About Tour Guide Darko B.
Dear visitors, my name is Darko, I've been in love with Croatia since the first day of my life and my goal is to pass that love to You.
I was born and raised in Split, pearl of the Mediterranean sea and since forever I am fascinated by history, culture and nature. At the beginning of my career I worked in Croatian national theater and in Split city museum as an official tour guide and that experience with knowledge I got from my older colleagues helped me a lot and gave me a big impulse in becoming freelancer.
Today my full time job is producer of cultural events but my true passion is tour guiding.
As I am scuba diver, hiker and big fan of football, I incorporate all those hobbies and knowledge in my tours.
