Dear traveler! I love to connect with people and I am totally in love with our little sLOVEnia! ;) I live in Ljubljana, a small, lovely capital, where I finished my studies. I love foreign languages, history and nature and traveling has always been my greatest passion. My 28-year-long career as a local guide and trip leader has brought me into contact with travellers from all over the world, in several foreign languages. Besides that, in the past I lead Slovenian guests to different overseas countries. Slovenia is a small 'green patch' of Europe. It's the only country whose name contains the word 'love'. At your visit, you will see why. It's a small country of big beauty and full of small discoveries. Check out our national anthem, called 'Zdravljica' - 'The Toast' http://www. preseren. net/ang/3_poezije/13_zdravljica. asp) Traveling opens horizons, strenghtens torelance and makes people happier. That's what happens to me, when I travel myself. Therefore, when I guide, the hapiness of my guests is my primary goal. I've got a lot of experience in driving/guiding by car/van and safety is very important for me. I'm professional, knowledgeable, open, fun. . . and my guests often comment: 'your enthusiasm is contagious'. . . ;) I'll be very happy to help you in advance with your holiday planning , so your Slovenian experience will be trully unforgettable. "Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry, but by demonstrating that all peoples cry, laugh, eat, worry, and die, it can introduce the idea that if we try and understand each other, we may even become friends.

Ljubljana is my love. It is so pretty that I cannot get tired of strolling or guiding it. And I am inviting you to join me and enjoy it with me ;) Ljubljana is often called a European jewel or a small blend of Prague and Amsterdam. It's a 'town with a soul', as visitors often comment. The vibrant old town is concentrated along the Ljubljanica river and the Castle on a hill still looks like it's protecting the romantic city below. We are going to stroll along medieval streets, admire an interesting blend of different architectural styles, 'see' and 'be seen on several famous promenades along the river, discover some of its hidden monuments, enjoy in the town's greenery and learn about stories and fairy tales which connect present and past.
I highly recommend Barbara. She is very knowledgeable on Ljubljana’s history: important events, people, and timeline. We walked this small city and were able to retrace its history from bridges, buildings, Roman ruins, bronze doors, and statues. She is a world traveler herself and an experienced guide. Fabulous experience!
In unserer zweistündigen Tour durch Ljubljana mit Barbara haben wir viel interessante Details zur Geschichte der Stadt und der Architektur vieler Häuser und Plätze erfahren. Die Zeit ist wie im Flug vergangen. Barbaras Ausführungen waren spannend und kurzweilig. Wir können Barbara aufgrund ihres umfangreichen Wissens und ihrer sehr sympathischen Art auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen.
Excellent tour!
Barbara gave us a fascinating 2-hour tour of Ljubljana. She was positive, friendly and knowledgeable, and we felt we had a much better grasp on the city and the country by the end. Pre-trip communication was also great. Highly recommend her!
We really enjoyed our walking tour with Barbara. She met us at our hotel in the old town, and we walked all from there. She had some very funny stories that really made Ljubljana come alive for us; we had many chuckles over them as we explored the city on our own and came across some of the sites for the stories. She was a delight!
Our tour with Barbara was wonderful. We recommend her highly.
We will see all major Ljubljana sights: - the main square with Prešeren monument, - Franciscan church and Three Bridges, - the Congress Square (Park of the Star), - the National University Library, - The New Square, - The Cobbler's Bridge, - The Old Square (the oldest street), - walk on the romantic river promenade, - the Municipality Square, - St. Nicholas Cathedral, - the famous Open Air Market, - Butcher's Bridge and Dragon Bridge. - We will do it on foot since Ljubljana is so nicely small. We will have lots of fun, since on every corner awaits you something new and different. . . or have a wow effect! ;) Have anything else in mind? Let me know and I will customise the tour.
Tell your guide which places matter to you, skip what doesn't, and tailor the experience for your group's needs. Not finding what you want? Message your guide to build something unique.
We will get around on foot. The old town is a pedestrian zone.
