Fascinating tour. Vid (the guide) was so knowledgeable and thoughtful about the whole history of the country and was happy to answer all my questions. It's incredibly thought provoking and such a vital part of the history of this area of the world.

Informative Tour

Our tour guide had an excellent knowledge of the subject since he lived through it. His explanation and stories were very clear and kept me very interested. He did a great job taking participants from loud traffic noise so he was very easy to hear. I highly recommend this tour.

Kristina did an excellent job of explaining the very complicated history of Croatia. Her and her family’s personal experiences during the homeland War really made an impression on us.

Brilliant! Great tour, well presented

Kristina, the tour guide, was really well informed and delivered approx 200 years of history of Croatia and Yugoslavia in a really clear and engaging way, using visual aids - maps, photographs, and a great video showing some of the Croatia War of Independence and the breakup of Yugoslavia. She was always ready for questions and didn't rush her answers, and took time to make sure everyone got what they wanted out of it. I would recommend this tour to anyone, really interesting because of the history, and it's a great way to see some things in Zagreb you might otherwise miss. 10/10 - no hiccups, no fuss, well worth the cost.
