        Perfect introduction to Ljubljana
        Our guide was wonderful, genuine, and friendly. He provided the perfect blend of interesting facts on the history and culture of Ljubljana in a fun way. Our group was very social and the food and drinks were great. Only thing I would change is skipping the fried chicken as this dish is not what I would consider “traditional” and can be found in the US. The quality of all the food was great however and the soup and Carniolian sausage were a welcome warm treat after walking in the cold. This was a great way to get introduced to the city and I would definitely recommend.

        An exceptional guide
        Our guide Borut was one of the best guides in all my years of travelling - he was very knowledgeable and we learnt much from him about Slovenian history (in addition to the places of interest), friendly, patient and super passionate about what he does!

        Snowy trip to Rastroke & Plitvice Lakes
        We went from Zagreb to Rastroke & Plitvice Lakes on a very snowy December day. Our guide was Damien & he was excellent, relaxed, organised, informative about all sorts of topics & local history. Small friendly group of 5 intrepid travellers.

        Nice tour
        The Bled Lake with Island and Castle day trip from Ljubljana was absolutely amazing! The small group setting made the experience personal and enjoyable. The boat ride to the island was picturesque, and exploring the charming church was a highlight. The Bled Castle offered stunning views of the lake and surrounding mountains. Our guide was friendly and informative, making the entire trip smooth and memorable. Highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting Slovenia – it’s a must-see! 5 stars!

        A great sampler of the key locations in Slovenia
        I visited in the last week of October and the weather was wonderful. Our trip consisted of just 4 visitors as it was off peak season and our guide was a wonderful young lady by the name of Taisha (Tai). She was very prompt at the pickup location in a clearly marked tour van. At every location she explained the activity and provided clear timing and meeting locations, altogether a seamless adventure. It was perfect and I would recommend for people who want to see 3.key places in one day. Please note that these places are not always near one another so to allow for all three locations you cannot expect a lot of free time. Think of this as a sampler of the main attractions and if you want to fully explore a single location, you may have to consider going to only one location in the future for a full day. The tour does its best to allow for enough time to see these places if you are quick! The guide is working the entire day after all with the drive.

        Good trip to cover most of the attractions in Slovenia
        The trip was pleasant and we did everything on time. Well organised and enough time to see all attractions in one day. Taisha did great job and keep us all the time informed with each visited place.

        Excellent tour from Zagreb!
        We experienced the full day Lake Bled and Ljubljana, Slovenia from Zagreb. It was the best day and our tour guide was AMAZING! From 830 am to 730 pm. Perfect day and was surprised how much we liked Slovenia.

        Tuesday, September 17th day trip.
        My wife and I joined this small group day trip, that started at 8:30am. Meeting point was by the fountain in front of the Eurostars hotel in Ljubljana. Only 2 blocks from our accommodations. I believe we had 7 in our group. Primus, our tour guide and driver, picked us up from there on time, transport in a comfortable van. Primus was wonderful. A great driver, good in conversation, and very knowledgeable. A joy to visit with. And he actually gave us our own private guided tour through Postojna castle. He did a great job. The castle being the first stop, we then went on to the Postojna Cave. There he got us all situated in the correct tour line, gave us information, and off we went. The train ride back and forth in the cave was fun, and the walking tour in the cave was very cool we were in the cave system for quite a while. We then met Primus outside, and he brought us back to our pickup point. Both the castle and cave were well worth the time and money. Primus made the trip even better.

        Cave and Coast
        The cave was amazing. Well worth the effort. The coastal village of Piran was very scenic, and we had the right amount of time to explore it and enjoy a nice lunch.

        Amazing trip!
        This trip was amazing! We fit so much into the day. It was all stunning and the way our guide took us through the beautiful countryside instead of freeways was perfect.
