It was very fun learning about the city of Zagreb! Our tour guide was amazing and had lots of historical and present facts about the city. Highly recommend this tour to start your trip!!
Thank you so much for your kind words, it means a lot :)
Our guide Inez was excellent, friendly, and very informed
Muito obrigada Monica :)
My guide was very knowledgeable and clearly passionate about her city and its history. Despite probably having told the stories and showed the places hundreds if not thousands of times I never felt like just another tourist or another number. I had a lovely time despite the weather and a number of buildings being inaccessible due to the earthquakes in 2022. I highly recommend this private tour over a regular tour with many more people for a more personal experience.
Hi Russell, thank you very much for your kind words! I had a good time on our tour too, despite the rain :)
