I enjoyed the variety of places we visited. I especially liked having a local guide at each location to learn about the history and culture of each place. The only regret for me was that we couldn’t spend more time in Lake Bled. I liked that we were able to take the boats over to the island, but I would have also enjoyed seeing a view of the lake from a higher vantage point to be able to see the entire lake with the island in the middle. Otherwise, I was fully pleased with the itinerary of the tour.

A very good trip to a spectacular and relatively unknown mountain region. Very much geared to walking, but the ferry trip across Lake Komani is truly spectacular. Tour leader was excellent, transport arrangements worked well and food was excellent and plentiful. Accommodation was generally good, although a little basic in the mountain region itself. Overall very good value for money.
