ZAGREB FOOD TOUR

Zagreb Food Tour

Zagreb walking tour starts with a meeting at your accommodation or at an arranged meeting point in the city center.

There is no better way to get to know a city than through tasting all it has to offer. First you will take a walk through Dolac market. Usually referred to as the belly of Zagreb, Dolac market is the best place to see what Zagreb has to offer. For years it is an important place for local people but also for the local restaurants for fresh and tasty ingredients and products. You will hear all about kumice and you will know them in person too.

During this tour you will taste different specialties like: Zagreb stake, štrukli, fresh cottage cheese and cream, meat and cheese platter, Zagreb fast food…

The tour will end with a cup of coffee in one of the many Zagreb coffee shops (that’s tradition too).

Zagreb

The city of Zagreb is located in northwestern Croatia. It stretches from the southern slopes of Mount Medvednica right across the river Sava. For some Zagreb is a vibrant capital and for other is a city built on a human scale – just right. It’s streets never stop buzzing, no matter the season. Even in winter time you can see people having coffee outside on bar terraces. The legend said it got it’s name in the time of a big drought when a Croatian duke put his sword into the earth and the water started flowing so he said to his soldiers ”Zagrebite! – Scoop the water!”. Even though the area has been inhabited ever since the prehistoric times, the first written mention of the city dates back to 1094. This is when the Diocese of Zagreb was founded. Zagreb began as two settlements (Kaptol & Gradec), divided by a stream. In the 13th century it becomes a free royal city and starts to develop, but not until 1850. the 2 settlements were join in what we call Zagreb today. In 1991. it becomes the capital of Croatia.
