Goriška Brda is doordrenkt met een wijntraditie die teruggaat tot de pre-Romeinse tijd, toen het gebied werd bewoond door de Venets. Talrijke amforen die in het gebied zijn gevonden, getuigen van het belang van het gebied als centrum van de wijnbouw. Geen wonder dat oude culturen deze plek zo geschikt vonden. Het klimaat in Goriška Brda is bijzonder gunstig voor de wijnbouw. De Adriatische Zee ligt op slechts ongeveer vijftien mijl afstand, van het gebied gescheiden door het Soča-plateau. Hogere heuvels in het noorden en een kalksteenrug in het oosten beschermen de regio Brda tegen slecht weer uit het noorden, waardoor het een perfecte wijnbouwlocatie is. Het landschap van Goriška Brda bestaat voornamelijk uit sedimentair flysch gesteente met afwisselende lagen zandsteen, mergel en carbonaatturbidiet. Het mengsel van mediterrane en continentale klimaten biedt deze terrasvormige wijngaardregio, ook wel Sloveens Toscane genoemd, benijdenswaardige wijnbouwomstandigheden. De meest prominente wijnsoort die in Goriška Brda wordt geproduceerd is ongetwijfeld Rebula. Hoewel hij oorspronkelijk uit Griekenland komt, wordt Rebula hier al meer dan 750 jaar geproduceerd en vertegenwoordigt hij nog steeds ongeveer 25% van de wijn uit de regio. Er zijn ook tal van andere wijnen te proeven in deze fantastische regio, waaronder Merlot, Chardonnay Sauvignon Verde, Pinot Grigio, Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Bianco, Sauvignon en Cabernet Franc, Mavasia, Muscatel en Barbera. Een bezoek aan de wijngaarden en wijnkelders van Goriška Brda is altijd een prachtige ervaring. De plaatselijke bevolking levert uitstekende prosciutto en verhalen over de Sloveense wijnbouwcultuur die een langdurige indruk achterlaten op iedereen die een slokje komt nemen.
The service provided by this company is first class. Our agent, Marusa was superb in terms of her communication, her suggestions and recommendations and brilliant organisation of our trip. Had we tied to organise for ourselves we would almost certainly have missed things out through lack of knowledge. Everything worked so well that we were able to make the most of our first wonderful visit to this beautiful, friendly and hospitable country. We loved it.

Slovenia Holidays / World Discovery ( travel agent Grega) arranged a one week travel program for us in Slovenia, combining our own wishes of some hiking and nature experiences, some sea-, city- and country-side visits and his own suggestions (Ljubljana food tour, Planina cave spelunking with personal guide, etc.). The process around customising the itinerary and perfecting it went very smooth. He arranged tickets, guides and a rental car, all accessible through a neat app, and the plan turned out to fit very well, including a rental car upgrade to accommodate larger then anticipated suitcases. We had not heard so much about Slovenia beforehand, but it is amazing, as are its people, food, culture and not least its diverse nature, its exceptional gorges and caves.

Slovenia Holidays did a fantastic job in putting together an eight-day, tailor-made tour for our small group. We had an amazing time and highly enjoyed all elements of our trip – including tour of Ljubljana, gorge hiking, visiting Slovenia’s famous caves, alpine views, hot air balloon ride, beautiful coastal town of Piran and, of course, delicious food and wine 😊. Our holiday agent – Grega - was a pleasure to work with and ensured our holiday covered the key locations and experiences Slovenia has to offer.
The tour was a perfect introduction of Slovenia – beautiful and diverse country. We enjoyed everything, well organised and felt in safe hands. Our guide – Sanda - was a good match for us and tuned into our relaxed attitude.
We would highly recommend Slovenia Holidays to anyone wishing to discover and explore real Slovenia.

Our private Hike and Bike tour was nothing short of amazing! We had a fantastic holiday, and Tomaz, our guide, went out of his way to ensure everything went smoothly. He was knowledgeable, punctual, entertaining, reliable, experienced... the perfect guide! It was a pleasure to indulge in such a breathtakingly beautiful country. Thank you, Ivana and Grega, for arranging our trip professionally and efficiently.

