I am a dedicated educator with a background in anthropology and geography, as well as a passionate tour guide for many years. Holding a degree in anthropology, I bring a unique perspective to the classroom, blending cultural insights with geographical knowledge to create engaging, interdisciplinary lessons. As a geography teacher, I strive to inspire students to explore the world, understand diverse cultures, and appreciate the complex interplay of human and environmental systems. My experience as a guide adds a practical dimension to my teaching, helping students connect theory with real-world exploration.

Tour description

 

For the intellectually curious, daring enough to explore beyond the surface.

This isn’t your typical Split tour. While we cover the city’s most iconic spots in the historic center, this experience unravels their stories in a way no guidebook dares to reveal. Guided by a cultural anthropologist, you’ll dive headfirst into the hidden currents shaping Split, from deep-rooted political tensions and provocative religious questions to the impact of tourism that few discuss.

Is Split’s reputation as a "problematic city" justified? Are there secrets lurking behind the picturesque facades? Why do so many subjects remain taboo here? With each step, we’ll confront these questions, bringing you face-to-face with the realities that make Split both intriguing and enigmatic.

This tour peels back the layers to reveal Split as it truly is—complex, untamed, and raw. Perfect for those looking to dig deeper, it combines the beauty of the city’s main sites with a sharp, unfiltered look at its most controversial aspects. Prepare for an experience that’s equal parts thrilling and thought-provoking, designed to leave you with stories few have heard and insights few could imagine.
