My city tours aim to offer you a deeper understanding of Trieste’s history, culture, architecture, and its residents, both past and current.

If in doubt, do this tour. - Really excellent tour guide. He was very knowledgeable and took the trouble to find out what we were interested in. We covered a lot of historical, literary, culinary and liturgical ground, received the right amount of information and stopped whenever required. In fact Lubos went far beyond the call of duty. Unconditionally recommended.

First In Class Tour - Lubos exceeded our expectations. He was such a personable and well-prepared guide and even gave us a packet of info to take with us at the end. He shared not only the interesting historical sites but current local activities including a storefront where they displayed the traditional sandwich bread and meat. He even bought us a Trieste coffee at a traditional place. We booked in advance, which I would recommend. He planned with us where to meet that was most convenient for us, which helped us get off to a great start.

Incredible Tour - Lubos was fantastic! He is extremely knowledgeable, kind, and charismatic. The tour included all of the important sights of downtown Trieste and history from ancient times to today, all of which he is an expert on. He also showed us how locals in Trieste take their coffee, explained the city’s food culture, and gave us lots of recommendations and even a packet with information about sights, local history, and maps. We couldn’t give a higher recommendation.
