The tour will start in the unspoiled nature of forests in Loški Potok or Kostel. There, all the photo enthusiasts and adventurers can catch sight of the brown bears and create their own new photo collections. You will arrive at the spot in mid-day around 1:00 PM. This means that you will start your Brown bear photo tour around 2:00 PM. A photo session with a bear for most of us is a very special experience. The day will wrap up with a local dinner.
