• Day 4 : SPLIT

  On our morning tour of Split with a local historian and ‘Game of Thrones’ expert, we discover exciting filming locations. The palace was built in the early 4th century as a retirement estate for the Diocletian, who spared no expense, importing marble from Italy and Greece, and columns and sphinxes from Egypt. Diocletian’s Palace was used as the setting for several scenes in the city of Meereen. We follow in Daenerys’ footsteps as we explore this 1,700-year-old structure, visiting the throne room and the dungeons where she kept her dragons. Today the palace is a living monument, with residences and colorful shops that started to occupy the ruins of the palace around the 7th century. This afternoon, continue your own exploration of Split, sample fresh local seafood, or relax on the beach.

The city’s defensive walls are world-famous and second largest in the world after the Great Wall of China. After lunch on your own and time to explore the town, our journey continues to Trsteno Arboretum, the oldest arboretum in this part of the world. It was built in the late 15th century to house plants and seeds brought back from foreign countries by the Gozze family. The aqueduct used for irrigation purposes is still in use today and the stunning belvedere pavilion overlooking the Dalmatian Coast and the Adriatic Sea were the gardens of the Red Keep.
