A lap x zara - Beautiful town, the central street full of shops of all kinds. Prices a bit high x various things especially in food. A takeaway coffee in the paper cup 1.80.....deserves cmq. A visitor.

Highly recommend - The day of our tour with Dorja we had torrential rain with thunder and lightning but we weren't let down. Dorja showed up for us even though it was just myself and my girlfriend that booked that day. She was very professional and delivered all the interesting information of Zadar's Old Town and more very well even though it was definitely difficult with the heavy rain. I would highly recommend this tour with Dorja

Informative - Original guide was ill so an associate took over. She was quietly spoken which made it difficult to hear on busy streets, but knowledgeable and informative.
