Split Travel Blogs

Nick, Lucy, Moriah, Kate and I rented a car and we drove to Krka National Park. Al's directions to the hostel were less than perfect, but we managed somehow to find our way there. The highway infrastructure in Croatia seems really well developed, almost indistinguishable from the states. People in …

Visiting the old town in Split We woke up next morning by a soft knock on the door at 9am, outside the friendly girl from yesterday was happy to inform us that we didn't have to pack since we could stay an additional day. After the hotel breakfast which included a great cup of coffee we walked do…

Winter season in Split. It is time to make up town. Riva is under great reconstruction. Everything is changing. The prime purpose is to relay the asphalt properly. Of course there will be new landscaping involved and a new surface. Reconstruction was completed in May 2007. Inside of Diocletian …

After 3 and half hours ride, the bus dropped-off some passengers in Split and loaded other passengers to Dubrovnik. 30 minute stop over, I managed to snap some pictures around town. Split is beautiful coastal town with the usual marina-looks of most coastal cities around the region.The bus continue…

After finishing uni, I decided I needed to do something before I had to start working loads so my boyfriend and I booked a trip around eastern europe, starting in Croatia, and travelling through Bosnia, Hungary, Slovakia and finished in Czech Republic

I really enjoyed my day at Split even if we were mostly woundering around. Our first goal was shopping but that did not work out so well as stores were closed pretty early for a Saturday (around 2 pm)! So you shoppers beware.. get there early as from what I have seen there is some nice sh…

So!!! Things are much better. Much much better. After staying in some old woman's bedroom on my first night here, I went to Split Hostel. My haven! This place is awesome. The girls who run it are from Australia and are just the nicest people. Last night, I dormed with an Aussie girl who was here to…

I spent 8 months in Bosnia on a research fellowship for graduate school. It was a great experience and I got to travel around the region quite a bit. I'd highly recommend the Balkans if you are looking for adventure, hospitality, great food. It is also gentle on your wallet. Enjoy the photos.

Upon my early arrival in Split I decide to flip a coin with Fate.  Metaphorically speaking.  It’s only 15 Kuna (£1.50) per 24 hours baggage storage at the train station and there are plenty of comfy enough, white wooden slat benches lining the main harbour promenade that sleeping …

View of Split.. from mountain Mosor above the city

When I booked the place on the Stuis boat, I received a pretty detailed letter about the trip and life on board. One of the things was, that I should arrive by 1 p.m. And so I did, just to find two of my fellow sailors and one guy who was at the end of his trip, and now just hanging out there …

As soon as we walked off the ferry in Split, a woman came up and asked if we needed accomodation. Her english was good, and it was 100 kunas (about $20) each per night, so we went with her. The apartment was in a good location, very close to the ferry, but was basically a dump. It smelled badly of …
