Private Istria Day trip from Zagreb

Let us take you to the gems of Istra, little-hidden places Hum, Pazin, Motovun, and Zavrsje.
Pazin is home of the mediaeval fortress known as Kastel which due to its position inspired Jules Vern to set part of his novel 'Mathias Sandorf' in this area. In honour of him, local hold a festival 'Days of Jules Vern'. But this wonderful town also holds other sights to see such as the church of St. Nicolas, Franciscan Church of Visitation.
The most famous Istrian mediaeval city is of course Motovun. The well known Motovun film festival takes place there every year, but the popularity of this place is also due to its architecture. From the church of St. Stephen with a separate bell tower, serrated battlements, gates, and walls to the enchanting streets and squares make this place magical to wander around. We should not forget to mention the amazing offer of food and wine especially truffles specialities that are taken from nearby Motovun forest. Definitely don’t forget to ask about the legend of Veli Joze, benign giant that lived in the vicinity of the town.
And finally the last but still significant little place called Zavrsje. This town was surrounded by walls and had two entrances. Today the city core of Zavrsje it is protected urban unit entered in the Register of Croatian cultural monuments. Among preserved buildings, three churches, castle and south entrance gates stand out.
