Description

Good to Know

If you want to experience the vibrant local spirit and explore our city's culture through the lens of Croatian cuisine spiced up with little history, this tour is for you. Delve with us into Croatian culture and culinary traditions as we uncover the interplay between food and history. From uncovering the roots of why Croatians breathe the way they do to exploring the connections between food and historical events, you'll gain a deeper understanding of our table culture. Our tour isn't just about tasting delicious dishes; it's a journey filled with insights into why Croatian cuisine is so intertwined with our heritage. Along the way, we'll visit significant Zagreb landmarks, each with its own story to share and try a variety of traditional foods... and hopefully, my personal touch will as well enhance your experience, for just a little bit.

Great Experience, a must do

Tea was an extremely inviting and friendly guide making this a very personal experience. She is a genuine foodie and freely provides insights into life as a local in Zagreb with the culture/food balance perfect. The food was authentic and plentiful and I can’t recommend this tour enough.

Best Croatian Food Tour!

This was the best and most comprehensive food tour we have ever taken! Tea was wonderful; so friendly and knowledgeable and she went to great lengths to explain the heritage and history of the Zagreb area and food. She even provided excellent dining suggestions for the rest of our trip.

Worth Every Euro! Incredible food & history tour.

This was the best tour we did on our 10 day trip in Croatia. Highly recommend!! Tasting the cuisine of the area really elevated our vacation experience and doing so early on in our trip was especially helpful. Tea is a fabulous tour guide and it was a real joy to see the city from her perspective. So much food to taste!! Definitely come with an appetite!

Tasting Your Way Through Typical Croatian Food

We were a small group of 3 so she was able to be flexible with timing at each location. She even shared some homemade grappa/brandy with us. The sour cherry was amazing. Be prepared with empty stomachs as this tour provides a LOT of tastings followed by a lovely lunch of hearty Croatian food. We chose stuffed pep...read more

Excellent Food Tour

This was one of the best food tours we have taken. Our guide Tea was amazing. You will learn the history of the food itself along with general history of the city & country. Tea also brought along a homemade baked good from her kitchen which was truly a special touch. She took very good care of us by asking us questions of what type of restaurants we liked (casual vs more full meals, wines, beer, or cocktails), so she could give us recommendations for the rest of our week in Zagreb. The next day...read more
