YUGO AND A HAUNTED HOSPITAL
This tour is a combination of our “Yugo and the City” tour with a drive up Medvednica mountain to its highest peak, Sljeme.

Minutes after admiring the National theater and the roof of St.Mark’s church, we’ll start the drive up the 1031 meters (3.382 feet) high mountain, which is also a protected nature park. At one point, we’ll turn off the road to explore the hidden deserted hospital Brestovac, once specialized in tuberculosis and lung diseases.

On the way back, we’ll enjoy some relaxing time with a cup of coffee or tea at one of the charming mountain lodges.
Duration of this tour is approx. 4 hrs., one strong Yugo can drive up the mountain with max. 3 guests!

YUGO, WATERFALLS & MINEFIELDS
After only a 2 hours’ drive from Zagreb, we’ll take you to a magical place called Plitvice Lakes National Park. A park known for its turquoise water, countless waterfalls, trouts fighting the streams and travel bloggers fighting with their selfie sticks. After the visit to the park (Upper Lakes section) we’re taking you to a completely different world. The world of airport runways overgrown with weeds, the world of blown-up tunnels and minefields in demining process; the world where the only thing that lurks from the bushes are the ghosts of times past and an old Dakota airplane. The place is known as Željava, the deserted Yugoslav airbase.
This is the ultimate adventure, are you ready for it? Our Yugo’s are already in the first gear!
