Luckily we got there when the horses were released and that awesome to briefly see for free. The prize was the Coastal City of Piran. Wow, wow, wow! Best part and gorgeous. I would have enjoyed a swim. This is the reason to do this must attend tour. The small group experience is worth it.”

“Was a little disappointed with the Lipica horse farm. I was hoping that we would be able to see the horses performing but all we were able to see were the horses either in their stalls or in fenced areas. The caves were absolutely beautiful, so different from others that I’ve been to; however it was a grueling adventure with many steps and high walkways. I didn’t think I would make the last few steps to the top! Glad I did it.”
