10 Things to do in Zagreb, Croatia Travel Guide Video Transcript:
Our travels in Croatia brought us to Zagreb known for its lively street markets, vast green spaces, and varied architecture that spans numerous movements, we reached the capital and hit the ground running. In this video we’re going to show you some fun things to do in Zagreb, as well as share our favourite place for sampling the most delicious truffle dishes:
From the main square you have the Flower Market, and if you head up the steps, that leads to Zagreb’s Central Market.
Zagreb Cathedral is one the city’s main landmarks. This is the largest sacral building in the Gothic style southeast of the Alps, and it’s pretty easy to spot the spires wherever you are in the city.
Our walk through the Upper Town eventually lead us to Tkalčićeva. These days you’ll find a lively street lined with restaurants, cafes and bars.
We reached what may be the most memorable museum in the whole world: The Museum of Broken Relationships. The museum is a global crowd-sourced project that deals with heartbreak. Inside you’ll find curious objects with a corresponding story.
St. Mark’s Church bears the medieval coat of arms of Croatia, Dalmatia and Slavonia on the left-hand side, and the emblem of Zagreb on the right.
To enjoy city views of the Lower Town there are some great vantage points along the promenade.
On our way down from the Upper Town, we walked through Zagreb’s famed Stone Gate. Once the eastern gate into the medieval settlement now houses a small chapel.
Let’s take a break from all the sightseeing to introduce you to one of our favourite restaurants in Zagreb when it comes to truffle dishes
And craving more views of the city, we then went up Zagreb 360.
Known as the Green Horseshoe, this park was named after Milan Lenuci who came up with the idea of creating connected green spaces right in the downtown. The horseshoe is home to several museums, galleries and archives.
If you’re into hockey and you visit Zagreb during the season, you can catch a game in the city. We watched Medveščak Zagreb play.
And that’s it for our visit to Zagreb! We hope you enjoyed this travel guide and that you got a few ideas of things to see, eat and do on your own visit.

Our visit Pula travel guide documentary covers some of the top attractions including a food guide to pizza, top sightseeing tourist attractions and the city by day including visiting castles, forts churches, the old town, roman ruins, theatres, beaches and along the marina. We also cover off-the-beaten-path outdoor activities you won't find in a typical Pula tourism brochure, Pula itinerary or Pula, Croatia city tour also known as Pola.
10 Things to do in Pula, Croatia Travel Guide Video Transcript: (Pola)
Pula was our first introduction to Croatia and what a way to start! Located on the Istrian peninsula, this seaside town is home to Roman ruins, ancient temples, and some delicious pizza. The town won us over right from day one, so in this video, we’re going to take you on a tour of Pula and show you some of the highlights:
The amphitheatre was built during the reign of Emperor Vespasian, at the same time the Colosseum in Rome was going up. What’s even more shocking is how well preserved it is; this is the only remaining Roman amphitheatre with all four side towers and three stories still standing.
As a travel tip, if you visit during the summer months, you can catch numerous events at the amphitheatre, including concerts, movie screenings, and even reenactments of games from Ancient Rome.
When it comes to boat tours, the most popular destination is , a group of small islands that sit out on the Adriatic Sea.
The islands have a few archaeological and cultural sites but though admission to the park used to be free, these days you have to join one of the official excursions arranged by the park or local tourist agencies.
As for Pula Cathedral, it turns out it was closed when we tried to visit, so we can only show you the outside.
After all that wandering around town, it was finally time for lunch. We arrived at Jupiter Pizzeria just as they were opening and didn’t waste any time grabbing a seat on their outdoor terrace.
The fortress we spotted turned out to be Pula Castle, also known as Kaštel. Located atop a hill right in the centre of Pula, this fortress was built by the Venetians during the 17th century.
Admission was 20 kuna per person and there were two different museums exhibits to visit, however, we’d argue that the main draw are the views.
Over the course of the centuries, the Temple of Augustus has seen many uses from a Christian church to a grain storehouse, but at present, it houses a very small 1-room museum – and when we say small, we mean you can visit in 5 minutes!
The Roman Mosaic is just a short walk from the Forum, so it’s worth the little detour down back streets. This incredible well-preserved floor depicts the Punishment of Dirce, which is straight out of Greek mythology.

Located along Dalmatian coast overlooking the Adriatic Sea, Zadar happens to be the oldest continuously inhabited city in Croatia.

