Zagreb Old Town Sightseeing Tour

How did the two towns become a single city?

How did the two small towns merge into one? History that spans over 900 years of Kaptol and Gradec resulted in an 1850 union into a city that continues to expand towards Sava River in a harmonious beauty of historicism, secession and modern. A licenced tour guide will lead you to Kaptol; together you will explore the baroque palaces and defensive walls from the Middle Ages on Gradec, and take a ride on the shortest funicular in the world, the one that connects Lower and Upper Town. In the end you will be greeted by the shade of plane trees on Zrinjevac, next to the city’s old core.

I was very looking forward to coming to Zagreb, especially because my mother travelled with me. My people found out everything about it, so that we could see the main stuff in the city!

Jesse Eisenberg (actor) spent the autumn in Zagreb in 2007: Zagreb is an incredible town. I enjoyed sightseeing the old parts of the town, and at night I went to clubs. I was thrilled that it was near Austria and Italy, so I visited Venice, Milan, Ljubljana, Graz, Split... over the weekends.
