Ljubljana is often called a European jewel or described as a small blend of Prague and Amsterdam. It is a 'town with a soul', as visitors often comment.

On this private tour you will 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 the Ljubljana’s hidden monuments, relax in the city’s greenery, and hear stories and fairytales that connect the present and the past. The tour is on foot because it is much easier to get around Ljubljana’s pedestrian Old Town. Despite the fact that it is a capital city, it is easily walkable. You will see all the major sights in Ljubljana including the main square with the Prešeren monument, Franciscan Church and Three Bridges, Congress Square (Park of the Star), the National University Library, Križanke Monastery, the New Square, the Cobbler's Bridge, the Old Square (the oldest street), the romantic river promenade, the Municipality Square, St. Nicholas Cathedral, the famous Open Air Market, Butcher's Bridge, and Dragon Bridge.

Our tour guide was excellent. She went above and beyond and she adapted to us l. She modified the tour to what we had seen and heard previously so that we didn’t hear the same thing twice. She added tons of information and details we didn’t know. She was super helpful, very knowledgeable, and friendly. She answered all our questions showed us where to shop, and where to eat. She went above and beyond what we expected to ensure we had a great time and learned all we could about the city and Slovenia. The food we tried was great. I highly recommend this tour.

Stunning experience, we descover Sloveny by a nice and exhaustive wine trip. It was very interesting, relaxing and exciting! I strongly suggest this wine tasting, either for the complete knowledge about slonenian wines and vineyard or for the magic atmosphere that we lived. Tina was kind, nice and a very expert wine specialist. The quality of wine was amazing, and the tasting was escort with clear description of all the products..
