The 10 Best Multi-day Tours in Ljubljana, Upper Carniola Region

October 14, 2021 Fernanda Pittenger

Slovenia, wedged between Austria and Italy, has always been proud of its unique heritage. The capital, Ljubljana, is a perfect example of this blend of German, Mediterranean, and Slovenian culture. The old town is a blend of Baroque, Renaissance, and Art Nouveau buildings, watched over by a medieval castle. Cut through the gardens of Tivoli Park to the National Museum of Contemporary History for a history of modern Slovenia, featuring crumbled statues of Stalin and a recreation of a WWI trench.

We hired Adam at the last second to take us to Plivitce lakes for the day. He was super flexible with timing given that we booked the tour the night before at 11 pm. Adam was a great conversationalist and we enjoyed learning about his experiences during our 2 hour drive to the lakes. He was helpful in showing us around and gave great local suggestions of places to try in Zagreb.

We did this Balkans tour in November last year (2019). It's great that this Tour Company only books small numbers on these tours - there were only 5 of us in the mini van so it was very comfortable. Alex was our guide. He was excellent - very informative, attentive, and you could tell he genuinely wanted to do anything possible to ensure we all got the most out of our trip. He was also open to itinerary changes that suited our group, which meant that even though it was a group tour it still felt very personliased and flexible. We loved all the countries and sites we got to visit. You can tell this Tour Company has spent a lot of time making sure the itinerary is interesting, and that their customers get to see as much as possible in a short amount of time. The hotels have also been carefully selected - they were all in central locations and high quality hotels. Overall this was an excellent tour - great communication leading up to the trip, an excellent guide, fantastic itinerary and hotels, and very good value for money. We would highly recommend Guided Europe Tours to anyone interested in visiting the Bulkans.

The scenery throughout the rafting tour was breathtaking and it wasn't physically demanding at all. It is family-friendly. The staff was extremely friendly, helpful, experienced, and professional. Booking the tour was a breeze and the food was really good too (we opted for the barbeque packet). Would definitely recommend to everyone! Can't wait to go on it again in the future

We enjoyed the hidden secrets of Ljubljana tour with Primoz. He guided us to a number of hidden gems that we would not have noticed had we toured on our own. He is very knowledgeable about the city and was prepared with print material to better describe and explain certain aspects of the city, which was really helpful. His manner throughout our 2 hour tour was pleasant, considerate and full of fun and interesting facts. The time just flew. Especially appreciated, was the spectacular sunset that he orchestrated for our pleasure at the end of the tour on Butcher's Bridge ( with all the lover's locks ). Great way to end a very nice tour!! Thank you!!

First of all, a great personality of the tour guide makes it all so much nicer and easier! We’ve rented some e-mountain bikes and one really good full suspension bike. The destination was Planina Šija and the cottage up there, where you can get stunning views and good home made food. Nothing beats the mountains with friends.
