Samobor Carnival city
Samobor is a picturesque small town with a centuries-long history and rich cultural
heritage. Walking the town will seem like visiting a museum since each house has
its own history. The Samobor Carnival is an event with the tradition of more than
170 year.
Samobor is one of the most popular excursion destinations in the vicinity of Zagreb
and with its attractive surroundings has an envious position in the tourism of
northwestern Croatia. Duration: 6 hours
National Park Plitvice lakes
This is the oldest and largest Croatian national park and one of the most famous
parks in Europe, listed by UNESCO as one of the most valuable nature reserves
in the world. The bio system of the Park is a unique example of an open-air physical-biochemical
laboratory. The waters flowing over the limestone and chalk have, over thousands
of years, deposited barriers, creating natural dams, which in turn have created
a series of beautiful lakes, caves and waterfalls. These geological processes
still continue to this day. The forests in the Park are home to bears, wolves
and many rare bird species. Duration: 8 hours
Varadin Baroque city and Trakoaan Castle
One of the cities within the broader Zagreb region that should not be missed is
Varadin. The whole city of Varadin is a typical example of Baroque architecture
and is therefore called the Baroque city. Its old fortress is a cultural monument
of the highest category. Close to Varadin is the most popular and most frequented
castle - Trakoaan. Who built it and when is not known, but it is believed that
Trakoaan castle is a fortress built in the 14th century. With its beautiful landscape,
park-forest and a large artificial lake, the castle is an entity that will amaze
every visitor. Duration: 8 hours
Hrvatsko Zagorje Kumrovec ethno village and Veliki Tabor Castle
Round-shaped hills with vineyards and typical Zagorje - style cottages, small
rivers and brooks, woods, picturesque villages, castles, churches and other monuments
are evidence of the diligence and imperishableness of the Zagorje peasant. Each
village and small town of Zagorje has its own specific charm, its tale to tell
and will certainly surprise the visitor. A special part of this locality is Kumrovec
with its exceptionally valuable and attractive ethno-village and the castle Veliki
Tabor, a historic monument of the highest category, the finest example of the
fortification architecture of the late Middle Ages. It is one of the best-preserved
mediaeval fortresses in Croatia. Duration: 6 hours
