SUSTAINABLE SIGHTSEEING FOR EVERYONE
Fostering a more responsible way of sightseeing
By supporting our vision and joining our tours, you’re helping create a better version of tourism!
Dalmatia is our home. And the development of our company is focused on protecting our home for everyone: for us, for our children and for our guests. To demonstrate this in practice, Apodos launched a pioneer, eco-focused sightseeing product operating since the 2023 season:
Dalmatia for Nature Lovers- Countryside Half-Day Tour
The tour enables guests based in Split escape the city and immerse themselves in the beauty and richness of the natural treasures of Dalmatia. Guests can experience the Dalmatian countryside, learn about the local nature and the regional dalmatian products in a fun, educative and interactive way.
We organize a day every year, when our staff can volunteer for the well-being of our countryside. The activities involved include beach cleaning days, tree planting days. We welcome any volunteers who would like to join us. Our volunteer days are also a tremendous opportunity to raise the awareness of the locals regarding the necessity of sustainable development of our destination. If there is any particular place we can help out and do something good for the environment, don’t hesitate to send us your suggestions at the following email address: Info@apodos.com.hr
√Next Volunteer Day at APODOS is scheduled for: 31/1/2023, 28/2/2023 & 31/3/2023
We operate alongside local communities, residents, and small businesses to ensure the protection of the natural cultural, and environmental heritage. Cooperating with like-minded local partners, who also promote sustainability, is at the very core of our work. At the same time, we strive to increase the local sustainability awareness, and make sure the local voices are taken into account, when it comes to their destinations future development. We’re hiring locally and using local service providers.
Our staff is a team of amazing individuals passionate to make a positive impact in the local tourism scene. In particular, the contribution of our female colleagues throughout the past 15+ years of Apodos operating on the local market, cannot be expressed with words.
Therefore, it’s been always our main focus to adjust company policies to accommodate women’s needs. This way they never have to choose between the roles they play at work or in the family. At Apodos, we constantly provide ways to train, upskill, or cross-skill our female employees, while encouraging them to discover new skills that can be converted into a new job function.
Looking after our customer’s safety and well-being is the cornerstone of our operations. All our guides are locally certified and qualified. All our drivers are professionals with decades of experience. Safety is an absolute priority in all our daily operations. In that framework, it is our goal to deliver truly authentic sightseeing experiences, enabling our guests to experience the real Dalmatia, its nature, its people, culture, food, and historical richness.
In recent years Split has witnessed a rapid touristic growth. This centralization of tourism is not beneficial nor sustainable and creates multiple social problems.
We strive to foster a balanced relationship with nature and contribute to the protection of Dalmatia’s natural wealth. For example, our core products:
Both contribute to the dispersion of tourist resources during peak season, thus giving the area of Split a chance to ”breath”.
In addition, our Walking Tours of Split are tailored to be 100% No footprint!
This day tour is most definitely worth the trip. The park itself is too beautiful to fully capture in pictures. Crystal blue waters, waterfalls, and mountains -it was straight from a postcard. Our tour guide, Renato, was SO knowledgeable and friendly. We learned a lot of fun facts about Croatia and the park. Definitely recommend this touring company.
Such an amazing guide. Lot of anecdotes along the way to learn about the region with the dry balkan humor and very good, easy to understand English. Great trek in the park. The colors are out of this world. Strongly recommended.
This full day excursion was wonderful. We wanted to get highlights of Split and they delivered. Finding the bus and paying directly was very easy. Our guide Magdalena was full of knowledge and very passionate about the sites. She certainly made the history come to life for us.
Really enjoyed our bus tour, especially the walking tour of Split. Our walking guide was fantastic. Magdalena was so knowledgeable and made the tour so interesting. She was really enthusiastic and obviously loves her job. Would encourage you to go on this tour. Klis fortress is very impressive. The views are breathtaking.
