Zemono is a household name in Slovenia – for a very good reason. Voted as the best restaurant in Slovenia multiple times over, it is headed by chef Tomaž Kavčič, recipient of the prestigious Italian award Cuoco d’ oro. You should go there with high expectations, as they will be met or more often exceeded. This is not just a restaurant, but an experience where dishes are often prepared right before your eyes.
Their immense knowledge of ingredients and delicate preparation translate into delicious original flavours that retain all their addictive beauty and unique harmony. Dishes are served in a very particular way, allowing guests to witness and sense the loving with which their meal is being prepared. Zemono pays homage to their roots yet does not limit its offer solely to the Vipava Valley region. The world is, in so many respects, their oyster.
Restaurant at Lojze’s takes you on a fascinating culinary journey, the likes of which you have never experienced. Fresh seasonal ingredients and the purity of the flavours are in the foreground. Preparation techniques range from entirely simple everyday cookery, to traditional expertise, boasting exceptional skill. But the one thing all of their approaches have in common: they preserve that special original, natural taste!

The tour plan was really wonderful, a good balance of urban and outdoor locations and experiences. The trip app worked perfectly, making it simple to keep organized with excursion vouchers, route maps, site descriptions, etc. it also made it easy to communicate with the travel company when we occasionally had questions. We were amazed at how much variety there was in a relatively small area. I highly recommend this company and this particular trip plan for anyone who would like to explore this area of Slovenia.

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 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.

I would highly recommend Slovenia Holidays-Guided and Self-Guided Tours. Every detail was managed for us, making our travels easy and fun. I was able to work with Urska to create a magical a travel itinerary for a group of 16. She was able to answer any and all of our questions, making our trip full of special memories that we will have for our lifetime. It was as is she read our minds, planning our trip. The accommodations and activities were perfect for our group. We went white water rafting, ziplining, swimming in alpine streams and lakes, horseback riding, hiking, you name it. Our ages ranged from 8 to 78, so to say it worked beautifully for the 16 of us is an even more impressive! Our tour guide, David, was amazing. He truly understood our travel needs, anticipating what we desired before we even knew it. He and our other driver/guide, Thomas were wonderful. Each gentleman made our trip fantastic. We were truly sad to leave Slovenia. It is beautiful, the people are friendly, and the food is delicious! The whole process was easy; and any needs were addressed. All 16 of us would recommend Slovenia Holidays-Guided and Self-Guided Tours. They are AMAZING!

A huge shoutout to our guide, Nina, whose knowledge brought so much depth to our journey. Her flexibility and willingness to pivot when we stumbled upon unexpected gems made the experience even more memorable. Both Urska and Nina made us feel cared for every step of the way.

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.

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.

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 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 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!