10 Things to do in Zadar, Croatia Travel Guide Video Transcript:
Let's visit Zadar, Croatia together as we cover 10 of the best things to do in Zadar in this travel guide.
Our first stop was Queen Jelena Madijevka Park which has the distinction of being the oldest public park in Croatia. The park looks over the Land Gate which is the main entrance to the Old Town.
During the 16th century, the Venetians helped Zadar withstand the Turkish sieges by building a large water cistern with five wellheads, giving this square its name. These five wells were used to supply the city with water until the year 1838.
Among the ruins of the forum, you might notice there’s one particular Roman column that still stands intact. This one is called the shame post which during the Middle Ages was used to chain and humiliate people who had committed crimes.
The Church of St. Donatus sits in the middle of the Roman Forum and it dates back to the beginning of the 9th century. The church was built in the Byzantine-style in a circular shape - typical of the early medieval construction in Dalmatia. This church has seen many uses from warehouse to museum, but these days it hosts concerts.
Located right next to St. Donatus, the bell tower is actually part of St Anastasija's Cathedral. Climbing this Romanesque bell tower is not for the faint of heart, especially once you reach the spiralling metal staircase on the last floor, but if you make it, you are rewarded with views of the town and the marina.
The meal came to 32 Euros for two mains, two glasses or red wine, and two desserts. The truffle gnocchi was our favourite truffle dish in Croatia.
When it comes to sunset, there are quite a few spots to choose from. We really enjoyed the pier right across from the Roman Forum, however, the Sea Organ is another popular spot. If you do go to the Sea Organ for sunset, you can also check out the Greeting to the Sun, which is another unusual art installation.
This solar-powered work of art lights up in an array of colours once the sun goes down.
Lastly, we leave you with a few scenes of Zadar at night.
We hope you enjoyed this video and we’ll see you in the next one as we continue our travels in Croatia.

Pizza in Croatia Review - Trying Croatian Seafood and Istrian Pizza in Pula Travel Food Video Transcript:
Pizza in Croatia. That is the plan for today's lunch. And you're probably thinking Pizza? You're not in Italy order something local. But pizza is super popular here. We're basically like right across the sea from Italy. You've just got the Adriatic in between. So yeah, pizza is huge here and we're eating at a place called Jupiter Pizzeria. Apparently it is the top pizza place in the whole city. Yeah. We researched it. We did our research guys.
We're getting one local pizza and another seafood one because we're right by the coast. So I can't wait for that to arrive. We also ordered a glass of red wine. So this is shaping up to be a great meal.
Guys so the food has arrived. So so quickly. I think they just threw in our pizza as soon as we ordered it and check it out. This one is the frutti di mare. The seafood one. And honestly I'm going to have to read the ingredients because there is so many that I don't even remember. Yeah. There is a lot going on. So frutti di mare. This one has tomato, cheese, scampi. I don't know what scampi is. Mussels, tuna, salted sardines, squid and garlic. And cheese. Did I also say cheese? It has got lots of cheese.
Sam ready to introduce use to your pizza? Yes. We've been neglecting this poor thing over here. And this is the Istriana one. Let's read off the ingredients. The menu. Because yeah it has a lot. So it comes with tomato, mozzarella, prosciutto, arugula, rucola, cherry and tomatoes. Haha. It is a challenging word for you over there. Yeah. That looks so good. Look at those colors.
I'm just totally in my happy place right now. Eating pizza. Pizza is one of my all-time favorite foods. It is what I grew up liking the most as a kid. And I mean my tastebuds have evolved but I still like a good pizza to me is right near the top of the food chain. And you know what is another reason to be in your happy place? Why is that? The weather. Yeah. You've got sunshine. I know I'm wearing shorts.
time for price point. Oh my gosh this was one of those meals where my belly is bulging out of my pants now. Yeah, we had no room for dessert. Oh, not even close. What we're going to do guys is we're going to take you out for gelato but after we walk around for a while. Actually we're going to take ourselves out for gelato. Locally that came to 136 Kuna and that is 21 US dollars. And to be honest that was outstanding value.
You've got ice cream all over your mustache. Oh my gosh it is so good I'm just pigging out on it. Anyways these were just a Euro. Really nice ice cream and now we are officially saying ciao. So we'll see you guys next time. Have a good day.

Zagreb Apartment Tour in Croatia
Come join us for an apartment tour in Zagreb, Croatia as we showcase our weeklong airbnb rental:
Our apartment:
AirBnB discount:
What loved about this place was first and foremost the location as we were right in the heart of the old town and secondly the courtyard with a friendly cat. Other pluses include a spacious livingroom, kitchen and bedroom but on the downside the apartment didn't have a washing machine which kind of sucked. Overall though for the price you pay we think this is a great value place to stay.

