Return Details

Returns to original departure point
Your adventure begins with a convenient pickup from your central Ljubljana hotel or other meeting point. After a brief introduction with your guide and fellow travelers, settle in to your comfortable minivan and set off for the journey to your first point of interest. Admire the views from your window as you travel into Slovenia’s green hillsides.

First up: Lake Bled, an emerald lake surrounded by dramatic mountains. After a brief stroll, board an apletna (a Slovenian wooden boat) and journey to the tiny island in the center of the lake—Solvenian’s only island. Explore the island as your guide reveals its fascinating and quirky history, while pausing for photos along the way.

After, it’s a quick drive to the Vintgar Gorge, a must see. This stunning canyon is known for its grand walls that rise 330 feet (100 meters) into the sky. Nearby you’ll discover Šum, a beautiful waterfall that drops 85 feet (26 meters). Enjoy lunch on your own (additional expense) before heading to Bohinj, Slovenia’s largest glacial lake. Take advantage of free time to rent a canoe (own expense) or to swim in the lake’s cerulean waters.

Before the tour winds to a close, stop at the town of Škofja Loka, which has a fairytale castle and the oldest bridge in Central Europe. Take some time to explore the quaint town and take some photos as the sun begins to set. You tour ends back at the starting point.

Well-paced and informative
Leslie_B

We had limited time in Slovenia and wanted to experience as much as possible. I was a little hesitant to book so many sights in one day tour; but this tour was well-paced and provided ample time to enjoy each of the experiences. Our guide was excellent!

Excellent tour that exceeded all expectations. Our guide, Boris, was very kind and informative, and he kept everyone engaged and interested throughout the day. He was an exceptional guide, and made the day very enjoyable. The sights that we say were very beautiful, and we had plenty of time to explore each location. Highly recommend

Our guide Urban was an excellent tour guide giving good information with a sense of humour. The main sites we saw included gorgeous Lake Bled, glacial Lake Bohinj, Vintgar Gorge and Skofja Loka, a charming non-touristy village. Lovely day.

Good tour (with sour end)
Thom W
, Oct 2019
Our tour—just 3 of us—was fine. Bled didn’t disappoint. The day ended on a sour note when we all 3 misunderstood our instructions from the driver:guide, Valentina. At the gorge, she told us to either walk to the last bridge then turn around and come back, or she would meet us at the end. We opted to meet her at the end, altho she didn’t explain clearly that that meant we’d walk 30 minutes on a dusty, hilly road away from the river. We eventually had to call the office to get picked up. Valentina seemed frustrated with us, even though all 3 of us felt that the instructions were unclear. She never took responsibility and never apologized. She even told us we were the first group to do this, making us feel even more stupid. (And we were not a stupid group!). In the end, we made it back safe. Lesson learned: Don’t give confusing “options” that can be misconstrued, and apologize when your customers are unhappy.

Almost 11 hrs of touring. Our tour guide Primus (hope I got the name correct) was exceptionally good. It was a small group just 5 of us. Had an awesome day!

Lake Bled is beautiful and the walk to the waterfalls was amazing. When in Lake Bled be sure to get the Cream Cake, delicious. I would recommend this tour when in Slovenia.

Astonishing places

Urban was the best guide ever. With a great sense of humor and the detailed info he gave about Slovenia he made the tour special. Lake Bled is stunning but Lake Bohinj and Vintgar Gorge are just out of this World. I do however think that for the price of the tour, at least one attraction should be included, as there are extra 15 euros for the castle, 9 for Vintgar Gorge and 11 for the boat ride to Bled Island (optional but not to miss). I would also suggest more time at the Castle and Lake Bohinj.
