We had a wonderful tour!... - We had a wonderful tour! Our guide, Jurica, was very knowledgeable and friendly. The tour began with a brief history of Zadar, covering its Roman roots all the way to modern times. We then explored all the historical sites and monuments in the old city, where Jurica explained each location in detail — it was truly fascinating. Later, we visited some of the modern attractions, which were fun and added a nice contrast to the historic part of the tour. The experience ended at the "Greeting to the Sun" installation, a perfect spot to wrap up the day. Don’t miss the sunset in Zadar — it’s truly one of the most beautiful in the world. Overall, we had a great time, and I highly recommend this tour to anyone.

Very interesting ancient city - Our young tour guide Jadica met us promptly at the Archeological Museum. The historic portion of Zadar is relatively small, but there is a lot to see. Like most people, before the tour we did not know much about this ancient city. In fact, we were astonished to learn the age of some of the relics of Zadar's history; a few buildings were constructed 1000 years before the travels of Columbus. Our guide also took us through a bustling local marketplace, including free tastings of local cheese and meats, ending the tour at a lovely park.
