Great introduction to this beautiful place - Jan is probably the best guide we’ve come across. Informative, interesting and patient. It was a great introduction to the town and he gave us some great recommendations for the rest of our holiday

Walking tour with gourmet tasting - Excellent walking tour with lots of historical and social info about Piran from our brilliant local guide. The tasting session was great as we got to try a variety of olive oils, wines and regional products which ended the experience on a high.

The perfect way to start off your stay in Piran! - Jan was beyond amazing! He was very knowledgeable and entertaining. His English is perfect. We did a nice walking tour of the city and ended with an olive oil, meats, and wine tasting. The tour was a great value. I recommend doing it your first day in Piran to learn the lay of the land and use some of Jan’s recommendations during your stay.

Cute port city - Piran is a cute car-free port city. Only residents are allowed to enter the port city by car. Tourists must park outside. We stayed 2 nights there. The cheapest car park was Garage Arze with 20,- Euro per day. Everything else was even more expensive.
Beach you look for in vain, but you can swim in many places in the water. ATTENTION, everything rocky beach!!.

Average - Good tour, providing adequate information on the city and some interesting snippets of knowledge regarding specific landmarks. Jan was not overwhelmingly helpful in answering questions, often dodging them or not directly answering the question. The tasting portion was okay, but it seemed like he was doing a lot of promotion for the store he himself also worked at. We popped a couple days after and he was there.
