When visiting Pula you can't skip the beautiful Arena. It is one of the most important monuments in Croatia that has to be visited. Do you know that it was built at the and of one known Roman road? and that it is considered to be one of the oldest in the world! During Roman times there were around 260-ties Arenas like this one around the Mediterranean. Gladiators were professional fighters that had to follow strict rules. Their diet was very curious. But do you know the way their wounds were treated? And what was the reward for a winner? About this topic and more on my tour.

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. The workers' housing built as part of the socialist deal. Military zones still closed off today. A former army centre now home to artists and activists. The car is part of the experience. 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. Not suitable for travellers with limited mobility as the experience involves a vintage vehicle without accessibility adaptations.
