Piran and Scenic Slovenian Coast-Private Experience from Koper

After we meet at the cruise terminal or another preferred location in Koper we will first head directly to the town of Piran which is the oldest Slovenian town and because of that is also called the museum town. It lays at the most western part of Slovenia between Italy on one and Croatia on the other side.

You will be dropped of in the heart of Piran at the best starting point to start to explore this amazingly charming town on your own and at your own pace for up to 2 hours. The biggest impact on its architecture was left from Venetian Republic times in 15th century so in Piran you will get the impression of Venice. But the town is far less crowded and had remained the spirit trough the years. Most of the residents still live there and give this town its unique atmosphere. Whether you will go up to see the church or just sit under the statue of Giuseppe Tartini- a famous violinist born in Piran, or wonder around just by walking its narrow streets, visit the towns market or have a glass of amazing Slovenian wine at the coast you will for sure fall in love with this amazing old town. Piran is also home for a number of different artists from Slovenia and other countries. We can also make a reservation for you at one of the local traditional Slovenian restaurant where some fresh fish and great wine is served at affordable prices.

After approx 2 hours we will meet again and head up to the city walls above the town. We will make a photostop for approx 10 minutes.

The scenic ride from Piran will take us trough another coastal town of Portorose where most of the tourism at Slovenian coast is taking place.

On the way back to Koper we will also drive trough the 3rd od 4 Slovenian coastal towns, the fishermans town of Izola.

From Izola we will then drive trough the regional park of Strunjan where we will make a photostop for approx 10 min above the salt fields.

After that we will take you back to your ship or another preferred accommodation as our journey concludes. All transportation will be smooth and relaxing. As we arrive back to Koper you can decide whether we drop you off under your ship or you can also choose to be dropped of at the old town centre which is approx 10 minutes away from your ship.

If the whole group agrees we can make a reservation at a local family run restaurant where some great authentic and international food and wine is served at affordable prices.
