Once a famous travel photographer of National Geographic magazine was asked about his favorite places for travel photography in the World. With a bright sparkle in his eyes, he exclaimed »Morocco, Cuba, and India! You discover so many colors!«.

Why Slovenia? UNKNOWN AND BOUTIQUE Many people abroad have never heard of Slovenia (written Slovenija in the native language). Sometimes even its neighboring countries’ inhabitants don’t know much about it, or it also might be mistaken for Slovakia. Many could argue, that being unknown is not good for tourism in a small country with its population slightly over 2 million. But in the case of Slovenia, it is different. Before the outbreak of the Coronavirus earlier this year, massive tourism had been flooding... Continue reading
We have a big passion for creativity in real life and on travel. The creative connections that our guests and workshop masters form when feeling themselves and doing the things that inspire them are very deep and sometimes connect them for life.

One is the creative hands-on workshops we add to our (Grand Tours) programs, and the other are tours... Continue reading

Surprisingly the opportunity arose while I was guiding in Morocco. I had a chance to stay in the ancient city of Fes, Morocco for a week between two tours. I decided I wanted to do something different, where I would be able to meet local people in their... Continue reading
Elegant Grand Tour in Morocco On our Elegant Grand Tour, we take our guests to the North of Africa, so close that we almost can touch Europe, yet so far from the Western cultures. Morocco keeps its centuries-old traditions, cities, and way of thinking that to a Westerner, look and feel like a glimpse into an oriental hammam where Sultans enjoy in their opulence and are joined by exotic young Odalisques. Charm, mystique, and authenticity are following a visitor on every step. Morocco... Continue reading

Plenty of time for the selected workshop, learning, experimenting, and communicating... Continue reading

The tour is made of many successive experiences that connect the three cities (Vienna, Ljubljana, and Venice)... Continue reading
VINTAGE GRAND TOUR Our Vintage Grand Tour to Cuba takes our guests right there, amidst the big seas (the Atlantic Ocean, the Caribbean Sea, and the Gulf of Mexico). This island has kept its vintage lifestyle and its unique attitude towards life. The people of Cuba are warm and welcoming, and so are the rhythms of their music and the steps of the dance, salsa. But there is so much more to Cuba than rum, cigars, dancing, music, and their world-famous... Continue reading
