Great experience, lovely forest trek. - Very enjoyable trek up to the highest point of Sljeme. Very good communication before the tour . Tomas was an excellent guide, he chose a trek of approx 2 hrs up through the forest to the summit approx 700 m elevation.There we had a typical Croatian lunch with great views. Restaurants prices were reasonable.My friend was tired so we took the gondola down instead of trekking, so if you don't want to strain at all, take the gondola up 10 e ticket and walk down Tips: trekking poles came in useful. Try booking during the week so there are less people around. Lovely greenery away from the city Highly recommend Tomas and his company! Thank you!
