Zagreb 1: Funicular Ride + Inside the Cathedral + Architecture, Art & History (max. 12 people)

Explore Zagreb’s past and present on my Zagreb 1: Funicular Ride + Inside the Cathedral + Architecture, Art & History Walking Tour.

This tour includes:

Zagreb Cathedral. It is one of the city’s most iconic landmarks — soaring Gothic architecture, beautiful stained glass, and centuries of history all in one breathtaking space. We will take a few moments to explore, learn the stories behind its reconstruction and treasures, and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere. You will encounter a truly unusual alphabet, unlike anything you have seen before — its beautiful, intricate letters tell a fascinating story about Croatia’s cultural heritage. 

You will learn about two Hungarian kings who played crucial roles in Zagreb’s medieval past: King Ladislas and King Béla IV. We will uncover stories of legendary figures such as Nikola Tesla, the brilliant inventor and scientist, Alexander Karađorđević, the authoritarian Serbian king whose despotic rule shook the Kingdom of Yugoslavia to its core, as well as Marija Jurić Zagorka, Croatia's pioneering journalist and bestselling novelist, who challenged social conventions and became one of the country's most influential literary figures.

We will dive into Zagreb's fascinating architecture, including a hidden Nazi-era tunnel beneath the city. Along the way, we will talk about the Ottoman threat, peasants’ revolts, and the masters of Croatian naive art. 

Join me to experience Zagreb in a way you will never forget.

In accordance with Croatian regulations, the official price of the tour is €1.
