Lake Bled castle and island - Excellent tour. We got to see inside the castle and go to the island (by electric board as it was faster). Fantastic day, great guide, small van with 8 passengers. If you take the other boat with the oarsman you probably won't have time for the castle.

Take this Tour!! - My sister and I took this day trip to Lake Bled with Basil (he had a nickname that he told us he goes by, but that his real name is Basil and we remembered that, but not his nickname, sorry Basil!) But he was a fantastic tour guide, he was so knowledgeable and passionate about Slovenia and their history. He kept us engaged during the drive to and from Lake Bled, he answered all of our questions, and he was a hoot! My sister and I were laughing the whole time. I would definitely recommend this tour and keep your fingers crossed you get Basil as your guide!

Beutiful lake - It was a nice trip. The guide "Johnny" was very good at telling stories at the trip to and from the Lake. The lake was very beatiful. You can take a lot of good photos.

Good choice if you want to see Bled with a knowledgeable guide. - Our driver/guide was prompt, friendly, and knowledgeable. The drive was beautiful. We had plenty of time at the castle, but I felt we could have stayed longer on the island. Overall, a positive experience, but I thought overpriced.
