Great Zagreb Old Town tour by Marko

We had a very enjoyable walking tour around Zagreb’s Old Town with Marko, who has lived in the city all of his life and is extremely knowledgeable about its history and mysteries, and is happy to share his knowledge with you. It was a private tour, so there were just the two of us, and so we could set the pace which was nice. Streets, buildings, statues, myths, … Marko knows it all, and his English is excellent! We highly recommend Marko and his tour.

Highly recommend Marko!

We often book walking tours and we highly recommend this one. Marko is dynamic, knowledgeable, respectful and friendly. Our family got to know the history of the Greb and the background of the mediaval towns. Marko avoided crowds and made sure we were in the shades. The booking experience was easy. We highly recommend! Thank you Marko!

Great value! Learned a lot

Zagreb was an amazing city and we enjoyed our time there more because of this tour. Our guide Marko was excellent. He was very kind, patient and considerate. He really let our group dictate the pace and focused on what we were interested in. He had great facts about the city and explained everything. It was a hot day, he was checking and finding shady areas for us to stand in while he explained everything we were seeing. He answered all of our questions and gave wonderful recommendations. Overall, it was well worth the cost to book a private tour. We saw a lot in the 2+ hours and left understanding more about the city and its people. The day before the organizer sent me a message that had directions, reminders and even a picture of our tour guide. This was excellent communication and made me feel comfortable knowing we would have a seemless experience.

Operator response

Dear Erika, Many thanks for taking Your time to write an excellent review for our private tour of Zagreb. I am pleased to hear You had a great time with Marko, and that all informations received day before enhanced the whole experience. Best, Aleksandar
