What are people saying about Zagreb

Marian_F, Apr 2026

A walk around Zagreb

Our guide Petra was brilliant. She gave us an insight to Zagreb and Croatia which was interesting and showed us many sights that had been on our to do list. We were grateful that our group wasn't a large one as it meant we could ask many questions and could hear her over all other noises (as there was a demonstration that day in the square). She showed us the planet Venus which we would never have found (which wasn't on the itinerary) and really made the tour for us. I'd have no qualms in recommending a tour with Petra. She does more than just Zagreb as well so hopefully we can return and do those with her as well.

Fantastic Guided Experience

Our tour guide Maya was fantastic. The car ride was easy and we got lots of great recommendation about what to do to make the most of our time in each location and Zagreb. The car ride is quite long but comfortable and they break it up with the intermediate stop of Ljubljana. Lots of free time to explore each location, they answered all of our questions about what best to do and gave us a real feel for croatia as a whole.

Great experience!

We had a wonderful day trip to the best of Slovenia, visiting Lake Bled, the castle and the capital Ljubljana. We were a group of 10 and the tour operators were extremely accommodating to our needs. They adjusted the departure time from 8:30 to 6:00 am to fit our schedule, which we really appreciated. At the end of the tour, three of our friends were even dropped off directly at the airport, which made everything very convenient. We are very satisfied with the service, this is a company that truly puts its clients first. Highly recommended!

Great tour! Well organised !

It was a marvellous day trip with our guide Marco who shared the history of Zagreb and the places we visited with the group making the tour even more interesting. He kept good pace, not rushing us and giving us plenty of photo stops. Overall the walking tour was great and the boat trip was fabulous as well. We enjoyed the little stop at the tiny village with enough time to walk around and grab a coffee. The drive through Croatian countryside was amazing. The drive was smooth and safe. Overall a fantastic tour.

Food, drink & walking tour

We did a late Nov. tour, which started @ 16:00, so we experienced not only the city lights coming on, but the Christmas lights too. Really enjoyed Damjan’s wit & knowledge of the city. Four nice choices of wine & food locations along with interesting & historical facts & sites of the city walking tour. Thank you, Damjan! I would recommend this tour.

Beautiful places to visit

Rastoke village is a must see!! It’s in a fairytale setting. Plitvice Lakes are so beautiful. Our guide, Dinko, did a great job and was very kind to me as I had a sore ankle and could only manage the lower lakes. My husband did the upper lakes and thoroughly enjoyed it.

Our first combined sightseeing and transfer tour was a wonderful experience. Pickup from Zagreb was punctual, the van comfortable, and the 2.5-hour drive smooth. The 8 km hike through Plitvice Lakes’ stunning waterfalls and lakes, plus a short boat and bus ride, was unforgettable. Lunch had vegetarian options, and transfer to Split was seamless. Excellent service from Gray Line guides Sanja and Mia—highly recommended!

Best City Tour Ever!

I loved this bike tour with Zeljka, she was so lovely and informative giving great insights and stories about this beautiful city. I learnt so much so quickly and it was a great way to get an overview of Zagreb. I’ve only done walking tours before and a bike tour is so much better. You get to see so much more, much more easily and it’s nice that have a breeze on your face.
