Well worth it - Easy tour to do in a 1/2 day.
The cave tour was led by the cave guides (our Roundabout guide drove us there and arranged tickets etc.). However, this cave is one of the most visited caves in the world, so even in the off-season it was fairly packed, which wasn't to my liking.
The castle tour was definitely worth it (and led by our guide). Interesting history of this small fortress/castle/home!

Great small group tour with very knowledgeable guide - Excellent tour. We were only 6 people and our guide was great. He gave us so much insight into life in Slovenia, way beyond the locations we were visiting.

Really relaxed and interesting tour. Had a great time and the guide was awesome! - The tour guide was very knowledgeable and super friendly! The way the trip ended up I was the only person on the tour, but the guide was super chill and I felt super safe with him. I'd totally go again with friends :)

Fun Half Day Trip - Our guide Ksenija picked the group up from respective hotels and drive a nice, new van to the Castle. Agenda was flipped because of horrible traffic around Ljubljana. Everything worked out great. I really enjoyed the castle and my photos do not do the cave Justice. Bring warm clothes for the cave! It’s about 10C/50F but they have cloaks at the front door for rent. Returned home safe and sound to our hotels.

Well worth doing - Great tour and guide Sarah. Really enjoyed Postojna castle. Amazing site and very interesting audio. Felt a little rushed through the castle and had to skip some audio as we were pressed for time. The caves were great also, freezing but well set up with the train etc.
definitely recommend this trip

You get what you pay for - The trip itself is to see the Caves and Castle and that's it! Could have got a cab. The sights are worth seeing, however our driver didn't really engage with anyone. As this is a tour I was expecting some information as we were going and maybe pointing out some interesting sights. He is quite knowledgeable as when asked questions he is very informative. It's just a shame he didn't do this on the journey. It was basically, get your ticket there and I'll meet you in 2 hours. I met a fellow traveller who had done the morning trip and he even said be prepared....
It was a shame that he didn't interact with us a little more. However, he was on time, got us there and took us back.
