  • Extremely helpful and friendly staff - let us book a tour at very short notice. The tour itself was great fun - Vid is very knowledgeable and an excellent guide. Must see in Maribor!

  • There are two entrances. One day I went in from one, the day after only the other one was open. English guide tours 15 € two glasses of wine 20 € four glasses of wine The visit to the dismissed cellar could be interesting, but I would not recommend it to a friend. The wine tasting was disappointing, but that is personal.
  • This might not be as great as the things that you’ve read about it. So much potential to be something really great (and it seems like it was in the past), but it’s passed through so many owners and hasn’t been invested in recently that it’s a bit disappointing now. Relatively new owners now and glad they’re Slovenian, but the wine is mediocre and the price of the tour is outrageous, especially given the quality and variety of the wines and how run down the building is. The staff is young and friendly and we had no trouble understanding our guide like others have complained about. She had interesting facts and did a great job serving the wine. The ownership is really the ones that have failed to make this as special as it could be. I hope they start producing better wines and/or invest in the building to have a better tour of an amazing historical site.
