"Superb tour! Everything is well planned with Jakov!! He knows his region really well and makes sure his guests know it by the end of the tour. Jakov is funny and witty and it's always a pleasure to tour with him. We were on a 9½ day tour with him throughout Slovenia and Croatia. Both countries are beautiful and we'd love to visit again. We will surely tour with Jakov only!!"

"In love with Croatia. My wife & I brought along the whole family of 9, including her parents aged 84 and 82. We spent 10 days through Austria, Slovenia, Croatia & Montenegro. Jakov's attention to detail for the old folks is highly commendable. Definitely one of the best guides that we have had."

"Jakov is a walking, talking encyclopaedia and his English is excellent! He took us from Split to Zagreb via Zadar and Plitvice and was very accommodating with our pace. It's almost like hanging around a new city with your buddies — very knowledgeable ones! I cannot recommend him enough."

"Great guide! Jakov was amazing — super flexible with our plans, took into consideration our young kids (8 and 5). He has a vast knowledge of history, culture, gastronomy and knew pristine, less touristy spots that are great for the entire family."
