Overview

This tour was tailored to meet specific needs of those who are interested in contested history and contested contemporary issues of the area. By focusing on the historical and contemporary taboos, this tour aims at specific knowledge that moves away from classical tour narratives and focuses on ‘with no gloves on’ approach.
Although this tour aims at above mentioned specific knowledge, it is also done by covering Split's centre main sites and locations, so it is well fitted tour for Split's beginners and for the people who want to broaden their local experience. By joining this tour, you can blend all your interests in one experience since the tour escapes the idea of fitting into one category. It combines narratives about politics and geopolitics, religion, identity, demographics, sexuality, history, and economics. The rounded storytelling connects past and present of the area, creating deep insight and understanding of ongoing social processes.
