Our tour guide was amazing and very passionate about the tour and its contents. Good unbiased perspective. His name was Vid i believe.

Homeland war tour is definitely a most if you are savy for understanding the region and the people. Luka our guide was amazing not only by wisely paking 100years of history in 2hours but always when possible adding some satire and jokes. I did both the free walking tour in the morning and this one in the afternoon. Recommend both and if you want to have a day packed with learning and fun, I can tell you it's possible. Once again, fully recommend and thanks Luka for the quality of the tour.

One of the best and most fascinating tours I've ever been in. Told by someone that experienced the war as a child, it was a truly eye opening few hours and I can't recommend it highly enough.

The guide – Vid – was fantastic! He was was incredibly knowledgeable and able to answer very specific questions. He did a great job of laying out an incredibly complex and contentious history in a way that was both digestible and engaging. I would strongly suggest this tour to anyone even tangentially interested in the modern history of Croatia.

I was in two minds if to do this tour after having done the general free tour in the morning. I’ve not got any regrets. First of all you get a good discount by doing the tour in the morning. It is a completely different tour and it was so thought provoking. Vid is an amazing guide and via his family he has first hand experience of the war. He gives a what I thought was an unbiased view whilst also accepting that others have different views. The ending was very sad whilst also very thoughtful. I would highly recommend this. A little side note. I was the guy who “lost” his camera. Well it was in my bag the whole time!

Great tour about war and communism with Ivana. I have already taken dozens of walking tours in different countries and definetely this is one of the best tours that I have ever done. I learned a lot during the tour and was able to fulfill my desire of knowing more about this subject, which was one of the reasons that motivated my trip to Zagreb. Ivana was always ready to take our questions and her background in history is definetely important for running a tour like this. I truly recommend it!

I normally don't go on walking tours but because so many buildings were still closed for repairs I felt as if I needed something more to get the sense of Zagreb and Croatia. On my second to last day I decided to join the free walking tour given by Diana. At the end she mentioned this tour that would take place later in the same day and I decided I would go along. She gave a very clear and impartial account of the war with plenty background to offer context. I would highly recommend the tour in general and that guide in particular. It was very poignant and well worth it.

I randomly met Diana in the main square and I’ve been caught by her enthusiasm in story-telling. I joined for the full trip and it’s been the best choice! Really satisfied. Diana was awesome.

Very informative introduction to those turbulent times!Diana has her own way (with a great sense of humor) to keep things interesting. We felt very intrigued to explore more about the war time. Keep up the good work 💯

I highly informative tour that tells the story of Croatia in the greater context of Yugoslavia. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Zagreb. Our guide was engaging, enthusiastic and helpful!

This is a very informative tour that you can take, with the benefit of having the secret bunker/passages shown and led through by the guide. It was a small group; I previously did the 'free' walking tour with Vid, who said he was also doing the Communism tour later the same day. He did offer a small discount for those that had taken the earlier walking tour. In comparison to the free tour, the information is a little more heavy-handed. Vid is extremely well-informed about the long history about conflicts in the region, and I believe does it in a fairly diplomatic and objective way.There's a lot more (complex) information and history. The last part of the tour was mostly watching a film in one of the underground areas, personally maybe not as interesting for me as hearing stories or seeing sites, but was nice to get off my feet and sit. Highly recommended for history buffs.

Amazing and very impressive experience. Highly recommended for everyone. Ivana is a great storyteller and her history knowledge is admirable. As a croat myself, I can understand how hard it is for her to be objective, but she did a really good job.

Diana was a great guide, who made this difficult topic absolutely captivating! A very dense walk through Croatia's recent history

Vid was an amazing tour guide who gave a very detailed and balanced view of the history of Croatias history, he went the extra mile by constantly giving time for questions and talked to us for a while about our questions on Balkan history long after the tour was finished.

Diana welcomed us and explained many details about the history of Croatia and Yugoslavia, including the different wars it experienced. She took us to different historical sites including the war tunnels. The short movie documentary was very helpful for understanding Croatia’s history.

Diana is a well informed, polite, humorous and energetic tour guide who presented the history of Croatia and former Yugoslavia. My wife (who is Bosnian) and I both learned lots and were impressed with how Fiona represented the facts in a fair and accurate manner. Will recommend to future family and friends! Thanks for your insight and charm, Matt and Doris
