It was like spending the day with a friend! - Tea was the absolute best part of my trip to Zagreb! It turned out that I was the only one booked that day (I am a solo traveler) and she did not cancel on me as others have in the past! Tea hit on both savory and sweet foods and topped it off with a little treat at the end! She knows her stuff and shared really interesting information on not only the food, but the history and the people of Zagreb - she clearly loves her city and it shows. It honestly was like spending the day with a great friend! I highly recommend this tour!

A wonderful way to explore Zagreb. Arrive hungry! - What an amazing day. I lucked out and got Tea as a private tour guide because the other people in the group canceled. Tea was so knowledgeable about the history of the city and Croatia. She was also knowledgeable about the history regarding each yummy dish. During this tour I fell in love with my new addiction…Strukli! Every place we stoped had amazing food plus amazing stories to go along with each dish. Including sampling some fresh cheese at Dolac market. Tea was a joy to hang out with while exploring the culture and stuffing my face too. Good thing I skipped breakfast that day.

Very good tour and highly recommended - Tea was an awesome tour guide. She was very patient and most accommodating. She discussed Zagreb’s history and how it influenced the local cuisine in a very interesting way. There were lots of sweet and savory local foods that we tried and some homemade goodies that she made herself. The best part was meeting very nice people in the tour. She sent us a message right before our tour to come with an empty stomach… you really should. Very good tour overall. Would highly recommend.

Taste all about croation food, tradition and history - Since I was travelling alone, I ended up getting a private foodtour with Tea. I had an amazing time and all the food was delicious! We spent around four hours exploring the city. She took a lot of time, explaining a bit of city's history and its connection to food. Tea has a great expertise on cultural and historical aspects of food and told me some unexpected influences on its development. We stpped at about 10 places, varying from restaurants, cafes, bakeries or snackbars, tasting a good range of croation cuisine from different regions, with just the right balance between sweet and salty dishes. We also had excellent coffee and tasted some traditional croation liquors. Tea also provided me with a lot of useful tipps and recommendations what to do and where to eat for the rest of my time in Zagreb. All in all a had a fantastic day and would highly recommend this foodtour – but make sure to start hungry 😊
