Our list of the absolute best Split food tours
1. Wine & Dine Gastro Tour
Dalmatia is famous for its wine production, and the best way to try fantastic wines is to go wine tasting.
But beyond simple wine-tasting experiences, we highly recommend the Wine & Dine Gastro Tour. It combines wine tasting with a tasting of delicious local food through Split’s Old Town.
The guides on this tour are also knowledgeable about Split’s history and will share fun details and facts during the walk. Plus, if you book the morning tour, you can try some delicious stuff at Pazar, the Green Market.
Want a more focused wine tasting experience?
We recommend the Educational Wine Tasting “Split & Sip” experience, which takes place in a wine shop in the historical area.
2. Vegan Culinary Walking Tour
Since Dalmatian cuisine uses lots of seasonal vegetables in its dishes, it’s easily customizable to vegetarian and vegan diets.
So if you’re looking for a veggie food tour, look no further than our recommended Vegan Culinary Walking Tour, which takes you through the heart of Split’s Old Town, trying out delicious vegan dishes.
As locals who are vegetarians, we know that there are wonderful vegetarian options hidden in our diverse Croatian cuisine. While often ignored, they’re there, and they’re delicious!
We had no issue eating vegetarian/vegan throughout our travels in Croatia.
3. Food Tasting Walking Tour
Another great combo tour option we recommend in Split is the Food Tasting and Walking Tour.
You will explore a selection of local dishes in the historical area while a knowledgeable guide shares the history behind the cuisine and the city.
If you want to do just one walking tour in Split, this is the one!
4. Krka Waterfalls and Food Tour Combo
Beyond the standard food tours, one great alternative we recommend while in Split is the Krka Waterfalls & Food/Wine Tasting Tour. This tour combines the visit with a food and wine tasting experience in a family-run winery.
It’s a great way to combine a day trip to Krka Waterfalls, a must-visit place from Split, with a culinary experience trying delicious wine, local cheeses, olive oil, spreads, and more.
5. Cooking Class
Lastly, if you like cooking passionately like Matej, or would like to give it a try, then don’t miss out on booking a spot in the Split Cooking Class.
You will not only make delicious food but also try some fantastic wine and snacks.
The chefs who will oversee your cookery have all worked in some of the best restaurants in Croatia, so you know you’re in good hands! Plus, it means they will help you plate the food so it looks like a masterpiece.
If you love food, this is a must-do food tour in Split! And yes, vegetarian options are available.
Final thoughts
