Zagreb has been a prominent city for over a thousand years and has managed to maintain its historical layout. Today it has a fascinating mix of old and not quite so old that embraces everything from Early Gothic through to modern era Communist-inspired architecture. At the very heart of the city lies the Gornji grad and Donji grad (or Upper and Lower Towns), filled with fascinating architecture and some excellent restaurants that are well worth seeking out.

Shopping in Zagreb is fun, and the city has designated areas or ‘Placs’ where you can buy and barter everything from vintage clothes to perfume and souvenirs. Zagreb has a rich café culture, and there are plenty of small cafés selling excellent coffee and pastries around the main squares of the Old town. Culinary packages will give you a chance to explore the traditional Croatian cuisine of the region, including the city’s obsession with pancakes!
