We had a great time on the tour. Simona was an outstanding tour guide. The food stops were great, and the food portions were large. There were great wines to go with all the great food. You’ll not be disappointed with this tour.

We had a wonderful afternoon with Tanjia and enjoyed some fantastic local food. Tanja’s history, food and wine knowledge was very impressive, and we really enjoyed speaking with and listening to her. The servings are generous, so don’t eat beforehand! Highly recommend this food tour as a great way to explore Ljubljana and learn a lot along the way.

The food tour was great, gave me some understanding on what Slovenian food is. It’s not just a food tour with wine pairing, we did some walking tour around the city as well. As it’s a small group so it made the experience much more enjoyable.
Simona, our guide was great! She’s very knowledgeable and charming. She also gave us some recommendations for places to go for more food, wine and bars. Overall it was a very enjoyable and ‘full’ tour. I will highly recommend it.

Simona gave my wife and I a wonderful tasting tour and walking tour around Ljubljana. The food provided was delicious and varied (Slovenian sausage kranjska klobasa, local cheese, soup, wines, and desert). She provided information regarding the city’s history and personal insight on life in Ljubljana. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for an orientation of the city and its food culture.

Vi havde sådan en hyggelig tur, vores guide var super sød og imødekommende, det var over forventning. Denne tur kan varmt anbefales fremfor en citysightseeing - hvor grupperne er meget store, og vi var blot 9 i vores gruppe.

As I always want to get to know locals and their food and drinks, this tour suited perfect to me. And what shall I say? It was just great. Thanks to Simona, our guide that was very nice and has told us a lot about the specialities and also historical facts about Slovenia. And make sure not to eat before - you really get a lot for your money and you will not leave the tour hungry ;-)

We did this tour on the first day of our arrival in Ljubljana and it was a great introduction to the city, its geography, history and, most of all, its food.
Our guide was Simoni who was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. We are vegetarian and she fully adapted the samples to our requirements. We really enjoyed the food and went back to several of the restaurants before the end of our holiday. It was also a great introduction to the wines of Slovenia which are of great quality.
I would definitely recommend this tour.

We really enjoyed the local food and wine tour! Simona was our guide, and she arrived on time with a sign to clearly indicate who she was with to easily locate. We learned about some of the historical sites around the city centre and had the chance to taste local flavors of cheese, olive & pumpkin oils, wine, meat & cheese boards, cake, gnocchi and more! It was a great way to get better acclimated to the options nearby as well as learning about the local culture and cuisine.

Great food and wine tour around Ljubljana old town!
Simona was an excellent and knowledgeable tour guide, who provided not just details on the food and wine, but also some historical aspects of the old town which was greatly appreciated.
Definitely full afterwards too from the 5 food courses and 4 wine courses. Best was the pork scratchings on our first stop.

We loved this tour! Our guide (Simona :) ) was so lovely, and she was awesome about speaking to the history of the city and country while we enjoyed our food and walk about the city. The tour also lent itself to those with dietary restrictions, my friend is a pescatarian and enjoyed it just as much as the rest of us. Would highly recommend (esp for when you first get to the city), and would do it again!

Tour por el centro de Ljubljana con paradas en diferentes sitios para degustar comida típica y vinos del país. Pasamos muy buen rato con Simona, nuestra guía, una chica muy simpática. Tuvimos suerte porque, supongo que por la lluvia o al ser lunes, estuvimos solos mi pareja y yo y todo fue muy íntimo. No es una ruta turística en sí, ya que no se trata de explicar o visitar cada monumento del casco histórico, sino que a la vez que vas yendo a los destinos para degustar, Simona te va hablando de lo que te rodea, bien sea una escultura, el transporte o una tienda local. Me parece una muy buena opción para hacer una primera toma de contacto con la ciudad y con la gastronomía del país, y Simona es encantadora y recomendable 100%. Si bien las cantidades no son copiosas, a lo largo del recorrido almuerzas y te quedas saciado.

