Itinerary
We will meet at the airport at 8am for our flight to Trieste departing at 10.35am and arriving at 12.30pm. Upon arrival, we will proceed to our central hotel in Bled and check-in.
We will start off our stay with a full-day optional excursion to explore the town of Bled, known as the pearl of the Slovenian Alpine region. We shall visit Bled Castle (entrance extra), and then proceed to Bohinj, the largest glacier lake in Slovenia, situated in the region of the Julian Alps. You may opt to take a cable car (extra – weather permitting) up to Mount Vogel and admire the stupendous view till we reach the summit.
Our full-day optional excursion today takes us to the area of Novo Mesto, visiting the traditional 150-year-old Matjaz's Homestead (entrance extra) where one can learn about life in the countryside of Dolenjska. This country house was restored and refurbished in the traditional way. After touring the homestead and the old wine cellar, we will attend to a multi-vision presentation about the history of wine. All this is followed by a snack of home-made bread, cheese and obviously wine (fruit juice for children) and learn about the mysteries of a special wine variety of Cvicek Wine. We will then proceed to Radovlijca, a medieval town with the views of the Karavanke Alps and the Julian Alps, known for beekeeping and chocolate. Lastly, we will make a brief stop in Brezje to visit the renowned Basilica of Mary Help of Christians, the village's most treasured landmark. We will then return to Bled, where we will have free time to walk around the lake, hire a boat (extra – weather permitting) or use the Tobaggan (extra – weather permitting).
Following breakfast, today’s optional excursion takes us first to visit Predjama Castle (entrance extra), a unique structure in Gothic style built right in the mountains under a natural rocky arch with a curious history. Our next stop will be a visit to the Postojna caves (entrance extra) which feature 24km of amazing stalactite and stalagmite structures. An electric train will take us into the caves, and then a guide will walk us through the most dramatic parts of the caves.
This morning, we shall go on an optional full-day excursion to visit Ljubljana, the capital city of Slovenia. This friendly city has a baroque section of the old town, with narrow, cobbled streets nestled between the castle slopes and the river Ljubljanica. Highlights of the old town include the Cathedral of St. Nikolai, City Hall, Ljubljana Castle, and the three bridges. After the walking tour, we will have free time where one can take a boat ride (extra – weather permitting) on the River Ljubljanica or enjoy some shopping.
On today’s full-day optional excursion, will start by going to Skofja Loka, a picturesque medieval town where one can admire the picturesque bridge that crosses the Selska Sora river and takes you to the old town. The old town is a maze of narrow winding lanes that invites you to wonder around. The highlight is the Loka Castle, which is worth walking up to it, to admire the beautiful panorama of the town and the surrounding mountains. Later, we will proceed to Vintgar Gorge (entrance extra) to experience the unmissable scenery of the gorge. The highlight is a 1600m wooden walkaway through the gorge which crisscrosses the swirling Radovna River four times over rapids, waterfalls and pools before reaching 16m-high Sum Waterfall.
An enjoyable full-day optional excursion will start by visiting Zelenci Natural reserve. Here we will have a small walk through the forest, until we reach this spectacular natural spot. We will then proceed to Kranjska Gora, set near the borders with Austria and Italy. This winter and summer tourist resort touches Triglav National Park. The day spent here is a fun day, with loads to do (fun activities are extra), or just enjoying the beautiful scenery around. We shall then make a stop at the beautiful Lake Jasna, located just 2km from Kranjska Gora. Lake Jasna is a stunning alpine lake with breathtaking views of the high mountain peak as a dramatic backdrop. The lake is guarded by a statue of ‘Zlatorog’, the Golden Horn, the legendary chamois of Mount Triglav.
Today, after breakfast, we will make our way to Trieste airport for our flight departing at 12.55pm and arriving in Malta at 14.50pm.
