Elbrich was very knowledgeable about the history of the area of Trieste and the surrounding wine country. She went above and beyond to show us the highlights even though the weather was bad. She is a terrific driver, safe and courteous. We felt very safe. I believe her to be the best tour guide we have ever had. Thank you for a wonderful day!

We booked this tour with Explore Friuli. It was absolutely fantastic. We toured the city of Trieste, visited Miramare Castle and finished with a wonderful wine tour and tasting in the beautiful Collio area. Elbrich is a very pleasant, knowledgeable guide (excellent English) who explained the interesting history of Trieste and Miramare. The drive through the hilly Collio region was beautiful. It was a great way to spend a day. We enjoyed our time with Elbrich and would definitely recommend this tour!
