So we planned a stop in Trieste on our way from Venice to Split, Croatia. We knew a little. The city was the home of Chef Lydia Bastianich and many national flags flew there over the centuries. It turned to be a wonderful surprise. We found beautiful architecture, wide streets, reasonable prices, friendly people and even more complex history than we had imagined. Helping us sort through the centuries of politics, wars, occupations and developmnets was our guide Demian Sem. He was wonderful. Demien is a Slovenian (next door to Trieste) and explained how Slovenia, Venice, Italy, the Hapsburgs, Ottomans, Romans, Italian Fascists, NAZI's, WWII and others figured in the city's history. Demien punctuated his narrative with personal anecdotes and the local color you can only see with a native. He explained the more interesting architecture, buildings, their significance and their role in the city's history, economy and culture. He also has a great sense of humor and managed to entertain us on a personal level as well. We like to use local guides, especially on 1st visits. Damien not only met our expectations, he exceeded them on every criteria. If you book a local tour ask for Demian Sem. You will benefit from his extensive knowledge and interestig delivery.

Historical Centre Food Tour: Come hungry there is a lot of food! We chose the historical center of Piran because it has the most to offer in terms of culture, history and of course wonderful food. This is where most of historic houses and other sights are found, many of them well over 1300 years old, and the food is just delicious if you know where to go. And, because it's very central, we can show you more than one area, including the famous, Tartini square, ancient town's wall, St. George Cathedral and the famous Venetian House. On this 5-hour guided walking food tour we eat our way through the neighborhood enjoying 4 delicious food tastings. Visit the local, colorful outdoor food market, admire old buildings, architecture and meet the wonderful families working hard to preserve local food traditions. This tour features some unique cultural and historical sites that few tourists get an opportunity to see. Join us for a day like no other.

Inclusions: Tour Guide,, Gastronomic stops: 4,, Wine tasting: yes,, Snacks at food stops included: yes,, FREE - Town of Piran brochure (with map)

I found out that sLOVEnia has a "love" word in its name. As far as I can see, the same is true for Alfredo TOURS and for the guides who work there to make your tour something special - a lovely experience.

Škocjan caves are the largest underground cavern in Europe. Its majestic subterranean river canyon qualified it to be placed under UNESCO natural heritage protection. Walking on the 3 km (1.8 mi) path through the caves is an experience worthy of fairy-tales, fantasy and awe. The indescribable scenery will make you look over your shoulder, almost expecting a dwarf or some other magical creature to appear from the darkness. You will be able to learn about the first explorers of this incredible feature of our planet and, if you are really lucky, spot some of the creatures that have made this place their home.

Inclusions: English speaking guide, Comfortable Transportation from Ljubljana

Exclusions: Škocjan caves entrance fee, Boat tour with glass bottom, Different pickup / drop-off location in Ljubljana

The day trip to the capital Ljubljana was awesome. Walking around the town center made me want to stay there for at least a few more days. The weather wasn’t that brilliant, but we saw all the main sites. The architecture, climate and landscape are so different from where I was staying on the coast. It's like visiting another country.

The Slovenian coast is small but endearingly charming. This is the best day trip to visit the highlights of the Slovenian coast and its hinterland. Spend a day uncovering the scenic, cultural and historical delights of the Slovenian coast. Take in panoramic views of the Bay of Trieste from the clifftop Socerb Castle and see the famous Dance of Death fresco at Hrastovlje’s Church of the Holy Trinity. Then, wander the salt flats. The last part of the tour is reserved for the most picturesque coastal town Piran and historical town Koper. In Piran you can walk through its narrow medieval streets wedged between beautiful houses, churches and squares and enjoy a "gelato" or a cup of coffee on the main square named after Giuseppe Tartini.   

Inclusions: Central Ljubljana pickup and drop-off, Comfortable transport by air-conditioned minivan, Professional English speaking guide 

Exclusions: Admission fees, meals and personal expenses., Admission options:, Hrastovlje church: 3 € per person, Marezige wine fountain, Piran city wall: 2 € per person
