Popular Tour Itineraries Featuring Zagreb

As Croatia's capital, Zagreb is always very lively, but my favourite time in Zagreb is spring. As a very green city with lots of parks and people with flowers everywhere, it's an extremely beautiful time of year. Magnolia trees everywhere, their petals flying around on a light breeze, and the whole city living outside, on the streets, in cafes, markets, it's like everything wakes up at once. And, despite being a big city, Zagreb has the fragrance of the thousands of roses people plant in their yards and on their balconies.

Zagreb has a special vibe that always makes me feel like I'm home. There is always something going on, cool festivals (the burger one is awesome!), concerts, and exhibitions. I love walking in the parks in the city centre, cool cafes, and eating at the excellent restaurants with amazing local/fusion/international cuisine. Zagreb is a town where everybody can find something for themselves.

I've liked Zagreb from the very first time I visited, as it was a whole new world. Afterward, I lived there as a student and with the great memories I made there, I'm always happy to be back. Zagreb represents diversity, variety, freedom, culture and friends. I love its historic and mysterious Upper Town with so many stories linked to it. I like its parks, its cultural and art scene, its vibes. I equally enjoy sipping coffee in cozy cafes in winter or outside on the patio, watching passerby. I particularly like Zagreb in spring. I also love to eat štrukli, take a cable car to Sljeme mountain, and cycle or walk along the Sava River and its lakes.
