“We really enjoyed the day trip! Our guide was Tomaš, and he gave many insightful information along the way. He even took us to Lipica farm because we had some additional time, where we could see the famous Lipizzan horses. On the way, he drove us through Triëst (Italy), giving information on everything we saw and making the trip really special, feeling like its own event and not just transport to the next location. The van was nice, clean and had airconditioning. Tomaš knew a lot and can answer every question, which made for great conversation, also giving many helpful tips. The only down side to the day trip is…”

“It was just good, nothing extra, I've been on much better day trips. The guide was a good driver, but she didn't tell us a lot of things on history/traditions and that was a shame. The places were fine, but they could have been better. Why go to Predil lake, if Fusine lakes, located at just 5 min by car from where we were, are notoriously more beautiful, just like the guide said ? If you are a good driver and feel confident with winding mountain passes, I'd recommend to rent a car and do the tour on your own. Still, the guide was a nice person and I appreciated…”

Small-group day trip from Ljubljana to Postojna Cave by electric train and Predjama Castle, with hotel pickup, English guide, entries included.

“Our second of two tours with Matej. We chose to split this tour and the Lake Bled tour into two days over the full day option and loved both tours. Matej was a great tour guide and not only provided us with Slovenian history and background of the destinations, but some insight into Slovenian politics and changes since the Yugoslavian era. Postojna caves are incredible and the train ride within the caves is a neat experience within itself. Predjama castle is really unique and fun to explore.”

Emerald River Tour from Bled, with Vršič Pass, Soča source, tall waterfalls, optional thrills, car-train ride, and Lake Bohinj.

“We really enjoyed our day trip. It was good to see a range of places that we wouldn’t have been able to see otherwise. For us the highlight was the car-train through the mountains, as well as jumping in the Soca river (it was very cold!) and climbing to the source of the river too. We wouldn’t have been able to see the sites outside of Bled without this trip. Our guide was fantastic too. Would absolutely recommend - there’s a lot of miles covered but a lot of stops along the way!”
