The Postojna cave on it's own is worth the trip. The castle is unique and Luibjana is a Bijou of a town. 10/10”

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 71 reviews · 12 hours · from $141

Ljubljana, Predjama Castle, and Postojna Cave in one long day from Zagreb, with cave train rides and human fish in 9°C air.

“The organisation was outstanding and our two guides were very informative and interesting. Ljubljana is a beautiful little town where we had time to explore by ourselves after a tour around the centre. Predjama Castle is in a stunning setting and quite different to other castles I have seen. The cherry on the top was our excursion to Postojna Cave. The ride into the cave in the train was exciting as we saw more and more stalacmites, stalactites and columns. But that was nothing compared to what amazing caverns we walked through with the guide. Spectacular seems to be the best word to describe these formations.”

“We had a wonderful day with our guide Bo who was so nice and knowledgeable! Due to the weather he changed the order of sights and thank god he did because we were so lucky with the weather especially at Lake Bled. He gave us a lot of advice for sights and food spots. Its so much more comfortable going with a small group and i think this separates Pegasus with their competitions. You got a more personal and comfortable experience without breaking the bank. I will be back in spring and plan to travel with Pegasus again on to Plitvice Lakes! Bo also took us to a candy store…”
