24 Hours in PREKMURJE

1 NIGHT INCENTIVE / 24 INCENTIVE HOURS IN PREKMURJE

Jul 25, 2015

Prekmurje, the most exciting part of Slovenia, is set in the Pannonian plain and is an area where you can experience the feelings and joyfulness, as well as the travails, of the “people from the plains”.

As the Prekmurje inhabitants live a good distance from central Slovenia, they tend to be even more welcoming when they do get a visit. Our “Gibanica” (Prekmurian layer cake) programme is a combination of Prekmurian melody, outstanding cuisine, a modern business environment and a wide range of various incentive programmes.
