Most tours show you the Arena and the Forum. La Yugo Vita takes you somewhere completely different. You ride in a restored 1979 Zastava 101 — the Stojadin — through the Yugoslav-era history of Pula with a local guide who knows the city from the inside. The shipyard that employed thousands.

It turns heads everywhere it goes. People on the street stop and share their own memories of the same model. That does not happen on any other tour in Pula. Best suited for: couples, small groups of friends, history enthusiasts, cold war and Yugoslav nostalgia travellers, and anyone who wants to see the real Pula rather than the tourist version.

This is not a standard history walk. This is an intimate, heartfelt experience led by a local who actively lives the tradition. As a longtime member of KUD Marko Marojica from Župa Dubrovačka and a regular banner carrier in the Feast of Saint Blaise procession, I share stories that most guides simply cannot — because I’ve walked in the procession for nearly 20 years, danced the same steps, and worn the same traditional costumes. You won’t just hear about Saint Blaise — you’ll understand why he still matters so deeply to us today. You’ll learn about authentic folk costumes (including the famous golden vests with toke and heavy heirloom jewelry), the energetic Linđo dance, the soulful sound of klapa, and the living connection between the Old City and the surrounding villages.
