Slovenia in One Day: Small-Group Bled, Postojna Cave & Predjama

The Slovenia in One Day tour, running small-group from Ljubljana since 2011: Lake Bled, Postojna Cave, and Predjama Castle in one day, with a licensed local guide and no more than 8 guests. One day, three of Slovenia's best-known places! You'll glide across Lake Bled on a traditional pletna boat to the island church, ride the underground train deep into Postojna Cave, and stand beneath Predjama Castle, built improbably into a cliff face. Between the sights, there's time to walk the lakeshore, taste the famous Bled cream cake, and hear the stories your local guide grew up with. Because the group stays small, up to 8 in a comfortable van rather than a big coach, the day stays relaxed and bends to what your group feels like. Admissions like the cave, the boat, and the castles are optional, so you only pay for the stops you choose, and we share the prices upfront. Run by Slovenia Explorer, an official Gray Line Slovenia licensee.

UNESCO Škocjan Caves & Piran from Ljubljana (small group, max 8)

A small-group day tour from Ljubljana to the UNESCO-listed Škocjan Caves and the Venetian coastal town of Piran, with a licensed local guide and no more than 8 guests. In a country with thousands of caves, Škocjan is the one we take our visiting friends to. You walk through an underground canyon carved by the Reka river, across a footbridge set almost 50 metres above the water, through halls large enough to hold a cathedral. It is UNESCO-listed, and far quieter than Slovenia's busier show caves, which is exactly why we chose it for this route. On the way to the coast, you stop at Socerb Castle, perched on the edge of the Karst plateau with the whole Gulf of Trieste below. Then Piran, five centuries of Venice in one compact old town: narrow lanes, Tartini Square, the little harbour, time for a seafood lunch by the water, and in the summer months, enough free time for a swim in the Adriatic. Your guide knows which konoba is worth your hour.

Ljubljana private walking tour with a local

This tour is definitely different for many reasons: - it is run by locals and locals only. We are not only licensed tour guides but have also lived in Ljubljana for decades and know the city like our own pocket. - most of the guides have high formal education, and are glad to explain more also about economy, art, politics, contemporary social issues and how people of Slovenia live today. - the tour is a private tour. Which means we dedicate our time and knowledge to you and to you only. It also means you do not have to share the attention and squeeze with 30 other tourists, which often happens at "free" or other non-private tours. - we are aware of negative impacts of tourism on local environment. We will always present you locally made products and not products of multinational companies and will introduce you to sustainable tourism practices in Ljubljana. - the tour can be customized. - we will not bore you with numbers and years of every laid brick. The tour is also fun :).
