What's included in the EUR 790 price?

The price covers the 7-hour private tour with hotel pickup from Split, guided visits to Trogir and Jurlinovi Dvori, wine tasting, and traditional food experiences. Confirm whether lunch/meals beyond tastings and transportation costs are included with the supplier.

Is Trogir really a UNESCO World Heritage Site?

Yes. Trogir is officially recognised by UNESCO for its exceptionally well-preserved Romanesque-Gothic architecture, Hellenistic street plan, and 13th-century Cathedral of St. Lawrence—one of Europe's finest medieval complexes.

What can I expect at Jurlinovi Dvori?

It's a working reconstruction of an 18th-century Dalmatian homestead where you'll observe and participate in traditional activities like bread baking (peka style) and wine tasting. Expect a rustic, outdoor experience; it's a cultural and agricultural site, not a restaurant.

Is this tour suitable for limited mobility or wheelchair users?

Trogir involves walking on uneven cobblestone streets; Jurlinovi Dvori is a rural farmstead with rustic terrain. Contact the supplier with specific mobility needs to confirm accessibility before booking.

Can I do this tour with young children?

Yes, though the 7-hour duration and rural farmstead setting suit ages 6+. Walking Trogir's streets is manageable for active kids; Jurlinovi Dvori's outdoor cooking and animals can engage children. Confirm if the supplier offers child-friendly pacing or shorter variants.

What is Babić wine and why is it special?

Babić is a dark red wine native to the Dalmatian region, especially around Primošten. Tasting it at Jurlinovi Dvori ties the wine to its local terroir and traditional winemaking heritage, offering context beyond a standard tasting room experience.

About this activity

Combine UNESCO-listed Trogir's medieval architecture with an immersive visit to Jurlinovi Dvori, a reconstructed 18th-century Dalmatian homestead where you'll taste local Babić wine and sample traditional wood-fired cooking. This 7-hour private tour from Split blends cultural sightseeing with hands-on food experiences rooted in authentic village life.

Immerse yourself in Croatia’s culture and traditions as you explore two typical Dalmatian villages, interacting with their residents and enjoying authentic local cuisine on this sightseeing tour.

Departing from Split, you will head to the Medieval town of Trogir, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and Europe’s best-preserved Romanesque-Gothic complex. Situated on a small island between the mainland and a larger island of Čiovo, Trogir offers a quintessential portrait of a typical Dalmatian town, characterized by its array of spectacular stone houses, palaces, churches, towers, and fortresses. Step back in time as you admire the town’s orthogonal street plan, dating back to the Hellenistic period, and visit the stunning 13th-century Cathedral of St. Lawrence, a Roman Catholic three-aisled basilica and the town’s most notable monument.

Continue on to acquaint yourself with a typical Dalmatian village, its inhabitants and traditions. You will drive inland to the Primošten area to a small picturesque village of Burnji. On the way there, you will pass by interesting landscapes and see the impressive transformations of this rocky terrain into an oasis of fertile, hospitable living. When you arrive at Jurlinovi Dvori, you will witness what life looked like in Dalmatia three hundred years ago and over a tasting of the local Babić wine you will feel the aroma of cooking above the flame or smell of the homemade bread baked under ~~the~~ an iron bell (the so-called peka style).

After visiting the village homes (some of which are several hundred years old), enjoy a refreshing rest in the shade of surrounding trees, while your hosts, wearing a national costume, serve some local specialties and a homemade wine.

Highlights

✓Explore Trogir's UNESCO World Heritage town: Romanesque-Gothic architecture, 13th-century Cathedral of St. Lawrence, and Hellenistic street grid

Insider tips

★Arrive early at Trogir to photograph the waterfront and narrow streets before midday crowds; the town's best light and quietest moments are before 10 a.m.
★Wear comfortable walking shoes—Trogir's medieval streets are stone and uneven; Jurlinovi Dvori involves farmstead exploration
★Ask your guide about seasonal produce and wine pairings; spring and autumn offer the best fresh ingredients and cooler temperatures for village exploration
★If visiting in summer, request shade stops during the inland drive; the Primošten area can be very exposed in peak heat

our guide Mateo sorted everything for us and a little local spot off the usual route was the highlight. On a rainy sunday so it wasnt too busy. Great if youre not super fit, and 6 stops in about 3 hours, and for our anniversary. Would book again no question.
