A small-group coast loop from Koper to Piran, Portorož, and Izola, with old town time, sea views, and an included food and wine tasting.
“We were picked up at the dock, which was great. There were only two couples because the third couple was a no show. The ride to Piran and back was very pleasant with a very friendly and talkative guide. She gave us a nice introduction to Piran and toured us around the town, which was very cute and historical. She dropped us off at a local restaurant and we had "lunch" accompanied by three different local wines. It was really a snack, but enjoyable. We then had free time for about an hour and half. Overall a very nice day.”

“Our guide Matejia was a gem! She taught us so much about Slovenia, its history and people while we were driving to Lake Bled. We had a little over an hour at the Lake and wished we had more time. It was magnificent and we could have spent the day there. Unfortunately we didn’t have time to visit the church on the island but we did enjoy walking around and sampling Bled cake. Afterwards we drove to Ljubljana and joined a quick tour with another guide. The best part was shopping in a local market and visiting the Dragon bridge. This is a lovely excursion that allows you to sample…”

“My family and I took a cruise in May and had the opportunity to visit beautiful Slovenia. Our fantastic guide Igor started the tour by taking us to Ljubljana where he gave us a walking tour of the downtown area. On Fridays in the Spring, they have a Food Festival at lunchtime so we were able to sample some wonderful local cuisine and beers. Then it was on to the famous caves which were amazing – take a jacket because it’s a little chilly. Igor gave us great recommendations all along the way and plenty of time to explore and do a little shopping. If you are looking for a…”

“Our guide, Mihael (Mike), took us to the caves, the castle in front of the cave, and then for lunch in a local restaurant. Mike was very knowledgeable and friendly. The caves and castle were beautiful. Bring warm clothing, the caves are chilly! Definitely recommend this tour with Mike if you are going to Koper.”
