Slovenia

The trip is only recommended for people with at least some hiking experience. It needs endurance and a reasonable amount of tread certainty. It\'s an exciting hike and the more spectacular when you start the last climbing early morning at 5.00 am under a clear sky full with sparkling stars. Thanks Igor and Luca from the Mitja Sorn Team

Igor was a very nice guide. He did a good job leading our group and making sure that the slower ones were taken care of. It would have been helpful to have him lead group introductions before we got started and also provide a small briefing of the timeline, itinerary, mileage, and how meals and payments would work. In the future, it would be a good idea to ensure the registrants have experience with mountain hiking and a general level of fitness. Two members of our group were clearly unprepared for what the trek would entail. Perhaps in the future, it would be good to either have the meals at the mountain hut included in the trip cost or allow the registrants to purchase food completely separately from the guide (instead of having the guide organize this). Both the hike and the summit climb were incredible! I appreciate Igor and Luca’s patience in ensuring the safest timing for summiting, and I also appreciate Igor allowing some of the group members to run ahead when some of the others were moving slowly. Overall, it was a great trip. I would recommend this to any of my hiker friends!

Blas was great! He was really patient with us amateurs, never rushed us and even on the way down the mountain constantly slowed dow/stopped to allow everyone to catch up. For 2 people in our group Ferratas are new and they both fell in love with it! We will definitely be back and can’t wait to have Blas as our guide again!

I find it a bit awkward that all correspondence goes through a third party as it is less efficient. Once I had a guide’s email it all went smoothly

Dean is an excellent guide. He\'s friendly and conscientious and throughout or trip was focused on getting us to achieve our hiking goals while being aware of our abilities and experience. We chose a relatively tough hike (8hrs, 1,700m elevation gain) but Dean made sure we completed it safely and at a good pace. He also took photos throughout so we could concentrate on the hiking and shared them with us later. He was also good company on the hike. I would thoroughly recommend his services.

Igor and Mitja are great guides! I recommend !!! They are beautiful people.

This rating is for Igor Kremser, who ended up guiding our group. He did an amazing job and made everyone feel comfortable climbing to the peak. He also took great pictures along the way and shared them with us. All in all, a fantastic experience!

Mitja and the tour were great, we felt always safe, unfortunately the summit was in clouds but the views on the accent north face were incredible

Great adventure and Mitja is a fantastic guide! Definitely will come back

It was a great adventure and experience! Mitja is a fantastic guide and we all enjoyed the trail, even it was difficult sometimes

Great trip. Highly recommend. Pack your own liquor to the top!

It was a nice climb. All was organized in a professional way.

I don\'t properly understand Explore Share\'s role here. I just wanted to use a small local guiding company and I was forced to do booking through Explore Share. And finally third party, Kofler Sport took care of guiding. Kofler Sport and especially Greg\'s job was excellent.

My main guide Rok and his helper guide Cveto were outstanding. Both were very attentive to personal and group needs. Safety is obviously a major factor in their guiding. I would recommend them and Explore-Share for any experience they offer.

Vi havde Igor Kremser som guide. Han var meget kompetent, vidende og havde et godt humør. Både voksne og vores 2 teenagere ville vælge Igor igen til enhver tid som vores guide. Turen op på Triglav er spændene, tilpas hård og overnatningen i hytten er en oplevelse værd. Vi er glade for, at vi havde købt de ting som stod på listen vi fik tilsendt. Specielt gode støvler, vandrestave, handsker og en god rygsæk anbefales. Der står i beskrivelsen, at Igor er aspirant - tag ikke fejl han er yderst professionel og en hyggelig fyr, at tilbringe et par dage med. Vi satte stor pris på, at han hentede os i Kranjska Gora i sin bil. Vi havde overvejer om en guide var nødvendig... det gør oplevelsen meget bedre og større . Tag en tur på Triglav med Igor - du vil ikke fortryde det

We enjoyed our trip immensely. Highly recommend Rok Zalokar as as guide. Very knowledgeable and patient with our group of climbers.

Our guide was Mitja Drinavec (not Matevz Vukotic), he was very nice and responsible during the entire trip. Thank you for the great experience.

That was not the guide, to begin with. It was a very very young woman. She was not very communicative, although she replied all the questions asked by the people seating in the front row. I, at the rear, have little opportunity to actually ear anything that it was said. Even less to ask myself The tour was not so bad but obviously some stops were far more interesting than others. What I found really annoying was the company of two people (clearly not customers) who shared the tour with us, speaking one another in their language as if they were alone in the van. Customers and friends (colleagues?) should be kept apart.

To be frank we didn\'t really got what we wanted. We got Igor as a guide but he acted more of a babysitter rather than a true guide for us. The climb up to Triglav is not safe and we wanted a guide to ease the planning bc we didn\'t have enough time to prepare, and maximize safety while keeping our wishes in focus. We are not the easiest folks to guide as we are used to do stuff on our own. The guide does a good job if your only concern is safety and you\'re willing to blind trust people and not asking questions. He will drag you to the top and back. One big mistake he did, he never asked what we expected he never gave directions, or explanations, we only got to follow instructions and got short answers when we asked. We needed to challenge him at the end to get what we wanted and then he wasn\'t happy about it. We understand why, but we needed something else than we got until that point. The other thing is that we had an unfriendly guide in a hurry on the way down from the hut, day2. For us that hike would have been better without him. When it\'s said he did everything he was expected to do by himself fine (apart from day2), nice service at the hut and otherwise.

