This 5-day itinerary of Slovenia offers a broad experience of some of the best sights in the country. From the lively capital, Ljubljana, the ever-popular lakes Bled and Bohinj, to the underground marvel of Postojna and picturesque Piran, Slovenia will amaze you with its natural beauty, spectacular scenery, friendly locals and rich history.

Stay in Ljubljana, conveniently located in the middle of the country, giving you the opportunity to explore more places without long and tedious drives. Each day will bring you to a different part of Slovenia and you will get to explore the mountainous north, the Mediterranean south, the unique and mysterious karst, and the blend of modern with old in the very center.

The sightseeing in this tour package is set at a comfortable pace, so you will have plenty of time to explore everything, and still packed with activities that will give you something to reminisce about for years to come.

And since the distances here are very short, your 5 days in Slovenia do not necessarily include only the cities, but you can easily explore the gorgeous surroundings as well, expanding it to an unforgettable active nature break.

Frequently Asked Questions

The included pickup and drop-off at the end of the holiday in the price published on our website is in Ljubljana. For any changes, please notify us upon booking. The included transfers are all the transfers between places and/or activities specified in the itinerary.

Both our back office team and our guides know where to go. We can give you recommendations or even pre-book some places for you. You can be adventurous and find places on your own. Either way, let us know if you would like any sort of help.

It is important to dress for the season. Slovenia has all 4 seasons, so please check the weather forecast before the day trip regarding temperatures and rainfall. When you are close to the Alps, the weather can change fairly quickly, so your best bet is to always bring an extra layer. We recommend shoes you will be comfortable in.

It really depends on the level of your restriction. Vegetarian options are fairly easy to find in Slovenia, but vegan dishes, on the other hand, are extremely hard to come by in rural areas of the country and in smaller towns. Please note that the places where we stop for lunch are often traditional and may have difficulties accommodating you outside of their standard menu. We suggest you keep this in mind.

Yes! Our holidays are designed to give you some free time every day to relax and spend it the way you want to. It is your holiday after all! For any advice and suggestions you can always turn to your tour leader or our back office, who will be more than happy to help you out.
