Hello, dear walkers! I am a local guide, born, grew up, and live in Zagreb all my life - in the same city, but in two countries :-) In 2009 I become a licensed tourist guide for Zagreb city and Zagreb County, in English and Croatian languages. Since then, I have been conveying this love for Zagreb to people from all over the world, presenting my city through interesting stories and facts, with fun, but in professional way. As a big fan of travel, I got a chance to know many countries on almost all continents, but every time I return to my city, I fall in love with it again.
Immerse yourself in the history, culture, and everyday life of Croatia's capital.
See the most important landmarks of Zagreb Upper Town (built in medieval time) and Lower Town (built on turn of centuries 19th to 20th) and listen interesting, nice and uncommon stories.
Since the groups are small (up to 10 people), you will have a chance to ask anything that might be interesting to you.
The tour includes:
Lower town
Upper town
The tour ends in Tkalciceva Street, close to the main Zagreb square - Ban Jelacic Square
Let's walk, talk, and have fun together :-)
