Things to do in Bled, Upper Carniola Region: The Best City Tours

November 25, 2021 Lean Nau

With its iconic fairy-tale church steeple perched atop the tiny rock island at the middle of Lake Bled, Bled is a sight that stays in your memory. The town has also long been a destination for those seeking relaxation, through its sunny alpine air and thermal springs, which are especially welcoming after a day of mountain trekking, golf or touring on horseback.

Talked a lot and made los of jokes . Also retrieved my hoody hen I nearly left it behind The caves and castle were both very impressive - although both had a lot of other visitors so was quite busy

Tarun was incredibly nice and hlepful and made the trip a joy. I scheduled last minute and he was there on time the next day and made everything seamless. He even offered to detour to Prejdama Castle, which was so worth it. Overall a very good way to get around and also learn more about Slovenia and the wonderful people. Highly recommend the caves- they were absolutely awe-inspiring and still felt well off the beaten path.

I have chosen Adventure Holiday Tours following very good reviews on TripAdvisor and I am not disappointed. Tarun did make our stay in Slovenia a memorable one. We have scheduled in advance a five days tour including some well known places to be, such as the Moon bay, Piran, the ‪Skocjan cave‬, the Soča valley, lake Bled and lake Bohinj, but indeed Tarun knows and drove us to a lot more amazing spots, less touristic and more authentic (as example you can ask him to bring you to Jezersko lake in the early morning...). Other qualities to be considered are, in a jumble, flexibility, patience, great chat partner, good driver, comfortable car ... In a word, I highly recommend Tarun (Adventure Holiday Tour) if you are looking for someone to accompany you visiting Slovenia (which BTW is a lovely country to visit).

The day trip to the capital Ljubljana was awesome. Walking around the town center made me want to stay there for at least a few more days. The weather wasn’t that brilliant, but we saw all the main sites. The architecture, climate and landscape are so different from where I was staying on the coast. It's like visiting another country.

I did not expect to see such amazing places. I love photography and this day trip was just perfect for me because all the places we visited were so beautiful. There weren't too many people, especially Bohinj. I think the tourists haven’t discovered it yet, so I suggest you go on this trip soon!
