Detailed Itinerary

Day 1: Exploring Ljubljana

Begin your Slovenia journey by discovering the capital city, Ljubljana. You can either join a walking tour of the city or explore the most popular attractions on your own. The Prešeren Monument which is dedicated to Slovenia’s most renowned poet is a superb starting point. From there, make your way across the Triple Bridge, over Ljubljanica River, towards the old part of Ljubljana where the narrow streets exhibit the architecture and glamour of the medieval era.

Make your stop at the Saint Nicholas Cathedral, Robba Fountain, and the Town House. Head back to the river and take a halt feeling the local vibe at one of the cafés on the river bank. After the coffee break, make your way to one of Ljubljana’s many museums and galleries. Complete your today’s journey in the capital by going to a concert at the Metelkova Art Centre or by attending an event at the outdoor venue Križanke.

 

Day 2: Spending a Quite Relaxing Day at Seaside

Spend your time today on Slovenia’s beaches. Begin your day in Koper. Wander to Tito Square, where buildings display the Venetian influence on the town’s history. Make your way to the City Tower, Foresteria, Praetorian Palace, and Armeria, and the bridge-shaped Fountain de Ponte. Later, enjoy a cup of coffee with a sea view at one of the many local cafés.

Your next stop will be Piran, which is the most beautiful of Slovenia’s seaside towns. Head to Tartini Square and explore the classic narrow streets of Istrian towns. Venture to the Church of St. George, from where the view stretches all the way to Croatia on a sunny day. The last stop will be Portorož, which is the liveliest of the three towns. Checking in one of the many shops and relishing a traditional Istrian dinner at a local restaurant will make for the perfect end to your day.

 

Day 3: A Visit to Postojna Cave, and Lake Bled

This morning, make your way to Lipica, which is one of the oldest stud farms in Europe. This farm, since the 16th century, has been breeding the beautiful Lipizzaner horses. Get familiar with the history of the breed on this farm tour, visit the horse’s stables, and watch a display by the Classical riding school.

Continue your journey towards Postojna, to visit Postojna Cave. The astonishing Karst creations inside the cave have charmed many million people and is one of the most-visited attractions in Slovenia. From the underworld, visit Lake Bled. Embark on a Pletna boat ride to the lake’s island and make a wish while ringing the church bell. On getting back on shore, complete your true Bled experience by relishing the traditional pastry Kremšnita.

 

Day 4: A Hiking Tour of The So?a Valley

Today, the town of Bovec is going to be your starting point for the exploration of the So?a Valley, which is named after the emerald green river that runs through it.

Witness the source of the So?a river, the great So?a Gorge, fairytale-like hanging bridges, and much more.

Day 5: Heading to Planica and Škofja Loka

On your way back to Ljubljana from Bovec, drive over Vrši?, which is the highest mountain pass in Slovenia. Soon after you arrive at the peak, make a halt at the Russian chapel, which is a monument honoring the Russian prisoners who died while building the pass.

Your next destination for today is Planica Nordic Centre, where you will get your adrenaline pumping again! A zip line at the center replicates a ski jump and is the steepest zip line in the globe. Before returning to Ljubljana, your next stop is Škofja Loka, which is the best-preserved medieval town in Slovenia. Meander through the old part of the town and stop by the statue of Mother Mary, Granary, the Hofman House, and take a photo of the amazing 600-year-old stone bridge. After reaching back to the capital, enjoy a nightcap at one of the many bars in downtown Ljubljana.
