Testimonials

“My husband and myself thoroughly enjoyed our fall trip to Slovenia and Croatia.  In Slovenia we used Luka as our tour guide for the week and we were not disappointed.  He arranged a varied and interesting itinerary and was a pleasure to be with.  My husband and I were very interested in photography and Luka suggested great places to get just the right shot, brought an extra tripod for my husband and allowed us ample time to take gorgeous photos.  We especially enjoyed visiting the Istria region and the custom truffle hunt and wine tasting he arranged.  Our time with him went according to plan and he was quite knowledgeable about the places we visited.  We would definitely use him again.”

“I really had a good time on the tour and really enjoy applying what you taught me when I take pictures now.  You are a great teacher!  We certainly look forward to taking another trip with you in the future!”
Jenny Haggard, Munich, Germany.

“Just wanted to send you a note to let you know how much I enjoyed the day in the Soca Valley…and actually every day I spent in Slovenia (even the rainy ones) was truly amazing.
I learned quite a bit (you can thank Dan as well). I was afraid to mess with any of the settings on my camera prior to our meeting. During the rest of my vacation, I was playing with the camera quite a bit.”

“The last two weeks have been a wonderful learning and most enjoyable experience and we appreciate your guidance and leadership. We return home with a deep appreciation of and fondness for Slovenia and its people. We hope to greet you in Washington.”

“What can I say about Luka other than the fact that all of my tour guests have really enjoyed him as their guide. To start with, his skills with a camera are quite apparent. His sense of humor and energy make him an ideal person to show you around Slovenia. That outgoing personality coupled with his extensive knowledge of Slovenia and a real sense of enthusiasm for his country is a perfect combination for those interested in getting more out of their travels than just seeing the standard tourists sights.”

“Independent travel is hard work, but not if you do some research before you leave home. We (four of us from Australia) toured Croatia and Slovenia and to get the most out of our trip, used local guides in each area we visited. We found an excellent guide in Ljubljana, Luka Esenko, who not only showed us around the city but drove us to off the beaten track towns like Ptuj. Nothing was too much trouble for this young man who has an intimate knowledge of the area so we got the most out of our three day stay. He knew the places of interest and also where to eat wherever we were. To top off our stay he arranged for us to attend a Folk evening with delicious local food.”
Lyle and Marg Cooper, Australia.

“I really appreciated Luka’s knowledge of the area and his passion for photography. It is great to have a guide who understands the importance of lighting and who is willing to get up early to capture the early morning lighting. Without his guidance there were many great shots that I would not have captured. We visited the most wonderful non-tourist places I never heard before – what a beautiful country! Thanks for a great trip Luka, and I hope to meet you again in the future.”
Andrew King, Ireland.

“Thank you for your email – yes we got back safely to Sydney after a short stop over in Singapore for a couple of days to break the long haul trip home. Back to work last Wednesday and back to reality!
Your photos of the Plitvice lakes are superb and thanks to you even I managed to get many beautiful shots of Croatia! Anyway, just wanted to say many thanks for the great trip and your expertise knowledge of your country is outstanding. We both really enjoyed your company.”
Gill M. Watkins, Australia.

“Luka, wanted to thank you again for the amazing trip. You had a major part in turning this into a trip to remember Slovenia is amazing country! Everything is so green and fresh… And Ljubljana is lovely city, my wife and the children really enjoyed it!”
