Slovenia · LJUBLJANA TOURS & DAY TRIPS
67 reviewed
Almost everything in Slovenia is a day trip from Ljubljana, which is why the capital has more tours leaving it than the rest of the country combined. Below are the best of them: the walking hours inside the old town, and the minibuses that head north to the lake or south to the caves. Prices, pick-up times and how much of the day each one actually eats.
Ljubljana half-day tour to Postojna Cave and Predjama Castle, with skip-the-line tickets, an underground train ride, and English guides.

“We visited Ljubljana with my family for the first time, and I didn’t expect this one-day trip to be such a wonderful choice. In just one day, we managed to see three amazing places and had plenty of time at each stop. We’re endlessly grateful to Mathew for his interesting facts, stories, and helpful tips. The trip was truly unforgettable, and we’ll definitely book with them again when we return here next time. Thank you so much!”

“Luka is a great host. This was a great way to get introduced to the city's Pubs and to meet other tourists.

This was a great way to start the weekend.”

Prebook your Ljubljana Castle entry, choose funicular and audio options, then explore puppet museums, towers, and views at your own pace.
“The castle is visible from the entire city, so it's easy to get excited for this visit. We chose to ride the funicular up (which I recommend as it's a steep walk). Once inside, it's easy to navigate around, including climbing the tower. The views from the castle can't be beat and thus, this is a must-do activity while visiting Ljubljana.”
