Slovenia and Switzerland Tours and Trips

An excellent short trip visiting some of the highlights of amazing Slovenia. A busy week starting with cosmopolitan Ljubljana with its castle, dragons, graffiti and green spaces, then off to 3 nights in Bohunj via beautiful Lake Bled. Alpine lakes, mountain mist, countless steps to a waterfall through beech forest, walking in the rain up a gorge, and cable car to the top of Mt Vogel...lots of steps and kms. Then something totally different, with a visit to coastal Izola and a day trip to the Adriatic gem called Piran...finished off with a visit to a castle in a cave and the huge Skocjan cave system, both unique places. Throughout the tour we were incredibly well looked after by the tireless Claire who made sure that we took away great memories of the European treasure which is sLOVEnia! I'll be back...

I cannot recommend this trip enough, full of gorgeous sights, fantastic food, waterfalls, gorges. The most picturesque trip I have ever done, it was like a fairytale. The guide was amazing and seemed to know absolutely everyone in the villages and was more than happy to share his knowledge and help us organize other activities outside the trip to make it all super easy for us. The Art Kristal Hotel was an amazing place to stay with lovely meals. The chocolate and wine tastings were well worth experiencing with incredible selections and knowledgeable hosts.

Beautiful country. The tour has a good balance of time in cities, the mountains and a long the coast. There is plenty of time to select your own activities during the day after some group activities and orientation.

This is a full on tour which covers a lot of ground, and seven countries, in a packed two weeks. It is a great opportunity to get an overview of the Balkans and cover a lot of ground. Recommended!

Very helpful enthusiastic leader who offered lots of alternatives that included her leadership on parts of the holiday that had nothing officially organised. We were lucky with the weather and good company of fellow travellers Strongly recommend Slovenia for its variety of beautiful scenery and amazing places of interest and friendly people EXPLORE’s choice of hotels was also very good

Our tour guide Robert was probably the most knowledgeable person I have ever met. He was attentive to all our needs and went out his way to make sure had the best experience. The added excursions were well worth the money. And the views are amazing.
