Description

If the Classic Tour gave you a great first impression of Ljubljana, this experience will dive deeper into the city’s rich past, uncovering fascinating lesser-known stories, architectural wonders, and cultural treasures that were not covered before. Along the way, we’ll take scenic paths through historic quarters that most tourists miss, revealing how Ljubljana evolved from a medieval settlement into a modern European capital.

The highlight of this tour is the walk up to Ljubljana Castle, where you’ll be rewarded with panoramic views of the city and the Julian Alps. You’ll also learn about the castle’s turbulent history—from a medieval stronghold to a prison and finally a symbol of Ljubljana’s identity today.
