Meeting Point

Our free walking tour starts in Park Zvezda, right next to the anchor statue. Look for the mint-colored umbrella, that’s your guide and the easiest way to spot us in the park.

Park Zvezda is just a short walk from Prešeren Square and is easy to reach on foot from most central hotels and apartments. Plan to arrive a few minutes early so you can find the group, relax, and be ready to start on time.
