There's a part of me that hesitate to write this review because I want to keep Slovenia 4 Seasons as a secret to myself. This is the best tour operator that I have ever engaged in the past decade. Andrej had been very patient in email exchange from July until October, revising, and requoting the itinerary couple of times.
As someone with Tourism background, I have to give my guide Stefan a very high marks because he excel in every aspect as a guide and even more with his attention to small details. Several days with Stefan going around Slovenia, Trieste, and Salzburg was one of the best European trip I have ever experienced.
Of all the European countries I have visited, Slovenia is definitely the most beautiful, organic, and peaceful. Slovenians are very very nice people as well whether in cities, villages, Apls, or sea side. And I have never experience a single bad food in Slovenia, even supermarket popcorn was good.
Once I experienced Slovenia with Stefan, it's difficult for me to enjoy other European countries because the benchmark is really high.
My suggestion is to visit Slovenia after you have visited all the European countries then close it with Slovenia and engage Slovenia 4 Seasons as your tour operator.

We booked a bear watching tour with Slovenia 4 Seasons and that was a fantastic choice. The mailcontact with Andrej was very good and he answered a lot of questions coming from me. On the day itself Stefan picked us up from our hostel in Postojna and he explained a lot about the bears and Slovenia itself. He was very friendly and brought us towards a farm, where we came in touch with a family which gave us some great berry juice and we talked there and walked around a bit.
After a short time our guide Roman into the woods entered. He does not speak English, but he was very sweet. With Roman we went towards the forest into the hide. There it was really warm (because of the high temperature that day) but then we started waiting. After an hour there was nothing but some cool birds. After one and a half hours from below us a bear entered and was present for about a minute and she went back into the forest, but minutes later the same bear came again and was with us for a couple of minutes. It was so special finding a brown bear in the wild. A bit after the bear left a fox came out and half an hour later another fox showed itself for a short period. After about 2 and a half hours (from the beginning and almost before the end) the biggest bear of the area came out from across. He was also there for a couple of minutes. It was very special again. After that we went back towards the farm doing a small hike towards the car of 3 minutes or so (also on the way there).
At the farm we got the explanations about what we saw from Stefan (who translated Roman) and after that we went back towards Postojna having experienced my highlight (I am a biologist) of the month trip inthe Balkan. My girlfriend was also exptremely impressed. Seeing a bear was absolutely special, fantastic and mesmerizing. The bears were being fed a bit to keep them outside the towns. The tour is pricy, but it is all worth it. Besides a part of the money goed to conservation. This was so fantastic! If you have the time in Postojna or Ljubljana, go for bear watching!

My husband and I visited Slovenia and Croatia with friends and spent an amazing day with Stefan after having corresponded with Andrej to modify our itinerary slightly. We had a great morning in Piran Slovenia and had lunch by the ocean. We then visited Grožnjan Croatia, and although many artists had not opened for the season, Stefan made sure we met the artists who were open and we learned about truffle hunting, brandy making and other artisan products. We also met an artist and toured his gallery while he told us about upcoming exhibit in Belgium he was preparing for. We were then taking to Kabola Winery, family run for over a century. We sat on the deck in the warm Istrian sun and sampled (and bought!) several wines. We wrapped up the day with a visit to the Butori Waterfall since we didn't get to Plitvice Lakes on this trip. I can't say enough about the service, attention to detail, the beauty of the area, or the overall experience. I highly recommend Slovenia4Seasons!

Lovely Travel agency. Andrej , the owner and CEO took personal interest and drove us
to all the important sightseeing and historic places in Slovenia , right from the caves to the Alps mountains to the beautiful lakes and rivers and nature spots. Very friendly and informative Guide. We would recommend him to everyone who wants to have a personalized sightseeing tour of Slovenia without having the stress of organizing one. Thank you Andrej once again for being such a wonderful Guide , host and companion. Best wishes - Uday & Sindhu from London.

Had private tour of 3 countries in 1 day, starting in Ljubljana and going to Italy, Piran, and Croatia. Wonderful experience! Each city was unique with stunning views. Andrej was our guide and he was wonderful about giving us plenty of personal time to explore and pointed out things that WE were interested in (after talking about our interests). Helped us find places to eat and had excellent suggestions for future places to go. Nice to be picked up and dropped off from our hotel. He was very friendly and accomodating and I will definitely recommend him to all my friends.

