Excellent day trip with Peter. He was very informative and enjoyed a giggle with us. Nothing was too much trouble.

Mia met us at the cruise ship terminal in Koper and to our surprise we had a private tour to Ljubljana and Lake Bled. If I had to pick between the two destinations I certainly would head straight to Lake Bled. Lake Bled is like a fairy tale setting...just beautiful.
We had time to take the pletna boat to the island and follow the tradition of ringing the bell at the church and making a wish. Afterwards we enjoyed the Alpine beauty and sunshine while enjoying the traditional Bled Kremsnita cake. As we drove Mia explained the history and culture of her country pointing out landmarks and the breathtaking scenery along our route. Just a wonderful day!

After reading dozens of outstanding reviews about Peter, and then having great correspondence with him myself, I was excited for our tour. We were a group of 10 so organised for a private tour of Lake Bled, Ljubljana and Koper for 9 hours.
When we met at the port the driver was hard to find and another group had difficulty finding their driver too. It turns out it was the same company. We were then gathered and split into cars.
Instead of a private tour, we formed a procession of cars (led by our driver) and visited each place together. Our driver spent much of the drives on the phone to other drivers teeing up the timings. He provided minimal information and never told us how long each drive would be.
We wasted time in each place waiting for each group to be ready to leave.
At the end, we missed seeing Koper because we ran out of time. We also arrived back half an hour after we were meant to.
It wasn't a great experience and definitely wasn't the private tour we were promised.
