Program
We will make the first stop in the small town of Murska Sobota, the heart of the region called Prekmurje, a Slovenian province which was under the Hungarian rule until 1920. In Murska Sobota we will show you a castle with a regional museum inside the castle. Before we head out of the town we will show you a place where the Republik of Prekmurje an unrecognized state was proclaimed in 1919.
As Prekmurje is also famous for its delicious food, we will see a place where they ripen the traditional Prekmurje ham. Of course we will try few slices of ham and some other specialities. We will continue our excursion to the nearby village Martjanci, where we will see its parish church, built in 1392 dedicated to Saint Martin, from which the village gets its name.
We will pass through settlement Moravske toplice, known for its spas, and stop for a coffee & chocolate in a nearby coffee shop.

If we will have time we will visit a tropical “jungle” with over 900 exotic plants
We will spend the rest of the day in Lendava, a border town with Hungary, famous for its spas, Jewish heritage and vineyards. Finally we will visit a small wine producer where you can taste some local wines. Drive back to the starting point.
