TESTIMONIALS

  I was with Luka and some like minded individuals on the winter 2022 workshop. Despite C19 putting a spanner in the works for the 2021 workshop that I was... read more meant to be on, the communication from Luka and his team was excellent and it was an easy decision to wait for the situation to settle and prepare myself for a great tour. Mainly focussed around the Julian Alp region, the workshop showed us some glittering sights of Slovenia, and as a host Luka was magnificent. The locations were exceptional, and with the constant changes of weather conditions Luka’s knowledge of the area and subject prevailed by having a flexible itinerary in order to capture the best places for the conditions. Whether it be trekking to frozen lakes, riding the dawn gondola with the ski resort’s supplies to catch the best sunrise, or going to small restaurants for the best Carniolian sausage Luka is your man! Would hesitate to recommend a workshop regardless of skill level or gear, as there wasn’t a hint of ego from anyone on the workshop.

  This is the second time that I'm joining Luka's team in about a year apart. The first time was Fall 2018 and the second time in Winter 2020. ... read more I got such wonderful and amazing experiences in both tours. Both seasons offered unique and interesting landscape. In Fall 2018, I was with Andrej. He has a wonderful personality, easy-going and humorous. So the days were never boring. The tour was well organized efficiently and we went out for shooting in the best possible conditions. Everything was timed perfectly and we never missed a good opportunity. That was the trip that I had realized how beautiful the landscape is in Slovenia. So I booked Winter in Slovenia 2020 and joined Luka. He is also excellent and full of knowledge of the country and landscape of Slovenia. He worked hard to find us the best weather conditions throughout the days by checking the web-cams and driving us there to the locations. What surprises me is he also has a sense of humor. So working with either Luka or Andrej will never bore you throughout the day. The accommodations and food are so wonderful. People are friendly, warm and welcoming especially the guest house by Lake Bled. They had prepared us home-made cooking on every meal! I had a feeling of coming home after a day of shooting. Usually, I never have such feeling when staying in a hotel. I had also booked subsequent extensions to Croatia, Austria and Dolomites. They were equally outstanding as the main tour. I have so many great photos from each tour that it takes me months to process.

I have such an amazing experience with both tours that I will definitely recommend to anyone. The photography guides are outstanding and excellent! Accommodations are cozy and comfortable. Great food and service throughout. Luka is my #1 go-to photography workshop in Slovenia, no-doubt about it! In fact, I'm planning to go back a third time. 🙂

For two widely-travelled Australians this tour was a revelation as we came to appreciate the beauty of the Slovenian landscape, the spectacular Plitvice Lakes and Krka National Park and cities of Split and Dubrovnic. What we appreciated most was Luka's ability to get us to the right location at the right time.

  We loved our photo tour with Esenko Workshops in Winter 2019. Not only does Slovenia offer many many magical scenes, the food and accommodation were fantastic too. We... read more felt at home with Luka our tour leader. We are so happy that we chose Esenko tours, there were a pleasure to deal with from our initial enquiry to our tour. We thoroughly recommend Luka and his team for anyone wanting to capture the magic of Slovenia.

  I have traveled extensively with Esenko Workshops in Croatia, Slovenia (twice), Italy (Dolomites), and Austria.
