Strange Food Tour
We have done food tours all over the world and this was one of the worst we have experienced. It was over an hour into the tour when we had our first bite if food. The first stop was in a local restaurant and the food we tried was very good. After that, things went downhill. The next stop was a local fast food fried chicken place and when we arrived the chicken was already sitting out on plates. The chicken was cold. The guide assured us it was the best fried chicken in the world, which it was as not. Our vegetarian daughter was given a few slices of zucchini with a slice of cheese on top. Our guide told us that she was going to a party right after and got some take away chicken to bring with her. We then went to a wine store where we had some meat and cheese which was again sitting out when we arrived. After that we had sausages. We finished at a weird bar at the top of Ljubljana’s tallest building where we had walnut cake. Not sure why we didn’t go to a bakery to try the cake but our guide told us at that stop, “Don’t be surprised if I leave you.” I guess she had to take her chicken to the party. The whole thing lasted about 2.5 hours and we definitely did not feel like the tour was worth the money. We actually went and had dinner after.
Response from the operator: Dear Susan. We are truly sorry to hear that the tour did not meet your expectations. We coordinate reservations and timings closely with each venue in advance, so dishes are prepared fresh and plated shortly before our arrival, never left out for more than a few minutes. Also, I never abandon a group at the end. There is always room for the last questions and/or recommendations at the end of a tour. We wish you all the best, Kind regards, Jasmina, Roundabout Travel

Walking History Tour and Dinner!
Having just a short period of time in Ljubjana, we decided that a walking tour combined with food and wine would be just the right activity for us. We were not disappointed as we learned so much about the history of Slovenia and Ljubjana along with tasting a sampling of local foods and wines in a variety of small neighbor settings. Our guide was delightful, knowledgeable and professional. We had a great time and would highly recommend this!

Had everything, food, wine, history, culture with engaging guide!
Excellent food tour + a way to learn about Slovenian history and culture! I was debating what tours to take and very happy this is the one I decided upon. Our guide Jasmina was engaging and knowledgeable. She was funny, found ways to make the information she shared interactive, made sure the kids on the tour had appropriate meals, and fed us well! I didnt expect to come away from the tour with as much knowledge about Ljubljana, the people, the history, and the culture and art as I did. As I didn’t have much time in the city I think that this was the perfect tour to select!

Slovenian culinary experience in Ljubljana | Private tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ljubljana.
How much does Slovenian culinary experience in Ljubljana | Private tour cost?
+
Prices start at $377 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Ljubljana usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Slovenian culinary experience in Ljubljana | Private tour take?
+
Plan for about 4 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 Ljubljana is not rushed.
Is Slovenian culinary experience in Ljubljana | Private tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 11 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Ljubljana, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Slovenian culinary experience in Ljubljana | Private tour?
+
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 Slovenian culinary experience in Ljubljana | Private tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Slovenian culinary experience in Ljubljana | Private tour?
+
Around 4 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 Ljubljana 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 Ljubljana and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Slovenian culinary experience in Ljubljana | Private tour 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 Ljubljana 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 Ljubljana?
+
On Outty we rank every Ljubljana experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Slovenia in One Day: Small-Group Bled, Postojna Cave & Predjama, Postojna Cave and Predjama Castle - Entrance Tickets Included, Ljubljana Small Group Food Walking Tour. 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 Ljubljana?
+
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 Ljubljana?
+
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.