My wife and I did two days of touring with Jernej starting first with the caves Postojnska then proceeded to Bled and finally Ljubljana. We learned a lot about the history of the towns and the country. The stories from Slovenia contributed to earlier tours in Split and Dubrovnik giving us a greater understanding of the history of the region.
His knowledge of backroads not only allowed us to avoid traffic jams on the highways but provided interesting stories on the daily lives of people in the countryside. He knows all the good restaurants finding us the perfect local experience for lunch in Bled and dinner in Ljubljana. He even knew where to get the perfect gifts for our children.
The second day we took his tour to Rovinj and countryside towns of Motovun and Groznjan where he had many connections to local merchants and knew all the hidden spots of the town.
Two perfect days we will never forget and would recommend Jernej for any tour in the area.

Slovenia 4 Seasons was recommended to us by our Hotel - Urban Hotel Design in Trieste. We booked their Slovenia in One Day tour to Postojna Caves, Lake Bled and Ljubljana. As we were 6 people we had our own driver Igor, who was also our tour leader. This was an amazing tour, and we truly lucked in with Igor as he gave us so much information on each place we visited. We were very well taken care of. Our walking tour around Ljubljana was fantastic and at no point did Igor rush us through our trip, but allowed us time to just enjoy the beauty around us. The only thing I would recommend is to have a microphone in the van as Igor could not always be heard by those sitting in the very back. Really well done, and we cannot recommend Igor highly enough.

My wife and I had pre-arranged a tour to Skocjan cave and Piran before our arrival in Ljubljana. At the last minute, we were notified the tour was cancelled (we found out when we returned from dinner around 9:00 pm the day before the tour). Fortunately, our hotel had given us a brochure for Slovenia 4 Seasons Tours when we checked-in and we went to the website and booked a Slovenian Coast tour for the next day. We were not expecting much given the late hour, but at 6:00 am the next morning, we received a text from Andrej that he would pick us up at 9:00 am! That is amazing customer service and it only got better!
Andrej was a wonderful guide. We were expecting a 5 hour trip to Piran, but Andrej suggested we start in Trieste and then make our way down the Slovenian coast to Piran without worrying about the time. We spent about an hour in Trieste, then went south to Koper to see the Venetian buildings in the main square. After a brief side trip to see the Church of the Apparition of Mary, we arrived in Piran to complete the day. The sights and scenery along the Slovenian coast were, of course, fantastic. However, what made the day special was the amazing conversations with Andrej about the history and the people of this area. We learned so much and Andrej was an outstanding teacher.
To complete the day, Andrej even suggested and booked dinner for us in Ljuljana and arranged a walking tour of Vienna with a colleague when we arrived there a few days later. (Peter, our guide in Vienna, was also fantastic and provided a great cultural tour, not just pointing out sites). We can't say enough great things about Andrej, Peter and Slovenia 4 Seasons. You will not regret booking them for a tour.

My wife, daughter and I enjoyed the Three Countries in One Day tour with Stefan. He was an incredibly insightful and accommodating tour guide who made our entire day a tremendous experience. We loved the little artists town in Croatia, exploring Piran, and visiting Trieste. We highly recommend this tour, especially if you have Stefan as your tour guide.

We did 3 countries in a day and added Ljubljana travelling from Opatija. Stefan was our guide and we had a fantastic time. We are an English family of 5 with teens and my mother in her 80s and Stefan thoughtfully adapted our tour to everyone’s needs and interests. Ljubljana is such a beautiful city and we’re so glad we added a visit. Stefan’s knowledge, language skill and driving are equally impressive and we would thoroughly recommend this trip and the agency if you get the chance. 100% a great day!

Are the seats in the van comfortable?
How is the view from the middle seat?
Written August 23, 2017
Van was very comfortable, but view from middle seat not so great. You are also seated quite high up, so if you are a taller person, even sitting next to the window means having to slump a bit in seat or crank your neck a little. But otherwise very good. Cheers
