Can't recommend this tour company and this experience enough! Peter was accommodating, informative and personable. He arranged for the tickets to the cave so we could avoid the lines and altered our itinerary after listening to our likes/preferences which truly made the day feel custom. The caves are fascinating and worth the visit.

By far, one of the most memorable experiences of our 12 day cruise! Imagine traveling with a huge multigenerational family of 21 people! Most times, I liken the experience to “herding cats.” But this full day activity requiring two vans and two very special and capable tour guides was a favorite for all of us!
All arrangements were made via email and communication was flawless from pre-planning to execution. Postonja Cave is bucket list and Predjama castle was quite interesting too! We also arranged a local afternoon bite at a seaside restaurant which was absolutely delicious and featured local delights!
This private tour was enjoyed by the youngest (2 yrs old) and impressed the oldest (82 yrs old). The guides were so knowledgeable and enthusiastic about sharing their culture and history with pride. They certainly are worthy of a mention for their patience, courtesy and professionalism!
This tour is highly recommended with 100% confidence!

I can highly recommend this tour. From the moment we booked it, we had contact with Peter. We met him at the port and he introduced us to his driver. Comfortable transport, very friendly and knowledgeable driver/guide.
We had a great day. This is a must do tour and a great tour company to use.
