Arrive in Ljubljana
Ljubljana Jože Pučnik Airport (LJU) to your hotel in Ljubljana
- Welcome dinner
- Stay in Ljubljana
- Drive about 30 min
Fly into Ljubljana Jože Pučnik Airport (LJU), about 25 km north of the city. A driver meets you in arrivals whatever time you land and takes you about half an hour into the centre. If you are coming overland from Zagreb, Venice or Vienna instead, tell us and we arrange a meeting point. Our hotel is central, so the rest of the day is on foot: the old town runs along the green Ljubljanica river under the castle hill, and most of it is closed to cars. Rest, or wander out for coffee by the water.
Evening
In the early evening your See Sight Tours guide meets the group for a short briefing on the eleven days ahead: how long each drive is, which mornings start early and why, and where the free afternoons fall. Then we walk to a welcome dinner of Slovenian dishes at a local restaurant, with a glass of wine from the country's own vineyards.
Included
- Pick-up at Ljubljana Jože Pučnik Airport (LJU)
- Welcome briefing with your guide
- Welcome dinner in Ljubljana
Free time: Free until the evening briefing
Activity: Plan to land by about 4 pm to reach the briefing; later arrivals are met and given a catch-up by the guide.
Ljubljana: Plečnik's city and the castle
On foot in Ljubljana, with the funicular to the castle
- Breakfast
- Stay in Ljubljana
Morning
Our walk starts mid-morning at the Central Market, where the stalls of fruit, cheese and flowers sit beside the long riverside colonnade designed by the architect Jože Plečnik. His bridges, embankments and squares shaped this city between the wars, and in 2021 UNESCO listed his works in Ljubljana. From the market we cross his Triple Bridge to Prešeren Square, walk the old-town lanes to the Cobblers' Bridge and back along the river to the Dragon Bridge of 1901, with its four green dragons.
Afternoon
Before lunch the funicular lifts us up the hill to Ljubljana Castle. Climb the viewing tower: on a clear day the Kamnik-Savinja Alps line the northern horizon. Lunch is your choice, back down in the old town. The afternoon is free: Tivoli Park, the Metelkova art quarter, a river boat, or a slow coffee on the embankment.
Included
- Guided walk: the Central Market, the Triple Bridge, Prešeren Square, the Cobblers' Bridge and the Dragon Bridge
- Funicular and entry to Ljubljana Castle with the viewing tower
Optional experiences
- A boat ride on the Ljubljanica (extra, about an hour)
Free time: Lunch on your own; afternoon and evening free
Activity: About 3 hours on foot on flat streets and cobbles. The Central Market runs Monday to Saturday, so this day never falls on a Sunday.
Vintgar Gorge and Lake Bled
Ljubljana to Vintgar Gorge, then Bled
- Breakfast
- Stay in Bled
- Drive about 1 h
Morning
We leave Ljubljana after breakfast and drive under an hour north to Vintgar Gorge, just outside Bled. A boardwalk and wooden bridges of about 1.6 km follow the Radovna river between sheer limestone walls to a waterfall at the far end. The path runs one way, entry is by timed ticket, and we book the earliest slot we can get, before the gorge fills.
Afternoon
By late morning we are in Bled: drop bags at the hotel, a short walk from the lake, and have lunch where you like on the shore. In the afternoon an oarsman rows us across in a pletna, the traditional wooden boat with its canopy, to Bled Island. Climb the 99 steps to the Church of the Assumption and ring the bell for a wish. Later we go up to Bled Castle, first recorded in 1011, on its cliff high above the water, for the view down over the island and towards the Julian Alps.
Evening
The evening is free; try the local cream cake, kremšnita.
Included
- Vintgar Gorge entry and walk
- Pletna boat to Bled Island and entry to the Church of the Assumption
- Bled Castle entry
Easier option: Skip Vintgar and take a slow walk on the flat 6 km path around Lake Bled instead.
More active option: Walk up to the Ojstrica or Mala Osojnica viewpoints above the lake's west end for the classic view of the island and castle (steep, about an hour return).
