Discover the history of Croatia on a private day trip from Zagreb. Visit Trakošćan Castle and Varaždin, a town known for its well-kept baroque buildings and ancient sites.

In the past, Varaždin was the capital of Croatia. See its history in the town's colorful buildings, lovely churches, and old streets with many of the buildings built in the 18th century. This makes Varaždin a cultural treasure. Varaždin is also famous for its festivals, shows, and handmade goods. People often call the town “Little Vienna” because of how lively its music and art scenes are.

The trip goes on to Trakošćan Castle. This ancient fortress was built in the 1300s and is set on a hill with a beautiful lake and wooded areas all around it. Walking around the castle, see rooms filled with old paintings, antiques, and other things that show how the Croatian nobility lived. The inside of Trakošćan Castle has been carefully kept so that people can see furniture, weapons, and art that are hundreds of years old.
