Meet the 3 most beautiful coastal villages of Slovenia

Trieste is special and unique. Located at the north end of the Adriatic sea and surrounded by the Karst tableland it has always been at the center of important trading routes and consequently a meeting point of different cultures, languages, religions. It was ruled by the Austrian for over 500 years but still retains its Mediterranean flair.

We will explore this beautiful city from its Roman origins on the top of the hill, passing through the medieval part to reach the "città nuova" or "borgo Teresiano" the new town whose construction started in the 18th century, when Trieste became an important seaport and emporium for the Austrian empire. Among elegant buildings, places of worship of different religious communities and stylish bars and cafes we will reach Piazza Unità d'Italia, the biggest European square facing the sea and certainly one of the most beautiful in Italy.

Trieste Half Day Walking Tour

Bled and Ljubljana (VIP Small-group day tour)

Leave Trieste or Koper for a day at Lake Bled and Ljubljana on your own private tour. Making it easy to visit Slovenia's beautiful capital and the glacial lake in just one day, the trip includes round-trip transport from your hotel or cruise port, a flexible itinerary, and of course, your own driver-guide. Ample free time at each site is included, giving you chance to take photos by the lake, visit a medieval castle, and stroll the streets of Ljubljana's beguiling historical center.

A trip to Bled, one of Slovenia's top attractions, and Ljubljana - the capital must be a part of any visit to Slovenia.

Ljubljana is often called an 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.

Postojna cave and Predjama castle half day tour

Visit Slovenia attraction number one in a half a day. There is always good weather to go into a cave. . . a Queen of caves in this case. Not the biggest in the world and frankly, not even in this small country of 2 million people, anymore. Still, it's the most visited with over 39 million visitors over 200 years in business.

 A nearby legendary cave castle with a treasure is a bonus. Although I've seen travellers that preferred the castle actually. I'd just say it is like a cherry on the cake and yes there will be cherries in the story I will tell you along the way.

 Additional sightseeing stops can be agreed upon by your request. I'll be happy to prolong the tour to Trieste Italy if only for a cappuccino by the sea. You didn't know Trieste is called a coffee town (la città del caffè)? But that is the start of another story already . . .

Amazing Rijeka &amp; Opatija Full Day Private Shore Excursion

Ljubljana is my home town. In the past, Slovenia was a part of Yugoslavia and Ljubljana was just a provincial city. Since our independence in 1991, the city became the capital of independent country and woke up as a sleeping beauty. Would you like to know, how I saw the city in my youth in 70-tied and 80-ies and how do I like the changes after 90-ties?

During the tour we will get familiar with major sights like: Prešern's Square, Market, Dragon's Bridge, Cathedral of St Nicholas, Cobblers bridge, New town, Congress Square, Republic Square, Opera house. This will be also the time, when you will get a lot of insiders suggestions for your time on your own.

Meeting point at your hotel/accommodation

Suitable for everyone who doesn't have a lot of time for the city or those ones who would like to discover our city on their own, but for a start would like to get familiar with a city by local.

Ljubljana Sigthseeing express Private Tour

I was 11 years old on June of 1991, when an announcement in front of Parliament was made: "This evening dreams are allowed, tomorrow is a new day".
One country ceased to exist, as we knew it until then and a new country was born. I was more or less unaware of the situation, but I can remember worried faces of my family, especially the one of my grandmother.
After 10 day war, my hometown became capital of newly formed state Slovenia and in those 30 years, it has transformed from political, cultural, economical and educational centre of Slovenes, also into popular tourist destination.
I will introduce you my town through eyes of a local and we will together discover different architectural styles like Art Nouveau, Baroque and Classical style with "modern" influence in "new" town with Yugoslav socialist realistic architecture built in Yugoslav times.
On the walk you will also experience and feel "local beat" from bars&amp;restaurants where locals enjoy their free time with a cup of coffee or beer.

Experience Ljubljana - three hour private tour

Dear guest,
Before giving few details about the tour, let me first introduce myself. I studied Latin and English languages and I hold a MA in Education from the OU in the UK. I am also a certified local guide and very passionate about my home country, its history, art and also about our current affairs.

I would be delighted to take you around our capital city, tell you how Slovenians lived by the river and on the river in the past and how they live today, and give you some tips on what to do and see during the rest of your stay in Ljubljana or Slovenia. There will also be time to unwind with a sip of our traditional honey liqueur, to taste milk from the milk vending machine and sample quality local produce at the market.

Perhaps you'd rather include a visit to some small but very unique shops? - No problem, just let me know, I am your local expert. I prefer customised tours, so we can change the itinerary so as to meet your wishes.
