“I can’t recommend Primo highly enough! From start to finish, he went out of his way to make sure we had the best possible experience. Even though there were only two of us signed up, he didn’t cancel the tour—instead, he gave us a truly personalized and memorable ride through Slovenia. But what really stood out was Primo’s exceptional customer service. I lost my phone somewhere along the bike route, and without hesitation, Primo rode back miles to find it—despite having other important things to attend to. That kind of care and commitment is rare, and I’m incredibly grateful. If you want to experience Slovenia through the eyes of someone…”

Hij wist ons veel te vertellen over de geschiedenis van Slovenië en Ljubljana in het bijzonder. Het duurde drie uur, maar ik heb tot het eind met interesse geluisterd. Ik had nog wel iets meer over het echt oude centrum willen weten. Maar het was zeker de moeite waard!”

She insured we kept up with a ride, made certain we were comfortable and took joy and pointing out all of the mountain peaks that were crystal clear visible on a beautiful day. We stopped about halfway through our trip and a lovely village cafe and had a charcuterie board for lunch. Stopped off and saw where they made charcoal the old-fashioned way and then sped down the mountain. All during the trip she took short videos for us to remember our time. We finished the ride at her home where she and her partner made us Turkish coffee, told us about the holidays going…”
