Fantastic start to our Croatian experience! - What an absolutely wonderful day we had on this tour! After meeting Karlo and our other two group members at the designated place and time we enjoyed fresh tasty pastries before embarking on a comprehensive tour of the highlights of Zagreb with Karlo providing an overview of the Croatian and Zagreb history and culture. The tour was very well paced with regular stops at shops and market stalls to sample Croatian specialities including pastries, cured meats, cheeses, breads, olive oils, truffles, wines, liqueurs etc. Karlo explained the making processes and areas from which the products originated. The day was topped off with a leisurely lunch at a restaurant in the old town with many locals present. There was an abundance of tasty dishes and sparking wine to enjoy. Karlo obviously loves his job and is passionate about his city and country. He was very personable with a fun sense of humour. The tour was varied covering historical, government and leisure areas and activities. We saw and learnt so much. Especially impressive was his communication via WhatsApp from the time our booking was made. He also sent us recommendations for other restaurants and activities for Zagreb and places we are yet to visit as he said he would after the tour. There is no better way to learn about a place than through the eyes of a local! Thanks Karlo from Bespoke Tours!

Outstanding Way to Experience Zagreb - I loved this tour so much! Karlo was an excellent guide, providing history, insights, and an amazing overview to beautiful Zagreb. I would even use some of the information on this tour later during my trip. The food along this tour was delectable and all of the local food vendors we met up with were so friendly and welcoming. Karlo was also nice enough to give me some great recommendations for food for the rest of my trip and they were spot on. Definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Zagreb.

Come hungry, try everything and leave with a full tummy and a new friend! - This was absolutory my favorite tour of our trip! From the moment we booked Karlo was communicating with us. He even shared some restaurant recommendations with us before our tour so we knew where to go to dinner. The day of the tour he showed up with amazing traditional Croatian pastries. We then proceeded to do a charcuterie, cheese and olive oil tasting (at different locations) before heading to the market for more tastings. Along the way he told us about the history of Croatia. We ended the tour at a delicious restaurant tasting more traditional Croatian food. Leave the ordering up to Karlo to ensure you get to experience everything they have to offer. We spent the entire day with Karlo and for everything included the value is amazing. Come hungry, try everything and leave with a full tummy and a new friend! Thanks Karlo!

Worth it - Karlo is very witty and made me laugh. He was very easy to be around and enjoyed showing me the sights. He is a foodie and loved talking about the food that we ate during the tour. We covered a lot of ground and got to see some historical sites in the area.

Food and fun! - Karlo was a wonderful host, greeting our group of 8 friends with a local pastry - burek - to start the walking tour! My husband, who has celiac disease was also surprised and delighted to see Karlo was able to have a delicious and flaky gluten free burek for him too! He was very proactive and sensitive to all of the food allergies and preferences of our group. He was a knowledgeable and thoughtful and we learned a lot through the tour. He provided a ton of great suggestions for places to try and since we did the tour our first full day in Zagreb we had lots of time to try his suggestions. We were lucky enough to also spend the next day with him on the Plitvice Lakes tour where we had a lovely full day of hiking and picnic lunch. All in all, it was a terrific experience and he was a fun and gracious host!

Such an AWESOME experience - WARNING: DO NOT EAT BREAKFAST!!! Karls is such a personable, knowledgeable and generous host - such a nice blend of history and food bites that we never would've found! We walked away with a new found appreciation of creation food & wine culture and Karlo is generous in sharing his recommendations of all things local and whatever else he has gathered up in his travels 🙏🙏
