Split Holidays


europe
Split holidays offer intriguing ruins of ancient Roman palaces, cobbled streets with fascinating alleyways and a bustling waterfront filled with cafes, restaurants and bars.

The towering walls and captivating cellars of Roman Diocletian’s palace form the centre of the city of Split. Wander down hidden passageways and visit tucked away wine bars built into the palace walls. A walk through Split is like exploring a history book, with a surprise around every corner!

Further inland the lush walking trails and shimmering waterfalls of Krka National Park make a perfect day trip out of the city. To the west, the vast archipelago of the Dalmatian Coast, where the neighbouring islands of Hvar and Korcula are well worth a visit and are perfect for a couple of days relaxation beside the sea.

Trailfinders offers a range of Split, Croatia holidays and our expert travel consultants are a mine of information about what to do here, often with first-hand travel experience. Whether you want to explore Split on a city break or as part of an island hopping holiday – they are the perfect people to ask.