Hi, We had a great climb with Matevz on the Hanz route - we knew we were in good hands and he kept a good pace and made sure we were taken care of on the way up. The climb was quite steep and a little scary but it helped knowing we were secured by a rope so an exhilirating day overall. We loved it!

We can’t say enough great things about this trek. Mitja, our guide, was incredible, we would not have made it up without him. The whole experience was beyond expectations. I would wholeheartedly recommend this trek to others. Thank you for helping to make our trip so memorable!

One of the best organised trips I have been on. Mitja was very experienced and nothing was too much trouble for him. Responses to emails/texts were very prompt.

We were looking for a hike suitable for 4 adults with reasonable experience in hiking.Dean not only crafted a 5 day activity for us but was also able to adjust for routes to fit our needs during the hike itself. Dean proved to be a great guide with both knowledge and an amazing attitude and was simply so much fun to be with, Dean also went \'the extra mile\' for us taking some of us to special activities which we did not plan for. If you are looking for hiking in Slovenia and getting an experience of a life time - I would highly recommend Dean. 5 starts all the way (And if there 6 he would get them as well :) ) Dean, thank you so much !

Loved Slovenia and would highly recommend for those who enjoy the outdoors and walking. The via ferrata route was great for a morning hike. Stunning views and not too hard which was good given the heat that day. Our guide Borut (replaced by Gregor at the last minute as I had misjudged our dates so very much appreciated it) was lovely and made our trip even better.

Dean was prompt and super knowledgeable about the area we were going to. He guided us safely to Slemenova Spica to enjoy the Julian Alps. As two girls from the city, we don\'t have much hiking experience, and he was patient and super helpful. We enjoyed our trip so much and it has been the highlight of our Slovenia trip. Thanks once again, Dean, for taking us on this experience!

Great experience and great professional guide.

Our trip to the summit with guide Blaz was amazing! We had no experience but that did not matter at all. We had a great time, Blaz made us laugh and took us safely to the summit and back. Blaz was always in touch with the meteorologists and could tell what the weather was gonna do so he kept us out of thunder storms. One of the best things we have ever done. Thank you so much for this great experience!

Luka was an amazing guide. He was able to both challenge our son, who is an experienced rock climber, but also give my spouse and I the encouragement we needed to have a great time for our first day of outdoor climbing. I highly recommend him!

Mitja was fantastic!!! Very proffesional and obviously very knowlegeable in the area and the climb. He was very patient with me being a beginner in climbing and helpful when I was having difficulty in parts of the track. I feel like we could not have chosen a better guide. A great guy as well. We did have a little issue with the start time/date of our hike. I’m not sure if that was to do with the timezone in the southern hemisphere when we booked our climb. Thanks for the unforgettable experience. Mary and Mick

We first hesitated to take a guide. We are both young fit people but don\'t have experience in hiking a mountain. But wauw were we glad we had Mitja! He made sure we were safe the whole time (and that wasn\'t always a giving (thunder storm aproaching, snow so we coudn\'t secure ourselves on the mountain,..). We did things we couldn\'t have done if we hadn\'t had Mitja with us. Great experience. Wish we could take him to all our mountain trips!

Great guide, great weather and thus a wonderful experience! Thanks Luka :)

Climbing with Mitja was such a great experience! There was still some snow on the mountain and there had been strong thunderstorms the day before we left, however Mitja was very reassuring and kept in regular contact leading up to the trip re details and weather forecast. We felt 100% safe trekking with him, and had the most amazing time!

Our day with Jan and Youna (I\'m definitely spelling their names wrong, sorry) went very well, he made sure to check our skill level and chose climbs based on it. He also offered tips on how to tackle climbs and was very attentive to our safety. A great plus is helping us take photos with his amazing camera. Great day out on the rocks!

Unfortunately the conditions were too tough to climb Mount Triglav but Mitja suggested a great alternative trip which challenged us and gave us an unforgettable experience in the Slovenian mountains! Highly recommend Mitja as a guide - he was one of the main reasons that we enjoyed the trip so much and we always felt safe in his hands. Overall an unforgettable experience and would highly recommend to anyone out there looking for a challenge.

We cant do the climb with the bad weather. The explore share team and Mitja answer at your question very quickly and they are friendly. Sad to not do the climb but good service !

Mitja was an amazing Guide,so glad my son and I chose him to do this winter climb. Mitja has so much knowledge about the climb and his expertise is valuable. We felt safe at all times and Mitja continuously provided encouragement and advice. Would recommend Mitja to anyone looking for a guide

We would like to thank you very much, for the patience and great efforts of Mr. Klemen with our kid. It was a great experience.

Booking the guide was a simple process. Having a guide on the mountain climb and experiencing the mountains in those conditions was the highlight of the trip. I would recommend to anyone going to Slovenia. Thanks.

Dean is a super experienced guide, he is very qualified to do all sorts of mountineering too if you are interested to try. I had a good time learning how to do snow shoeing and he is very patient in teaching me and assessing my abilities to suggest different routes which is suitable for my build and stamina. It was great and safe to have him as a guide because he knows the terrain well and that is good to know.

We had an amazing time. Our guide gave us many information about the regions flora and fauna. Even though the sight at the very top wasn\'t so good this day, the climb up was vey exciting. Thanks a lot.
