Here are the 8 best full-day tours in Slovenia, with what each one costs, how long the day runs and who it suits. Number one is at the top for a reason, but read past it: the country is small and the quieter option is often the better one.
Full-day bus tour from Trieste to Ljubljana and Lake Bled, with guided walks in Italian and English and time for lunch and photos.
“A little difficult to find pick up point as there was no signage. Transport comfortable. Guide knowledgeable and easily understood. Time in Ljubljana a little rushed as restaurants were busy and a bit slow. Lake Bled lovely despite bad weather.”
Full-day Triglav National Park tour from Ljubljana with waterfall hikes, emerald Soča River, Vršič Pass legends, and optional rafting.
“Beautiful trip around Triglav National Park and a quick stop at Trieste. A lot of beautiful viewpoints, with Soča River being a real highlight. If you like the great outdoors then this is a lovely tour. It was raining badly the day I went, but this did not take away from the experience. All I would say is make sure your jacket is totally waterproof and not just showerproof!”
Small-group day trip from Ljubljana to Škocjan UNESCO Caves and Piran, with Socerb Castle views and a guided cave tour.
“The trip was excellent, caves stunning, the town of Piran very beautiful! Nina our guide was extremely organised and very knowledgeable.”
Small-group day trip from Ljubljana to UNESCO Škocjan Caves and Venetian Piran, guided cave walk and Adriatic views.
“Škocjan caves is not the usual cave experience like the Postojna more common and mainstream stalagmites and stalactites caves. Škocjan is about deep narrow ravines with roar of rushing waters, about great heights between ravine rapids and ceiling of cave, about the cave ceiling looking like upside down snow forest or extraordinary scenery from another planet, about eerie darkness and evidence of the first explorer dangerous routes discovering the caves!”
Full-day trip from Ljubljana to Lipica Stud Farm and Piran, with Lipizzaner horses, Venetian streets, and Adriatic views.
“Wonderful way to spend a day! Rok was a great guide with I retesting information on the ride; the Lipica Stud Farm was beautiful even in the rain; Piran was gorgeous and I could have stayed several more hours !”
See UNESCO **Skocjan Caves**, Karst prosciutto and Teran wine, Lipizzaner horses at Lipica, and walk Piran’s medieval coast from Ljubljana.
“The trip was thoroughly enjoyable and we had a wonderful time! Our guide was excellent professional and very knowledgeable about the history of Slovenia and the places we were visiting. The transportation was on time and was air conditioned which was great. We had a great day!”
Guided quad rental in Bled with helmets and insurance, route tips from Alen, and forest-to-mountain adventure for up to two.
“Alen, who worked there was so helpful. He marked out the route on an app... I downloaded. He gave me two helmets as not sure side. And it was a life saver as moved from XS to S after an hour or would have been in pain. Was there by text if I had questions. The ride in the mountains was special. Thank you Alen and company for renting me this machine. Also, suggestions of hut was great and view special.”
Lake Bled and Ljubljana in one day from Koper, with easy pickup and a driver-guide for Plečnik sights and lake photos.
“Lake Bled and ljubania were beautiful even on a rainy Sunday. Most shops were closed. The tour guide was helpful but I would have enjoyed more information on the cities and country.”
