Great introduction to local culture - Excellent opportunity to learn about Croatian/ Zagreb culture and history. Our guide (who said we should just call him John) was very knowledgeable and informative and friendly and made this a great experience.

Fun & Delicious - Damian was an excellent guide! We had, sadly, a short time in Zagreb but I felt like we saw and tasted so much! The food was delicious and wine generous! I would completely recommend this tour:)

Damjan is the best! - The food was excellent, but Damjan, the guide, was exemplary. Funny, knowledgeable, engaging. Would have been worth the trip even without the really delicious food and drink.

Damjan is the best - When you book a guide in a foreign country you always hope for the best. In Zagreb we were fortunate to be guided by the best. Damjan had it all. He took us to some fabulous restaurants, we drank incredible wine and learned a lot about Croatia in the process. His knowledge is extensive; delivered with charm and enthusiasm. If you want to make the most of your experience, Damjan is the right choice.

An afternoon Taste of Zagreb - The food tour gave us the opportunity to eat local foods and learn some of the history of the city. Our guide was excellent and the restaurants were chosen for the specific dishes. I would highly recommend the tour. With only one day in Zagreb, it was an easy way to see the highlights.

Not to Miss! - Ivan was a wonderful guide. Knowledge & friendly! I wish I would have scheduled this adventure at the beginning of my stay in Zagreb, Ivan had so many excellent recommendations. It was fun to learn the culture and make new friends.

A great tour led by a great host - Our tour was great. Our tour guide Ivan ( “but you can call me John”) was knowledgeable and personable and focused on making sure our group had a good time and learned a lot about his city. The food at the four restaurants we went to was local, excellent, and plenty…no one left without a full stomach! And the wines paired with the food were interesting and tasty. We would highly recommend this tour!
