Fascinating tour of Trieste with Santiago

Strolling through Trieste’s major landmarks and neighborhoods this morning with our guide, Santiago, was a treat. It was like being led around by an old friend who happened to know a great deal about the history and culture of the city. Santiago gave us leads for excellent places to eat and caffeinate for the remainder of our stay. We recommend this walking tour as a way of acclimating yourself to this vibrant city.

Best ever experience

One of a kind experience. My husband and I were the only people in the glass. I was on cloud 9 for getting to make pasta in Italy. We even found a kitchen store so I could bring home a new ravioli cutter! I’m still in heaven and will be talking about it for some time.

Lake Bled and Ljubljana Tour from Trieste

Peter_W, Jan 2026

Lovely day trip to Slovenia

I thought that we were going on a large coach tour but it turned out that there were only 6 people on the tour which was fine. We had a wonderful guide , Johanas, and he was very knowledgeable and helpful and very good company. Unfortunately the weather was not good when we got to Bled and the fog and mist blocked the views of the scenery but we moved on to Ljubljana and really enjoyed the tour. Finally when we returned to Trieste my son left his camera on the mini bus. fortunately we managed to contact Johanas and he very kindly drove back to Trieste to give my son his camera. He was great about it and I was very impressed with the service. 5 stars from me. Thanks again Johanas. Well done.

Private Transfer from Trieste to Venice Airport / Venice City

Best service ever

This was the most accommodating service I’ve ever used. I had to cut a vacation short due to an injury. I needed to get to the airport and I wanted to make sure I got there safely under the circumstances. I want t through you to set up the car service. My driver arrived and had to park a little outside of the area when he saw me he got with security so he was able to get closer. The entire ride he was checking on me, making sure it was OK and everything was good. We got to the airport and I needed assistance, but she was not allowed to go to the drop off point that the airline said to go to. we parked in an outside parking lot and he told me to wait in the car while he went inside. He came out and brought me someone to assist with the wheelchair. While that person pushed the chair, my driver carried my luggage into the airport. He did not leave my side until he assured that I was checked in and everything was good to go. Meanwhile, from the moment I booked the manager of the company, Damien, was in contact with me. He assisted every step of the way and followed up after everything was complete. I would recommend this company and the people involved in a heartbeat.

Postojna Cave & Predjama Castle - Small Group Tour from Trieste

Roberta_T, Sep 2025

Simply amazing!

Photos on the Viator website, which are stunning, cannot fully capture the exterior beauty of the castle and its property. The interior was amazing. The audio guides were a great addition. The cave journey was beyond expectations. We’ve been to several on the US, but the magnificence of this one was overwhelming. A true wonder of nature! Definitely a “don’t miss” excursion!

William_M, Aug 2025

Highly recommended tour with great guide!

Wonderful tour, excellent itinerary, knowledgeable guide, and perfect pacing make for a memorable excursion. Trieste is like how Venice must have been forty years ago before being over-toured. We loved every stop, especially Cafe Tommaseo for cold drinks and appetizers. The Roman Theatre and the grand piazza were other favorites. We learned a great deal about Austria-Hungary roots of the city, which make it unique among Italian towns to tour.

Postojna Cave & Predjama Castle from Trieste

Judith_P, Jul 2025

Castle and Cave is a WOW!

Amazing day. Interesting Castle and absolutely incredible cave. I have been in many caves but this was the best. I have never seen anything like these. Well organized with a train going back 2 miles. Then you walk through the caves for about 1 hour. Lots of uphill and down hill walking. Great tour. Great driver, Ernest did a good job of telling us about the country and many fun facts. Thank you

Postojna Cave & Predjama Castle excursion - Entrance fee included

Amy_W, Jul 2025

Amazing Experience

This tour starts by going to Predjama Castle, which is nothing like I’ve ever experienced before. Seeing how this castle was built into the side of a rock face was amazing, and then going from room-to-room to see the inside was interesting. From there, you travel to the Postojna Cave. The caves are 10 degrees Celsius year round, so make sure you have a jacket. I have never been inside a cave system before, so this was a first for me. The rock formations inside were spectacular. FYI, there were no stairs within the caves; it was all ramps. The Castle was nothing but stairs.

Piran & Panoramic Slovenian Coast from Trieste

Melvin_R, May 2025

Excellent tour!!!

It was a great tour. Accommodations were good as well. Visiting Koper and most of the time in Piran. Site seeing and opportunities to take pictures. In Piran there is plenty of free time after walking around with the tour guide explaining all about the city. Our tour guide was Ernest (Ernie) and he was awesome. Very friendly and explained in detail and answered all our questions. Very kind as well taking in consideration most of the group were elderly. Excellent tour and thanks to Ernest, and will definitely recommend to friends and anyone.
