Andreja was awesome. My wife and I were absolutely in love with this excursion. The time in Ljubljana was perfect. Downtown area was very nice and plenty to do. Lake Bled was beautiful.
Josephine_R, Oct 2025
This is an all-day van tour of two very pretty places —. Ljubljana a clean, pleasant university town, and Lake Bled an impossibly picturesque mountain lake straight out of Goethe or Wordsworth. Our guide Antonio was most solicitous for our comfort, but the drive from Zagreb is more than two hours. If you want to visit those places, your best bet is probably to fly there and stay overnight.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the beauty of Ljubljana and the storybook charm of Lake Bled. They truly are unforgettable places, and it’s wonderful that Antonio helped make your day comfortable and enjoyable.
For guests who prefer a more relaxed pace, an overnight stay can indeed be a great option. Still, we’re glad you chose to explore these destinations with us, and we hope the scenery along the way made the journey worthwhile.
Thank you again for touring with us — we’d love to welcome you back on another adventure!

Ljubljana is a very historic place, great city to eat or just grab a coffee or beer. Love the farmers market of the place and if you walk to the castle will see an amazing view of the city. Blend city is just perfect to relax the views are like if it were a postcard. Our tour guide(sadly don’t remember the name) was excellent, very knowledgeable and fun to travel with.

Really great experience with a very polite, friendly & informative guide, António ☺️ Lake Bled was breathtaking & the tour was at a nice relaxed pace with just enough time at places. We did the one hour walking tour with Antonio in Ljubljana & had time to ourselves for lunch in the quaint city of Ljubljana & got the funicular up the castle. Really enjoyed Lake bled with the pletna boat ride & last stop off at Bled castle. Highly recommend this day out ☺️

The entire experience was wonderful. We got to travel with 2 other friendly couples from Australia. Our driver Antonio was great and knowledgeable about the places we visited and it made our visit more enjoyable. It was our first time visiting Ljubiana and Bled and we were blown away by it's sheer beauty. It is definitely a place worth revisiting.

If you are short on time, this is a great way to see 2 beautiful spots (Ljubljana, Bled) in Slovenia from Zagreb. Dom was our chauffeur and tour guide. Though it was a cold sunny day, he kept us warm with information and safe driving. In Bled, we did the boat tour to the church on the island (Euro 20 cash / person) and the tour of the castle (Euro 18 / person).
Response from Host, Oct 2025
Thank you for your kind review! We’re so glad you enjoyed exploring Ljubljana and Bled with Dom, and that he made the journey comfortable and informative. It’s great to hear you had a wonderful experience despite the chilly weather. We hope to see you again on another Wanderer Travel tour!

Antonio was an excellent tour guide! In Ljubljana he gave us a walking tour and explained the history and geography of the region. It was like an art and architectural street tour! Then we had time on our own to explore. The meeting place was easy to get back to. Then we went to Bled Lake which was beautiful. Some people went on the boat ride and I chose to walk the pathway around the lake. Our last stop was the castle with the great view of the area. It was so beautiful and just enough time to see everything. It was a perfect day tour and Antonio’s knowledge of the area brought it to life. Great day!
Response from Host, Oct 2025

Katarina_K, Oct 2025
Antonio was fantastic. Had lots of good information to share about Ljubjlana, Slovenia and Lake Bled. Made sure we knew the best places to go. We decided to do the Lake Bled Castle which was 18 Euros, which is expensive for what the structure itself is, but the view of the lake from there was spectacular. We had a great trip.
Response from Host, Oct 2025
Thank you for your lovely review! We're so glad you enjoyed the trip and that Antonio made your day memorable with his insights and recommendations. Lake Bled’s view from the castle truly is something special! We hope to welcome you on another Wanderer Travel adventure soon.

It’s a tour for 8 people but they seat 3 in the front row and it’s pretty cramped in the front row next to the driver.
Response from Host, Oct 2025
Dear guests,
Thank you for your review.
We appreciate your feedback and would like to clarify that all tour companies across Europe use the same standard passenger vans, registered for 8 passengers plus the driver.
These vans all have the same amount of space in the front row — this is simply how they are designed.
In your case, you specifically requested to sit in the front seat because of motion sickness, and we did our best to accommodate your wish. You were seated next to another guest who had the same issue, which is why both of you were placed in the front row.
We’re sorry that your rating reflects discomfort from a seating arrangement that was made entirely at your own request, as our only intention was to make your journey as comfortable as possible.
Kind Regards from Wanderers Team

It was a wonderful trip and it far exceeded our expectations. We were gone from Zagreb for 10 hours, yet the stops seemed to be the “right” amount of time. Antonio was a fantastic guide and I can’t say enough about him. Plan on an extra 40 to 50€ per person for all the activities. You don’t want to miss any.

I wish I could give more stars. Dom was an excellent tour guide and he really kept us on schedule. He was knowledgeable about Ljubljana and Lake Bled region. I learned about the region and the history of both areas leaving just enough curiosity to want to go learn even more and wanting to return to Slovenia and experience more of this beautiful country. It’s a long day of travel so I appreciated that the van was comfortable. This was an excellent tour and I highly recommend it.
Response from Host, Sep 2025

Sights are lovely and guide was knowledgeable. Fairly lengthy day due to drive when traffic is heavy.
EVGENIA_N, Sep 2025
Take the trip, it is a great way to see a bit of Slovenia in just one day. Our guide Lucjan is the absolute best, we learnt so many things and I like the way the information was presented. I would prefer it if we had the option to stay at the lake if we didn’t want to see the castle, because there is really nothing else to do there, but wait.
Response from Host, Sep 2025
Dear guest
Thank you very much for sharing your experience! We’re happy you enjoyed exploring Slovenia with Lucijan and appreciated his guiding. Your feedback is truly valuable to us.

This was a really organised tour - very customer centred. Driver was great - it was a long drive there and back! He was very friendly, attentive and informative. Everything ran smoothly. He and the organiser of the tour were very friendly, helpful and made arrangements to suit my situation before hand. I really appreciated their professionalism and friendliness. The tour itself was fantastic and well worth doing.

This is a better way to enjoy Slovenia in a day. You will be spending tour time knowing the places and as well enough free time to enjoy it. Our guide Dom is very good in giving all information about the place and provides suggestions in everything you need to know in order to make the most of Slovenia.
It is our 2nd time in Slovenia but we were amazed by the beauty of Bled Lake and the Castle! This tour is well recommended specially Dom!

The tour operator was in time. He got to know all of his passengers and brought them together where 5 strangers ended up having a blast and laughing together. Dom was very knowledgeable and I learned a lot about Croatia and Slovenia from him.
Additionally, Lljublano is fun, and Lake Bled are breathtaking. I highly recommend this tour!

Loved lake Bled, maybe it would have been nice to spend more time there, and shorten the first part of the trip?
Antonio was informative, professional and very caring. Thank you!
David_E, Jul 2025
Great Tour of Llubjiana and Bled. If you only have one day to see Slovenia, this can't be beat. You get a taste of the capital, and then Lake Bled, which is stunningly beautiful. Our guide Lucian got us to where we needed to be, and made sure we could see major points of interest with an understanding of where we were. If you are Zagreb.but want to see something of Slovenia, this is the way to do it.
