Included excursions
Cooking class and walking tour of Split
begin at a busy nearby market where local farmers sell their goods before taking a leisurely stroll along the promenade. See if you can spot where the fishermen proudly display their catch of the day. Then, it's time to roll up our sleeves and cook alongside a local chef to prepare lunch. We'll kick back and enjoy the tasty Mediterranean flavours as we savour every bite of our freshly cooked feast.
