  • 5A wonderful experience in Zagreb

    This was a great walking tour. Our guide Karlo was very pleasant and personable. His extensive knowledge of the history of Zagreb and Croatia was presented in a friendly, easily understood and accessible manner, and buttressed with personal anecdotes so that it was never a boring recitation of dates and facts. We went at our own pace and never felt rushed. I would recommend this tour and highly recommend Karlo as a terrific guide.

About Zagreb

Zagreb is Croatia's capital, a city of two historic towns, cathedral spires, café-lined streets and green parks beneath Mount Medvednica.

Zagreb has two historic halves. The Upper Town, Gornji Grad, sits on a hill with cobbled lanes, the tiled-roof church of St Mark and the Lotrščak Tower, from which a cannon is fired at noon each day. Below, the Lower Town has Austro-Hungarian squares, theatres and museums around Ban Jelačić Square, with the twin neo-Gothic spires of the cathedral just east and a short funicular linking the two parts.

Top-ranked sights in Zagreb: Ban Jelačić Square (Trg Bana Jelačića), Gric Tunnel (Tunel Gric), Dolac Market.
