Piran
Piran is one of the oldest and most beautiful Slovene towns with rich history and culture. Almost 500 years lasting Venetian influence has given this town an inimitable charm. Its culture heritage is not at home only in museums since the architectural and artistic pearls, which decorate the everyday life of the local people, can be found at every corner. Giuseppe Tartini, the world famous composer and violinist, who was born and raised in Piran, had a great impact on the town. Today, his bronze statue adorns the town’s main square together with Tartini’s house where visitors can admire one of his violins. The Tartini Square is surrounded by majestic buildings, such as the richly decorated Municipal Palace, Tartini Theatre, Maritime Museum, Aquarium, Marine Biological Station, Baroque House and Apollonio Palace. On the hill above the town is the biggest and most important church, the Church of Saint George, which offers a wonderful view. Piran’s town wall, narrow streets, fishermen’s nets, compact houses that rise up the slope and beautiful sea will give you the feeling of walking through a painting. On this panoramic trip along the Slovene coast you will also visit the coastal towns of Portorož, Izola and Koper, where a tourist guide will tell you about the main attractions, historical facts and local tradition.

Charming Slovenian port, with Venetian origins and in need of many repairs.

4.00Small and charming Slovenian port, where there are many Venetian traces. Too bad that many beautiful houses are not yet renovated.... In the off season, few shops (1 grocery store at the end of the day), and, fortunately, some restaurants open.

5.00Our group of eight was met by our guide Dean right outside the cruise terminal. We were quickly underway in a very comfortable van. Dean pointed out some of the sights in Trieste as we made out way out of the city and on the road to Piran. We made stops along the way to admire the view of the ocean from turnouts high above the sea. Once in the lovely city of Piran (almost like a small Venice) Dean dropped us in the city square while he parked the van. That gave us an opportunity to get a coffee and people watch in the square. Once Dean rejoined us, he led us on a tour of the city, taking us high up the narrow walkway to the church where we were rewarded with breathtaking views. The walkways are quite narrow and quaint with cobblestones and centuries old buildings. Dean was a wonderful guide, full of interesting information. It was clear that he loved his job and his country. We had a wonderful 5 star experience!
