ABOUT US
Our Mission
At Split Food Tours, we believe that food always brings people together and that there is no better way to form a connection than over sharing a meal (or in our case many meals).
Our mission is to always strive to provide an amazing experience for our guests while supporting our local food partners and the Split community we are part of.
After spending a few years traveling the world, we have been on a fair share of food tours, some of which to be honest we were disappointed with. Our main goal is to avoid that scenario at all costs, by ensuring you do get your moneys worth. By the end of our tour we want you to leave with a big smile, great memories, a full belly and zero regrets about choosing us…
Meet The Team
Dino Mestrovic
Owner & Tour Guide
Dino was born and raised in Split and has a background in sailing, where he worked as a skipper for almost a decade. Almost as paralleled as his love for the Adriatic Sea is his love of food. He founded Split Food Tours, as a way, to introduce visitors to his city’s incredible food scene. In his free time, he loves to cook and attend every ‘Hajduk’ (local football team) game he possibly can.
Emma Mestrovic
Owner & Operator
Emma is a world traveler (originally from Vancouver, Canada). In 2019, she fatefully booked a sailing cruise around the Croatian Islands, where she met her future husband, Dino. Together they came up with the idea to start a guided food tour in their favorite city of Split. She loves to explore her new home, while attending Croatian language classes (in hopes that one day she can talk with her mother-in-law).
Tea Bozinovic
Tour Guide
Tea [ pronounced ‘Tey-a’ ] a local from Split has been a tour guide since her early college days. She has a real passion for her work and over the years, she has led tours across Middle Europe, Croatia and the Adriatic Islands. When she’s not busy showing visitors the sights Tea is an official Polish court translator and a loving mother to her adorable 2-year-old daughter…yet somehow she also still finds the time to squeeze in yoga, reading, and hiking in her free time!
