from 680 EURBled & Bohinj
This journey is a sophisticated immersion into the monumental beauty of the Julian Alps and the millennial history that shaped the northwest of Slovenia. It is an exploration of landscapes where medieval bastions, sacred art, and the untamed nature of Triglav National Park converge into a narrative of aristocratic heritage, faith, and timeless Alpine identity. Your journey begins at Bled Castle, the oldest in Slovenia, perched atop a 130-meter vertical cliff. Once the seat of the Bishops of Brixen, it offers the most magnificent view of the lake and serves as a perfect historical introduction to the region. Within the castle walls, we explore the collection of the National Museum of Slovenia, which traces thousands of years of settlement — from archaeological finds to the aristocratic splendor of centuries past. The visit is complemented by a stop at the Castle Printing Works, where you have the opportunity to hand-print your own commemorative document on a replica Gutenberg press. From the castle heights, we descend to the shore to board a traditional pletna, a wooden boat handcrafted by local artisans. Our destination is Bled Island, a site of profound symbolic importance where Alpine nature meets layers of spirituality spanning over a millennium. Ascending the 99 stone steps reveals the island's transformation from an ancient shrine into a Baroque church. We will explore the significance of this spiritual oasis for the European elite and conclude the experience at the 16th-century Renaissance "wish bell." Before leaving Bled, we pause at a historic hotel that still radiates the soul of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy and the golden age of Alpine tourism. In their restaurant, indulge in a refined 3-course lunch where chefs blend traditional recipes with modern techniques, all set against one of the most iconic views of the lake. The journey continues deeper into Triglav National Park, an oasis of raw glacial beauty and deep tranquility. On the eastern shore of Lake Bohinj, we visit the Church of St. John the Baptist. With its layers of Romanesque, Gothic, and Baroque art, the church reveals how faith and local customs shaped life in this secluded valley.
from 580 EURPostojna Cave & Predjama Castle
This journey is an entry into a parallel world where human courage and geological patience have sculpted one of Europe's most magnificent landscapes. It is a morning dialogue between the defiant architecture of medieval nobility and the monumental subterranean structures at the heart of the Slovenian Karst. Your exploration begins with an early visit to Predjama Castle, the world's largest cave castle, dramatically embedded into a 123-meter vertical cliff. This medieval fortress is a fascinating example of strategic brilliance, where the natural cave behind the structure provided hidden passages and a safe haven. Explore the halls that tell the story of the knight Erazem of Predjama and an era when the boundary between natural cavern and living space was entirely blurred. For over 800 years, the castle has defied the laws of gravity, remaining an unconquerable symbol of human adaptability. After touring the castle, enjoy a brief interlude in the refined ambiance of a historic hotel. This is a time to process the morning's impressions over coffee, preparing for the transition from vertical rock faces to the mystic world of vast subterranean chambers. Before noon, we enter Postojna Cave, a subterranean cathedral of European natural science. The experience begins with a ride on the legendary cave train through galleries that nature has been quietly carving for millennia. A walk through the illuminated halls reveals the evolution of speleology and the unique biology of the Karst. We will encounter the "human fish" (Proteus anguinus), a mysterious endemic species and a symbol of subterranean biodiversity. This is a space where time is measured in centuries, and the silence of the underground speaks to the traveler in a deeply intimate way.
from 160 EURLjubljana — Private Walking Tour
You can't go wrong with this guided walk through Ljubljana's historic center and a visit to the castle. The tour covers all the city's major landmarks and shares fascinating stories about life in the capital, both past and present. The tour kicks off at Congress Square, a historic hub surrounded by some of the city's most stunning architecture. Here, you'll also encounter the city's ancient roots, as the square showcases remnants of Ljubljana's Roman heritage from the era when it was known as Emona. From there, you'll head to the National and University Library, the masterpiece of Jože Plečnik. He is the visionary architect who defined Ljubljana's unique character, and it is thanks to his incredible work that large parts of the city are now protected as UNESCO World Heritage sites. The journey continues to the Križanke Summer Theater, a unique site that was once the seat of the Knights of the Teutonic Order. This is also where you will discover the surprising connection between Napoleon and Ljubljana — you'll learn why the French Emperor played such a vital role in the history of central Slovenia and the Illyrian Provinces. Next, you'll walk across the Cobblers' Bridge into the oldest part of town. Here, you will pass the Town Hall (Rotovž), the seat of the city's government for centuries, before arriving at Prešeren Square. This iconic square is dominated by the Franciscan Church and connected to the famous Triple Bridge. Nearby, you'll find Plečnik's Market and the Cathedral — the market is a must-see, especially on Saturdays when it's extra lively and full of local energy. Just a short walk away is the funicular station, which zips you up 70 meters in a minute to reach Ljubljana Castle, the city's most famous landmark. At the castle, you can take in incredible views from the Outlook Tower or explore the interior, which features several museum exhibits including 'Slovenian History,' 'The Prison,' and a 'Virtual Castle' media presentation.
