Great tour, great guide - I really enjoyed this tour. Our guide (sorry, forgot her name) was excellent and very knowledgeable, plus her English was perfect. The village of Varazdin was beautiful! She gave us a tour of the town, and then we had plenty of time to walk around and explore the town on our own and have lunch. Then we drove to Trakoscan Castle, which was very interesting and historic. There are quite a few steps to get up to the castle, but everyone in the group was able to make it. The views from the castle were spectacular. Highly recommend this tour if you are visiting Zagreb.

Wonderful day in Varazdin and Trakoscan - and cultureMaya gave us a wonderful trip to Varazdin and Trakoscan Castle. She picked us up right on time and we were off in her car to Veazdin. Not only was she an excellent driver but she gave us a running commentary on the countryside, what we would see and Croatian culture, She gave us a very detailed tour of the charming town of Varazdin and recommended a fabulous cafe for coffee and cake. Then we were off to Trakoscan Castle where she provided a wonderful and detailed tour of the castle. This tour was one of our highlights of Croatia.

Peaceful Day Trip - Maja was a great guide and the trip was so peaceful. There were only four of us and when we went to the castle on the hill we were the only ones in the castle, the whole time! Maja had umbrellas ready for if it rained, and the trip was flexible to our needs. She kept things on a good schedule without us feeling rushed. Beautiful sites on this day trip, I do highly recommend it. A great way to see a relatively undiscovered (for foreigners) part of Croatia.

Ying and yang - Maja is a wonderful guide with patience, knowledge and understanding.
While I thought the castle part was bland, the Varazdin part was really wonderful with its many churches, colorful buildings, and, of course, angels.
