    Ljubljana

    As we arrive, you’ll follow your guide into the Old Town, where the Ljubljanica River curves past pastel façades and café terraces. We’ll stroll to the city’s most iconic spots, starting at Prešeren Square and crossing the famous Triple Bridge, where Ljubljana’s best views seem to appear in every direction. From there, we’ll continue toward the bustling Central Market, filled with local flavors and everyday city life, then pass the Cathedral area to catch a glimpse of Ljubljana’s historic heart. Your guide will share the quick stories and legends that bring the city to life, especially the dragon, Ljubljana’s proud symbol. To finish, you’ll have the option to take the funicular up to Ljubljana Castle, where panoramic views stretch over the red roofs and green hills around the city. Afterward, enjoy a bit of free time, coffee by the river, a sweet treat, or a relaxed wander,

    Bled

    When we reach Lake Bled, the pace slows down and the scenery takes over, calm water, mountain air, and views that look unreal from every angle. Start with a leisurely lakeside walk, soaking up the classic Bled panorama: the tiny island sitting in the middle of the lake, and Bled Castle perched dramatically on the cliff above. Then it’s up to you how you want to spend your time—head up to Bled Castle for the best viewpoint, take a traditional boat across to Bled Island, or settle into a café and treat yourself to the local favorite, Bled cream cake (kremšnita). Visiting in summer? Bring your swimsuit, there’s often time for a refreshing dip in the lake, turning your stop in Bled into the perfect little alpine escape.
