Additional Information

Experience two of Slovenia’s highlights in one afternoon on this intimate, half-day tour from Ljubljana. Start at the thrilling Predjama Castle, mounted on a cliff overlooking the stunning Inner Carniola region. Discover the various rooms and staircases, and hear stories about the castle’s most infamous occupant, Erazem of Predjama. Then proceed to Postojna Cave. Hop on a small train that takes you deep into the renowned cave and walk through the surreal arrangement of stalactites, stalagmites and caverns guided by a local expert. The group size is limited to eight participants to maintain an intimate atmosphere. Postojna Cave, the world’s most recognized cave, is not only Slovenia’s prime tourism magnet but also one of the largest Karst formations globally. It is an essential destination when touring Slovenia. The adventure begins with a unique and exciting miniature train ride through one of the world’s most varying cave systems. With 21 kilometers of paths, galleries, and grand halls providing a remarkable underground exploration and a wide range of subterranean wildlife, including the globally acclaimed human fish (proteus anguinus). In addition to Postojna Cave, you’ll have the opportunity to visit Predjama Castle. Our guide will lead you to this outstanding medieval castle, fixed firmly in a sheer cliff in the serene village of Predjama. It’s a captivating and romantic sight year-round: resplendent with blooms and flowers in the spring and summer, draped in the hues of surrounding forests in the autumn, and radiating charm in the winter when the nearby region is blanketed in snow.

Great tour - I thoroughly recommend this tour. The caves are amazing and the castle is fascinating. You need a jumper for the caves - you do get dripped on by cold water particularly if it’s been raining so I would recommend a waterproof coat too.

great tour - Great tour - much more information about general Slovenian history and culture than I was expecting. Everything went very smoothly and the van was quite comfortable. Our group of six ended up having the tour to ourselves, which was an added bonus. The entrance fees were separate, but it still ended up costing about the same as what the tours that included them were charging. All in all, a great experience.

Worthwhile - Well done! Our tour guide was flexible with our goals and I am so glad we did the whole cave tour and the whole castle tour. The inside of the castle was so cool and the cave was breathtaking.

Great tour to see amazing and unique places, but expensive - Great tour - was nice to have just 8 people in the van when most others were massive coaches, although unfortunately you still end up with the coach loads of people when visiting the sites, but that is tourism nowadays. However, both the cave and castle were amazing and unique places and worth the visit, even if it was rather expensive (the tour cost was transport only, we had to pay admissions too).
