Beautiful castle. - This was a wonderful tour. The castle is beautiful as well as the gardens. Go early as it gets crowded fast. And be prepared to walk a lot. Our guide was wonderful.

Must see in Trieste - Miramare Castle was beautiful both inside and out and the weather was equally beautiful. Dean was a great guide.

The Perfect Experience for Trieste and Slovenia - Incredible experience and day tour in Trieste with our tour guide Dean. Day started out with a trip to Miramare castle where Dean gave us a concise history of Emperor Maximilian and his life and the overall history of Trieste. After we went to the castle of San Giusto to see some of the city’s highlights we realized we had some time left over, we asked Dean if we could fit in a trip to Koper, Slovenia. He said absolutely and a short trip to Koper turned into a beautiful journey along the Slovenian coastline. We saw Piran, Koper, Isola, and several other small coastal Slovenian cities. The point is , Dean and Koper Trips are an excellent team that is willing to accommodate its customers. With Trieste as your base, you can see the city, Slovenia, and more with this company. I can’t recommend them enough! We will be back to tour with them again. Thank you for your hospitality, Dean 5/5 stars!

Beautiful - Only visited the Castello di Miramare grounds and can highly recommend!! The Castello is located on a stunning promontory with views over the Gulf of Trieste. The extensive grounds are well kept and beautiful. When we visited there was plenty of parking available in the nearby car parks with a short walk up a stairway to the grounds. There is a cafe with toilet facilities in the grounds for coffee breaks.

Lovely adventure - We had booked this tour after our cruise line changed our itinerary to include a stop in Trieste. The morning of the tour our guide, awesome guy named Matt, said he had another family book a tour of Kopor, Slovenia (just a short 30 minutes away) and his boss asked to combine it. So, Matt talked with all of us, this included me, my wife and 22 year old daughter, and a mom and her two 20’s daughters. He came up with a spontaneous way to create a tour to include most of each. Not what we had planned but turned out to be a lovely adventure that included seeing the castle, an beautiful church on the mountain, and a trip through Slovenia and lunch in a little village in Croatia! Three countries in a day! Matt rocks, and our tour mates we so wonderful! Made for a great day!

The guide should know his subject - What a very nice tour guide, however his ability to answer questions was limited. He provided commentary during the tour and was very attentive to us. He treated us all with respect and helped us as needed. However, when we were in Trieste - actually he didn't tour Trieste at all - I asked him one question and he said he didn't know anything about Trieste because he lived in Slovenia and we should go there and he could give us a good tour. That was very disappointing. If you are going to have someone, give a tour of someplace then that person should know about it. Also, my ticket said I would be picked up at my hotel, but the email said at a central spot. It was very confusing what was to happen and the customer support I had in reference to this was not good. I am not the only one on this tour that had this complaint.
