I welcome you in Slovenia, in its capital Ljubljana and the Green Embrace of Central Slovenia! Slovenia, the region Central Slovenia and the capital Ljubljana are proud of their many beauties, which, sadly enough, visitors who are coming to Europe tend to overlook much too quickly. Thus, I invite you not to make the same mistake and to join me on our explorations: on foot, with your car, by bike, or mine by boat-just name it! Make sure to charge the batteries of your cameras and other "picture-taking" devices and together we will discover and enjoy our hidden jewels. As a local, I am going to make your stay here special and memorable!

We had a very nice tour with Mateja. She is a very knowledgeable guide and was able to tell us a lot of history not just of the old town in Ljubljana, but also of the history of Slovenia as a whole. She also gave us tips on other things to do once our tour was over. We really enjoyed our time with her!

Mateja was fabulous. The group leaders, one of which is a guide in Rome said she had a great deal of knowledge and she related very well to the group. The group was 36 people and she handled it just as if it were four people. I would highly recommend her for any group going to Ljubljana or Lake Bled. On a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being the highest, I would give her a...
