Selfguided

Coming soon….

Inspired by the recognition of this podcast, and by our new endeavours of selfguided tours in Zagreb, we started developing self-guided tours through Croatia. In 2025, expect the first tours curated by our team of experts and artists, in the form of printed booklets and a mobile app.

Stay tuned.

About

Selfguided tours & a podcast for wanderers Croatia Underrated

Croatia has so much to offer when it comes to natural and cultural heritage. The must-see places alone will take at least a week-long road trip. A very chaotic road trip once you realize just how much there is to see and how many incredible spots you have to skip this time. No wonder visitors often decide to come back or use a longer vacation for their Croatian holiday.

In recent years, I stopped bothering with the must-sees during my travels. I still make obsessive plans, but I don’t feel like I missed out on something if I don’t do it all. I much rather take a detour and see something less attractive for the masses, but far more genuine. I dare you to try a different Croatia. To spice up your must-sees with the unseen. To go places that even the locals often miss. To find your perfect Croatia. Croatia Underrated self-guided tours (in the making) and podcast (already made) are here to help.

We started Croatia Underrated because of all the hidden corners to be explored and curious tales to be told… I wanted to share at least some of them, and maybe shine some light on a path that will help you make a more meaningful impact during your Croatian travels.

Croatia Underrated podcast won several national & international rewards. The project of self-guided tours was recognised as an impactful and innovative project that could contribute to alleviation of pressure on massively visited destinations, and was supported by Pokreni nešto svoje (Start Your Own Thing).

It’s fair to say this project started quite spontaneously, when I came upon many poor reviews of Croatian attractions over and over again. Of places that I personally found striking and very special. You can now enjoy my curated list of terrible reviews of Croatian heritage, together with the fun comments as a part of the blog. If you feel those are a bit unfair, you might like the way I see Croatia: as a place of never ending discoveries.

Join us in exploration of underrated Croatia for a five-star-rated experience!
