About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- 707johno0 contributionsThis is NOT a tour. It’s a very expensive driver. Save your money and rent a car.First off this is NOT a tour, this is a very expensive driver who picks you up and drives you to see Spomeniks. The driver was on time and friendly, but communication prior to the tour was difficult and the confirmation of the tour wasn’t received until very late. I could have let the expensive $325 drive go and not take the time to write this review, but when we asked about driving to see a very important Spomenik (“Uprising Monument nation Banija and Kordun”, which in fairness was not included on the tour) we felt we were brushed off and even lied to. We were told that the road to the monument was damaged in an earthquake in 2020. Out of my own curiosity I searched for recent pictures and many came up. When I asked the driver about this he then said it would add 3 hrs of driving (which we offered to pay for). Do you know how I know the road to the Uprising Monument nation Banija and Kordun is intact and the monument open? Because after we got back from this expensive drive, we rented a car and drove there. Interestingly enough there were other people there too. If he would’ve told me there wasn’t time, fine, but don’t tell us that the monument and road are closed. I don’t enjoy writing average to poor reviews, but this “specialized tour guide” was not even close. He was a very expensive driver who showed up in what looked like pajamas to drive us around. Save your money and rent a car, the roads in Croatia are very nice and easy to navigate.Written September 17, 2023
- larsSe0 contributionsFriendly, knowledgable and professional - highly recommendedWe did a private guided urbex tour with Iva as guide. It was one of the highlights of our vacation. We learned more about the locations and the history of the country while being on a family friendly urbex tour. We can only recommend Swanky Travel, and hope we will be able to return and explore more places.Written July 29, 2021
- Wmatiasz0 contributionsAmazing places around CroatiaI am staying at the hostel and with a bunch of guest we decide to make an urbex exploration and swanky offers us to plan it for us offering a guidence tour between 2 days It was awesome that two hours outside of Zagreb there's amazing monuments that tell us the history of the country And even more knowing that this 2 locations aren't touristic at all Željava underground airplane base Petrova hill abandoned monument Also the tour guide make us feel safe all the way and answer every doubt that we have about the place with fun facts as well.Written July 19, 2021
- CapucineBeuque0 contributionsUrbex tourAmazing one day trip ! We went to 3 different places and Iva, our tour guide, told us the history of those location. It was an interesting and awesome urban exploration ! I recommend if you would like to discover abandoned places !Written July 18, 2021
- 83salehg0 contributionsUrban explorationIt was a lovely trip, especially if you are into urban exploring and abandoned places, our tour guide Iva was great, she gave us a historical background on each location.Written July 15, 2021
- Monchomontoya0 contributionsUnderground, abandoned, awesome...What a trip... I am stuck in Zagreb so I decided to explore a bit and ended up booking an urbex tour with Swanky Travel. I knew that we are going underground and locations are abandoned but honesty I was not sure what to expect. It was a blast - soooo awesome and out of this world. The locations and the history are amazing and the guide was great as she explained everything along the way. Guys - if you are up to something different I highly recommend this tour 😊Written December 18, 2020
- NenaJanev0 contributionsA fun walking tourWe had a great time exploring Zagreb with Iva. She had interesting stories to tell us and was very fun to be around. I would reccomend going 100%Written July 27, 2020
- TimK34490 contributionsBeautiful views and interesting historyWe did an urban explorer day trip in mid may. The ride out was fun, lots of laughs with our group. We visited an abandoned WWII hospital tucked away in the woods and Iva gave us a lot of information about the site. The weather was really nice for an easy walk in the woods. After that we visited an abandoned monument and climbed to the top. It was an absolute cracker of a day and the 360 degree views at the top were incredible. That was the highlight of the day. You can get a gangsta goulash at the lodge there, if you stop for lunch I recommend it.Written June 1, 2020
- Jelena7127120 contributionsawesome dayI spent a great day on this urbex tour. Light walk in the beautiful forest to discover old partisan hospital, and then we visited really fascinating monument on Petrova Gora. The best part was an amazing view from the top of the monument (37 meters high and placed on the top of the hill. I spent the day in a great company and learned a lot. I highly recommend this tour, and I will definitely go on another tour with this agency.Written June 1, 2020

We had a very enjoyable tour of the museum and the castle. Our guide (and driver) was extremely knowledgeable about the museum exhibits and the history of the country in general and the castle in particular. I highly recommend this interesting and informative tour.

Trip was canceled at the last minute.No explanation given. My friend and I were only in Zagreb for a few days and really wanted to see this new museum and visit the castle. This was an expensive tour and we were looking forward to this as part of our travel to Croatia.
Trip Advisor needs to do a better job in protecting their travelers who usually have limited time available for tours. When travelers book tours, there should be some guarantee that the tours will take place. This was the second tour that was canceled on our trip to Croatia. Very disappointing

We had a such "cultural and historic" blast with our guide Franc. Strongly recommended! It was a very hot day but the beauty of Zagorje, and the castle Trakoscan erased our discomfort! The museum in Krapina that exhibits the evolution and mysterious disappearance of Neandertals was very informative and kids friendly!

Dear 188merid,
Thank you so much for your kind review. The fact that despite the hot weather you've had a wonderful cultural and historic experience means we exceeded your expectations. Also, thank you for your kind words about our guide Fran. We hope to see you again sometime and join one of our other tours!
Cheers!

Hi It's a few hours because you have to drive there and back. but the tour includes the grounds & the museum& travel time. It was last year I say 3-4 hours
Written July 2, 2019
I am interested in this tour on September 8 but need clarification: One place it states to meet at the Swanky Mint hostel and another place it states "Hotel pickup and drop-off." Which is correct? Is this tour in English? Thanks.
Written August 12, 2018
Our tour was in English, Not sure about your hotel pickup & drop off but we were in the heart of town & no cars could drive to the front door so we had to walk a little.
