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

Old town charm and history. - Dorja was a great! Our tour was in the old town and we met at the Sun Greeting on the coast. She was very knowledgeable about the history of Zadar and answered our questions openly. She also showed us local businesses like the Maraska Liquor and a cheese shop where we were able to taste tasted the locally produced items. It was a great tour and exactly what we were looking for in Zadar.

A great way to see Zadar - The walking tour was very enjoyable and informative. Dorja is very knowledgeable and gave us a much better understanding of the sights of the city than we could have gotten on our own. She also gave us great recommendations for other things to do and places to go to make the most of our short trip to the city.
