Your small group tasting tour kicks off in downtown Ljubljana in front of the tourist information center. Meet your expert guide, who will serve as your culinary docent for the day, and your fellow diners, then set off for your first course. This often-overlooked country will surprise you with its diverse—and delicious—traditional specialties. Expect plenty of sausages, cured meats, local vegetables and burek (meat wrapped in a flaky phyllo dough).

Admire the Baroque-era and art deco architecture designed by Slovenian architect Jože Plečnik, as well as the charming cobblestone streets, as you walk from restaurant to street food stand and cafe. Listen as your guide explains how the dishes are made and mingle with the local restaurant staff. Sip four Slovenian wines for a true local dining experience.

As the tour comes to an end, you’ll be satiated and inspired, having sampled nine dishes total and ambled through the beautiful streets. As you bid farewell to your guide, continue exploring Ljubljana on your own.

Excellent tour!

I thought it was great! We tried 5 wines and 6 dishes, and we finished on top of their sole skyscraper! Just a fantastic evening. Our guide was great: she was knowledgeable, funny, and did a great job balancing factual info with interesting stories. I highly recommend!

We had so much fun on this tour! It turned out to be only the two of us. Not only did we love the food and wine, the tour also served as a walking tour where we learned about the city of Ljubljana and Slovenian history. A great way to experience Ljubljana

Jasmine Was very knowledgeable in our family enjoy this tour very much. Due to Covid we were by ourselves and Jasmine made it very personable and just a very good time. We got to experience lots of foods we have never had before and most of which we enjoyed. Enjoyed the Slovenia wines and Learned about the wine regions was my favorite. The desert of course was the favorite of my sons. I would definitely recommend this to those wanting to learn and enjoy.

Getting stood up by your tour operator
Sheri_B
, Dec 2021
After waiting at the designated meet point for about 10 minutes, i got help from the tourist desk. She contacted the operator and, after about another 30minutes of waiting, i learned that the tour operator had cancelled my tour, but never bothered to contact to me. It was too late to schedule anything else, since they had completely left me hanging by their lack of communication. I wasn't able to get any traditional Slovenian food or do any wine tastings.

Dear Sheri, We are very sorry for this situation and that you were not able to get any traditional food. Honestly, this was our mistake. We somehow forgot to cancel the tour officially and notify you. We are truly sorry for this mistake that has never happened before. We wish we could do something to correct it. Hopefully you understand, Best regards, Roundabout team

Good way to kill some time
Catherine_G

The guide attempted to blend history with the restaurant stops, but it was awkward & stifled the group’s chemistry. The history was uninteresting and repetitive if you took the history tour of the city. Better explanation of WHY the food we were eating was singled out as significant. For example, a pink looking gravy was a turnip soup. Nobody in the group spit it out but it was not our favorite. The guide appeared surprised/upset that we didn’t love it more. Wine was good at every stop.

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! :)

There were only two of us on the tour, so it was more like a private tour, which was wonderful. Our guide Masha (sp?) was great, and overall the tour was excellent value for money. Would absolutely recommend to anyone visiting Ljubljana!
