Our group (7) thoroughly enjoyed our private well organized first time tour of Slovenia. Too many nice things to say about our guide. She provided a wealth of knowledge about the country, the wines, history and culture. Visiting with some of her personal friends running family vineyards was truly very special. All the advanced planning allowed us to stay at some particularly picturesque and hospitable small lodges and family run places. Float trip inside the caves, hikes in the mountains, nature walks, power assisted biking up and down a mountain, all helped to compliment our frequent stops at special wineries and restaurants. The country was the cleanest we saw and the people the friendliest in our 7 country European vacation. We highly recommend our guide and her coordinated planning of our tour. We will always have wonderful memories of this visit and the friends we made.

I spent the day travelling around with my guide Michelle, and she made the whole experience something I will never forget. She took me to see many different sites from Lake Bohinj to Waterfall Savica to Lake Bled. However the main stops on the way were not all there was to see, it was as much about the journey as it was the destinations. Slovenia has some incredible sites to behold and the scenary all throughout the day left me blown away. Driving through the deepest vallies and up the tallest mountains, it was a real adventure the whole way. Due to the time of year and current events, we basically had every spot to ourselves without the hussle and bussle of noisy tourist spots and the benefit of this was how peaceful everything was. Michelle is an incredibly friendly and kind person, full of knowledge and experience of Slovenia that she shares with you in an enthusastic and engaging way, she is perfect company for the trip. This is an amazing day out which I highly reccomend to anyone visiting Slovenia. I will absolutely be coming back to stay at Lake Bohinj next year for a relaxing camping holiday. Thank you Michelle for touring me around Slovenia during my stay here. It has been one of the best ( or even, the best ) experience I have had travelling over the past few years.

A wonderful experience! The presentation was very interesting and amusing. I learned a lot, not only about Slovenian vines, but also about their traditions and history. They really know what they’re doing. And of course the vines were amazing. I definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Ljubljana.

Ljubljana's culinary offerings have always been diverse as Slovenia lies at the crossroads of different regions, cultures, and culinary traditions. Some of the typical Ljubljana dishes have their roots far back in the city's history; some are the result of modern-day culinary creativity. Do you know that in Central Market you can taste typical local dishes? Are you willing to visit five different styles of restaurants and taste five different dishes and five different drinks? Is it true that Krakovo is an area of gardens traditionally occupied by the local vegetable growers? Your local guide will show you the historical city center's locations where food trading and culinary-related activities used to take place in the past and take you to the top of Nebotičnik, once the tallest building in Central Europe and today one of the city's most prominent icons. Are you ready to learn about Ljubljana and its dynamic history and vibrant modern life from tasting its most favorite foods?
