Best way to start a visit to Zagreb

Margaret_O, Apr 2026
This was a great way to get started on a visit to Zagreb. Marko was an excellent guide. He started the tour with a brief history of Zagreb, then keep us engaged and entertained for the entire tour. We saw a lot, while Marko helped us make plans for the rest of our visit.

Excellent tour.

Walter_M, Feb 2026
Robert was an amazing guide. He filled my walk with great information about his city. I really enjoyed the tour. Robert covered , current events, life, and current day. I have a much better understanding about Zagreb. ONE TIP for others: Google Maps and Apple Maps does not do a good job of tracking the meeting point. We met by the clock in the park.

Entertaining

Kristy_A, Dec 2025
Robert was a fun, knowledgeable guide. The tour is a great way to learn about Croatian history and see some of the major landmarks. Word of caution, due to 2020's earthquake just about everything is under construction, so you will not be able to go inside the cathedral or take pictures without a lot of construction materials in the way. Also dress warm!!!

Michelle_N, Oct 2025
The walking tour I joined offered a perfect blend of history, charm, and local flavour. We strolled through the cobbled streets of the Upper Town, past the iconic St. Mark’s Church with its colorful tiled roof, and learned quirky legends at the Stone Gate. Our guide was engaging and full of anecdotes—like how the Lotrščak Tower still fires a cannon daily at noon! The pace was relaxed, with plenty of time to soak in the laid back Zagreb culture. Whether you're a history buff or just love discovering cities on foot, this tour is a delightful way to get to know Croatia’s capital.

A Great Way To Learn About The City and Croatia.

Mike_S, Sep 2025
A great way to get the lay of the land upon arrival in Zagreb. Ivy was so knowledgeable and was willing to answer any and all questions. This city is big enough that without the help of a professional you would miss so many interesting things. A great investment of time and money to be sure.
