Great trip - Very enjoyable trip. We were picked up on time by our lovely guide. There were only 4 on our trip and we were made very welcome. She gave us lots of information. The castle visit was good but be aware that there are lots of steps. The Cave trip was good. Enjoyed the train ride and the Cave was very interesting

Great tour over all… would do it again - It was an amazing trip to an incredibly Beautiful location… I thought it was a little expensive .. and still didn’t cover the entrance fees … but the tour guide was very informative and very helpful… she gave very good recommendations as to what was worth doing and not.
The cave especially, was a major attraction … HIGHLY RECOMMEND.. the Postojna castle was just ok… nice castle from the outside, but not worth the cost to go inside
Lake Bled Castle was worth the cost just for the view alone …
I would definitely recommend this tour overall

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.

Postojna Cave is mother nature’s masterpiece and a must see while in Slovenia. - The driver/tour guide was on time, even though the company didn’t send any communication prior to the day of the tour. He explained the schedule and his expectations. The cave was wonderful. We took a ton of pictures and videos. It was very well organized. The visit to the castle was fine. For people with mobility issues, it would have been impossible to visit. The stairs inside the castle are slippery and uneven making the visit arduous and at some instances dangerous. The castle is impressive from the outside and not very interesting inside. I would have liked to receive an email from the company prior to the tour.

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
