4. Rent-a-local guide

First there is a wish to travel to Slovenia because it is seriously on the tourist map these days. The travel wish comes true when you book your plane ticket.

1. Alpe Adria Trail Experience Soca valley

Walking is a n°1 sport or past time activity for many Slovenian people. Food plays an important role in our life and most of us still cook Slovenian food on a daily bases. What is more, for decades Soca valley has been (and still is!) an outdoor playground but recently becomes a foodie paradise thanks to Ana Roš and other food providers in the region who are using local ingredients and prepare local specialties.
