the company several times before the trip regarding schedule changes, traveling with our babies, and adding stops. My emails were always promptly responded to. Our driver from Split to Dubrovnik with a stop in Mostar was Siniša. He was fabulous. He had clearly been a tour guide for many years as he had a vast knowledge of the area and the tourist industry. He was timely, gave wonderful recommendations, was very friendly, reliable, patient with our babies, and had an apparent love for Croatia. We felt so blessed to be able to spend the day with him. We would love to see more of Croatia with Sinisa in the future.
We booked Daytrip again from Dubrovnik to Kotor with a stop at a winery, and yet again, the service was fabulous. Our driver, Dejan M. was fabulous. He was timely, friendly, patient with our babies, and provided an excellent service as we changed cities.
Daytrip went above and beyond for us before and during our trip. I am so glad this service is available.”
“Drive from Split to Dubrovnik with multiple stops along the way was fantastic!
Our driver went beyond the call of duty to talk to us about the local
culture and share insights into life in the countries we visited.
It really made for a really special day.
The driver and service was VERY RESPONSIVE to agenda questions and updates. Our driver was such a talented and professional human.
This was the best part of our trip to this magical land!!”
“Fantastic and reliable service. Mario, my driver picked me up on time and we had a fantastic/comfortable ride to Split stopping along the way at Mostar and Makarska. Lovely guy, polite and friendly. He opened the door upon pickup and drop off at stops and also helped me with my luggage. Definitely will be using mydaytrip again in the future and would highly recommend Mario as the driver. Great way to travel. Top service”
“Booked a private car from Split to Dubrovnik in late July. Booking online was easy. Immediate confirmation via email. Company was responsive to follow up information. Was contacted by my driver via text message the day before the trip. On day of trip, driver arrived on time. Drive was safe and smooth. Would highly recommend.”
