Fun and Yummy Tour With Marin - Great tour with opportunity to try a variety of food and wine. Everything was delicious. Marin was a wonderful guide. He covered a lot of topics and was enthusiastic about sharing his city. Only suggestion is that our group would have liked him to share the meals with us and visit while we ate and drank.

Walking and eating/drinking - Marron was a very knowledgeable guide & we enjoyed the food and wine too. Although there was much walking he did pay attention to slow walkers.

Delicious and informative - Our guide gave us a little lesson in speaking Croatian that was quite helpful. He was also very knowledgeable about the local food scene. He shared some good history as we walked from location to location.

An Interesting and Informative session plus yummy food! - I reserved this tour before leaving Home. It did not disappoint. Our tour guide was fantastic. He was knowledgeable, funny courteous and helpful. we were given a very interesting résumé of the history of Zagreb without overloading us with material. we stopped at some really interesting food and drink spots and tasted appetizers and main dishes. Everything was delicious. Unfortunately we had to skip out a little early so we missed the dessert portion, but that was on us.

Fun and Delicious experience - Our Zagreb Food and Old Town tour with Damyan was outstanding, and we were thoroughly impressed with both him and the entire experience. Damyan's deep knowledge of the city’s history, combined with his enthusiasm for Zagreb’s vibrant food culture, made the tour unforgettable. We sampled a delicious variety of traditional dishes and drinks, from savory local specialties to sweet treats, paired with excellent wines and regional liquors. Each stop offered something unique, and Damyan’s engaging storytelling added a rich cultural context to every bite. His friendly demeanor and expert guidance made the tour a perfect blend of history, food, and fun!

Great experience - Our guide Damjan was great. The tour was a fun way to get a taste of Zagreb. I recommend doing this tour first thing because you'll see many sights, not just eat.

Meh - ok if you have not had some traditional Croatian foods - We were glad to try cevapcici and strukli. The guide was friendly and provided information about the food and a little history. The first glass of wine was quite good but the others were not which was disappointing because we had only had great wine on our trip. We were expecting better food and wine - only the cevapcici and the two pieces of cheese at the first stop were really good. We are not sure why this tour has such great reviews - we have been on better tours in other countries.
