Hello, My name is Hrvoje Dario. I'm of the Northern Croatia, and local of Zagreb and Varazdin. I've been working as a tour guide for a number of years now, guiding to every part of Croatia, as well as other countries in the region, such as Bosnia, Slovenia, Montenegro, and Austria. Beside stories and information, the four things I put the highest emphasis when guiding travelers are safety, respect, care and comfort. Travelers should always feel safe and comfortable, while being treated with care and respect. Being a traveler myself, I am well aware of the significance of a travel and the effect it has on us and those around us. In my free time I like to read, write, go to nature, visit interesting places, reading articles and books on history, psychology, anthropology, meditation, astronomy, sustainability. My travels have so far taken me across five continents; some journeys being in the Middle East, the Americas, South and Southeast Asia, North Africa, Europe etc. Beside having various other benefits, such travels have also exposed me to the work of international tour guides, which gave me insights into improving my own guiding tours. It is important to me that the travelers I guide feel relaxed and enjoy every moment of it, and to have a memorable experience. I also aim that you experience my country not just as a tourist, but rather to see how things are here, to get an understanding of its everyday life, and perhaps to even feel like a local. If you are interested in coming to Croatia and explore it with a guide, feel free to contact me. I've finished tour guide course and am licensed to guide in Varazdin and Zagreb counties as a tour guide, and all over Croatia and surrounding countries as a tour leader. I've specialized in tourism branch by finishing the Zagreb School of Management (current VERN) back in 2007.

Overview of your Varazdin tour

This tour offers an exploration of one of the Croatian prime center of culture and a hidden gem - Varazdin. Beautiful historic town Varazdin is situated in the Northern Croatian valley surrounded with the hills of Zagorje, the Drava river and its forests, only an hour drive from Zagreb, near the border with Hungary and Slovenia. Its history goes back to medieval times, when it thrived as a merchant center. During the 18th century it was the capital of Croatia, and a popular center for nobility and aristocracy to exhibit luxury through their palaces and the popular architectural styles of the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries, reminiscent of charming Austrian towns. On this tour we will thoroughly explore the city center in order to truly feel and understand Varazdin, its history, but also its present. People are often enchanted by the beauty of Varazdin and are glad to have made the choice to have come and visit it.
