This tour was such a great experience during my short stay in Slovenia. Matt was our tour guide and he was phenomenal. His safe driving and excellent explanations of what we were going to see were made the tour comfortable and enjoyable. I couldn’t say there was one stop that was a highlight for me, as I enjoyed each one. Don’t skip out on taking this day tour if staying in Ljubljana.

An absolutely amazing, jaw-dropping experience! Completely exceeded my expectations. I will definitely be back again :)
My friend and I had a wonderful day exploring Slovenia with DJ! This small group tour was a great way to see the highlights in one day. We felt like we had enough time at each stop. DJ was knowledgeable and accommodating of our individual preferences. Highly recommend!
We got picked up from our hotel at 745am and dropped back at 730pm by Samir...it was a great day albeit tiring. We saw 3 amazing places....stunning Lake Bled with the church on the island, the amazing castle built into the cave and the most anazing underground cave system Highly recommened and Samir was great with all the info, driving etc.
The sights are very special and each one amazes me. Service staff are responsible for good behavior. Indescribable!
The places were really beautiful and the guide was really friendly and nice. It's definitely worth the visit! They also offered hotel pickup and drop off so that made it really convenient :) However the schedule was a bit chaotic and not communicated very well so we always had to rush with everything.
Fantastic tour! If you want to see Slovenia's top highlights in just one day, this is the perfect trip. Lake Bled, Postojna Cave, and Predjama Castle were all absolutely stunning, and the itinerary was very well organized, making the best possible use of our time. As a lovely surprise, the agency treated us to a complimentary Bled cream cake and coffee at Bled Castle, which was a wonderful gesture and made the experience even more special. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Slovenia!
That was a great tour. Dave was very kind all day long, very punctual and always explaining in details about every stop we had. Worth visiting all places and really recommend him as your tour guide.
David was a great guide. He worked to plan around other big tours so we got to avoid some of the crowds. He was very helpful and informative. It was great to have him tell us more about the places we're visiting on the drive.
