I’m a licensed tour guide and would love to share my perspective on Ljubljana with you. After living in different countries and learning several languages, staying connected to people from diverse backgrounds has become very important to me. Guiding tours is a meaningful way to keep that connection alive and meet fellow travelers from around the world. With a background in arts and languages, I focus especially on Ljubljana’s vibrant cultural and artistic life. Whether you're visiting for the first time or looking to see the city from a new angle, I’d be happy to show you around.

Tour description

Step into Ljubljana’s open-air museum on a guided walk that weaves together art, architecture, and city stories. From Baroque and Neoclassical facades to elegant Art Nouveau buildings and Plečnik’s visionary designs, each corner tells a story of beauty, history, and creativity. Meet me to hear stories about the Slovenian Impressionists, poets, and sculptors who shaped the city’s cultural soul.

And because there’s no art without good food and drink, I’ll share insider tips on where to find the best local cuisine, from must-try traditional dishes to cozy spots loved by the local crowd.

We meet at the Square of the French Revolution, in front of the City Museum and Gallery Vžigalica.
