    Review of Piran Tour as Prosecco/Karst one was cancelled last minute

    kwhiteuk, Oct 2025
    I didn't actually end up on this tour as it was cancelled at the last minute. I ended up on the Piran tour instead. The Piran tour was very good and our guide, Dana was excellent. However, I definitely would not recommend booking a tour with Koper Tours. I tried contacting them numerous times in the week before our tour for a meeting time and was consistently ignored. I was finally given a meeting time by a Viator customer service assistant who called them on my behalf but then a day later I received the message saying my tour was cancelled. Really shocking customer service. Not even sure why the tour was cancelled but I'm sure they could have let me know before they did!

    Fantastic tour and guide

    Our tour guide Dean was wonderful. His passion, enthusiasm and knowledge made the tour a special remembrance. We highly recommend you take this tour and ask for him. You will be happy that you did.

    Food and wine with a view!

    Scenery, wine and food! Our trip around the Karst region was wonderful and I highly recommend. The tour took us to the Santuario di Monte Grisa, on the top of the hill, Great stop and not something I had thought of doing. then over to the town of Stanjel, amazing views, gardens and lovely area. very relaxing lastly was a bountiful lunch at Vina Kobal. featuring fresh meats and numerous wine tastings. truly delicous was the red sparkling wine! Highly recommend that day tour. Ernest was delightful and knowledgeable. All around pleasure of a day!

    Slovenia country side

    Dean was knowledgeable and accommodating. Saw the country side strangers that became friends. Slovenia was beautiful to see through the eyes of a resident.

    Great guide. Great tour.

    Our guide, Matthew, shared his love ❤️ of the areas we visited. He was very personable, informative and very flexible. We enjoyed our tour very much

    Interesting tour away...

    Interesting tour away from a lot of overcrowded sites. Great drive through the countryside and learning of the history. Wine tasting stop a great extra to the final stop to sample prosecco in Prosecco

    Not at all as described. A SCAM!

    Michael_P, Jan 2023
    This trip is a nightmare and I am currently trying to get my money back because it was a scam but unfortunately Viator has a terrible refund system where you have to go through the company that provided the tour. It says you will drink some of the best wine Italy has to offer and explore the prosecco region. We went to a community bar filled with old drunks at 10am and drank a glass of awful "prosecco" out of a soda gun, then wandered around empty villages in Slovenia for 4 hours before going to an awful winery in Slovenia where some cured pork and cheese was served. We asked to stop for food multiple times and were denied by our tour operator. It was an awful trip and our tour guide spent most of the time trying to convince us to buy property in these empty villages in slovenia. The whole trip was a scam to get people to spend money in Slovenia. We never went to an Italian winery or vineyard.

    Great fantastic day

    Going to the Farrari gardens and viewing the Karst region, stopping for a glass of Prosecco in the Prosecco region and a light lunch at the wine and prosciutto agri -restaurant, the guide collected us from our hotel on time, he was very informative
