    Varazdin

    After the pickup you will be driven to Varazdin in a climate-controlled vehicle. As you travel towards Northern Croatia, the guide will share an overview of the country’s fascinating history, with fun stories about local life and culture. Upon arrival, enjoy the city walking tour discovering the Old Town and Varazdin Cemetery, where gorgeous tombstones and quiet paths are overshadowed by tall, leafy trees. Follow back streets to architectural gems, and find some of the city's elegant villas - at one time, Varazdin was Croatia's capital. Lunch (2 course) at local restaurant.
