Happy to hear you had nice time!

Great Shore Excursion

Charles_M, Nov 2023
This was a wonderful shore excursion! The caves were magnificent! It is a must see if you are in Slovenia. Our tour guide was very informative about the area, culture and history. The pick up point was directly off the ship and they were very punctual in returning us to the ship. Definitely would recommend

Response from Host, May 2024

Good experience

Enza_N, Nov 2023
So pretty and interesting. Definitely lots of walking and chilly. Couldn’t hear the guide but that was part of the cave staff. Very slippery so wear sneakers. The train was an experience but fun and one of a kind

Thank you very much for your comment!

Not clear instructions

Melissa_W, Sep 2023
Very unorganized when I booked tour thought it was for 8:30 in the morning. That was the time tour kiosk opened, tour wasnt until 10:45, was told I was sent a message the day before giving me the time (never received) but how are you going to inform someone the day before of the time? We had other plans later in day which had to be cancel since tour started 2 hrs later then expected. Should inform people of the time when they book not the time you open.

Response from Host, Sep 2023

Hello Melissa, We are very sorry to hear you were unhappy and we understand your position. But there is some misunderstanding. We have sent you the message via Viator about the start time on 21st of August, your tour was on 19th of September. So you were not informed the day before, but almost a month before (you can easily check via Viator). It is always important to read the messages that are sent, especially to avoid such issues. All best

Great short tour

Tobi_H, Aug 2023
Great caves. Kids loved them. Not too far from the port. Bus meets you from the ship and returns you there so very handy. Castle was beautiful

Response from Host, Sep 2023

Response from Host, May 2022

Thank you, we are very pleased you had terrific day!

Excellent cave tour.

We enjoyed the cave tour. We were there when the crowds were lite. I've heard it can be very crowded during peak season. The walk inside is very steep at times and is about an hour long. Great picture opportunity. The castle tour was a disappointment that we did not go inside. But is was picture perfect from the outside

Response from Host, Oct 2019

We are glad you enjoyed our Postojna cave tour. Please kindly notice that on our shared tour to Postojna Cave it is planned to do only a photostop at Predjama Castle. Thank you for your candid comments about our attentive staff that worked very hard to give a great service. We hope to see you soon in the future. Best Regards Ivan

It was a good tour through the cave. A lot of walking up hill and down. The cave is very cold so bring a jacket
