This is an exclusive, one of a kind wine tour just for you and your family/friend. There must be a minimum of two people for the tour. We cannot afford to take a single person on the tour because of the costs associated with driving you to Maribor and back, paying the wine makers for the wines etc. Sitting in vineyards, visiting cellars, sipping wine and enjoying nature is what you can expect from this tour. I will not lecture you about the wine, I will let you experience it. Touch it, smell it, drink it, learn about it and most importantly ENJOY it. We will pick you up at your hotel, airbnb, or a camping ground. We will then drive to Maribor about hour and a half visit the the wine region of Maribor. This is one of a kind experience where, you get to see true wine cellars. We promise you will have a true wine experience and truly be a part of the experience of wine. We will drink about 6 or more wines. Afterwards we will drive you back to where we picked you up.

Inclusions: NOTE: Our tour includes up to a maximum of 7 wines for free. If you would like to taste any more wine then the price is about 2-3 euros per glass of wine., Private transportation

Loved it! Velenje Underground is quite an unusual experience. Having a fancy dinner 160 m below surface, combined with some artistic performance / music is really something »out of the box«. The idea behind this project was to elevate tourism in Velenje to a higher level, namely to create a memorable, 5 star experience for turists. This goes hand in hand with the vision of the tourist destination Slovenia… Slovenia as a green boutique global destination for high-end visitors seeking diverse and active experiences, peace, and personal benefits. A destination of five-star experiences.

7. Day Trip from Zagreb to Maribor

Sit`N`Trip

On the banks of the river Drava lies the second largest city in Slovenia, surrounded by Pohorje mountain on one side and vineyards on the other. Cultural importance and value of Maribor are evidenced by the fact that in 2012 the city was awarded the title of the European Capital of Culture. The Lent, which is also the oldest part of the city, best describes its rich cultural heritage. This is also the site of production of the oldest wine in the world, with an old tradition of over 450 years. Nothing less important is the rest of Maribor, which, apart from the Maribor Castle, boasts numerous spacious squares, monuments, Maribor Cathedral, bridges and much more. For those adventurous spirits, there is the mount-park called Pyramid, as well as one of the largest and most popular ski destinations, Mariborsko Pohorje.
