Where to begin. Dean is awesome. Punctual, kind, informative and accommodating. He picked us up at our hotel, took us to Motovun Forest for truffle hunting, then to Motovun town to eat, drink, and explore. We had extra time and he used every minute for us, including a surprise stop in Rovinj. The entire day he answered our questions and shared history about everything we were seeing and doing. It was a fantastic day we will never forget.
