The Guide is a Croatian travel agency that designs custom private tours throughout Croatia, Slovenia, Hungary, Italy, Austria and the Balkans. Every itinerary is hand-crafted — never templated.
Jakov Radman — The Guide
Let me introduce myself in a few words. This is one of the most important pages on our site — it tells you what you can expect from The Guide. The next most important page is our guests' testimonials, where you can read their honest words about travelling with us.
I'm a people person, deeply passionate about history and culture, and forever chasing new experiences. Travelling has been my greatest joy for over 15 years. In recent years, working as a tour guide and tour leader throughout Croatia and the surrounding region has become my favourite occupation of all.
It is a dream come true to share my knowledge and love for my country with our dear guests from all over the world. Sharing the glory and beauty of Croatia and our region with my future friends — that continues to be my greatest joy.
See you in Croatia! — Jakov

Adventurer · Storyteller
Marko is young, energetic, and curious. He has worked and travelled across a dozen countries (Mexico is his favourite), but Croatia — where he was lucky to be born — is the one he most loves to share. Expect history, hidden corners, and genuine warmth.

Our tours are custom-designed to let you enjoy the very best a country has to offer. Simply put — you can trust us to do what we say. We never agree to a tour we cannot do well.
One designer, your dedicated point of contact — from first message to last farewell.
Local families, hidden konobas, secret beaches. We share the Croatia we love, not the postcards.
Drivers, restaurants, tickets, transfers — all arranged. You simply enjoy.