Free time: Lunch on your own; evening free
Activity: About 1.6 km in the gorge on boardwalks with some steps, and the 99 steps on the island. Vintgar opens from spring to autumn; we confirm it for your dates.
Lake Bohinj and Triglav National Park
Bled to Lake Bohinj and back
- Breakfast and lunch
- Stay in Bled
- Drive about 1.5 h
Half an hour up the Sava Bohinjka valley brings us to Lake Bohinj, the largest permanent lake in Slovenia, inside Triglav National Park, the country's only national park. It is quieter and wilder than Bled, with mountains rising straight from the water. We stop first at the small Church of St John the Baptist by the old stone bridge at Ribčev Laz, its walls painted with medieval frescoes. Then the Vogel cable car lifts us from the lakeshore to about 1,500 m: on a clear day you look down on the whole lake and across to Triglav, at 2,864 m the highest mountain in Slovenia.
Afternoon
Lunch is a sit-down meal by the lake. In the afternoon, choose: an easy walk along the shore, or the climb to the Savica waterfall at the head of the valley.
Evening
We are back in Bled by late afternoon, with the evening free.
Included
- Church of St John the Baptist at Ribčev Laz
- Vogel cable car return
- Sit-down lunch at Lake Bohinj
- Savica waterfall entry (active option)
Easier option: A level walk along the eastern shore of Lake Bohinj and coffee by the water while the others climb to Savica.
More active option: The path to the Savica waterfall, about 500 steps up through the forest to a viewpoint over the falls (about an hour and a half return).
Free time: Evening free in Bled
Activity: The Vogel cable car closes for short maintenance spells; if it is shut or the summit is in cloud, we take a boat across Lake Bohinj instead.
Into Croatia: Zagreb's Upper Town
Bled to Zagreb
- Breakfast
- Stay in Zagreb
- Drive about 2.5 h
Morning
We leave Bled after breakfast and drive about two and a half hours east, past Ljubljana and down the Sava valley into Croatia. Both countries are in the Schengen area, so there is no border queue, just a coffee stop on the way.
Afternoon
We reach Zagreb around midday, with lunch your choice near Ban Jelačić Square. In the afternoon a licensed local guide walks us up into the Upper Town: through the Stone Gate, where a candlelit shrine to the Virgin survived a fire in 1731, to St Mark's Church and its roof of coloured tiles showing the coats of arms of Croatia and Zagreb. We ride down the funicular, which has run on its short track since 1890, and finish at the Museum of Broken Relationships, a collection of objects left behind by ended love affairs, each with its owner's story.
Evening
The evening is free on lively Tkalčićeva Street.
Included
- Drive from Bled to Zagreb with your guide
- Upper Town walk with a licensed local guide: the Stone Gate, St Mark's Church and Lotrščak Tower
- Zagreb funicular
- Museum of Broken Relationships entry
Free time: Lunch on your own; evening free
Activity: About 2 to 3 hours on foot with some steep lanes; the funicular saves the climb on the way down. Zagreb Cathedral is still under repair after the 2020 earthquake, so we see it from outside unless it has reopened.
Dolac market, Rastoke and the edge of Plitvice
Zagreb to Rastoke, then Plitvice Lakes
- Breakfast, lunch and dinner
- Stay in Plitvice Lakes
- Drive about 2 h
Morning
Dolac, Zagreb's main market, is at its best early, so we walk up there after breakfast while the farmers from the hills are still setting out cheese, cream, honey and the season's fruit under red umbrellas. Mid-morning we drive south about an hour and a half, past Karlovac, to Rastoke in the town of Slunj. Here the Slunjčica river splits into dozens of small falls and pools between old wooden watermills before dropping into the Korana.
Afternoon
We walk the paths through the village and stop for a sit-down lunch, perhaps trout from the river. It is then about half an hour to our hotel near Plitvice Lakes National Park, arriving mid-afternoon. The rest of the afternoon is for resting, because tomorrow starts early.
Evening
There are few places to eat near the park, so dinner tonight is included, together, with a short briefing on the Plitvice walk.
