Tina grew up in Kranj, in the heart of Slovenia's mountainous region, so it's no surprise that the outdoors has always been her constant companion. Once a four-legged hiking buddy, Finn, showed up in her life, and they pursued his SAR certification together, her love for hiking grew exponentially. Although Slovenian peaks are her first love, the neighboring Dolomites have stolen her heart. Each year, she returns to explore new views and corners there.

About Us
As with every great thing out there, we started out small – with a close-knit group of young, enthusiastic Slovenians who loved nothing more than spending their days in nature.
In a country that provides incredible hiking trails around every corner, it was easy to gather a team of people who are passionate about sharing the beauty of our homeland with the world.
How We Began
At the very beginning, our World Discovery hiking team consisted of outdoor enthusiasts striving to ensure that everyone who comes to Slovenia has a truly authentic and transformative experience.
By 2021, we became the number one agency organizing hiking tours in this European hidden gem, working with every IFMGA-certified mountain guide in the country. We’ve managed tours for everyone – from solo travellers, beginners and larger groups to adventurers looking to ascend our highest mountain, Triglav.

About Our Team
The demand for our tours grew with every satisfied review, and we knew we were doing something right. It was time to venture out and look for new trails to explore.
We decided that taking our favourite trails from around the world and creating new tours for our clients was the best way to go. We all had our favorites – from the peaks and lakes of the Dolomites to Austrian pastures, Swiss Alps and the iconic Mont Blanc – and bringing those to life was the natural next step.
New trails and tours came with a new workload, and even though we’d already covered more than half of Europe by the end of 2022, we went out looking for people with experiences that complement ours.
It was our goal to bring on people that had explored different places across the globe, provided insight into a variety of destinations and, most importantly, share our passion for hiking.
We recruited a diverse group of hikers – from those who have the ins and outs of remote trails under their belt to those who prefer leisurely hikes while exploring historic towns. Now, every one of our members has something unique to offer.

With their help and insight, we branched out at the beginning of 2023, now covering 4 continents and offering more than 250 diverse hiking tours!
Our team became so big we had to move our operations to a bigger office space in Ljubljana, this time with a spectacular view of the mountains from our desks.
Now, without further ado, we are happy to introduce you to the people (and our four-legged companion!) dedicated to making your hiking holidays unforgettable!
Meet the Team

Tina – COO

Klemen – Lead Travel Agent
Klemen has loved adrenaline sports since he was a youth. What started as mountain biking adventures around his locale in Škofja Loka grew into tougher challenges on the bike and eventually even climbing and mountaineering. Not everybody can pride themselves on having climbed in Yosemite National Park, Canada, or the Dolomites. Klemen is no stranger to Slovenia's challenging multi-pitch climbing routes either, and he doesn't plan on slowing down.

Anja – Travel Agent
Anja's journey into the mountains shifted from occasional visits to genuine love. A rock-climbing course also inspired her to join her friends on climbing and bouldering day trips and weekend getaways. Though she says she prefers the warmth of sunsets, she'll begrudgingly wake up for sunrises if there's coffee involved! Her little secret is that she hasn't summited Triglav yet, so her license as a 'true Slovenian' is still pending.

Lan – Travel Agent
When he was seven, Lan reached the summit of Triglav with his father, and the experience cemented his love for the mountains. He is still chasing that feeling today, on foot or his touring skis. In addition to his passion for hiking, Lan is an enthusiastic boulderer and a certified sport climbing coach. After work, he often dedicates his time to managing a local bouldering gym in Ljubljana and sharing his knowledge with others.

Samo – Travel Agent
Samo's love for the mountains started in his childhood, sparked by the books of Slovenian alpinists like Tomaž Humar and Silvo Karo. He found their Himalayan adventures so inspiring that he dedicated himself to summiting the Slovenian Alps. During his college years, he made his first ascents as an alpinist, which brought him closer to his childhood idols. These days, he devotes his time to trail running but remains a frequent visitor of the mountains.

Sara – Travel Agent
Sara has loved the outdoors for as long as she can remember. She adores sharing her passion for hiking and exploration with others, bringing them along for adventures, and creating memories with the ones she loves most. After sharing her love of exploring new trails and chasing views with her boyfriend for years, they are now passing on their love of the outdoors to their baby girl, who joins them on their adventures.

Tilen – Head of Marketing
"Beautiful moments" is what Tilen says he's looking for in the mountains. Early on, he came across Kilian Jornet. Inspired by his light mountaineering and trail running, he signed up for his first trail-running races. Aside from that, he tackled the Slovenian Mountain Trail within a month with his girlfriend. They continued their adventures on Walker's Haute Route and are already planning new feats.

Matevž – Head of Product Development
Initially introduced to the mountains by his parents, Matevž found his own way back to them during high school after summiting Triglav with his friends. After he read the mountaineering book “Pot” by the Slovenian alpinist Nejc Zaplotnik, hiking grew into alpinism, and he joined the Rašica mountaineering club in Ljubljana and attended their year-long mountaineering school. Today, the mountains remain where he feels most at home.
Iva – Product Developer
If you've ever received an email from us, chances are it was from Iva. Raised in the Soča Valley, with the Julian Alps practically her backyard, Iva’s passion for the mountains runs deep. Hiking is in her DNA, thanks to a family that’s been hiking for generations. When she’s not crafting hiking tours or scaling summits, she’s either painting or introducing her Australian partner (from the flattest continent on Earth!) to the wonders of mountain life.

Gloria – Product Developer
For Gloria, hiking isn't necessarily about conquering peaks. Since heading on hikes with her family as a child, she valued the peace of being in nature. She prefers hiking as a way to explore new places at a more relaxed pace. Although she enjoys trails that include historic sites and offer stunning views, she's mostly looking forward to good food along the way and catching a beautiful sunset to add to her collection.

Finn
Hungry for our lunch leftovers and hikes with his owner, the office dog Finn is our key member. As a certified Search and Rescue (SAR) dog, his adorable snout is not only trained to sniff out who brought snacks to the office but also to help find those who wandered off the trail. Always full of energy, he loves exploring the world. His proudest achievement was strutting around at an elevation of over 3000 meters on Maltatal.
