Zagreb got its start as two medieval fortress towns atop hills overlooking the Sava River, and was reborn in the Baroque period as center of business, perfectly located on routes connecting Central Europe to the Adriatic Sea. These days, Zagreb is the heart of contemporary Croatia’s culture, art, sports, and academics, but its history is not forgotten. The unique blend of medieval towers, 19th century palaces, open-air markets, and ancient cathedrals, make Zagreb the perfect city to explore.

As soon as we arrive to the Upper town, we will enjoy the most beautiful view at Zagreb and travel through time... Our tours starts: Lotrščak tower & "big bang" (hint: not a theory if you join the tour before noon) – Strossmartre – the one-of-a-kind museum in the world (Museum of a Broken Relationships) – hommage to Nikola Tesla – the most colorful roof among churches (St. Marks church) & the pillar of shame – Dante's grandson pharmacy – Stone gate – witches' rooftops – Mills stairs – monument to prostitutes & red light district of past times – „Craft beer“ pearl (Opatovina) – the 'belly' of the city (Dolac market) – Zagreb Cathedral – Ban Jelačić Square.

Loved it! Velenje Underground is quite an unusual experience. Having a fancy dinner 160 m below surface, combined with some artistic performance / music is really something »out of the box«. The idea behind this project was to elevate tourism in Velenje to a higher level, namely to create a memorable, 5 star experience for turists. This goes hand in hand with the vision of the tourist destination Slovenia… Slovenia as a green boutique global destination for high-end visitors seeking diverse and active experiences, peace, and personal benefits. A destination of five-star experiences.

Are you enjoying different traditions of architecture? You really can do that in Old Zagreb- three parts three different lifestyles. First, from the 11th century, there was a roman-catholic diocese- Kaptol. Then, from the 13th century, there was a free royal town- Gradec. In the 19th century, they were united and a new part was created- so called Lower town. Do you know that all together, that is old Zagreb; build until the First World War? Even if they are very close to each other, different groups of people, with different architecture and living conditions, developed these parts in a different way. Who were citizens of different parts? How did they live and work? Who were the wealthy ones? What were the differences between them and how and when did all together become one city? This tour is for history lovers to find out what was local life in the past like!

The food wasn't warm and the waiters weren't fast and serious . The restaurant looks cool but it isn't .
Are you ready to discover Zagreb from old town to a modern area? The best is to start from Ban Jelačić square and follow tower Lotrščak, which is filled with sidewalk cafes and boutique shops. Pay attention to Kaptol- Zagreb Cathedral- 11th-century architectural grandeur, assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary. It is Zagreb landmark and the tallest building in all of Croatia. If you are in love with Gothic-style sacral architecture, a walk through this cathedral is a divine experience. Like moving through the time- renaissance walls, Dolac fruit and vegetable market, the bloody bridge, the famous Stone Gate (Kamenita Vrata), the ruins of archways and walls of the Stone Gate connects the travelers to the medieval history of the city. One of the important Zagreb points of interest is the tower Lotrščak. Built-in the 13th-century, it offers a 360-degree view of the Zagreb city from the top. Moreover, it has conducted a ceremony every day for the last hundred years. How nice is that?
