Today we arrive in Koper, Slovenia. From the ship, there is already a view of the excursion buses and the city. The city is easily reachable on foot. Leaving the port area, crossing the street, and taking the elevator up. The elevator is free.View of the port area
At the port exit, several souvenir vendors and excursion providers have set up their stands. There is also a tourist information booth available. Here you can obtain a map of the city with the sights. However, we look for our tour guide. We had booked the tour 'Slovenian Riviera: Panoramic Drive and City Walk' through a German intermediary. Unfortunately, there was neither a guide on site nor reachable via the emergency number provided to us.
So we only had the option to go to the tourist information😀, grab a city map and set off totally unorganized on our own.
On Tito Square, you will find the Praetorian Palace and the Loggia

and reach the market hall. Wherever possible, we visit the market halls. Looking at and tasting the regional delicacies.

again back to the old town
Exploring the alleyways is always worth it
We reach the exit of the old town. From here, there is still the chance to take great photos of the ship.
It's time to return to the ship. It would have been more informative with the excursion program, but it was still very nice. Next time, hopefully, a bit more.
