Mikaela is based in the Idrija Geopark and focuses on small group tours and custom tours that can be guided, self-guided or a mix of both.

Review of More to Explore
Mikaela’s site offers just enough details to entice and give you an idea of the types of tours she can design. Since most tours are custom, you won’t find a collection of pre-packaged itineraries, but you will see a few small group guided tours that are already scheduled and open for booking. Look at these itineraries for more details, which include the names of accommodations, culinary and cultural inclusions, and daily distances and ascents.
