5An amazing historical walking tour of Zagreb.
We had a wonderful historical walking tour of Zagreb. Our tour guide was very knowledgable about the history of Croatia and made it very interesting. He I was friendly and made it so interesting. I was not aware at how many wars and occupations of Croatia had taken place and what impact it had on the country. I would highly recommend this walking tour. Isabella Surgeon and Ina Nagy. I was sad i did not have cash on me to give him a reward for an excellent walking tour. I only have a cash card.
5A Great Way to Discover Zagreb
As a first-time visitor to Zagreb, I’m so glad I started my trip with this walking tour. It gave me a much deeper appreciation for the city than I would have gotten by exploring on my own. Our guide was warm, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about Zagreb. They shared fascinating stories about the city's history, culture, and daily life, making every stop feel meaningful. Walking through the charming streets of the Upper Town, seeing landmarks like St. Mark's Church, and learning about local traditions made me feel connected to the city in a way that guidebooks simply can't achieve.

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.
