I’m Edi, a licensed guide with years of experience showing travelers the stories behind Croatia’s most beautiful places. I started guiding in 2017 with kayak tours, sharing the coastline from a unique perspective — sea, sun, and stories all in one. Since 2019, I’ve been leading walking tours, focusing on history, culture, and everyday life. I actually studied sociology, which didn’t land me a typical job — but it gave me something better: a way of seeing cities as living, breathing communities. That perspective naturally led me into guiding, where I love blending storytelling with real local insight, making history feel alive and relevant. Whether you’re curious about medieval legends, modern life, or where to find the best coffee in town, I’ll make sure your walk feels like more than just a tour — it’s a local experience.
