We decided for a three day activity: Cycling, hiking and kayaking. Trips were really nice, because we visited the corners of Slovenia that we could't find ourselves. Cycling and hiking were not very hard, it was a pleasure for all day. We tried best local food and wine. The kayaking lessons was very wet. Unforgettable experience. We recommend.

Loved it! Velenje Underground is quite an unusual experience. Having a fancy dinner 160 m below surface, combined with some artistic performance / music is really something »out of the box«. The idea behind this project was to elevate tourism in Velenje to a higher level, namely to create a memorable, 5 star experience for turists. This goes hand in hand with the vision of the tourist destination Slovenia… Slovenia as a green boutique global destination for high-end visitors seeking diverse and active experiences, peace, and personal benefits. A destination of five-star experiences.
3. Ljubljana private walking tour with a local
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 6 reviews
This tour is definitely different for many reasons: - it is run by locals and locals only. We are not only licensed tour guides but have also lived in Ljubljana for decades and know the city like our own pocket. - most of the guides have high formal education, and are glad to explain more also about economy, art, politics, contemporary social issues and how people of Slovenia live today. - the tour is a private tour. Which means we dedicate our time and knowledge to you and to you only. It also means you do not have to share the attention and squeeze with 30 other tourists, which often happens at "free" or other non-private tours. - we are aware of negative impacts of tourism on local environment. We will always present you locally made products and not products of multinational companies and will introduce you to sustainable tourism practices in Ljubljana. - the tour can be customized. - we will not bore you with numbers and years of every laid brick. The tour is also fun :).

Great and informative tour with interesting insights about the history and culture of Ljubljana and - of course- various types of craft beers. For us, the private tour with Peter was a great combination of sightseeing and fun. Peter was a great guide who shared many interesting information with us and answered all our questions about Slovenia, its capital and the art of making craft beer. Highly recommend this tour, esp. to people who are visiting the city for the first time or want to learn more about craft beers.

Well, to be fair, Ljubljana is a bit like a magical city from a fairy tale. Explore this wonderful town with me and I will show you every magical moment and place that for me, as a local, is breathtaking even after all these years.

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!

We enjoyed the hidden secrets of Ljubljana tour with Primoz. He guided us to a number of hidden gems that we would not have noticed had we toured on our own. He is very knowledgeable about the city and was prepared with print material to better describe and explain certain aspects of the city, which was really helpful. His manner throughout our 2 hour tour was pleasant, considerate and full of fun and interesting facts. The time just flew. Especially appreciated, was the spectacular sunset that he orchestrated for our pleasure at the end of the tour on Butcher's Bridge ( with all the lover's locks ). Great way to end a very nice tour!! Thank you!!

The full day was great in whole. The caves are beautiful-definitely a sight you should see. There were a lot of students on trips but it's fine because you get put into a group with your own language guide. Horses are breathtaking and the history is interesting I wish we went on a day where the horses were "working" meaning you could ride them. We went on a Monday so that is the resting day for the Lipica horses-they train and trot all other days. Despite that, we had a lovely tour of the farm and interacted with the horses in their stables and learned about these unique majestic creatures. Pick up and drop off was right on time - car was comfortable and our guide found a good place for us to have lunch before taking us back into Trieste

I contacted Katja after seeing her trips and asked if there was a full day trip that we could do together that took me to all of the sights I wanted to see. Katja arranged an itinerary that took me everywhere I wanted to photograph and took the hassle out of navigating the roads and national parks. The weather wasn’t the greatest, in fact it had rained every day for a month when I had arrived. But Katja and her lovely Australian Shepherd whose name I can pronounce but absolutely cannot spell picked me up early in the morning and off we went. It was in fact raining but Katja amended the itinerary to get the best out of the weather that we had and we managed to get the most out of the day. She took me through some wonderful waterfalls, soca river, national parks etc etc. she was very accommodating and took more time if I needed it but essentially let me set the pace. For me it was one of the best things I did in the month I spent in the Balkans and I really enjoyed my time with Katja because she was so friendly and had many wonderful stories. She had a broad knowledge base for photography and for those who might just want a day trip of the area to see a lot of the sights she is a wonderful person to show you around. I also would like to mention that with the weather being so bad I wanted to see Vintar Gorge and I couldn’t get there after it rained. Katja the next day actually picked me up and dropped me off in both directions just to help me out - that’s how wonderfully kind she is. I am so thankful for such a great day in wonderful company soaking up excellent vie ws

Grab a chance to runaway from all the noise and spend a night in the mountain hut off-the-grid. Join us on this unique adventure! Mountain Pasture Zajamniki is one of the most beautiful meadows in the mountains with stunning views of the Julian Alps and Mt. Triglav - the highest peak. Decades ago this hut was home for shepherds and his animals. Until this day, the Triglav National Park preserved the authenticity of this place. The houses are now renovated - comfortably, but simple. There is no electricity (except for the lights) and no running water (we bring drinking water with us). But you know what - there are comfy beds, fireplace, candlelights and a million of stars! Perfect combination for any nature lovers and photographers at any age.
