Une très bonne guide pour l'observation des ours - Nous avons passé une journée en juillet 2021 avec Petra Draskovic pour observer les ours slovènes et avons vraiment apprécié ses connaissances et son envie de nous faire vivre sa... read more passion pour la nature et la vie sauvage en forêt. La première partie de la journée était consacrée à une balade en forêt pour repérer les traces d'ours et autres animaux, puis en fin de journée, nous avons rejoint une cabane d'observation pour attendre la venue des ours. Nous y sommes restés 3 heures et avons vu 3 ours ainsi que quelques chevreuils.
Excellente journée. Dommage que l'observation des ours ne commence pas plus tôt car la lumière était un peu faible.

Day 5 we had made the Classic route (hard), but with a short cut of 20km and 1000hm less by first being transported by a shuttle to Livek. I would recommend that to anyone who is not a super athlete. The tour on the Matajur and then the endless singletrack down to Italy and from there back to the Brda area is still a crack. The tour was very exhausting, but feasible. If necessary, there was always the opportunity to take an Easy variant. We had done that on day 6, when it was just too hot and could only make about 80 instead of the 90 km. Actually, all tour segments were great. First, the wild Julian Alps with the Soca River and then the transition to the Mediterranean Karst Mountains. Except for the hotel Kompas in Kranjska Gora we liked everything very much. The tour was packed with singletrack, which was our goal. Also the people in Slovenia were really nice. We always ate great, whenever possible local dishes. Particularly noteworthy are the good wines that we could test everywhere. The wine area around Tolmin is incredibly beautiful and the old town invites you to linger. The arrival in Piran is then an incredible satisfaction and you can jump to cool off into the sea. Of the hotels we liked best the Hotel St. Martin in Tolmin and the hotel Piran in Piran.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank you once again. We will definitely book a tour again.

  Great combination of seeing Slovenia with experiencing local food, wine and attractions - My wife and I took part in the Guided Alps to Adriatic tour with Visit Good Place. Even though our Easyjet plane was very late landing our transfer was eventually... read more found and we ended up in this Family run Hotel for the first night. We meet our fellow cyclists in the morning and our guide Ana. The touring bikes hired were perfect for the trip, well maintained and spares given - (required later on). Each day we had a perfect breakfast buffet in each of the hotels and fabulous food at each stop over. The cycling was on empty roads and tracks with only a few busy stretches. Each day had an event of the local area which was great. We did find the limit of prosciutto as it seemed to have a limitless supply. We eat out in local restaurants or at the hotel. We found the beer and wine fantastic value as this was our only cost except for one night where we had an 8 course tasting menu where it seemed to be expensive compared to the rest of Slovenia. My wife said it was the best holiday she had been on which wasn't dampened by the thunder storms and the last day. Visit good place said we could keep the bikes for an extra day as we were going home late that night. Nothing seemed to be a trouble and Ana was a fabulous guide with exceptional knowledge and enthusiasm for Slovenia. Looking to book another trip next year.

  We did a self-guided tour, starting in Kranjska Gora and finishing in Piran on the Adriatic coast. From the pickup at the train station in Villach, to the very end,... read more the tour was faultless. The bikes we received were brand new, the accommodation choices were excellent, and even though it wasn't a gastronomic tour, the food and wine along the way were excellent.
I cannot recommend Visit Goodplace highly enough. Everything was well thought out and perfectly organised. The route choices were great as we rarely encountered any real traffic and were often on small back roads, or even on forest paths and bike paths. The only time it was a bit busier was at the end, on the last leg into Piran, but that was to be expected as it is a popular seaside destination.
If I was to do it again, I would plan more time to allow for the possibility of spending more than one night in some locations.
This was our second visit to Slovenia and we will surely be back for more.

  Excellent people, great tour, I highly recommend to everyone. Especially for those who want a different experience. Crazy, what's happening in such a short time. Thanks, Team Good Place.

  My wife and I returned a couple of weeks ago from doing the Epic Slovenia gravel bike tour. It was incredible. We absolutely loved it.   GoodPlace’s organizational... read more efforts, communication, attention to detail, gps routes, accommodations, transportation and more were excellent.   With GoodPlace doing all the logistical work, we were able focus on the thing we enjoy most; cycling in a new, magnificent, eclectic and challenging place.  The Epic Tour was all of that. We received an hour-long Zoom call in advance of the tour to walk us through the details of each day and what to expect. This was something no other tour organization has ever done for us and it was exceedingly helpful (be sure to take good notes and bring them with you😊). GoodPlace even customized our tour. Rather than start in Arnoldstein, Austria, we wanted to start in Bled, a picturesque town We’ve always wanted to visit. GoodPlace readily made the necessary changes by editing the gps route and having the rental bikes delivered to our Bled guest house. We have done lots of traveling over the years and Slovenia is the most beautiful place we’ve ever been.  We plan to return.

We highly recommend Visit Good Place. We recommend that rather than go through another travel agency you contact them directly. Their English is excellent.
