Overview

I'm a Zagreb-born Sociology graduate and history enthusiast with almost a decade of tour guiding experience. Being fed up with doing standard tours gave me motivation to come up with a tour for your (and mine!) maximum enjoyment. That means you'll see all the highlights of a regular Zagreb tour, but we'll actually have fun doing it.

The main question this tour sets out to answer is: Who are the people of Zagreb, and why are we the way we are? We'll take an in-depth look at Zagreb's history and social life through its most notable historical figures, their legacy, and events that still resonate today… All sprinkled with my personal experience of having lived in Zagreb my whole life.

Not only will you get the facts and stories, I'll deliver them in a fun, engaging, and, most importantly, transparent way. I've got nothing to hide and you've got nothing to lose! Except a very reasonable sum, but that's beside the point. Book your spot and let's have some good clean honest fun!

After we get acquainted at our meeting point, you will find out where the name Zagreb came from. Next I'll talk about the person whose statue adorns the main square.

K&K Milcec

  • 10m
Our next stop is K&K Milčec, a charming local café where your first drink is on me.

Cathedral of Zagreb

  • 15m
Not only will we talk about the Cathedral's tumultuous history, but I'll also touch on the Catholic Church and its role in Croatian history.

Dolac Market

  • 10m
We'll walk through Zagreb's largest open market, and I'll share a few tips on getting the most out of it like a local.

Statue of Petrica Kerempuh

  • 10m
We'll stop by the statue of Petrica Kerempuh - the folk trickster who inspired this tour. And yes, there will be a live poetry recital.

Tkalciceva Street

  • 10m
We'll head to Tkalčićeva Street, where we'll talk about how people of Zagreb actually spend their time and I'll introduce you to Marija Jurić Zagorka, one of Croatia's most beloved writers.

Porta di Pietra (Kamenita Vrata)

  • 10m
We'll pass through the Stone Gate, the historic entrance to Gradec old town, which has served as everything from a site of witch trials to a beloved pilgrimage spot still active today.

St. Mark's Square

  • 10m
Our next stop is St. Mark's Square, where history and politics collide. I'll cover the iconic church and give you a frank overview of Croatia's current political scene.

Lotrscak Tower

  • 10m
We'll head to Lotrščak Tower just in time for the daily cannon fire. Once the smoke clears, we'll take in the best view Zagreb has to offer.

Strossmayer Promenade (Pass by)

Next is Strossmayer Promenade, a beautiful tree-lined walkway that might just be the most romantic spot in Zagreb.

Antun Gustav Matos Statue

  • 5m
Next is the statue of A.G. Matoš, where I'll talk about the man himself and share some of his more... memorable quotes.

Uspinjača

  • 10m
Next up is a quick ride on one of the shortest funicular lines in the world, with a bit of history thrown in.

Tunel Gric

While we're walking through Grič Tunnel I'll talk about how and why it was built, and what it's been used for since.

Krvavi Most

  • 10m
We'll stop at the Bloody Bridge street, where the theme of conflict between neighbours comes into focus — from the medieval clashes between Kaptol and Gradec to Croatia's war with Serbia in the 1990s.

Ban Josip Jelacic Square

  • 10m
We'll wrap up back at the main square, where I'll answer any questions you have and send you off with some restaurant recommendations.
