    Tour guides were very nice and friendly with excellent knowledge about the region and selected tours were well chosen and adapted to our level. Accommodation was quite simple, breakfast not so good (and not too healthy for hikers) in a small village - which was authentic on the one side but if you have no car, it is a bit more difficult to move around in the later afternoon/evening. All in all an experience I don't want to miss.

    Amazing 4 day trip with Experience Slovakia. Our accommodation was lovely. Beautiful view of the Tatras. Jan drove us each day to different locations. We enjoy nature and history and both exceeded our expectations. Jan is a careful driver. Very kind and a great sense of humour. Shame we weren't able to spend more time there.
