Don’t Miss the Hidden Gem of Trieste - The private, Experience Trieste 2.5 hour walking tour was the perfect introduction to this Italian port city. As a cruise port gateway to Venice, Trieste may not get all the attention it deserves, but—trust us—it’s well worth spending some time there. Our personable local guide, Lubos, possessed all of the attributes deserving of a five-star rating: punctuality, knowledgeable, flexibility, and friendliness. We also greatly appreciated his pre-tour communications via WhatsApp, which gave us the confidence that all was in order. Everything promised in the tour description was delivered in a timely manner, at a leisurely pace, and by the knowledgeable and winsome, Lubos. The tour focused on Old Town Trieste, including its history, architecture, and cultural landmarks. The tour was the perfect springboard for our port of call there.

Great intro to Trieste - Excellent tour. Lubos was very knowledgeable and kept us interested. We went for coffee at a local place which was awesome. We also had one person with a wheelchair and he was able to modify the tour to accommodate us. Highly recommend

History, anecdotes and curiosities in the company of a very cultured and funny guide - Punctuality at the meeting point.
Our guide was welcoming, interesting, immediately understood the interests of the group and offered us a rich historical-economic presentation of the city. He made us taste Trieste coffee and accompanied us through the city center, enriching the information with pleasant anecdotes about the artists, which Trieste hosted.
We recommend

An Unexpected Treasure - Lubos was a life saver agreeing to book a private tour at the last minute. He was a delightful and charming companion who customized our tour on the spot based on our interests and preferences. He took excellent care of us and made what might have been a forfeited day into a magical one. He went above and beyond in every way to make our day in Trieste memorable. We will definitely call on him again should we find ourselves returning to the city.

What a beautiful city - Our guide Lubos was excellent, without his insight we wouldn’t have known things to really enjoy Trieste and its culture as much, we would highly recommend
