Dean is absolutely amazing. He is so knowledgeable and his passion for Slovenia is apparent from the first moment. We brought our 1 year old and he was so accommodating as he is a father himself. We were able to see so many beautiful towns and experience an authentic wine tasting at a local restaurant. The staff there was so kind and Piran is a beautiful town. We felt like family with Dean and everywhere he brought us. 10/10 experience and we can’t wait to plan our next trip with him.
I am doing this review mid-tour because Dean who owns GoToExplore SI is outstanding…born and raised here he is so proud of his town and country and having a young family he appreciate our family having a one year old grandson on our tour. He shares enough information to keep you interested and informed without inundating you. He took us to the most perfect spot, Čakola for local wines, cheese, and prosciutto. They treated us like family. Looking forward to the rest of our day with Dean.
