Amazing. We did the 6 hour tour together with our guide Borut. He was very nice and made us feel comfortable all the way through. He was very invested and tried his best explaining, even with his level of English. The tour included climbing rock terrain, rowing a rubber boat for several kms, moving the boat over terrain and climbing/going through some tight spaces. Expect to get a bit dirty over the course of your journey. We saw quite some creatures, including the famous human fish, beautiful cave formations and remains of cave workers/climbers from a long time ago. The equipment was good, no problems there. We never felt unsafe because of Borut his spirit and enthousiasm. Would recommend for everyone that is in for the description above. Even if you hesitate, do it. It is not tiresome if you are able to do a good hike. Many of the tight spaces are short, thus not that bad at all. Thanks Borut, from Mischa and Lisa.

Predjama Castle is situated in the middle of a towering cliff, a mere 9 km from Postojna Cave. Picturesque, magnificent, defiant, mysterious and impregnable, it has been dominating the surrounding area, perched high up in the 123-metre high cliff, for more than 800 years. It is listed among the Guinness World Records as the largest cave castle in the world. Check the timetable of visits by months.

Predjama Castle. When travelling Rovinj, Croatia to Ljubljana, we debated whether or not to make the side trip to this castle since we had already seen two other major structures built into cliffs (Tekija Blagaj Dervish House, Mostar and Pustinja Blaca/Blaca Hermitage, Brac) on this trip, but we are glad we did. Our GPS lady friend got us there with just one little glitch, which we overcame having learned to follow local road signs any time there is a discrepancy with the GPS. The drive there was through little villages and it took us about an hour to reach the castle from the Croatia-Slovenia border. There is a small parking lot which is only 50 m from the path to the cave. No fee is required unless you decide to go inside. The Predjama Castle is a picturesque and impregnable castle perched in the middle of a 404’ high rocky cliff where it has rested for over 800 years. We have learned that settling in the caves initially provided people such as monks and kings protection from pirates and the rest of the structures are the product of home improvements made over the centuries. At the base of the cliff flows the Lokva River, which disappears underground deep below the castle, which has had a variety of owners over the centuries. At the end of WWII the castle was “confiscated and nationalized by the Yugoslav Communist authorities and turned into a museum” which did not work out well. Since 2007 it has been managed by an independent company. We did not pay to go in because from what we read, the insides are not authentic, but contain lots of suits of armor and warfare gear. We did spend about 45 minutes walking the grounds, taking pictures and using the clean restroom. Food is also for sale. All in all, this is a worthy stop that we are glad we made. As an aside, about 10 minutes away were the caves. We drove past on our way back to the highway and were amazed at the size of the parking lot there, as well as the number of cars. It looked like Disney World. I am sure it must be a wonderful adventure for some, but at 70, I try to avoid large crowds where I am shuttled about like cattle.
4. Postojna Cave

Postojna Cave is the best-known cave in the world. It is also the greatest tourist attraction in Slovenia and one of the world's largest karst monuments. A fantastic web of tunnels, passages, galleries and halls, the astonishing diversity of Karst features as well as easy access are certainly the main reasons for such popularity of the cave and a large number of visitors.

Immense cave system - taking the little train 3km into the caves was great fun even for my grown up children. You visit in groups and after the train ride walk for a further 2km into the caves where the guide gives information about certain areas .Fantastic stalagmites and stalactites and immense fascinating caverns. Please be aware that some of the walking is up or down quite steep paths -( maybe a problem for those with compromised mobility or breathing difficulty) - wear sensible shoes. We booked online which saved queuing and took the bus from Ljubljana, where we were staying, which took about 1 hour.

The cave impressed me! We chose a 2h tour that includes a boat ride along the first lake. The cave is really beautiful, I saw a lot, I learned a lot. Guides are friendly.
