Why this trip
Not every family trip leads to the sea: Zagreb is a city where children can romp on meadows and still experience something. Between May and June and in September and October the days are mild, and the city shows its calm side. Maksimir Park is the highlight for families. It has shady paths, lakes, animals, playgrounds and a zoo, and all of it can be explored in one afternoon without anyone getting tired.
In Zrinjevac Park there are benches for a break. The Museum of Lost Tales tells stories that interest children, and the Lotrščak Tower is a short climb with a view. The cathedral and the Stone Gate are in the old town, where distances are short and parents keep an overview. Six places to stay are available, so look for a family room for four people.
The flight takes about 1.5 hours, and Swiss travellers do not need a visa. If you want to add some coast, Split or Dubrovnik are destinations for a second stop. You can discuss timing and pace in the video call.