UNESCOfrom 580 EURSimply Karst
The Karst is a unique landscape shaped by the millennial dissolution of limestone and dolomite. Slovenia is a Karstic land in the truest sense; it was here that scientists first explained these phenomena, lending the name of this region to similar landscapes worldwide. Beyond its thousands of subterranean wonders, the region entices with authentic gastronomy — from traditional jota and herbal frtalja to wines praised since the times of the ancient Greeks and Romans. Your journey begins with a visit to the Škocjan Caves, considered one of the most extraordinary cave systems on the planet. Their fame is rooted not only in hosting one of the world’s largest underground canyons but also in a unique geological beauty that leaves every visitor breathless. Due to their exceptional natural value, the caves were inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage list in 1986. A walk high above the roaring Reka River reveals the raw power of nature in its most monumental form. From the depths, we ascend to the sun-drenched plains of Lipica, home to the famous white Lipizzaner horses. The history of this site and its equine traditions are inextricably linked with the Habsburgs, who ruled much of Baroque Europe for 650 years. Because the soil and climate of the Karst mirrored that of Spain, Archduke Charles established the Royal Stud Farm here in 1578. For lunch, you will discover the essence of Karst flavors. We will serve authentic Karst prosciutto (pršut), perfected by the sharp Bora wind, paired with a glass of Teran — a full-bodied, ruby-red wine that draws its character from the unique red soil (terra rossa). The path leads us to Štanjel, one of the oldest settlements on the Karst, enchanting visitors with panoramic views from Turn Hill. The castle complex, the Church of St. Daniel with its iconic lemon-shaped bell tower, and the renowned Ferrari Garden are supreme examples of architectural heritage. Under the vision of architect Max Fabiani, Štanjel has preserved its true Karst soul.
from 580 EURPtuj & Ptujska Gora
Ptuj lies at the gateway to Pannonian Slovenia, a region famed for its healing thermal springs and rolling landscapes. As the country's oldest town, it serves as the beating heart of a landscape where Roman antiquity and medieval charm merge into one of Europe's most beautifully preserved cityscapes. This journey pairs the architectural heritage of a millennial wine center with the serenity of Ptujska Gora, home to Slovenia's most magnificent Gothic basilica.
from 580 EURKobarid & Kozjak Waterfall
The Soča Valley is a landscape where raw alpine beauty meets the haunting echoes of the past. At the heart of the Julian Alps lie crystal-clear springs and the emerald-green Soča River. This is a place where the silence of the peaks intertwines with stories of courage famously immortalized by Ernest Hemingway, and where nature hides secrets like the Kozjak Waterfall, tucked away in a dramatic limestone chamber.

Kamnik is a medieval jewel nestled in the lap of the Kamnik-Savinja Alps, where centuries of aristocratic history, visionary architecture, and high-alpine traditions converge. Your journey begins at the elevated Zaprice Castle, a former aristocratic residence that offers the perfect historical introduction to the region. As we explore this baroque estate, now a curated museum, you will discover the lifestyle of Kamnik's nobility and the historical evolution of the town's elite. From the castle plateau, you will enjoy a commanding view of the town's other two bastions: the ruins of Stari grad (Old Castle) and the iconic Mali grad (Little Castle) with its rare Romanesque crypt. We descend from the castle into the medieval core to walk through Šutna, the most atmospheric and historically significant street in Kamnik. As we stroll past its elegant facades, we visit the birthplace of General Rudolf Maister, the defining military strategist and poet who shaped Slovenia's modern borders.
