After we finnish with wine we will head directly to Piran on a scenic and comfortable ride trough picturesque Slovenian coastline. The town of Piran is the oldest Slovenian town and because of that also called the museum town. You will have up to 2 hours to explore the town at your own pace.

The biggest impact on Piran architecture was left from Venetian Republic times in 15th century so in this town you will get the impression of Venice. But the town is far less crowded and had remained the spirit trough the years. Most of the residents still live there and give this town its unique atmosphere. Whether you will go up to see the church or just sit under the statue of Giuseppe Tartini- a famous violinist born in Piran, or wonder around just by walking its narrow streets, visit the towns market or have another glass of amazing Slovenian wine at the coast you will surely fall in love with this amazingly charming old town.

We are doing our best to optimize our tours to the cruise line departure time so it is almost impossible to return back too late and miss the ship.

But still there are certain things we don`t have control over and this might happen as well.

So here we are explaining 3 possible reasons and solutions in case it happens.

  1. If we miss the ship because of our poor organization we will take you to your next port on our expense for free. We will make sure you will join your ship next morning before it comes to next port.
  2. If we miss the ship because the group or part of a group not respecting the optimized timings provided every time before any activity during the day than we will take to your next port as well but the expense will be on you. In this case you will still join your ship before it arrives to next port in the morning.
  3. If we miss the ship because of any scenario on which we or you do not have control over (heavy storm, some accident and the highway get closed for hours and we are stuck for hours, one of the passengers gets injured and had to go to the hospital….)

 In this case we will take you to your next port as well but only for the lowest possible price that will cover gas, tolls, car usage and driver. We will not take a penny extra above that.

4. Next port is most usually somewhere in Croatia (max 5 hours of drive) or Venice (2 hours of drive)
