Your Experience

There is no better way to explore Zagreb than to take a walking tour that lets you soak in its rich culture and spectacular architecture. Walk through the Lower and Upper Towns, and witness lush greenery, vibrant streets, historic sites, and local markets.

Explore the Lower Town in Zagreb City Center

Situated in the Green Horseshoe, a U-shaped city square, Zrinjevac is a park in Central Zagreb. Stroll through this verdant part of the city and proceed to Ban Jelačić Square. It is the central square of Zagreb with centuries-old buildings and antique facades. It is also the boundary between Gornji Grad (Upper Town) and Donji Grad (Lower Town).

Marvel at the historic Upper Town of Zagreb

Proceed to a ride on the Zagreb Funicular—the world's shortest public transport funicular with a track length of only 66 meters, to reach the Upper Town. Pass through the passageways of Grič Tunnel, which served as a bomb shelter and a promenade during World War II. Visit the Zagreb Cathedral and be awed by its towering height, Gothic architecture, and the two recognizable spires. Visit the Dolac Market, a renowned open farmer's market. Follow it up with a stroll on the pedestrian Tkalčićeva Street, the most vibrant street in Zagreb with many bars, cafes, and souvenir shops. See the Lotrščak Tower, a 13th-century edifice where a cannon is fired daily at noon to mark midday. End your tour at the 13th-century Stone Gate, a shrine and an important oath site of medieval Zagreb.

Experience the contrasting Lower and Upper Towns and ride on the world-famous funicular in the city of Zagreb with an expert local guide.
Take in the vibrant atmosphere that fills Ban Jelacic Square, the time-tested people’s meeting place with lots of cafes and restaurants.
See the neo-gothic cathedral in Zagreb, one of the most defining landmarks in Croatia, before visiting the colorful Dolac Market selling fresh fruits, vegetables, and much more!
Go on a trip in the world's shortest funicular ride in Zagreb to reach the Upper Town with top sights such as the Lotrscak tower that still fires a cannon at noon.
Fun Fact: Many homes in Zagreb have spikey ball-like roof ornaments. As the people of Zagreb once believed in witches, they put up these spikes to entangle the dresses of women who would fly on their broomsticks at night and bring them down.
