So we planned a stop in Trieste on our way from Venice to Split, Croatia. We knew a little. The city was the home of Chef Lydia Bastianich and many national flags flew there over the centuries. It turned to be a wonderful surprise. We found beautiful architecture, wide streets, reasonable prices, friendly people and even more complex history than we had imagined. Helping us sort through the centuries of politics, wars, occupations and developmnets was our guide Demian Sem. He was wonderful. Demien is a Slovenian (next door to Trieste) and explained how Slovenia, Venice, Italy, the Hapsburgs, Ottomans, Romans, Italian Fascists, NAZI's, WWII and others figured in the city's history. Demien punctuated his narrative with personal anecdotes and the local color you can only see with a native. He explained the more interesting architecture, buildings, their significance and their role in the city's history, economy and culture. He also has a great sense of humor and managed to entertain us on a personal level as well. We like to use local guides, especially on 1st visits. Damien not only met our expectations, he exceeded them on every criteria. If you book a local tour ask for Demian Sem. You will benefit from his extensive knowledge and interestig delivery.

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

We had an excellent tour with Marina as our guide for the Piran & Istrian Flavors tour. Istranka was easy to work with booking our tour and responded promptly. We were picked up at the port and driven to Piran for a short walking tour of this scenic village with 15th c Venetian Gothic architecture with some free time on our own. We then drove thru the countryside to a small family owned winery for a tour and tastings. Lastly, we drove to Marina's horse farm for a short tour and then a fantastic lunch she had prepared for us that included appetizer, soup and salad, homemade bread, gnocci with wild boar and panna cotta with figs in wine sauce or strawberries. My mouth waters thinking of it. I had set up the tour on CruiseCritic for 6 and the others indicated this tour really had a WOW factor and they felt fortunate to be on this small tour. ONE of the VERY BEST TOURS we have ever taken is how I would describe our tour with Marina.
