Fabio is an attentive and precise guide. He explained many of the better known points of interest and enriched the tour with lots of other detailed info. We walked the length and breadth of Ljubljana and went up to the Castle by a real local's way. Recommended for those who have little time and want to discover Ljubljana on foot
