Hi everyone! I see you are looking at my profile. That's a good start :) Let me introduce myself. You can say that I practically derive from tourism. For the last 16 years I have been actively working as a licensed local guide, driver-guide, receptionist and certified adventure guide (kayaking, hiking and cycling). In addition I have studied tourism and got my masters degree in the same field. This job is giving me the freedom to create unique experiences, for myself and for all of my clients and business partners. My tours are very much a reflection of me as a person. That means they are done in an amicable and relaxed way with a lot of laughter. All the lovely people I've had the chance to meet have joined me because they share the same enthusiasm and I see this as the main value of what makes my tours different. While working in tourism I had the honour to meet with wonderful people from all over the world that have enriched my life. All those experiences helped me understand what people really want and expect from their vacation. As the world is changing so is the needs for travel. Personally when I travel, I like to emerge myself into the life of the locals and get to know the culture. That is also my goal, to help you escape the generic tours and focus on experiences that really matter. My specialty are food and wine tours, hike tours, customized Plitvice Lakes tours, cultural day trips to Varaždin and Trakošćan castle, unique walking tours of Zagreb and of course tailor-made tours of entire Croatia. I use a car or a van for day trips of multi-day experiences. I simply love my country and I make sure that people who visit Croatia, experience it in the best possible way. So let's spice up your Croatian vacation with authenticity, knowledge, humor and friendship. -Licensed Local Tourist Guide For Zagreb city and Zagreb county -Licensed Local Tourist Guide for Lika-Senj county(Plitvice Lakes) -Licensed Local Tourist Guide for Varaždin and Varaždin county -Adventure guide license No restrictions

Overview of your Zagreb tour

Leave the hustle and bustle of the concrete jungle behind you and and join me on exploring one of the most beautiful National Parks in the world. I have been there more than 1000x so you can put your trust in me to make this experience amazing! On your way to Plitvice Lakes we will visit Rastoke, a village famous for its watermills. I would say, a great place to stretch our legs and soak in the "watery" atmosphere. Before we enter the park you will decide which level of activity suits you best and together we will tailor the tour accordingly. In the park you will be mesmerized by the beauty of the waterfalls and 16 interconnected emerald lakes and the flora and fauna surrounding them. I sure am! :) I love cooking and preparing food so I will share that passion with you by setting up a small picnic with some homemade specialties from my families farm. As the sun sets, finish your day with a relaxing drive, casual atmosphere, friendly chatter, and memories for a lifetime!

Your Zagreb tour itinerary

In the morning hours you will get picked up at your accommodation in Zagreb. During the 1. 5 hour drive to our first stop we will get to know each other pretty well and of course I will share interesting stories about the history of the region. First stop will be Rastoke village for a short break (30 min) and some beautiful photo opportunities. Once we reach the National Park (additional 30 min drive) you will be given an overview of the trails and choose your own activity level. Depending on the level you choose, we will spend 2-6 hours in the park. We can always play it by ear and adjust during the tour itself. In the park we will explore the Lower and the Upper Lakes (depending on the season some parts might be closed). At one point we will take a short break to enjoy some of the homemade specialties that I have brought from my family run farm. Once we finish the tour of the park you will be driven back to Zagreb (approx. 2 hour). *this tour can be customized by cheese tasting or a traditional lunch
