First come, first served: why is it good to book a tour in Slovenia as soon as possible?
When choosing accommodation on both guided and self-guided tours, our first choice is smaller, family-owned hotels and B&Bs. The kind in which we feel good, too. Whenever possible, we also test this. At the end of the 2023 season, we spent the night in one of these places with our team and felt firsthand why guests often praise the Odlična hiša Štanjel as their favorite accommodation.
The owners Bojan and Iva took care of us as their family members or friends. After our teams’ internal meeting and dinner, they chatted with us long into the night. And yet, delicious smells came from the kitchen early in the morning. We really value people who make hosting a mission, not just a job. They also said that our guests – cyclists – are all great guests, friendly, grateful, unproblematic.
Keep in mind that many of the destinations we visit on our tours are small, with very limited accomodation capacities. Therefore, those of you who hurry up with bookings have a better chance of being taken care of by friendly people – like Bojan and Iva.
