Jurij Puc is an excellent guide, very professional, kind, a true gentleman, and has great knowledge of his profession. We have traveled to many places, and Jurij will always be present in our lived experiences. The excursion was excellent, and the visit was beautiful. Jurij is an excellent guide, and I highly recommend him and the excursion.

It was very good - definitely worth the drive Carmen is full of local information - the only recommendation would be if she could use a microphone because the people in the back couldn’t hear what she was saying.

We had a wonderful day in Slovenia with Maurizio as our guide. he took us on an interesting walking tour of Koper and then we headed to the Slovenian coast. We took scenic back roads which made the experience so interesting. Once we got into Puran, we were able to climb the steps to the church and walk around the small scenic coastal town. Mauricio suggested a wonderful place to have lunch he is a very enthusiastic and charming guide.

What made this tour memorable was that Mateja is locally born and raised who is very proud of her culture and roots. She did a wonderful job sharing her passion and knowledge of the region with us. We had a great time touring sLOVEna with her.

What a great day with a good overview of the area. Each town is small so having a guide/driver with a good knowledge of the region and history was awesome. Our guide Andrej was wonderful. We arrived on a cruise ship and the company was great about communication. Andrej was accommodating to our interests and adjusted the tour to suit us. The van was comfortable with AC.
