Description

Take an unforgettable day trip from Zagreb and explore Slovenia’s beauty, visiting the charming Ljubljana and the picturesque Lake Bled – two must-see destinations in one amazing tour.
This one-day private tour from Zagreb offers you a unique opportunity to experience two of Slovenia's most beautiful destinations: the charming Ljubljana and the picturesque Lake Bled. Comfortable private transportation will allow you to relax and enjoy the beauty Slovenia has to offer, with the flexibility to explore at your own pace.
Your adventure begins with a drive from Zagreb to Slovenia’s capital, Ljubljana. The journey takes around 1.5 hours, so you'll quickly arrive in this charming city, known for its unique atmosphere, rich history, and stunning architecture.
Upon arrival in Ljubljana, your tour starts with a stroll through the historic city center. Ljubljana is a city on the river, and its picturesque riverbanks, bridges like the famous Triple Bridge (Tromostovje), and the Old Town with its breathtaking views from the castle hill make it an unforgettable experience.
For history and culture enthusiasts, you can visit Ljubljana Castle, a fortress that stands above the city and offers spectacular panoramic views.
After exploring Ljubljana, the journey continues to Lake Bled, one of Slovenia's most iconic natural attractions. Set in a picturesque Alpine valley, Lake Bled is famous for its small island with a beautiful church dedicated to the Assumption of the Virgin Mary.
At the lake, you can enjoy a peaceful walk along the shoreline, take a boat ride, or even swim during the summer months. A traditional "pletna" boat will take you to the island, where you can visit the church and enjoy panoramic views of the surrounding Alpine peaks.
For nature lovers, Lake Bled offers several hiking trails leading to viewpoints above the lake, where you’ll be rewarded with stunning views of the lake, mountains, and surrounding nature. This is the perfect spot for taking photos and enjoying the serenity of the natural surroundings.
Be sure to try the famous Bled Cream Cake (Blejska kremšnita), a dessert that has become a symbol of the region. You can find this sweet treat at local bakeries around the lake.
This private tour offers you complete flexibility and comfort. Since the transfer is private, you have the freedom to choose the pace of your trip, and our driver and guide will ensure that your journey is relaxing and enjoyable. You won’t have to worry about navigating or planning—our team will take care of all the details, including transitions between cities, parking, and everything else.
Throughout the trip, you’ll be accompanied by an experienced driver who will provide insightful information about the destinations and attractions. If you have any special interests or requests, the driver will customize the tour to ensure your experience is as personalized as possible.
After exploring the beauty of Ljubljana and Lake Bled, we begin the return journey to Zagreb. The drive back takes about 1.5 hours, giving you time to relax and reflect on this unforgettable trip.
