About the tour


Join us for a great introduction to the city of Pula, one of the oldest cities in Croatia whose origins date back to the ancient Roman ages. The rich heritage of Roman architecture makes Pula an outstanding exception among Croatia’s major cities. Its main attraction is the well-preserved Roman amphitheatre, which dominates the centre and hosts concerts and other cultural events especially in summer.

Our tour focuses both on history and culture and on the modern everyday life of Pula. At a moderate pace, you will also glimpse how it was to live in the ancient Roman colony of Pula.
