Top Ljubljana Foods culinary walking - small group - trip

Thank you for taking the time for reviewing us, we appreciate your feedback. The point of our food tour is to present the connection between the history of Slovenes and the food we eat today. I'm sorry if you have found our tour repetitive but after participating on a city tour that is to be expected. Our food tour is designed as a city walking and sightseeing tour as in the product’s description: “Between bites, learn about Ljubljana’s fascinating architectural and cultural history.« So far, we have only had positive comments for this feature, as not all food tours have sightseeing incorporated. The second part of your review will be discussed on our next meeting because our standard protocol when presenting restaurants and dishes is always to explain where the food comes from and what is its significance. We will investigate why this hasn’t been the case on your tour. As we can’t see the tour date we would appreciate if you could inform us about this somehow to info@travelroundabout.com. Regarding the turnip soup we share ancient Romans opinion, “De gustibus non est disputandum”, or “Of tastes there should be no dispute”. :) We have also had people on the tour who said turnip soup was the highlight of the tour. But just in case, we’ll do a quality check on the soup, and while we’re there we’ll verify your claim on the wines too! :)

Dear Tracy, Thank you for joining our tour and reviewing us, we truly appreciate your input. After discussing your review and the tour with our guide and reviewing the selection of restaurants and dishes my conclusion is that your review is a bit unjustified. Our guests are able to taste (note: descriptive names in order to protect tour content) a protected sausage, protected air-cured meat products with local cheese, special vegetable oil, a protected pasta, sea-food plate with an ample fleet of 4 wine samples. We cover 5-6 biggest regions and the most recognizable dishes from each of these. That is of course a fraction of over 365 distinctive traditional dishes scattered across 24 gastronomical and 3 wine-growing regions that Slovenia has to offer. In order to give our guests the best overview of national gastronomy, we have crafted a product that presents the essence and diversity of Slovene cuisine at a very attractive price point. Reviews on all major platforms confirm we’re working in the right direction and so does comparison with similar products in neighboring countries. Maybe you got this feeling because you have rejected several food samples or maybe they were not as per your taste or maybe you were familiar with some of them since you have traveled to Slovenia before, as you have mentioned to the guide. We of course respect that individual’s tastes and do not judge anyone that does not like provided food samples, however, we cannot accept this as a fault of our product or services. Again, thank you for your input and if you come back, do check our website, we have a one-of-a-kind food tour in development you might like! 😊 all the best!