Slovenia Holidays bood ons een geweldige ervaring. Er was een goede balans tussen geplande activiteiten en vrije tijd. Onze gids Ivana was niet alleen deskundig, maar ook erg vriendelijk en behulpzaam. We werden verliefd op Slovenië en kijken ernaar uit om terug te gaan. Als we dat doen zullen we Slovenia Holidays weer gebruiken!

Dear Urska
Happy New Year!
I wanted to extend our sincere gratitude for the amazing trip you put together for us. Every detail had been arranged and shared with us, making the trip stress free and extremely relaxing.
Having never previously used a travel agent I admit to being a little apprehensive, but I can't praise you enough for the seamless organisation and arrangements.
Tomaz was fantastic and stayed in contact as required for our various transfers. I would highly recommend you and your team to anyone travelling to Slovenia.
Unfortunately, I don't have a Google account so it will not register my 5-star rating, but please feel free to use the above for a testimonial.
Thank you again

Such a surprise that everyone spoke English and was most friendly. Our guide, David, was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. Every stop was a new adventure. We were four 70+ year olds but had no trouble negotiating the tour. Love the country.

I was pleasantly surprised with the small size of our tour group. The Highlights of Slovenia Tour is named perfectly - we were taken to the top spots this beautiful country has to offer. The accommodations were fantastic - great breakfasts included! Our tour guide/driver, Nina, was delightful and knowledgeable. For anyone who wants a taste of what this lovely country is like, this is the tour for you! Would highly recommend.

Having just returned from eight days in Slovenia, I can only say "wow". It is a magnificent country of beauty, greenery, and friendliness. Slovenia Tours created an itinerary for the eight people in our group, and we could not have been happier. Our journey took us to Ljubljana, Lake Bled and Piran with many unique stops along the way. Our guide, Tine, helped to make this trip even more enjoyable. His understanding of the English language was impeccable, his knowledge of the country's history was vast, and his sense of humor was constant...had us continually laughing. Our group has traveled extensively, but I can confidently say this was one of our best trips!

We had a fantastic holiday in Slovenia. This was our first time visiting and we’re very glad that we had someone who was an expert in the area to book the holiday for us. Everything was fantastic, the hotel room was amazing, the ski resort was really family friendly and the kids enjoyed the skiing and the swimming pool next to slopes. We discovered some excellent restaurants with great food and lovely Slovenia wine and all great value.

Slovenia tours did an amazing job and I do not say this lightly. It was an extraordinary voyage through a stunning and lovely and friendly country that left us all in awe and full of admiration.
The activities, the guides, the transport, the locations, the combination of all the various agenda items were wonderful. The hotels fulfilled the expected standard and were all very pleasant.
The value was also very good, so I can only highly recommend Slovenia Tours.

We had such a great time with Slovenia Holidays. Ivana was simply amazing. She made an amazing itinerary for our family (two girls 9 & 12). She guided us throughout our travel and kept it fun and interesting for our girls (and grown ups). She was very knowledgeable about every aspect of the country, culture and history. Fantastic recommendations for lodging and food. We would definitely plan a future trip to Slovenia with Ivana and Slovenia Holidays.

What a wonderful company! We've never done any guided holidays before, preferring to go it alone. But with 3 young kids now in tow we decided to get some help. And what help! Nothing was too much trouble, all the guides were fantastic - the accommodation they selected was great and all the transfers were hassle free. Thoroughly recommend!

We had a wonderful trip to Slovenia, thanks to Slovenia Holidays! They arranged a perfect mix of kid-friendly and adult activities, so our family of 4 had an amazing experience. From the Pletna boat ride on Lake Bled to touring Ljubljana, the Slovenian capital, by bike, we had a perfect trip. The trip was well organised and I can't recommend them enough!

Was always a fan of guided holidays, but this time I have decided to go for a self guided holidays, to see how well i can guide myself :) It was super easy, fun, great agenda. Just the weather could cool it down a little bit :) however there are so many beautiful alpine lakes in Slovenia where you can cool down, if you like refreshing water that is :) Thank you for this water filled holiday! it was an absolute blast!

We namen een tour rond Ljubljana met onze gids Ivana. Ze was zeer deskundig en liet ons plaatsen en dingen zien die we zelf gemist zouden hebben.
We raden deze tour ten zeerste aan. Het zal uw tijd daar verbeteren en informeren.
