Hi there!
I’m Dalen — a local history teacher born and raised in Pula, and the guide behind AUGUSTUS WALKS. I’m passionate about sharing the rich history of my hometown through stories you won’t find in any guidebook.
I personally lead walking tours in Pula and Rovinj, while my colleague Tatjana leads our tours in Poreč. Together, we bring Istria’s ancient towns to life with engaging stories, hidden corners, and local legends you’ll never forget.
Each city is beautiful in its own way, with a unique atmosphere and character. Pula, Rovinj, or Poreč — let us show them to you like only locals can.

Tour description
Welcome to the Free Walking Poreč tour — a journey that unveils the mysteries of this ancient town.
The tour begins at Freedom Square, in front of the Church of Our Lady of the Angels — the perfect starting point for exploring Poreč’s layered history.
As we stroll through the historic streets, we’ll visit:
- Pentagonal Tower – A 15th-century Venetian defensive tower marking the old city entrance.
- Round Tower – Another fortress from the same era, now a café with one of the best views in town.
- Riva (Waterfront Promenade) – A scenic walk by the sea with views of the marina and islands.
- House of Two Saints – A mysterious Romanesque-Gothic building adorned with saintly reliefs.
- Euphrasian Basilica – A UNESCO gem from the 6th century, famous for its golden mosaics.
- Marafor Square – Once the Roman forum, still home to ancient stories and ruins.
- Temple of Neptune – The remains of a Roman temple dedicated to the god of the sea.
- Romanesque House – A rare example of preserved medieval residential architecture.
- Matija Gubec Square – A peaceful, charming square that feels like a local secret.
