Full description
Meet your guide in the oldest and most beautiful park in Zagreb, park Zrinjevac. From Zrinjevac you will walk to Ban Jelačić Square, and the guide will tell you the story of the origin of Zagreb and how Zagreb got its name. You will walk along Ilica to Funicular, which will take you to Gradec, one of the medieval settlements. Stroll through the streets of the upper city, immerse yourself in the rich history and listen to interesting stories about the city. You will see the oldest pharmacy in Zagreb and hear something about the method of treatment in the Middle Ages and the preparation of medicines. You will exit the Upper Town through the only preserved gate - the Stone Gate. You will find out why there is a chapel inside the door, and about the patron saint of the city of Zagreb. Also, why and from whom the inhabitants of Gradec needed protection in medieval times. You will descend Radićeva Street and enter Tkalčićeva Street via a small street called Bloody Bridge. The guide will tell you why this little street has such a symbolic name. You will walk through the most famous and busiest pedestrian street in the city and learn something about the way of life of the people of Zagreb. You will walk through Opatovina Park to the green market Dolac (open during the morning), where you will be a part of the hustle and bustle of the most famous symbol of Zagreb. From the green market you will walk to the Cathedral, the most famous symbol of Zagreb and the guide will tell you the most interesting facts from its turbulent history. The tour ends at Ban Jelačić Square where you will say goodbye to your guide.

It was such a pleasant and interesting walk though city’s history. Our guide Dorotea was amazing! We were lucky enough to be a small group of just three people and that made the tour more like friendly walk. Overall overwhelmed of the experience. A must do when in Zagreb!

Dorotea was welcoming from the very start. She was friendly, knowledgable and incredibly helpful. Nothing was too much for her. She gave us a very personal tour around Zagreb, giving us food and drink recommendations - just what we needed to fully experience Zagreb. We would definitely recommend Dorotea to anyone who wants to learn about the history and current local life or Zagreb!! Thank you Dorotea.
