    5.0· 8 reviews

    Five hours cycling from Koper to Piran, visiting Izola, Strunjan, and scenic coastal views, with stops in charming towns along the Parenzana trail.

    The ride was delightful and accessible for anyone who enjoys cycling. It included a variety of rail-to-trail paths, bike trails, and bike lanes. The views were stunning, and the new Elan e-bikes were in top shape. Everyone we met at the bike company was friendly and supportive.Elaine_D
  3. Truffle hunting and cooking experience in Istria, Koper3

    3. Truffle hunting and cooking experience in Istria

    5.0· 46 reviews· 3 hours

    Half-day truffle hunting and cooking session — hunt with a professional, make Istrian pasta with fresh truffles, paired with local Malvasia wine.

    We were fortunate to have a private tour. The truffle hunter and his dog were remarkable, and the host effectively translated everything. Watching the hunt was delightful, with the dog finding three truffles. Afterwards, we were welcomed into her beautiful home, where she served a lovely meal featuring small plates of garden-fresh cheese, meat, and vegetables. We enjoyed the meal on her inviting outdoor terrace. She also prepared a delicious pasta with truffles. Her expertise on truffles was impressive, and we gained valuable insights. We strongly recommend this tour.Mary_S
