Guided tour of Maribor for groups is a walk through the city center in the company of a local tourist guide. Instead of merely listing attractions, it highlights stories about the city, its residents, and daily life through the centuries. The content and highlights of the tour are tailored to the interests of the group, ranging from history and architecture to culture and urban legends.
Among the recognizable points of the old town are Main Square with the town hall and the plague column, Castle Square with Maribor Castle, and Jewish Square with the synagogue. Behind the facades, squares, and narrow streets lie the stories of medieval Maribor, which the guide connects to the development of today's city.
A special part of Maribor's identity is represented by Lent by the Drava, where the Oldest vine in the world grows, listed in the Guinness World Records. Along the river, the Water and Court Towers, as well as remnants of the former city walls, are preserved. The tour can showcase different facets of Maribor, from Slomšek Square with the cathedral to the vibrant city streets. The connection of well-known places with less noticeable details is the essence of guiding, which is not tied to a single predetermined story.
