The guide was very informative and took us to places we couldn’t have been to on our own. We enjoyed the beautiful views across Istria. The guide was very informative & interesting, but also thoughtful by getting the air con going for us at each stop (we took the trip during a heatwave & it was 41 degrees)

Excellent tour! Our guide Dalibor showed up on time to get us at our resort. He was very knowledgeable about the stops on the tour and about many other things in history from this area as well as neighboring countries. So much to experience on this tour. The day went by so fast. We could have used more time but then it would have been a 2 day tour. ☺️ Well worth the money spent. We were a family of 7 from ages 9-75. If you have a hard time walking up hills and uneven roads this would be challenging. We didn’t take anything with us but a empty backpack for things we wanted to buy and that was all we needed.

I really enjoyed seeing three different cities in Istria (as well as driving through the region) on this tour. I wasn’t able to rent a car, and only had a few days in the region, so this tour was perfect for me. The guide was knowledgeable (born and raised in Istria) and friendly, and tailored the experience to our group.

If you don't have a car this is the perfect way to see the highlights of Istria. Our guide & driver was excellent. Very knowledgeable & made us feel relaxed on the tour. Would recommend to anyone who likes mountain scenery & history.

In Jan 2023 we signed up for this tour - 8 people. The schedule was to be Rovinj, Porec, Groznjan, Motovun. It also included "Organic Wine Farm. Homemade pasta with cheesy ravioli, garden salad, pearly local wine and fresh fruit juices". When we asked our tour guide about it he said it was not on his schedule and when I showed him the paperwork he called Martin who said the schedule changed and no more lunch. Then when he was shown a copy of the paperwork he wasn't happy but agreed. Our tour guide then made the lunch reservation but then Martin called back and said no lunch again. Our tour guide was caught in the middle and if I didn't want him to get hurt I would dispute this tour with American Express because we did not get what we signed up for. I am a Travel Agent and I would not recommend this tour company because I can not trust that they will deliver the product promised.

Our guide Dalibor was an absolute wealth of information on each of the towns we visited and many that we didn't. We loved each of the towns visited and felt there was the right amount of touring and free time. All in all it was a comprehensive overview of an absolutely stunning area. Thank you Dalibor for a wonderful day out

Meu tour foi cancelado por falta de pessoas! No entanto, a empresa foi excelente: me avisou com antecedência sobre a questão e me ofereceu um tour pelas vinícolas da Ístria com um desconto e o dia foi ótimo! Tivemos um excelente guia que nos levou para 3 vinícolas durante a tarde e nos contou vários fatos interessantes sobre a região. Estávamos em um grupo pequeno e todos eram amigáveis. Foram servidos excelentes vinhos, 3 nas duas primeiras vinícolas (onde também foram servidos antepastos) e 4 na última. Na primeira vinícola fizemos um pequeno tour e vimos o início da temporada de produção dos vinhos. Foi uma tarde muito agradável e eu adorei a preocupação da empresa em entrar em contato comigo e me oferecer esse tour, em vez de simplesmente cancelar o tour em que eu estava antes e "ficar por isso mesmo", que é o que a maior parte das empresas de turismo fazem. Realmente, foi um diferencial.
