We thoroughly enjoyed seeing the seaside villages with Peter’s attentive dialogue and comfortable van. He spoke English beautifully and picked us up and dropped us off right at our hotel. His historical perspective on Slovenia was particularly interesting and he suggested an excellent restaurant for lunch.
