A Great Day - Loved the chance to sample local cuisine and winemakers, while seeing parts of the Croatian countryside. Driver/guide was excellent and very informative. A most enjoyable day.

Exceeded our expectations! - We are independent travellers who found Koper Trips online when looking for day trips out of Trieste where we spent 3 nights. After several emails back and forth, we decided that the best plan for us was to book both the Flavours of Istria tour and the Piran & Panoramic Slovenia tour. As things turned out, we saw only Koper, Slovenia, at the end of our day, but that was not a problem for us because the rest of the day was filled with beauty, good conversation with Dejan, delicious food, and lots of great wine! In Croatia, we picked up an additional guest in Rovinj before heading to Hum, Kotle, Motovun, and lunch along Limski Fjord. After returning our other guest to her lodging in Rovinj, we went to Koper where Dejan showed us the office, gave us a lovely wine tasting, and walked us through the pretty Tito Square. The day was fabulous, and we all want to return to this area! Dejan picked us up at 8 AM at our hotel in Trieste and returned us there almost 12 hours later. We are very pleased with Koper Trips!

Dejan was great, it was a really fun... - <p>Dejan was great, it was a really fun day riding around Croatia with him and we loved the restaurant where we ate lunch -- the steak with truffles was fantastic! The local olive oil was also great, and the country was beautiful.</p>

Tour was not as advertised. Only one... - <p>Tour was not as advertised. Only one of 3 listed stops was actually visited. Tastings involved visiting commercial shops that had samples of olive oil, truffles and the like. There was no formal meal provided or even offered. Wine tasting was again at commercial establishments. The last stop was at a winery where we were charged to taste wines. The scenery in Istria is beautiful, but I do not believe we received the value provided in the pre-tour description of what the tour would involve. A disappointment.</p>