Zagreb Apartment Tour in Croatia Video Transcript:
Alright guys it is time for our Zagreb apartment tour. We have just come back from our last day of sightseeing. We are leaving tomorrow. This right here is our building.
Also I would like to mention there is a cat that lives in this courtyard. And this is what the apartment looks like from the outside. Okay. Let's go check it out. Going upstairs.
Turn on the light. And we are on the second floor right? First floor. Because the ground doesn't count. Ah, it is so nice we didn't have to carry our luggage all the way up. Like we have in the past.
Come on in. So here we are. Inside the apartment. Nice and cozy. This is the part where I admit we've been here a week and the place is an absolute mess.
And we are now ready for the apartment tour to commence.
So if you follow me this is our living area which is pretty spacious. I really enjoyed it. So we had a massive couch which was so nice for like lounging and watching a little bit of Netflix.
We had a TV that we didn't really use. And then our window looks out into the courtyard.
And then we had a little work desk that I did use but now it is just like storing our electronics. So yeah, that is kind of like the living area. Then if you follow me this way into the bedroom.
Nice big bed and we had a gazillion blankets in the closet. Oh yeah. Which was nice. Yeah, we've been actually using them. It has been getting chilly at night.
Okay moving on. The bathroom. Oh and in case we didn't let you guys know we have really high ceilings.
So it is a pretty good size bathroom I would say. So I'll just quickly show you guys the shower. That was the one thing the only liability of this place is it doesn't have a washing machine.
Sink and toilet. That is the bathroom for ya.
And the heating system in this apartment just so I can show you here. A radiator. This is actually how you turn it on. That is how you turn on both the hot water and the heating the central heating for the house.
Into the kitchen. Sam's office. This is where he hung out. Computer desk. We made tea here.
Um, yeah that is the kitchen really. There is microwave we didn't use. I did use the stove. I was making lots of pasta and polenta. Yep. Yeah, we ended up cooking here more than most other places. We made tonnes of pasta, salads.
And now let's talk about the price.
How much did this place cost? Money time. So this place cost 33 US dollars a night. Obviously if you stay for a week like us then you get a discount as well. And this place had a phenomenal location. Right in the heart of the Old Town. We were nearby several different grocery stores. We had great restaurant options. Both like kind of for fancy dining but also lots of bakeries. And we had a beautiful park just down the street. Yeah, I went jogging. I just felt right at home here. And you had a cat. A cat in the courtyard. It is like this place couldn't have been better. I'm going to miss the cat. I'm still going to try to arrange some tuna. A can of tuna for it. At night but um yeah that is getting a little off topic but anyways so yeah that is it for our time here in Zagreb, Croatia. Next up is Zadar. We are going to be heading back to the coast and then basically following the rest of our time in the Balkans. It is going to be along the coast so yeah. Alright, tata

Ferry from Split to Hvar, Croatia travel vlog Video Transcript:
Well good morning good morning. Good morning guys. Today is a travel day and we're actually it sure is running a little bit late. So let's make this look down at my shoe at the moment. Like I am tying my shoes and we're running out the door. We really don't have a second to spare. Haha. Okay, so basically we're currently in Zadar. Today we're taking the bus to Split and then the ferry to Hvar. We've got a bit of a long connection so that will be great. Maybe we'll do some sightseeing, maybe we'll get some work done but now let's do a quick apartment tour and let's get out of here. Let's do it.
The update is we have arrived here in Split. Yes. And guess what? The bus terminal is right across from the ferry terminal. It couldn't have been any more conveniently located. Yeah. And we weren't sure which bus terminal we were going to get dropped off at because there are two and one of them would have involved a 20 minute walk. Yes. But we are right out on the water. Yep. It is just incredible. And that bus ride that was something spectacular. Like the scenery was just stunning the whole way. It almost felt like we were on a sightseeing trip as opposed to like a normal bus ride. I just couldn't put my camera down so. Yeah, you were filming the whole way.
We've found a little quiet corner here in the ferry terminal. And Sam is making me do math. Yes. So let's talk prices. Bus tickets, we booked them online with Get By Bus and it was 86 Kuna per person which was about 13 US dollars. Yeah, and that was coming from Zadar this morning. Yep. Yeah, Zadar to Split. And then the ferry also booked it online with Jadrolinija and it was 40 Kuna per person which we said was 6 dollars? A little over 6 dollars. Yeah, yeah. So that is pretty good. And something to keep in mind is the bus was what 3.5 hours?
I had my little jaunt around Split. It was wonderful. Like this city is awesome. And you're probably wondering like this is a pretty famous city in Croatia. Yeah, why are we skipping it right now Sam? Why are we skipping it?
The reason being is that we're going to come here next year with my parents. Yes. So in March. We're doing Split and Dubrovnik with them. Yeah, yeah. Exactly. So we're skipping it this time and going to Hvar instead. But uh it certainly looks beautiful and yeah I can't wait to actually properly explore here. Okay, and now time to go find our ferry.
We've arrived! Now it is time to go find our apartment and then go out for dinner to find some pizza and pasta.
Okay guys we picked up some groceries on the way back. Yeah. We are absolutely destroyed. Knackered. Knackered to the next level. So we're going to say goodbye to you from here and yeah thanks for following along on this journey and we can't wait to show you around Hvar. Bye.
