Privé eclectische wandelervaring van Samobor Hills
Beschrijving
Als je een fervent wandelaar bent en je je vakantie niet kunt voorstellen zonder enkele hoogtes te verkennen, zullen de heuvels van Samobor je zeker niet teleurstellen. Slechts 1 uur rijden van Zagreb als startpunt voor deze gematigde wandeling van 5 uur. De tour wordt begeleid door een gecertificeerde gids die je op elk moment bijstaat. De heuvels van Samobor en de hoogste top zijn adembenemend. Na het genieten van de natuurlijke schoonheid, zal een meer stedelijke ervaring plaatsvinden door een bezoek te brengen aan de oude binnenstad van Samobor, een kasteelruïne boven de moderne stad. De ervaring kan worden aangepast met een optionele lunch in het traditionele Kroatische restaurant of door proeverij van wijn, kaas en gezouten vleeswaren georganiseerd door een van de beste Kroatische wijnmakers.
Rondreisopties
Reisroute
In de ochtenduren wordt u door uw chauffeur-gids bij uw accommodatie in Zagreb opgehaald en naar de heuvels van Samobor gereden (als de ophaallocatie niet toegankelijk is, wordt het ophalen geregeld op de dichtstbijzijnde toegankelijke locatie).
Op weg naar de wandelplek passeren we Samobor, een kleine barokke stad die we na de wandelervaring zullen bezoeken.
Tijdens deze tour ontdekt u de heuvels van Žumberak - Samobor, een specifiek landschap dat een prachtige mix is van de Dinarische Alpen, de Alpen en de Pannonische vlakte. In totaal omvat het wandelgedeelte 5 uur gematigde tot gemakkelijke wandeling. Je gids staat de hele reis voor je klaar en zorgt voor wandelstokken. Bovenaan geniet je van rust, snacks en versnaperingen. De afdaling duurt ongeveer 2 uur.
Na de afdaling stappen we in onze auto en rijden naar een andere geweldige wandelplek. Na slechts 20 minuten rijden zijn we klaar om nog een top te veroveren, de oude binnenstad van Samobor. De wandeling naar de top is gemakkelijk en duurt slechts ongeveer 10 minuten. Zodra we het hebben bereikt, verken je de oude ruïne die ooit een formidabel fort was.
Keer terug naar Zagreb is in de vroege avonduren.

What a great way to spend our 40th wedding anniversary. This hike was exceptionally good. It was steep in some places, but an easy walk. We loved our guide Karlo from Bespoke Croatia. He was informative and fun. Our lunch at the top of the mountain was fantastic. We have several eating restrictions and the food he provided was delicious and exactly what we needed. I especially liked the red pepper dip/sauce. We would recommend this hike to anyone visiting Zagreb. Alen and Joan
Dear Joan and Alen, It was a privilege to be a part of such an important event in your life. Yes, this is one of my favorite spots to hike in Continental Croatia and it makes me happy I can share it with people that are visiting my country. Thank you for writing this wonderful review and for being such an amazing company during our tour. Wishing you many more happy anniversaries and hope to meet you again! Kind regards, Karlo from Bespoke Croatia
The Samobor tour includes mountain hiking, visit of an the historic town of Samobor and old fortress ruins. This is a great combination for a full day of experiences not far from Zagreb. Karlo Kapusta os a great guide, very friendly and a good communicator. He makes it a fun experience!
Dear Guenadi! I was so happy when you contacted me with the desire to do 3 additional tours with our company. One of them being the hiking experience. Thank you for keeping me in shape :) The tour is a mixture of different activities that intertwine perfectly together. Until next time my friend! Kind regards, Karlo
I couldn’t have asked for a better guide than Karlo for this trip. The hike route was beautiful, with many breathtaking views. He brought traditional snacks for me to try when we rested, and he even brought me a gift for my birthday. The trip was beautiful, and the guide was very friendly and helped make it a great trip. I would highly recommend
Dear Nathan, We truly had a marvelous day exploring Samobor hills. The snow had made it a bit tough to hike but the reward was hence much greater. I makes me happy you choose this experience, especially because this is one of my favorite activities outside of Zagreb and I love sharing it with others. Wish you a lot of happy hikes and will be looking forward to hike with you again. Kind regards, Karlo
Karlo is an excellent guide, who provides first class service. The hike was exhilarating and well worth the effort. The scenery is remarkable, both during the climb and from the summit. Lunch was delicious.
