Beautiful tour and exceptional guide - We started doing the tour to Lake Bled with Vanessa I don't remember the name in her idiona pardon) and although we were accompanied by the weather she made us have such a good time that we asked if we could seguit and do the tour to the castle and caves of Postojna with her and she arranged it! Besides giving us a lot of information about Slovemia, she was such a good guide, always attentive, loving that made us have a great time! Thank you so much for everything Vanessa

Charming Lake Bled - Beautiful place, even in winter. urine, the Guide, excellent: a perfect English that, for those of us who do not have English as a native language, is essential.

Beautiful Bled - A wonderful experience led by such a knowledgable tour leader.
He was not only knowledgable on all things we needed to know, but also a down to earth and fun guy.
The trip was great, the pics dont lie, it really is that stunning.
Oh, and try the cake at the end, yum.

Beautiful Day on Lake Bled - Our tour guide Gor was very knowledgeable and shares a great amount of information on our location. We had a pleasant and safe trip to lake Bled. We opted to skip the castle. But took the boat ride to Bled island. It was a beautiful day to be on the water. The instructions were clear on pick up and drop off.

Definitely worth a visit to Lake Bled - The tour was very good
Our driver was v chatty but very knowledgeable and interesting
At lake bled we went to the island - 45 minutes on it when really needed 20
Then drive round lake- which was awesome
Then went to Bled castle - very impressive views but again didn’t really need 50 minutes there
Well worth the visit but note the fees for the island (19euro) and castle (20 euro) not included in tour price- which was stated. Also need cash to pay for these tickets

Great half day trip - Informative, friendly and enjoyable time.
I would recommend bringing some cash with you for the entry into the different locations 18€ and 20€ will cover a individual for the castle & island.

All good except for admin/mgt. - This trip was well done if you’re on a short timeframe - it helped us make efficient use of a half-day’s time. Klemen was a very good, informative and knowledgeable guide. The only downside with the trip itself is for someone sitting in the back of the van with the typical rattles and squeaks of the back of a vehicle, it’s hard to hear everything he says. Apart from the tour itself I had to take several hours of my vacation time the day before to accommodate the company’s last minute request to switch our trip from morning to afternoon - and then switch back when they changed their minds. This is so counterproductive when the reason you’re using a tour company is for the most efficient use of your limited vacation time.

Ok but all interesting points not included in tour cost. - Ok tour, however price is a bit high given the fact that nothing is included so you're paying only for a shuttle. Its nearly 60 EUR to do all the interesting aspects of the tour, fee to get into castle, fee for boat to island, fee to get into church on the island, non of which are included in tour price. Would only recommend if there is no cheaper option to visit Lake Bled and Castle Bled.
