Excellent Tour from Rovign to Ljubljiana via Koper, Trieste, VinaKoper Winery, and Lipica
Fabulous day spent with our guide/driver, Peter Zalozaik! He picked us up promptly as arranged in Rovign, Croatia at 1000 in his large, comfortable, and impeccably spotless van. There was more than enough room for the four of us and our one each 20Kg suitcases (next size up from carry-on) and back-packs. (6-8 people and bags could fit in his van.) Our destination was Ljubljana, and we had previously selected stops at Trieste and Lipica to see the Lippizaner horses. Peter suggested we might also enjoy seeing Koper, the seaport city and when we said we liked wine, he suggested a local winery. He was very flexible and anxious to make sure we saw what we wanted – but also to let us know about other places we might enjoy seeing on the way. We left shortly after 1000 and arrived in Ljubliana at 1600. In between was breathtaking, lush countryside – sea and mountains – and an informative and entertaining mix of Peter’s passion for his country, history, and stories of Slovenia. Kopor is a working seaport town. We climbed the old bell tower for a 360 panoramic view of the seaport and surrounding city and hills, then strolled around and bought bereks and almonds for a snack. We chose a shorter stop in Trieste – enough time to see the Piazza Unita D’Italia and elegant Hapsburg era grand buildings and fountain. The stop at VinaKoper winery was a blast! We tasted several delightful Slovenian wines and witnessed something none of us have ever seen – people bringing large plastic bins and filling them with wine from machines that look like clean, elegant gasoline tanks. The winery sells traditional bottles too – but the “fill ‘er up” tanks/hoses are a sight to behold!! The horses at Lipica were beautiful—lots of foals – all happily milling around behind the same long white fences you see in Kentucky horse country. Peter dropped us off as close as he could to our apartment in the old city part of Ljubljana. Before he left, he also gave us a great list of suggestions for daytrips from Ljubljana, things to avoid (Lake Bled’s weekend crowds) – Must-Do’s like the big market downtown on Saturday – restaurants he likes (and he is a foodie) – in short – ways to enhance our Slovenia experience. We highly recommend his guide/tour service—as an excellent value but more importantly – Peter gave us experiences we would not have had without his local expertise. Thank you Peter!!!
Response from the operator: Hello Dennis B, This is the most in depth review of my service I have ever got on Trip Advisor. I cannot express enough how much this means to me. Because you kept your promise on suporting me over here, and most of all you took a good ammount of your precious time to write down all you did. And I am really aware of that. And I really appreciate it. It is also true that I really have the passion for my country and when I meet people like you it is just impossible not do as much as possible to represent Slovenia in the best possible way. That is within smaller group and not only sightseeing but also trough some tasting. Thank you again and please keep in touch because as far as I know you are coming back again and then I would like to assist you with anything that you might need. Thank you again and hope to see you againg. Warm regards from Koper Peter

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Discover Ljubljana Private Tour from Trieste: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Trieste.
How much does Discover Ljubljana Private Tour from Trieste cost?
+
Prices start at $649 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Trieste usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Discover Ljubljana Private Tour from Trieste take?
+
Plan for about 6 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Trieste is not rushed.
Is Discover Ljubljana Private Tour from Trieste worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Trieste, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Discover Ljubljana Private Tour from Trieste?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Discover Ljubljana Private Tour from Trieste suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Discover Ljubljana Private Tour from Trieste?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Trieste can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Trieste and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Discover Ljubljana Private Tour from Trieste start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Trieste within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Trieste?
+
On Outty we rank every Trieste experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Prosecco Origins Wine Experience, Private Trieste Sightseeing Tour, Trieste: Unique Food Tour with Local Flavors and Tastings. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Trieste?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Trieste?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

Not included: Food and drinks; and Funicular ride to the castle (approx 21 EUR - audio guide + funicular included). Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

+
