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.

We were 6 friends on our trip to Slovenia, only one weekend and wanted to sea as much as possible during this time, so we asked the City Concierge to make us some suggestions what to do and see, to make the most out of our short stay. They suggested us to join this tour the first day, and the second day we went all together to the Slovenian seaside. We had so much fun, at the end we visited Lake Bled, Postojna cave, Predjama castle, Piran, had a coffe in Trieste, Italy then joined Istrian olive oil tasting, tried some local goodies, went for Truffule hunting and tased some really great and amazing local wines. For us this was just amazing 2 days in Slovenia, the guys from the agency made us feel so welcome everywhere we went. They really did their best to make these 2 days unforgatable for us and we were so happy that we chose them to host us during our stay… We are already planning our Balkan tour together in Spring..can't wait..

An incredible experience with TuamV on an off-road safari that started with the visit of a beautiful natural bridges in Rakov Škocijan and the Italian Alpine Wall bunker. The adventure continued on the off roads of the Karst and it was pure adrenalin. Our guide Marko is a very skilled driver. He explained how to drive a 4x4 car and we were all able to try. We had an epic time, from beginning to end. Thank you Marko for the unforgettable day, the positive energy and calmness with which you handled our attempts to drive. Highly recommend this adventure.

The day trip to the capital Ljubljana was awesome. Walking around the town center made me want to stay there for at least a few more days. The weather wasn’t that brilliant, but we saw all the main sites. The architecture, climate and landscape are so different from where I was staying on the coast. It's like visiting another country.
