Hiking, biking, climbing or even try paragliding in tandem of course.

Or just relaxing, reading the book in front of a tourist farm, and breathing fresh summer air. Maybe it is wise to relax a bit, before the true local adventure in the afternoon.

After an early lunch, we will move to a neighborhood where we will participate in mowing – a very traditional work of this period. After mowing, we have to hay harvest it all in one big pile. Due to hard work, we will have a well-deserved lunch from a basket. You will try only locally made food and wine, all prepared in an old traditional way. As it was the old folk custom, we will also take an easy nap under the trees to rest for a bit.

After a well-spent 3 local living days, it is a time to move to the best Slovenian tourist attraction you definitely want to see.

Our first GEKO moment will be in the darkness of Postojna Cave, the world’s top attraction.

In the afternoon we will visit Ljubljana and you will have free time to visit the top 5 attractions of Ljubljana. Ljubljana Castle, Dragon bridge, Prešeren Square, Ljubljana bank with numerous bars and Cathedral.

You can taste the warm feeling of evening life in Ljubljana.

It is your final day, so we will move south and visit a famous white horse stud farm in Lipica. Horses from Lipica were trained to serve on Vienna Habsburg castle as Kaiser’s horses. Moving to Koper, where we will take a fish boat and while traveling to Piran, another top attraction of Slovenia having a fish picking on the board awaits us. The evening will be reserved for tase elite organic/biodynamic wines from Vipava Valley, a superb conclusion of the local taste adventures.
