Best Zagreb City Tour with Karlo - My wife and I enjoyed the tour very much. Karlo is wonderful. He is engaged and we right away, feel connected with him. It felt like a good friend touring us. He explains the history of Croatia very well. He definitely loves what he does. He also offered us bottled water. He also recommended what restaurant to go for lunch. We went to the restaurant he recommended and it was a delicious lunch. We’re blessed to have Karlo as our tour guide for Zagreb city tour. You will not be disappointed if you go with him. Hope to see you again Karlo.

Great tour! Recommend it! - Karlo is an amazing professional tour guy! Very knowledgeable for Croatia history. Always willing to help, going the extra mile, polite and with great sense of humour. He provides tours around Croatia. The one I had was for Zagreb and I really enjoyed the 3 hours that passed without realising. The end of the tour had a nice surprise! Walking on your own is one way of sightseeing, but with tour you learn so much behind each sight you see. Definitely recommend Karlo and the tour.

Exceptional!!! - Hands down, one of the best tours I’ve ever had. I’m an avid traveler and sometimes that means being solo. Karlo made my experience absolutely perfect. I felt as if I was walking the streets of Zagreb with a friend. Chatting about its history while enjoying the sights. As a traveler, I enjoy meeting local people that can genuinely educate me and their audience about the Country’s history. Karlo did not disappoint. He truly has a passion for what he does and it translates into his work. 10/10 I would recommend booking a tour with him. You will not be disappointed!

A Perfect Introduction to Zagreb - Karlo was a most personable and knowledgeable guide. His explanations were very clear and it was obvious he enjoys what he is doing. He provided us with a complete and comprehensive history of Croatia and Zagreb. He used an IPad to make it more understandable as well as showing us photographs of the way things looked years ago. I cannot recommend him more strongly and know you would be pleased.

Nice tour with the family - After two other participants canceled at short notice, we, a family of four, were the only ones taking part in the tour. That was great for us, as Karlo was able to adapt to us very well and answer all of our questions. It was very informative and entertaining, thank you very much for that!

Sensational - This was the best city tour we have ever had. Karlo gave my wife and I a personal tour of Zagreb. It was a great mix of information and personal anecdotes. By the end of the tour (fantastic value) we felt like we had been walking with a friend.
