Split is a stunning 1700-year-old city home to unique historical monuments like the Diocletian's Palace, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Peristil, St. Doimus's Cathedral, and the Piazza. The City of Split has something for everyone, whether you prefer culture, fine arts, songs, music, or sports and recreation. Split also has its wild, natural side, which enchants many visitors. The Marjan Forest Park, known as the “lungs of the city”, proudly guards the urban center. The Marjan Peninsula is dotted with black pine trees, Mediterranean plants and herbs, centuries-old churches, and some of the most beautiful beaches in Croatia.
Join your local city guide and enjoy exploring this more than 1700 years old jewel. Visit the most prominent sight, the heart of the city, Diocletian's Palace. As the city emerged from the Palace, the tour gives the opportunity to visit this UNESCO-protected structure that has been home to people from the 3rd century BC till today. Once you visit the Palace, it will give you insight into ancient history and all the important sites within the palace.
As you discover the history of Split, you will also have a stop at a local tavern for a short introduction to Croatian Olive oil culture. Guided tasting of four premium Croatian olive oils is perfect for those who wish to have an understanding of the production and means of attaining high-quality olive oil. Olive oil is paired with fleur de sel, aged red wine vinegar, freshly baked bread from our oven, cow and mixed milk cheese, dry fig jam, and homemade tapenade.
After breakfast, meet your guide at the hotel and depart to visit the Krka National Park for a 1.5-hour drive from Split. The Krka National Park waterfalls are one of the most beautiful places in Dalmatia and are very easy to reach. As one of the eight Croatian National Parks, it has been under conservation since 1985. The tour continues to the park's majestic Skradinski Buk waterfall, which serves as the tour's focal point.
Including the submerged part of the river at the mouth, the Krka River is 72.5 km long, making it the 22nd longest river in Croatia. It springs in the Dinara mountain range's foothills, 2.5 kilometers northeast of Knin. The Krka is a natural karst phenomenon that features seven waterfalls and a total elevation drop of 242 meters. The travertine waterfalls of the Krka River are the fundamental phenomenon of this river. After your visit to the Krka waterfalls, you will visit Sibenik and its famous UNESCO-protected cathedral. Return back to your hotel, which is about an hour's drive away.

This was my first experience with Adventure Life - and I couldn't have been more pleased with the trip. The guides and local staff in both Buenos Aires and Uruguay were terrific - extremely helpful and accommodating. I really enjoyed meeting the friendly staff in Buenos Aires in person (I left my bags with them for the afternoon).

The response from Adventure Life to my first inquiry was prompt and promising. I worked with Jamie Broeckel, Trip Planner, via text, email, and phone calls- always extremely responsive and thorough with information and explaining the process to arrange a private tour for me to Malaysia Borneo. Within about week, the booking was complete and I made decisions because of Jamie's great customer service , friendly manner, and overall competence on behalf of the company's travel expertise. Now I have an itinerary, additional Trip Planner Assistants, several links for vital information for traveling to Maylasia, etc. Still many details for Sept. trip, but now the heavy lifting is done and I can enjoy the rest of the anticipation and research!! Thanks Jamie- you are amazing!!!!

The trip was not only memorable for the amount of animals we saw but also for the people and accommodations at the two camps where we stayed. Our first guide, BK, was a wealth of information about the animals, landscape and down to the plants and what they were used for. Everyday out was a learning experience with him. All the people at the camps were gracious and the food was excellent.
Our second camp in the Okavanga was just as good as the first as far as the staff, accommodations, food and animals. After our experience at the first camp we amazed that the high quality remained the same. Our guide, G, made sure we were able to enjoy every experience including a rush through the bush to witness a cheetah and an ensuing hunt that he heard over his radio.
In both camps there were enough guides out that if they saw something the other guides were informed which helped in seeing as much as possible. It was also nice that the concessions were large enough that we did not have vehicles following each other throughout the day.
Normally there is always something in a trip of this length that we think could be improved upon but this is the rare case where we cannot think of anything. From the time we left the States to when we returned it was one of the most hassle free vacations we took.
Perhaps emphasizing the use of the laundry facilities at the camps would be useful because of the luggage restrictions would be the only thing I can think of as an improvement to future clients.
