Trakošćan Castle & Varaždin - Private tour from Zagreb
Description
Meet North of Croatia on this private day-trip from Zagreb. Discover a historic core of Varaždin, a showcase of scrupulously restored baroque architecture and well-tended gardens and parks. Admire Trakošćan castle, with its well-presented museum and attractive grounds. The castle features three floors of exhibits that display the family’s original furniture, a plethora of portraits, an armament's collection of swords, and a period kitchen in the basement. The rooms range in style from neo-Renaissance to Gothic and baroque. It was restored in the neo-Gothic style in the mid-19th century; the 215-acre castle grounds were landscaped into a romantic English-style park with exotic trees and an artificial lake. This is a private tour and it is tailored to You.

Mario our guide was great. Lots of interesting information. The local beer and pastries were especially delicious.
Dear Jason, Thank you for taking your time to write an excellent review for your private day-trip with us. All the best! Aleksandar
Aleksander is an incredible guide. He is personable and very knowledgeable. We visited Trakoscan Castle and Varazdin after visiting Kumrovec (Tito's birthplace) so we got an extra stop on our trip. He also took us to an excellent restaurant in Varazdin called Bedem for lunch and gave us many recommendations on what to do in Zagreb. He had a very nice, clean Mercedes minivan for the day tour. Everything was perfect. I highly recommend him and will go through him for more tours next time I am in Zagreb.
Jeff, First of all, thank You for writing an excellent review. It was a pleasure meeting You and I really enjoyed our conversation. I am really happy to hear that You enjoyed our tour and liked our Mercedes V-class minivan. Till next time! Enjoy Croatia, Best regards, Aleksandar
It was a pleasure to have the tour with Alex. Nice day trip with a lot of interesting historical facts and nice walk. 100% recommended!
Svetlana, It was a pleasure being a guide to both You and Alfredo! Big thanks for writing an excellent review for Limitless Balkan here on TripAdvisor. Best regards, Aleksandar
This was a private tour for 2 couples. Alex, our guide, picked us up at our hotel promptly at 9:00, and we headed to Varazdin, the former capital of Croatia. We started out at the castle, and then continued strolling the very charming town. From there, we drove to Trakoscan, a fairy-tale castle in very picturesque surroundings. Alex was a very pleasant guide, and he was a wealth of information regarding the places we visited, as well as Croatian history. I highly recommend this tour for people who would like to spend the day in the countryside. For lovers of castles, this tour is perfect.