Dear Howard, It makes me extremely happy that you decided to come back to Croatia and again engage me on some other tours. This hike tour is a super combo of some adventure and later on wine tasting. I am glad you loved every part of the tour. Thank you and Jean for once again showing the trust in me to tailor your tours in Croatia. Until next time, either in Croatia or in the US. Kind regards, Karlo
This is a wonderful day trip! I hiked through a beautiful forest to reach a great view and snacks! The guide, Karlo, made the day memorable with homemade snacks like sausage, spreads, cheeses. He is extremely knowledgeable about the history of his country, and he goes out of his way to make the experience enjoyable. I have never done a private tour before, but I absolutely recommend it and would use this company again!
Dear Shannon, Thank you for finding the time to write such a great review. I am also happy you decided to do this tour. Samobor hills is a great hiking spot which does not disappoint. We were also lucky to be accompanied by the local dog Coby who at one point started chasing a roebuck. What a sight! Thank you for praising the snacks. They are made by my family and we love sharing them with anyone who is willing to try. I am also happy that the rest of your trip in Croatia was wonderful. See you back in Croatia or in Canada. All the best. Kind regards, Karlo
Hiking was on our third day agenda with Karlo and agency. It was just a short ride from Zagreb and you are in this lovely city Samobor and beautifull nature and hills. Partner and I hike a lot but never before had a guide, and with Karlo as experienced hiker we felt safe and well organized. Highlight of the trip- wine tasting of course :) Amazing time, Croatia's nature is so beautifull!
Dear Tia, Bran and you were provided such a great company on our hiking trip. Samobor hills as you said is so close to Zagreb, yet untainted and slightly off the beaten path. Thank you for pointing out that you felt safe all throughout the hike. It gladdens me since we make safety our priority. Wine tasting can never be bad, only the aftermath ;) But with the world class wine that our host produces, hangover will never be an issue. Thank you and Bran once more and do come again :) Kind regards, Karlo
Karlo is very knowledgeable about the history of the area and was an excellent tour guide. I would highly recommend using him if you're in Croatia and are looking for a guide who can craft a tour based on your interests and physical abilities.
Wow, what a great experience with Karlo! Our hike was wonderfully challenging, with majestic views at the top. The castle ruins were beautiful in the late afternoon sun (timed just so by Karlo), the lunch spot he chose was authentic and delicious, and the by-appointment wine tasting, hosted by the vintner himself, was unforgettable. The views from their overlook were just astounding. Karlo curated a truly unique and memorable experience. This is the only way to travel. Highly recommend, and sorry for anyone who misses the chance to experience this tour!
Dear Mariana, Thank you so much for finding the time to write such a great review. This tour is truly a combination of great experiences. Hiking through some fantastic scenery, visiting medieval fort, tasting traditional food and getting introduced to great Croatian wines.I have to admit that the tour was meticulously planned so you get most of your day. Thank you once more for trusting us in these uncertain times and giving us the chance to curate your vacation in Croatia. Looking forward of seeing you back in Croatia. Kind regards, Karlo
We had the most wonderful day out on this tour with Karlo, driving through majestic Croatian countryside to these beautiful places. Everything was well organised and Karlo kept on pointing out interesting facts and stories to keep us well amused. The scenery was just breathtaking with not that many people about. We had a wild boar sausage lunch at the resting point in the hills provided by Karlo ( by his Dad in fact....Home made). The walking was not too strenuous but we knew we had done some good exercise for sure. To top it all, we went for a fantastic traditional Croatian meal in a small village on the way back, with a couple of glasses of Croatian wine. Lovely!! We would totally recommend Karlo and the team at bespoke-croatia and we will definitely be back. Oh, I should have said at the start that we booked this after a great walking tour with Karlo around Zagreb and we enjoyed it so much, we booked this one. We would thoroughly recommend both. Have fun. Judith and David xxx
Dear Judith and David, thank you for finding the time to write a wonderful review of our hiking experience in Samobor Hills. Again, it was a pleasure to guide, spend the time in your company and show you one of my favorite hiking spots in the vicinity of Zagreb. The day was filled with good storytelling, amazing views, gastronomical delights and a lot of laughter. Looking forward of seeing you back in Croatia to explore some other of the beaten path destinations. Until then stay safe and be well. Kind regards, Karlo
Karlo is a wonderful guide . He knows all the places to stop and explore. Tell him what you like to do and he will customize an adventure for you. Samobor Hills is a magical forest to hike through -with majestic , moss covered beech trees and incredible views from a lookout tower. Karlo also treated me to a tasty treat that he baked . It's like a friend sharing a secrete place. Highly recommend !
Dear Paul, Thank you for a great review and putting the trust in me to organize and lead you on three different tours in continental Croatia. Samobor hills are truly a great place to hike and escape the busy city. Definitely one of my favorite places nearby Zagreb and that is the reason I love to share it with people that have the same passion for spending time outdoors. I am glad you enjoyed the pastry as well. Let me know when you'll be back in Croatia so that I get all the ingredients and make another one, hehe. Stay safe and be well. Kind regards, Karlo
