Reviews
I booked the tour the night before and booking was very easy. I received confirmation soon after, along with the pickup time for the next day. On the day of the tour, the operator even sent an email to inform that the pickup would be 5 minutes late. It was definitely a surprise that they would inform for even a 5 minutes delay. Thereafter I was picked up by my guide, Maya. Maya was impeccable in her guidance throughout the tour. She is not only knowledgeable about Slovenia, but she’s also a great communicator, always taking care to point out certain landmarks to us so that we may use them to navigate the area. As a guide, Maya is one of the best that I’ve met so far and from the start to the end, she was very professional and thanks to her, I truly enjoyed the tour to Ljubljana and Lake Bled. (P.s. Can I also add that she’s a great driver.)
The trip first took us from the meteorological garden in Zagreb old town to Ljubljana. it was a small group tour. However, the other members of the group cancelled their tour and we were left to be the only ones on the trip. We were glad that the company didn’t canceled us and we were able to go. We did the old town walk at Ljubljana with the guide, she recommended Slovenia food to try and chocolates to buy. We took the plena boat ride to the island at Lake bled. it was a beautiful and relaxing day with beautiful weather. We also had cream cake at Park Hotel as recommended by the guide. The guide said she will send me the recipe for making the cream cake and I am looking forward to it.
Our guide and driver were very professional and friendly, providing detailed information about the history and culture along the way. They safely transported us to each attraction, allowing plenty of free time to explore. Entrance fees for the castle and the boat ride on Lake Bled were extra, and participation was optional. The guide also offered other suggestions, such as hiking around the lake or enjoying delicious local cake by the lakeside. The eight-seater van was very comfortable, and the itinerary was well-planned, without feeling rushed.
our driver/guide Mathias was very helpful. he gave us ample time to be on our own. to top it all it was only me and my mom on the van.
It was a great day trip. We were a small group of 7 people. Bled Lake is an amazing place and Liubiana isa beautiful capital.
I was surprised at the last minute private tour (as other participants cancelled the previous day). The experience was beyond my imagination (I had previously joined one of their tours a few days prior and had an amazing time, therefore this one is bound to be even better). The tour in Ljubljana and Bled was like going on a drive with a friend that’s local. Everything was perfect: perfect weather, perfect timing as there was barely anyone around so I was able to take a lot of good photos and had some assistance from Maja that also takes amazing photos and perfect itinerary of the day trip. We spent some good time at spots that I liked, shared a story or two, the drive was never boring (even got the opportunity to see a glimpse of the Alps!) and was given a lot of consideration and choices. Truly a remarkable memory and experience that will forever be ingrained in my heart whenever I think of these locations.
The tour is amazing. Our tour guide Maja is very knowledgeable with the history of Slovenia and Zagreb.
Lake Bled is truly beautiful, and I recommend purchasing castle tickets along with it. There are excellent photo opportunities there, and it's more convenient and cheaper than buying tickets on-site.
the guide/driver was knowlegeable and share so many facts about the place, the only downside is his driving skills which is scary and felt unsafe he was going 180 which we are not used to it co sidering roads slippery due to the weather
The guide was great. She explained the history and all will detail. it was fun. overall the place visited was beautiful and mesmerizing.
