About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- karol4520 contributionsThis tour is beyond excellent!My guide was Alenka. She met me at the hotel from there we went to the start of the hike. My recommendation is wear good shoes - no flip flops. Most of the time you are in the shade. There are some steep parts but take your time. Alenka even had hiking poles for me. The poles were great for the way done. Once you get to the top the view is outstanding. Lunch is provided at the top. Highly recommend!Written June 26, 2019
- Challenger0070 contributionsWonder WomanAlenka is Wonder Woman of Ljubljana. Fantastic Guide, super knowledgeable, enjoyable to be around and versatile with her Tours. Anything you care to know or want to explore more, she goes with it. Our Day Tour was no cookie cutter experience and it's obvious Alenka knows how to read her Clients in order to provide them a very personalized experience. We circumnavigated Old Town Ljubljana exploring the many little details that make it such an interesting place. It was great having some better understanding of the history, traditions, daily life and current events. Fantastic way to spend an afternoon. Our visit to Ljubljana and time with Alenka further affirmed our love for beautiful Slovenia.Written May 5, 2017
- Filip D0 contributionsBest guides in Ljubljana!Alenka and MetKa are amazing and passionate guides that will show you the real pulse of this charming city. They filter only the interesting titbits about Ljubljana and focus on the hidden gems of this city. They are knowledgable with a good sense of humor, if you ask me this is a perfect combination for an excellent guide and memorable walking tour of the city. Do not hesitate and book one of their tours and embrace the true stories that will remain in your memory. I highly recommend Ljubljana guides. Thanks for the experience!Written September 9, 2016
- Todd C0 contributionsFabulous Music Tour led by AlenkaLjubljana is a charming town with a surprisingly rich musical history. This guided walk, accompanied by a solo violin takes you away from some of the noisier parts of town and opens a different side of the Slovenian capital. Our guide, Alenka was knowledgeable and flexible enough to accommodate our group for a daytime tour when a rainy Sunday night prompted us to reschedule. She included a special stop for lunch and our violinist gave us a long farewell that drew the attention of several passers by. It was a lovely way to pass a few hours in a lovely town.Written August 28, 2016
- MeganJenn0 contributionsExcellent guide, beautiful cityEven before our tour, our guide Alenka was very responsive to my many emails with many questions. She offered to book us a taxi from the airport, explaining how it would cost a lot more to hail a cab at the airport. She also was quick to recommend a number of restaurants for our lunch before the tour and our remaining time in Ljubljana. She was very accomodating and flexible, and very knowledgeable about the city, sharing many facts and tidbits that we would not have gotten had we just walked around ourselves. A private tour is the best way to get the most out of a short stay and I highly recommend one with Alenka!Written November 29, 2015
- Jann19530 contributionsA guide and a violin equals magic in LjubljanaI loved this musical walking tour! It was pretty much a repeat of the tour I had with my group, but having a private guide and a private violinist was a treat. I had no idea how to even tip such a magnificent evening. The owner joined us in a great restaurant where the music continued, and the four of us ate and talked so much, we almost forgot to move on to the wine tasting. It felt like old friends at the end, and we parted with hugs. I was happy to help support the musical heritage of Ljubljana. It was a magical evening I will never forget! Thank you!!! xxxxWritten November 22, 2015
- Miha P0 contributionsYou need perfect day and perfect guideTourist information office offers guided tours in dozen of languages. Some guides are native speakers of Japanese, German, French, others are better in history or geography. Find a short walk for two hour or something special (bike, Plečnik’s walk or Archeology of Emona). You will see much more with a guide than alone, reading just some very short information from the guide book. Best guiding is with small groups when you can walk or stop and guides from Ljubljana can explain anything, not just the official information about history-art-souvenirs. I just miss special guides for people from different regions of Slovenija and their dialects (Štajerska, Prekmurje, Primorska).Written October 18, 2015
