About this tour
This session walks Tkalčićeva street in its quiet daytime state, before the evening crowd arrives. You see the shopfronts and slightly uneven building levels, then learn the street sits directly over a stream the city built over generations ago. It stays on this one street throughout.
I move at an easy pace along the street, pause partway to explain the stream's history, and answer questions as they come up.
This suits anyone who wants to see this well-known street without its evening crowds. It also suits viewers curious about what lies beneath a modern street surface.
Included
- Live video walk with a local guide
- Questions to your guide all the way
- A short list of places to visit later
Not included

Itinerary
-
Welcome and sound check 5 min
The guide joins the video call, checks the picture and sound with you, and gives you a quick sense of Zagreb before heading out.
-
Tkalčićeva Street, Daytime 15 min
You see the street's shopfronts and cafe terraces quiet in the morning, and I explain why the buildings sit at slightly different levels, a trace of the uneven ground the street was built on.
-
The Medveščak Stream History 15 min
The camera pauses partway along the street, and I describe how this entire route once ran along a real stream before the city built over it in the nineteenth century.
-
Your questions 7 min
Time to ask anything about Zagreb: prices, safety, food, or whatever you are curious about.
-
A short list to keep 3 min
Before you go, the guide sums up with a few things worth remembering: a dish to try: Croatian wine and Upper Town, worth a slower look.
Good to know
- A stable wifi or mobile connection makes the picture smoother than a shaky one.
- Any phone, tablet or laptop with a camera works. You watch, the guide does the walking.
- Times are shown in Zagreb time, so check the time where you are before you book.
- The session is not recorded, and recording it yourself is not allowed. Feel free to take your own notes.
- Ask questions any time, out loud or in the chat. The guide will pause to answer.
- Sessions run in small groups, up to 10 people, so there is room for everyone to ask something.
