Overview

This tour is the perfect way to get to know Slovenia’s hidden natural treasures & improve your photography skills. Spend a day with Jost Gantar, a professional landscape photographer who will take you to his favourite photo spots in Slovenia and share with you the tips & tricks to create some jaw-dropping pictures.

This is NOT a tour with a fixed itinerary. We always do it differently and it all depends on your wishes, how much are you willing or able to walk and of course the weather & the time of the year.

We are searching for the best possible light, which usually means making an early start to catch the sunrise or stay out late to capture the sunset or the ‘blue hour’. In between, we will explore rivers and waterfalls, do some short walks to great viewpoints, talk & learn about photography and of course get to know Slovenia, its landscape, history, traditions, and some authentic local dishes!

“My friend and I were interested in a photography tour of Slovenia. Miha at Slotrips was happy to customize a private tour just for us. He was not available to take us personally, so he arranged for a professional photographer, Jost, to guide us, which was perfect. Communication was great - we were even able to reschedule the tour to a a different day last minute because of weather concerns, and Jost was kind enough to even take care of renting tripods for us. We did a sunrise-to-sunset tour, which made for a very long day, but we got to see so many gorgeous sights. Highlights included sunrise over Lake Bled, a shepherd's hut in the Julian Alps, shooting from behind a magnificent waterfall, the Soca River, and much more. All for an extremely reasonable price. I highly recommend Slotrips if you're looking to see some of Slovenia's most beautiful scenery!”