- Mateja J0 contributionsLjubljana Guides are the best!At some point I realized, that I don’t know lot of things about my hometown. I watch all that beautiful architecture and statues every day, but what do I really know about them? So that was why I decided to go for organized trip around Ljubljana with Ljubljana Guides. The tour that we take was very well organized. Alenka & Tomaž (guides) are very clever, funny, educated and vigorous guides. They told us many interesting things about city in a very interesting way and gave us a lot of important fact about town history and architecture. They show us a lot of hard-to-find architectural details. Now every time I cross Galeria Emporium, I saw the face of the first owner of that building, for which I didn’t know that exist there. Stories behind all the pretty buildings are fascinating and it really helps me to see the city in completely different way. The tour was really very interesting and educational even for us who live or work in Ljubljana. And the violinist who was walking with the group made that special atmosphere. While he was playing I could rethink all the information and make my own picture of historical Ljubljana in my head. I enjoyed that violin sound and the peace that came in the group with that sound. I enjoyed that tour very much and I highly recommend it to everyone.Written October 11, 2015
- Lili_dpu0 contributionsFascinating way to see LjubljanaHaving lived overseas for a good decade this tour around the most beautiful city (in my world), was fantastic!!! The tour was so well organized that even my kids (almost 3 and 5) had a wonderful time. The magic boat ride was the best. Three cheers to the Ljubljana Guides, keep up the great work, we will definitely see you next summer:)Written September 22, 2015
- z d0 contributionsLjubljana and a violin - the perfect combinationAmazing tour around the capital city - we've seen all the treasures of Ljubljana introduced in a very interesting way. Guides gave all the important facts and the violinist who was walking with the group made the amazing atmosphere. I've attended walking tours before all over Europe but this one was really special. I recommend it to everyone who visit Ljubljana.Written September 18, 2015
- Ico230 contributionsLjubljana tour with violinMy wife and I attended the tour organized by Ljubljana Guides. It was very interseting and educational even for us who live in Ljubljana. We saw a lot of unknown places and architectual jewels we didn't know about until then. Tomaž (guide) told us many interesting things about town history and architecture. The violine player was also outstandnig. I highly recomend this tour to everyone.Written September 11, 2015
- nessiemonster20150 contributionsFun way to see a beautiful city!I've seen a lot of tour guides in my time and I have to say these were one of the best! Guides are very clever, educated and knowledgeable; they really know what they're talking about. Stories behind all the pretty buildings are fascinating and it really helps you to see the city in a completely different light. Even my boyfriend who is not such a history enthusiast as I am enjoyed it :) Highly recommended!Written September 6, 2015
- Brigitta250 contributionsGreat tour with musicWe are family of 4 and we decided to take a tour with music walk and with Ljubljana Castle. We had such a great time and fun. The tour guide was fantastic! She showed us many hidden places of Ljubljana, explained the history of the city in an interesting manner so that even children (6 and 7 years) enjoyed it. Awesome experience and good value of money. Highly recommended!!Written September 6, 2015
- Gregor K0 contributionsWonderful tour of a beautiful cityVery interesting tour with knowledgeable and professional guides, who also took us to places off the beaten path, including many exquisite, hard-to-find architectural and cultural pearls. It is amazing how this small city can have such a rich history and so many beautiful locations. The food is great in Ljubljana, the natives are very friendly. I'll happily go there again.Written September 4, 2015
- ezavrl0 contributionsFun and high quality!!!!!We are a group of 4 people age 25 - 40. We decided to visit Prague, Vienna and Ljubljana. The last mentioned is a warm beautiful city, with unique atmosphere and incredibly rich history. As the city is smaller from those 2, I didn't know much about it before. With help of this agency I got an awesome experience and sturdy image of a city. I couldn't recommend them more, as they are funny, proud, educated and vigorous! After the tour we even went together to enjoy some delicious home made Slovene craft beer at Ljubljanica´s river side. Thanks guys for an amazing afternoon!!Written September 4, 2015

We thoroughly enjoyed our walking tour with Milos. He is an excellent guide who certainly knows his city well. We wandered all over Ljubljana and heard all the history of this beautiful city, including some good tips for nice restaurants to try while we are here.
Our tour ended after the funicular ride up to the castle and the tour around the castle. This really is a good tour and we are so glad we did did. I highly recommend it.

I like learning the history of the city and why things were built like they are. Our guide had all this knowledge about the city and castle. Even though we had rough weather that diminished the views, I really enjoyed the tour!

What a charming city! It is well worth a visit. Clean, safe, and very walkable with the castle, Dragon’s gate, market to visit. Plenty of sidewalk cafes along the river to sit and enjoy. The Grand Union hotel is centrally located.

Our guide, Meta, was knowledgeable and delightful. We spent 4 hours with her, including a fun boat ride in the river in late afternoon. Meta was so eager to answer all our questions and cater to our special interests. We would recommend her without hesitation
