This was a really fun trip to two wineries that were very different from each other- one ancient and one modern.
Went to two very casual settings in the vipava valley and had really great wine, snacks and cheese. We bought a bottle each from both. Burja estate and pasji rep were both owned by wonderful people and we had so much fun as the group was great too. It was just 5 people. Our guide Simona was had so many stories to share. Even though it was raining and there was heavy traffic she took us through the scenic route and managed to get everything done in time. Pickup and drop was a breeze. Definitely recommend.
Thank you for your lovely feedback! We’re so glad you enjoyed the Vipava Valley wine experience and that both Burja Estate and Pasji Rep made such a great impression. It’s wonderful to hear you enjoyed the wines, snacks, and the small group atmosphere. We’re especially happy that Simona’s stories, flexibility, and effort to take the scenic route helped make the day enjoyable despite the rain and traffic. It’s also great to know the pickup and drop-off went smoothly. We really appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you again for another great experience in Slovenia!
We had a wonderful time on the Vipava Valley Wine Tour. The small group size made the experience feel relaxed, personal, and easy to enjoy. We visited two different wineries, and at both stops it felt less like a standard tasting and more like being welcomed into the homes of the winemakers. The wines we tried were delicious, and we loved getting to see the cellars at each winery. This was such a nice change from visiting larger wineries because the whole experience felt much more intimate and authentic. Our guide, Mike, was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. He kept the tour moving smoothly, made sure we stayed on track, and added great context throughout the day. We would definitely recommend this tour to anyone looking for a more personal wine experience in Slovenia.

Visited two fantastic and diverse wineries. One very modern and the other very old and traditional. Treated like family at both by amazing hosts. Wines were great and accompanied by a generous selection of home made dried meats, bread, cheeses, olive oil, jam. Definitely recommend this tour.

This was a lovely half day excursion! Maya was an awesome guide- giving us information on the drive out to the vineyards. The two places we visited had great wine and accompanying appetizers, sharing their love of wine with us. The small group gave us a chance to all visit and get to know each other! Very well run!

The tour was very well organized and the guide made us feel at home. We learned some interesting facts that you would likely not learn in a museum. The wine was excellent and both tours were a great experience. We thoroughly enjoyed the local cheese and meat pairings with the local wine varietals. Highly recommend if you are looking to try some Slovenian wine with excellent company!
