  • 5A brilliant guide, fascinating history, and plenty of funny jokes made this tour both informative and entertaining!

    We had a fantastic guided tour! Our guide Bojan Kladarić was absolutely brilliant, sharing lots of fascinating historical information while keeping us entertained with funny jokes and a great sense of humour. An enjoyable, informative, and memorable experience. Highly recommended! 😊

  • 5Great tour

    Great experience. Everything well organised. Filip is a great tour guide to Plitvickie Lakes, but also Ante is a great tour guide in Zadar. The Zadar tour is included in price and it is a must!

  • 5Incredible visuals!

    Awesome trip! Comfortable coach bus ride there and back. We saw the upper and lower sections of the park. They made it very easy by bringing us up to the top first by train and walking down with a boat ride in between. Lots of beautiful photo opportunities! You cannot miss this experience!!

About Zadar

Zadar, on Croatia's Dalmatian coast, is an old Roman and Venetian town on a peninsula, known for its sea organ and the sunsets beside it.

The old town of Zadar sits on a narrow peninsula, bordered by Venetian walls and the Land Gate. The remains of a Roman forum lie beside the round church of St Donatus, a ninth-century building that is the best-known landmark. Kalelarga, the main pedestrian street, follows the line of the Roman main street, with shops and cafés, and the cathedral of St Anastasia stands nearby.
