Guiding Tours is something that I consider more than just a profession, the part that I like even more is meeting people from all over the world. . . and as long as I will be passionate as I am, I will do it best possible way. Satisfied and well-informed guest is my primary goal, and since I am the one representing and presenting this beautiful corner of the world I am coming from, it is always my greatest honour and pleasure to see happy guests after the tour I organize and provide. According to my "style", it is not that much about the facts you can find and read in classic guidebooks, Internet or any other source, it is according to guests specific interests or needs, no matter if it is about history (which is btw. my eternal hobby nr. 1), lifestyle, nature or anything else. . . I am a guide with answers, eloquent, communicative, sometimes with local humour that spices up the story even more. . . :) Croatia as my homeland and Adriatic - Mediterranean - Central European - Balkan Region of Istria is indeed a beautiful corner of the world and I appreciate that more and more visitors are coming to see it and experience it. If you wish to see it with an insider with more than thirty years of experience as a Tour Guide, you have found the right person here. I am offering you a nice selection of tours that are not only popular and very well accepted by guests but also favoured by me. Otherwise, if you have any specific interests or preferences, I will be more than happy to prepare a custom-tailored tour for you, to enhance your pleasure and experience even more. . . *** WELCOME!!! - DOBRODOŠLI!!! - BENVENUTI!!! - WILLKOMMEN!!! *** Licensed Local Guide for Istarska Zupanija (Istria Region) since 1997.

We thoroughly enjoyed our private walking tour of Pula’s historical sights with Matijas. He was a veritable fount of information, engaging, and generous with his time and energy. At our request Mat customized our tour to spend our first hour in the Roman amphitheater (we purchased tickets for entry separately online), which was fascinating, and we appreciated that he...
Matt was truly exceptional. He has an amazing grasp of the history of Istria and its place in Europe past and present. He has a great sense of humor, is patient and passionate about this part of the world. He gave us great recommendations for things to see beyond Rovinj and into Slovenia. He is the best guide we’ve had by far. Recommend him without hesitation!
