Great tour and excellent tourist guide by Bernanda! - Bernanda is a great tourist guide, she speaks English and Spanish and gave us the tour in our preferred language (Spanish).

Exceptional Zagreb tour - My guide Bernardo was an exceptional guide and I have high expectations of a guide. She did not rush our tour and answered all my questions. When I met other travelers - they had not learned as much as I had or in such an enjoyable way. Definitely a positive experience and I recommend her and the company

An excellent way to get an overview of Zagreb - This tour was excellent. Our guide Luka was very friendly, personable and knowledgeable. He took into account our interests and made lots of recommendations for further things to do in Zagreb. It was a cold wet day but he managed to keep us dry whenever possible. He also challenged us to think about what we were seeing and relate it to what we already knew. He clearly loves this beautiful city.

Great History Lesson!! - Our guide, Aleksandar, did an outstanding job! Our whole experience was positive, from clear communication prior to meeting, to giving us the history lesson we asked for. He took the time to personalize our time together so we maximized our walk. His knowledge was extensive and his English was clear.

Awesome - I was nervous to do a private tour, but I’m really glad that I did. My guide Marko was amazing. He made the tour very fun and made my day. Highly recommend him for any other solo travelers who are staying in Zagreb. One thing that I did regret was doing this tour during Easter because everything was closed. Otherwise, very fun!