We had a wonderful time on our last day in Ljubljana doing a food tour with Simona, and it was a fantastic way to end a great holiday! Simona was an excellent, knowledgeable host, and took us to various interesting places in town, including the covered market, where we sampled some utterly delicious bread, sausage and goat/sheep cheese. Without giving too much away and possibly ruining the surprise for others, the rest of the tour included more local delicacies, both hot and cold, a visit to a shop to sample some spectacular honeys, oils and a very unusual spirit, and ended with a quintessential Slovenian dessert. All in all, it was a very enjoyable experience and one that we would be happy to recommend to anyone visiting Ljubljana. A special bonus was a spot-on recommendation for the best ice cream in Ljubljana (a vegan chocolate ice cream at Fetice patisserie), which did not fail to disappoint (and I'm not vegan!)! Thank you Simona, that really was the icing on the cake :)))

Simona was the best guide! She was so passionate about her city, culture, food and wine. We immediately felt like we made a new friend! She gave us so much information on the food and wine of many regions in Slovenia. She also gave history and landmark information as we strolled the beautiful city of Ljubljana. We really enjoyed all the local cuisine we were able to experience. Food and wine truly are the best way to immerse in the culture and history of a city and this was an excellent tour. We highly recommend this tour and request Simona!!

My husband and I took this tour with my daughter and my son-in-law. We met Nina and Liliana and there was a immediate welcoming feeling with both of them. Nina was able to give us history to start our tour so we were better prepared to understand why and what and where we were going to taste while we were together. What a surprise and variety we experienced throughout the time we spent eating, We ate till we were about to burst. Then a surprise at the end to finish off the tour, it also included a souvenir to remember the experience by. Nina was so nice she forgot to give it to us and came back just to give us the souvenir. Liliana was able to speak with my husband since they are both Polish and had a common bond (which was a treat) while Nina was friendly, informative and answered pretty much every weird question the four of us threw at her. We had lots of laughs (about Satan in the soup) and much more. Would for sure recommend this tour to get a lay of the market and city and knowledge of what and where to eat in Ljubljana while you are there.

We are people that absolutely love to travel. In every new country and city that we visit, we always do a local food tour as we have found that it is the best way to get to know the culture and history of a new place. We have done too many to count, however, I can say with the utmost certainty that this tour was one of the best, if not the best we have ever done. Simona is an amazing guide..she is funny, personable, informative and a complete joy to be with. We learned so much about the food, the wine, the regions of Slovenia that everything came from as well as the rich history of the country and the beautiful city of Ljubliana. The food we tried was delicious, traditional, and meaningful to this wonderful culture. The community feel of the markets, the sustainability, and the quality of the food as well wonderful local people truly elevated the experience. I really can't say enough about my love for Slovenia! Thank you Simone for the best experience, you are a gem! We will definitely be back to try more of your food and wine recommendations. Please take this tour, you won't regret it! Book it!!

My husband and I took a personal food tour with Danijel and had the best time! Not only did we enjoy every single dish and beverage that we tried, but our conversation with Danijel as well. Danijel has such vast knowledge of the culture and history of Slovenia and the surrounding area. He picked a great variety of restaurants to sample and the tour was perfectly paced. After we were done, Danijel sent us some recipes, a list of the food we tried, and some pictures he took from our tour. I would definitely recommend taking a food tour during your stay in Ljubljana!

Our group of 10 visited Ljubljana in May 2015 and we arranged for the food tour ahead of time with Mateja Kregar from Slovenian Guides. She was very helpful while we were planning our visit and she is a fun and fantastic tour leader! We also attended Slovenian Guides' evening of Slovenian Music and Dance. She met us at our hotel for both tours and led us on the tours, which were nearby. On the food tour, we enjoyed meeting the shopkeepers, restaurant owners, fish sellers, bakers, candy makers, flower and vegetable vendors and more! Every stop included samples of food and wine. What a treat! Thanks Mateja!

Simona was a joyful and knowlable tour guide. We had four local sample dishes at three incredible restarants, had samples of local foods at two other shops. Had some amazing wines as well. Simona was easy to talk with, gave great tips on other local eateries and celebrations. Wish we had more time with her and in Ljubljana to try out all the thing she suggested. Would highly recommend (and we do food/wine tastings at most cities we visit)
