Highly Recommended - Very happy we got to experience both the Croatian capital of Zagreb and the neighboring country of Slovenia. Lake Bled was especially beautiful, although three hours there perhaps was a bit too long. Our guide provided great insight into the history of the region and set the tone for an experience that was as educational as it was beautiful.

Wonderful trip - This trip is so worth it. It was such a pleasant experience as we were there on the same day of street food festival. The Bled lake was absolutely breathtaking.

Wonderful small group with lots of free time on our own and Lake Bled and Ljubljana were beautiful - This small group tour to Ljubljana and Lake Bled was perfection for us, just what we were looking for! The driver & guide, Renato, picked us up right on time at our hotel (Zagreb Westin Hotel was a pickup point so that made it super easy). The small group had 8 people and we all got along great, respected the meeting times. Renato got us there and back safely. First stop was Ljubljana Old Town. Renato parked in an underground garage with free and clean restroom stop, very considerate. We made our way to Old Town and got to visit many famous sights: Triple Bridge, Dragon Bridge, Preseren Square, Central Market, to just name a few. Every bridge had clean and free restrooms, that was nice. Our funicular tickets were included so we made our way up to the castle for a good view and walk around. After the visit we were on our own to explore the farmers' market and old town. Renato pointed out several places for lunch and local desserts. He also made sure we knew where the meeting point was. Our second stop was to Lake Bled. What a gorgeous area!! The tickets to visit Bled Castle were optional and we highly recommend it. Renato dropped us off, so we had our entire visit on our own. He also told us how to walk down to the lake front, that was super nice. The walk was so pleasant, definitely no need to get picked up. It was very easy. Bled Castle is a medieval castle built high above the city overlooking Lake Bled. Million dollar view up here and the castle did not take too long to visit. We had plenty of time to stroll the lake shore and stop for some Bled Lake cream cake!! What a pleasant way to relax and get something cold to drink as well. Highly recommend this tour with Petros Tours. Exceptional experience. To us, this is a "teaser" trip, we definitely want to come back to visit Slovenia in depth!

Great day trip - We had a great day with our guide Danko. We liked that this trip allowed a good amount of personal time both in Ljubljana and lake Bled. Trip was very well organised and it was a group of only 9 people.

Excellent day trip from Zagreb - Mia, our guide, was excellent. Very knowledgeable and very good at giving directions and meeting points. My only complaint would be the length of the stop at Lake Bled - we did not need 3 hours and this just made the day very long!
