What you can expect

Your guide is a licensed Split tour expert, as well as a mental health professional and psychotherapist, working to increase visibility of the LGBT community and bring these stories to life through tourism.

Meet the Roman queer emperors and discover the stories of their lovers, meet Elagabal, history’s first known trans figure. Learn why same-sex relationships were legal for free men and slaves but forbidden for equal citizens, risking status and life.
Explore Diocletian’s Palace secrets: why the headless sphinx guards Jupiter’s temple, survive the human trap at the Golden Gate, and how a millennium-old layer of waste preserved the oldest underground complex.

Travel to the Middle Ages, when queer lives went into hiding. Discover how love endured despite social and religious restrictions, and the curse of the last Croatian king that legend says cost the state a thousand years of independence.

Fast forward to modern Split: see how the Homeland War shaped Croatia, and how Pride marches, activism, and legal reforms brought civil partnerships, adoption rights, and visibility to the LGBTQIA+ community. Celebrate the journey from invisibility to recognition through Pride and public advocacy.
