TheOneToGo
Split's food story starts at the Pazar green market and runs into the lanes inside Diocletian's Palace, where Dalmatian cooking shows up the way locals actually eat it.
Our pick
Your guide threads you from the market through the palace backstreets to spots only regulars know, stopping to eat rather than just look. You taste peka slow-cooked under the bell, fresh Adriatic seafood, sheep's cheese, Dalmatian prsut, and local wine at each stop, leaving with a real sense of this coast's table rather than a tourist version. The market is best read by someone who knows the sellers, which is what makes the difference between browsing and eating well.
If our pick doesn't fit
A condensed small-group walk covering Dalmatian staples quickly, good for those with limited time or a smaller budget.
Weaves Diocletian's Palace history into the eating, so you learn the city as well as taste it, at a comparable price.
