Juweeltjes van Istrië - Privé dagtocht naar Pula, Rovinj en Motovun vanuit Zagreb
Beschrijving
Begin aan een betoverende privédagtrip vanuit Zagreb en verken het rijke tapijt van Istrië. Je reis begint in Pula, een stad vol Romeinse architectuur. Hier wacht je twee uur verkenning, met een optionele rondleiding door het ontzagwekkende Romeinse amfitheater uit de 1e eeuw. Onze reis gaat verder naar Rovinj, een romantische haven aan de kust die een onweerstaanbare charme uitstraalt. Hier heb je twee uur vrije tijd om de levendigheid van de geplaveide straten te ervaren, de lokale gastronomie te proeven of deel te nemen aan boeiende activiteiten. Vervolgens reizen we naar Motovun, een pittoreske middeleeuwse stad op een heuvel met uitzicht op de serene vallei van de Mirna-rivier. Breng een uur door met het verkennen van de oude muren, genietend van de schilderachtige vergezichten en het proeven van de beroemde Istrische truffel, een verborgen culinair juweeltje. Aan het einde van onze gedenkwaardige dag beginnen we aan een rustige rit terug naar Zagreb, waarbij we nadenken over de rijke ervaringen van Istrië. Ervaar met ons het verleidelijke verhaal van Istrië.

Our trip was to the coast with Aleksandar was a highlight of our week in Croatia. Marija was our guide to Pula and Rovinj - we certainly left with a better understanding of the history of the area. The coliseum at Pula was virtually empty as most tourists don’t pick November to visit. When Aleksandar heard we were interested in olive oil, he called ahead and asked about possibly sampling some at a local grower. We sampled 4 different types, including one from the latest harvest. We left with several bottles and a great memory. Seeing Motovun at night was amazing. Aleksandar made sure we saw all the views along the wall. I cannot recommend this company more highly.
Dear Lisa, Thank you for the fantastic review of our private day-trip from Zagreb to Istria. I'm thrilled to hear that you had a wonderful experience exploring Pula, Rovinj, and Motovun with us. As your private guide, it was my goal to ensure you experienced the best of Istria. Hearing that Marija helped deepen your understanding of the area’s history is wonderful. The quiet exploration of the Pula Coliseum is indeed a rare and unique experience, and I’m glad you enjoyed it. I'm glad that the olive oil tasting adventure added special touches to your journey, and I’m thrilled you took home not just olive oil, but great memories too. Your wonderful words and recommendation mean a lot to us. If you ever wish to explore more of Croatia, we'd be more than happy to have You join us again on another private tour. All the best, Aleksandar

Dear dr.Emanuel Mallol, We have read your review of the Gems of Istria private day trip, and while we respect your right to express your opinion, we must respectfully disagree with your assessment. This tour is one of the most extensive private day trips available, covering over 600 kilometers to showcase the very best of the Istrian Peninsula—Pula, Rovinj, and Motovun—all within a single day. It is specifically designed for travelers who may not have several days to spend in Istria but still wish to experience its highlights in comfort and style. You raised concerns about the cost of the trip and mentioned during the day-trip to our guide that other aspects of Croatia, such as restaurants, hotels, also felt too expensive. We acknowledge that, for someone traveling from the Dominican Republic—or for others from regions with different cost standards—this may seem high. However, Croatia is part of the European Union(since 2013), where certain services come at a price due to the certain laws, high standards, taxes, and expenses involved. It’s important to emphasize that this is a private tour, not a shared group excursion. The cost reflects what is included: a professional, licensed guide(if option selected); a dedicated driver; private transportation in a premium Mercedes-Benz vehicles(You spend a lot of time in a vehicle on this day-trip, so You can enjoy the comfort of luxurious vehicle); fuel; tolls; viator commission, and Croatia’s 25% VAT tax. These elements are necessary to deliver a safe, seamless, and high-quality experience. The price was clearly stated at the time of booking, with no hidden costs, ensuring full transparency. We also feel it’s worth mentioning that your review is the first and only one we’ve received that is less than 5 stars. Over the years, hundreds of travelers have praised the trips we offer, our thoughtfully curated itineraries, incredible destinations, and the exceptional service provided by our team. This overwhelming feedback reflects the true value of the trip and speaks to the consistent effort and care we put into ensuring our guests have an unforgettable experience. Our guides and drivers, in particular, work tirelessly to make this complex itinerary possible. For a private tour that spans such a great distance and involves so much planning, adhering to the schedule is essential—not only for the quality of the experience but also for everyone’s safety and comfort. They go above and beyond to accommodate travelers’ needs, and it’s important that their hard work is acknowledged and appreciated. We understand that this tour may not fit everyone’s budget or expectations, and perhaps what we offer is more than some travelers are prepared to invest. However, for those seeking premium private experience, this trip remains a fantastic opportunity to see the gems of Istria in a single day from Zagreb in comfort & style. We stand by the value and quality of this tour, and we encourage future travelers to read the hundreds of 5-star reviews we’ve received. These reviews, and the experience we deliver, speak for themselves. Cheer up and try to have a wonderful day, Best, Aleksandar
Amazing experience. The driver, the guide, the communication all throughout, the entire experience was great, best way to see the Istria region from Zagreb. It is a long day and we were very comfortable going at our own pace and having a comfortable private van. Totally worth the $$ of the private tour. I would definitely book them again next time I’m in Zadar. Thank you so much for providing top notch service.

While a long ride from Zagreb, this is definitely a tour worth taking. Pula was a Roman city, and you can see a well preserved arena, temple and an arch. Our guide Ivana was excellent, as was our driver Alexander. The trip included stops in a walled hill city ,Motovin, and Rovinge, a beautiful coastal town.

Neven, was a great tour guide and driver. His English was perfect and knowledge was excellent. He knew when to share and when to let me rest. We started in Zagreb and he explained the cities history and importance. Then we left for the beautiful Istria coast. All along the way Nevin gave color commentary as to where we were and what this land meant to Croatia. Great trip and highly reccomended!!!
