White Horses & UNESCO Caves: Koper's Unforgettable Journey

Was a little disappointed with the Lipica horse farm. I was hoping that we would be able to see the horses performing but all we were able to see were the horses either in their stalls or in fenced areas. The caves were absolutely beautiful, so different from others that I’ve been to; however it was a grueling adventure with many steps and high walkways. I didn’t think I would make the last few steps to the top! Glad I did it.

Not only was our trip amazing, but our guide, Petra was the best!. She had such a wonderful way of sharing the ways of family in Slovenia and went out of her way to ensure our experience was a great one!

I am really glad we booked with Koper Tours. The transport was very comfortable and our guide friendly and knowledgeable. Visiting the caves first followed by lunch (paid separately) and then the Stud Farm we had a really great day lasting far longer than the advertised duration (because we we having a great time!) Our guide found a fantastic restaurant for lunch. Delicious food and wine at a very reasonable price. I'd definitely book with them again.

<p>Good tour. Well worth our time and definitely happy that we booked it. The caves are wonderful be prepared for lots of walking up and down wet, slopping paths and stairs with occasional low ceilings. The stud farm was an easy walk around the grounds and through the stables. Our driver said that he spoke only a little English, but seemed to understand everything we said. I would have liked more information about the area during the drive, but that did not take away much from the tour. The arrival process was well-organized and finding our driver was easy. After the tour, we returned back to the pier promptly.</p>

<p>Read the description of the tour very carefully. The Lipica Stud Farm entrance fee is NOT included in the price of this tour. It will cost 16 Euro additional. I didn't pay the entrance fee because I felt for what we got the Farm fee should have been included. Also when organizing your pick up time be sure to clarify the time. The local tour company said they would pick us up at 8am from the dock. We were there at 7:50am. The drive to the caves took 15 minutes but did not open until 10am. We sat at the entrance to the CAVE for one hour 45 minutes. Not even the gift shop was open. This was a complete waste of time. </p> <p>Now for the Caves, they are spectacular - nothing like I have ever seen. I would recommend seeing this UNESCO site it is breathtaking.</p>
