About Tomaz

Write a review
I am Tomaz Martinek, tour organizer and tour company co-founder. Ever since I was in secondary school, I have been passionate about traveling. The powerful hold traveling has on human emotions is amazing. Traveling to new places makes people happy, overwhelmed, inspired, surprised, and whatnot. It is this very reason, the ability to make magic happen, is why I wanted to start my own travel company. In 2006, my wish came true when I partnered with Mojca Peterka to establish one of the best travel companies in Europe. Besides running the company, which is one of the most important part of my life, I enjoy being with my family and friends. Activities which I can never give up are enjoying nature, tending to my garden, going hiking, skiing, sailing and of course, traveling. I really enjoy exploring new destinations within and outside of Europe.

Tomaz's Expertise

I am an expert on trips to Switzerland, which in my opinion is one of the most scenic countries in Europe. It always enchants me with its beauty. I personally enjoy exploring its ski resorts and hiking trails, hence, I have a good overview of these activities and services related to them. Whether clients want to participate in chocolate tastings, cheese making or any other activities in Switzerland, I've got them covered. The second country I really know well is Croatia. Whether you want to explore its medieval towns, relish on its wine and food, or sail among the Croatian islands, I can help you with enough information and planning.

Best Travel Experience

There are so many memorable experiences that it is hard to choose just one! Some years ago, I had the opportunity to go truffle hunting in Croatia. I was accompanied by a local hunter and his dog, and we went deep in the woods to look for the black gold. The entire hunting process in the woods was very exciting indeed, but it was amazing to finally find the treasure. When the dog dug out the truffle, I got to hold it in my hands and the smell was intense. When we returned, I dined on a meal that had truffles in it. It was a really rewarding experience. I highly recommend it to anyone who is into food — this is one of the best things.

Schwabacher Sibling trip to Germany

This was a special trip for six siblings with the centerpiece a visit to our father's home town. We were very pleased with having all the arrangements made for us. As adults with our own families, we each have experience planning trips, and it was a pleasure to not have to negotiate with each other about where, when and how we were getting places. Having a personal driver was very special and we enjoyed getting to know Robert. Most of the tour guides were incredible. I would like to especially single out our time in Wurzburg, where tour guide Markus was able to connect with our personal journey to our father's home town. The extra highlight was having the Johanna-Stahl-Zentrum assign two staff members join us for much of a day. Coincidentally, their newest exhibit features our Great Grandmother as one of six women profiled from the Nazi period. It was our first time ever traveling as a group of siblings. It was several people's first time in Germany, and first time doing an organized tour. All of us enjoyed the experience, and I would expect would be happy to recommend your services in the future.

Thank you to everyone who made our family dream a reality to see winter wonderland in Switzerland. Special thanks to Mr Tomaz Martinek who planned out the whole tour according to what we desired to see, taking into consideration the safety of our three children. Very well planned trip. Could not be any better! Sincere thanks also goes out to Zala and Melita and the whole team involved. Hotels booked were very good with clean, spacious and comfortable rooms, including good breakfast! The detailed itinerary was really very very detailed and precise in every way— amazing effort put in by the team! Everything was booked and paid in advance as promised to us, enabling us to have a smooth journey without any problems at all. Our tour assistant, Mr Borjan Tisma was also great! Very friendly, caring and helpful in every way, carried out the itinerary as planned, always there waiting for us before the planned time! A very responsible person indeed. Great to have him with us throughout our trip. All in all, we had a great time in the beautiful country of Switzerland which we had captured many many memorable moments to last a lifetime! Thank you to the whole team involved in planning this trip for us to such precision and details. Our best trip ever and I would highly recommend this team of dedicated tour experts and professionals to everyone who dreams of having a good, hassle free holiday with excellent planning and booking done prior to the trip.
