Stroll with me through our historic town and enjoy a glass of local wine in a hidden corner of Pula with an amazing vibe: the only antique bookstore in Pula - Klub-Knjižara Giardini 2.

What better way to get to know a town than a relaxed chat with a local? :) Join me for a nice walking tour during which I will share with you interesting stories from our towns rich history, some tips and trick for getting around and relevant information about best museums or restaurants to visit.

We will finish the tour with a glass of wine in an antique bookstore in the city center. This hidden urban and cultural haven for bookworms, art lovers and intelectuals is situated in a small apartment just above the central square, yet spared from the noise, the rush and the summer heat.

Relax and cool yourself while listening to smooth ambiental music in this salon-like bookstore imagined as a place of leisure and immersion into local Art and Litterature.

Highly recommend Saša's walking tours. We were lucky enough to get a private tour and she was happy to tailor it to our interests and preferences (we chose entry to the Arena as we hadn't yet visited but she will give you the same tour from outside!). She's full of information and knows the best shady spots but clearly loves the town and region and her passion really shines through. The bookshop was an unexpected delight too and a great way to cool down after the walk (it's fully air-conditioned!). The owners at Giardini 2 were also very helpful and friendly, and the local wine was pretty good too!
Sasha was great! Highly recommend

Saša did an amazing job in creating Badass people in Pula tour. I enjoyed seeing Pula through famous people who once walked its streets, were born or lived there in some period of their lives. It was certainly an interesting perspective and I highly recommend this unique experience.
Awesome tour guide

Sasa was awesome and she tells really cool stories about the town of Pula and Croatia in general. The Badass people in Pula tour was amazing! Definitely would recommend to anyone willing to hear about Pula in a different way.
