It was personal and...

It was personal and informative. Alex, our wonderful guide, showed us the more modern side of Zagreb as well as the historic side. Perfect blend. He also helped with dinner reservations. Much appreciated!

Best way to see Zagreb!

Have just finished a private, half day tour of Zagreb with Aleksandar and it was absolutely fantastic. Aleks showed me all of the main sights of the city but he also took me to amazing places you would never get to see if you were on your own or on a standard walking tour. He is a friendly, knowledgable and funny guy and I would highly recommend this tour to everyone.

Absolutely Fantastic

We spent 4 hours with Luka and it truly was one of the best tours we have ever had. Luka knew so much history about Croatia and Zagreb - we saw many areas in Zagreb where we would never have found. We only had one day in Zagreb and this was a perfect way to see the city and not just the tourist spots! Luka was so easy going, funny and enjoyable to be with.

MUST SEE ZAGREB

Aleksander was knowledgeable and a pleasure... They told us there was little to see in Zagreb... THEY WERE SO, SO WRONG. The city is beautiful, the old towns are amazing, the food fantastik and Zabreb was definitely our nicest and most wonderful stop in the Balkan tour.

If you ever find yourself back in Zagreb or looking to explore more of the Balkans, don't hesitate to reach out. There's always more to discover! Best, Aleksandar
