Description

What we will explore:

- The Heart of Rijeka: we start at the iconic Jadran Square (Jadranski Trg), stroll along the vibrant Korzo promenade, pass under the City Clock Tower, and step through the ancient Roman Arch to discover St. Vitus Cathedral.

- Myths & Legends: who was Carolina of Rijeka, and how did she save the city? Was Al Capone’s mother really running a business from here? Get ready for the most intriguing local secrets!

- The Mystic Trsat: we will embrace the spiritual heritage of the city and enjoy a scenic path towards the Trsat Castle, where the Frankopan noble family ruled centuries ago.

Fantastic tour

Great morning with Natanael. Very knowledgeable and personable guide. We had a great time learning about your lovely city. So much history that we would not have known without the tour. Totally recommended.

Informative abd enjoyable

A "must-do" in Rijeka, which on the surface is rather underwhelming. Natanel's knowledgee combined with local pride delivers a lot of information and sheds light on otherwise unknown facets of Rijeka's past. Excellent tour!

What a fantastic Historian Guide!

Natanael being local and a historian, knows Rijeka’s & the interesting regional history. He also has great pictures to accompany historical events that happened in the city. We came out of this tour knowing so much, which is rare for free walking tours and made it unique! Great Job Natanael!

Personal Tour

This was my first "personal" tour because I had been the only one who signed up for the tour on that day. But Natanael was there, nothing was canceled and we did the 3-hour tour tailor-made according to my questions and needs. This was great. I recommend it.
