Krapina, Trakoscan Castle and Kumrovec Discovery
Meet your tour guide at your accommodation in Zagreb and begin your journey.
Drive to the Neanderthal Museum in Krapina, one of the best museums in Croatia. It is situated on the largest site of Neanderthal fossils in the world. Learn about human evolution and the beginnings of social living as you explore fascinating fossils and exhibits.
Continue to one of the most famous and best-preserved Croatian castles, Trakoscan. First built in the late 13th century as a small defensive fortress, the castle was reconstructed in neo-gothic style in the 19th century. For the last 60 years, Trakoscan Castle has housed a valuable collection of paintings, furniture, and weapons from the Renaissance era. As you walk through the halls of the castle and around its surrounding lake, you will enjoy an incredible experience complemented by the site's beautiful architecture, nature, and interesting legends.
Travel through picturesque landscapes and villages to reach Kumrovec, the birthplace of the former president of Yugoslavia, Marshal Josip Broz Tito (1892-1980).
Visit the Memorial Museum of Marshal Tito to see exhibitions and artefacts related to the life and times of Marshal Josip Broz Tito, as well as the role of Zagorje peasants in the Zagorje Revolution.
After the tour, your guide can recommend a restaurant serving traditional local food for a late lunch before your return to Zagreb.
