Organised guided tours are immensely convenient. You do not have to plan your journey yourself. You do not have to worry about keeping track of timetables or checking various pieces of key information that will make your day trip easier. However, you still have to adapt the tour’s schedule and other people in your group, so in that respect, guided tours, especially shorter ones, can feel somewhat restricting. But they certainly do not have to.

Miles of Smiles gives you absolute control of where you want to go, what you want to see, and when. It is basically your customisable day-tour of any part of Slovenia. This is how it works:

Image you want to visit the famous Lake Bled and spend the day sightseeing and enjoying its spellbinding surroundings. But you want to do it on your own terms. Miles of Smiles has a private local guide who doubles as your chauffeur. He or she will drive you to your pre-chosen destination, help you sort out any entries, restaurant reservations and the likes, as well as give you a private guided tour of the place. All you have to do is pick a destination (or multiple ones) and state your wishes a day in advance, so that we can assign the best expert for that particular part of Slovenia.

Since it is a day-long adventure, the services are limited to a maximum of 300 kilometres, and you have up to 10 hours at your disposal. Given Slovenia’s exceptional diversity and extremely short transfer times, you do not have to worry about missing out on anything. Your fully customizable excursion will place any attractions you would like to visit in the palm of your hand, while your private guide supplies you with any information on-the-go. Our guides are passionate travellers with a broad knowledge of Slovenia, so never hesitate to ask anything. Whatever tickles your fancy, we will do our utmost to accommodate your needs. You are always in the best of hands. Let the adventure begin!

We had the most wonderful guide - Tine - we cannot recommend him highly enough. We were picked up near the train station in Venice at 9am promptly, and it was a smooth and beautiful drive into Slovenia. We had lunch at a delicious lake-side restaurant in Bled, then took a pletna over to Bled Island, where we had time to hike the trail around the perimeter and also do a complete tour of the beautiful little church and tower. Tine then whisked us to the other side of the lake for a tour of Bled Castle, the oldest in the country, which houses a small demonstration printing press and museum. In addition, our kids had seen the alpine slide at Straza Hill snaking down the mountain across the lake from the castle, and Tine fit it into the schedule as a surprise addition - such fun! He was so accommodating and kind. We were back in Venice for dinner just a little after 8. A fantastic introduction to Slovenia and we can't wait to return for a longer visit!

Nejc was our guide. He went out of his way to ensure we had an enjoyable day. Very knowledgeable guide. We visited Vintgar Gorge, Vogel by cable car, Triglaw NP, Savica Waterfall and Bohinj Lake where we also took a boat cruise. It was a fantastic day. We were lucky enough to be the only 2 on the tour and we did everything at our own pace. Nejc, thank you for a wonderful day, it was a pleasure spending time with you and getting to know you.
