After it, with a glass of local wine, we will have some tasty Soparnik, a unique dish protected by the UNESCO world heritage organization. While we stroll down the streets of the ancient city, we will enjoy some traditionally made prosciutto and then continue to the chocolate shop that even has a Guinness record for the largest chocolate bar in the world. Sweet for sweet, up to the oldest bakery to try the famous rafiol cake.

Whenever you are in Split, you shouldn’t miss the Fish market of Split called Peškarija. It is the second oldest in Europe, with original benches more than 120 yrs old. There we will teach you how to eat salted anchovies, something that is traditional marenda – Dalmatian brunch.
