Here are three reasons we recommend?Slovenia?for your clients and three reasons why we know you will love working with Mitja, Toma? and their fabulous team at?Roundabout Experiences ?in Slovenia.

WHY SLOVENIA?

You may, at this point, not know that much about Slovenia . At?Travel Kinship , we sought to find a partner in Slovenia because we believe it is a largely undiscovered gem that deserves more attention. We sincerely believe Slovenia could be the perfect escape and post-pandemic destination for many of your clients.

1. NATURE - OFF THE BEATEN TRACK - DIVERSE SCENERY

Slovenia offers a myriad of stunning natural destinations to explore ranging from the Alps Mountains to vast forests, lakes, caves, rivers, vineyards, farms and down to the coastline. Slovenia has much to offer clients that want to get off the beaten track and into areas of stunning natural beauty. Clients can relax in beautiful hotels and explore at a leisurely pace or take part in more active experiences such as hiking, biking, caving, zip-line, skiing and wild swimming. As clients explore at their own pace it is also a wonderful opportunity to get to know local people and communities through which they travel.

2. GASTRONOMY & WINE

Slovenia is well known for its diverse gastronomic heritage. Slovenia offers a variety of traditional dishes influenced by a mixture of Adriatic, Mediterranean and Central European cuisine and has an abundance of high-end restaurants and contemporary cuisine on offer.

Gastronomy is a huge part of the culture and an important part of tourist offer. The gastronomic and cultural diversity of Slovenia is one of the main reasons to visit. Slovenia is also known for being one of the most sustainability-oriented countries in Europe.

In 2021 Slovenia was awarded?European Region of Gastronomy , has 12 chefs awarded one or two Michelin stars and boasts the best female chef in the world 2017 -?Ana Ro? ?with her award-winning restaurant?Hi?a Franko ?which is currently listed as?38th of the world's top 50 restaurants .

"Slovenia is the only European country that connects the Alps, the Mediterranean, the Karst and the Pannonian Plain. Its exceptionally diverse landscape and nature are tied to colourful culture and gastronomy. Slovenian dishes are made with local ingredients, from produce grown in fields and gardens, to ingredients foraged in meadows and forests, salt harvested from Adriatic salt pans, honey made by native bees, wines from boutique-sized vineyards to healthy mineral waters that became the focal point of world-renowned spas centuries ago. Slovenia is a green, healthy and active country. Diverse gastronomy is, therefore, part of its culture."
