Great day out - Great day out with our guide Tibor. Plenty of inside tips, never felt rushed even though we covered a lot during the day.

Great Tour of Lakes and Gorge at the Foot of the Alps! - Rocco was a wonderful tour guide for this trip -- sharing about Slovenia while between stops. Great touring company, and Lake Bled was a wonderful location. Nice boat ride at the lake, though if up for it, you might enjoy more renting a boat to row yourself. nice small monestary on the lake and nice walk around the lake to the castle on the hill. Did not go inside either, but you can. Lake Boninj was beautiful, but did not have time to hike around there, and Vintgar Gorge was a modest walk along the river and few small waterfalls -- as advertised, but consider spending more time at Lake Bled -- lots more to do if you are up for walking around.

Great guide and itenerary - Really well organised tour, our guide Tibor was great and ensured we knew exactly what was happening when as well as significantly increasing our understanding of Slovenia's history and culture through funny anecdotes. We had enough time to really appreciate all parts of the tour and we managed to miss alot if the crowds due to the timing. The company was great at communicating before the tour so we knew what was happening and what to expect. The driver was experienced and safe which was a huge benefit as I didn't feel sick at all.

Well organised with great guide - Great tour, our guide Tibor was well spoken and inserted Many interesting facts into the trip. The itenerary was well organised and allowed us to fully appreciate all parts of the day, while avoiding alot of the crowds. The driver was careful and safe and the commutation before the tour meant we knew exactly what to expect. Overall a great experience made better by a great guide who not only took us on the itenerary but ensured we had a greater understanding of Slovenia's history and culture.

Seeing it all in one amazing day - Great guide Tibor, who explained the key facts in a fun and interesting way. He had humour and was also knowledgeable and passionate about Slovenia. The tour took us to all the best view points with little hints from Tibor as to how to make the most of things. Obviously the scenery is amazing and a day is never enough but if you only have a few days in Ljubljana this a great option. Pack a picnic and your swim stuff and get ready for a trip you’ll never forget.

Great Tour - Great tour to Lake Bled. Knowledgeable and talkative tour guide. Weather was a bit cloudy at the beginning but very clear when visiting the castle.

Great trip with a fabulously informative Guide. - Great trip, well organised and very informative. Our guide was amazing. He told us so much about the location and the sites. We left at about 8am and returned at 5.30pm. The morning was spent visiting the castle and church at Lake Bled. Our guide gave us options and told us the key points not to miss and where best to swim in Lake Bled. We were given various options of where to go for lunch and our whole group chose a Slovenian restaurant. The food was fantastic and the service great. After lunch we stopped at Bohinj for another swim. We then went onto Vintgar Gorge. At no point in the day did we feel rushed and the guide was always clear with instructions. Great trip that I would thoroughly recommend.

Very nice way to see a lot of sights - This tour is a great way to get a tasting of the Alpine region in Slovenia, but if you want to explore the areas in depth, I suggest to have separate tours to Lake Bled and other locations.