Included
- Dolac market with your guide
- Rastoke village of watermills in Slunj
- Sit-down lunch in Rastoke
- Dinner near Plitvice Lakes
Free time: Afternoon free at the hotel
Activity: Short, easy walks at Dolac and Rastoke, with a few uneven steps between the mills.
Plitvice Lakes at opening, then Split
Plitvice Lakes National Park, then south to Split
- Breakfast and lunch
- Stay in Split
- Drive about 3 h
We are at the park gate when it opens, about 7 am in summer and 8 am in spring and autumn, on tickets booked for the first slot. Plitvice, listed by UNESCO in 1979, is a chain of 16 lakes stepping down through the forest, separated by barriers of travertine that the water itself lays down, so it spills from each lake to the next in hundreds of falls. With a local park guide we walk the boardwalks of the lower lakes to Veliki slap, at 78 m the highest waterfall in Croatia, then take the electric boat across Lake Kozjak and climb gently through the upper lakes while they are still quiet.
Afternoon
By about 1 pm we are out of the park for a sit-down lunch nearby. Then it is about three hours south by motorway to Split, arriving late afternoon.
Evening
The evening is free on the Riva, the palm-lined waterfront below the palace walls.
Included
- Plitvice Lakes National Park entry at opening, with a local park guide
- Electric boat across Lake Kozjak and the park shuttle
- Sit-down lunch near the park
- Drive to Split with your guide
Easier option: Walk the lower lakes and Veliki slap only, then ride the park shuttle and boat back and wait at the lakeside cafe (about 4 km).
More active option: Carry on to the top of the upper lakes at Prošćansko jezero and ride the shuttle down (about 10 km).
Free time: Evening free in Split
Activity: About 8 to 9 km in 4 to 5 hours on boardwalks and forest paths, some uneven and wet underfoot. Swimming is not allowed in the park.
Diocletian's Palace before the crowds
On foot in Split
- Breakfast
- Stay in Split
At 8 am, before the cruise passengers and day-trip coaches arrive, a licensed local guide takes us into Diocletian's Palace, built around AD 300 as the Roman emperor's retirement home and listed by UNESCO in 1979. Unlike most Roman palaces it never emptied: the town grew inside its walls, and people still live and run cafes in it. We start below ground in the cellars, whose vaulted halls copy the plan of the rooms that stood above them, then come up into the Peristyle, the colonnaded court. Diocletian's own mausoleum became the Cathedral of St Domnius, and the small Temple of Jupiter became its baptistery. Climb the cathedral's Romanesque bell tower for the view over the red roofs to the islands.
Morning
By late morning you are free.
Afternoon
Lunch is your choice, and the afternoon is yours: walk up Marjan hill, visit the Meštrović Gallery, or swim at Bačvice beach.
Included
- Diocletian's Palace with a licensed local guide at 8 am: the cellars, the Peristyle and the Temple of Jupiter
- Cathedral of St Domnius and bell tower entry
Optional experiences
- A half-day trip to Trogir, a UNESCO-listed island town about 30 minutes away (extra, price shown at booking)
Easier option: The Meštrović Gallery, a short taxi ride along the coast, with the sculptor's work in his former villa and garden.
More active option: Climb the steps from the Varoš quarter up Marjan hill to the Telegrin viewpoint (about 2 hours return).
Free time: Late morning, afternoon and evening free
Activity: About 2 to 3 hours on foot with stone steps; the bell tower is a narrow climb that you can skip.
Ston's walls and oysters, then Dubrovnik
Split to Ston and Mali Ston, then Dubrovnik
- Breakfast and lunch
- Stay in Dubrovnik
- Drive about 3.5 h
Morning
We leave Split after breakfast on the motorway inland, then drop to the coast at Ploče and cross the Pelješac Bridge, opened in 2022, which keeps the road inside Croatia and skips the border crossings at Neum. About two and a half hours from Split we reach Ston, whose walls, built from the 14th century to guard the salt pans of the Republic of Dubrovnik, climb over the hill to Mali Ston, more than 5 km in all. Walk a stretch with your guide and look down on the salt pans still worked below.
Afternoon
Lunch is a sit-down meal in Mali Ston, where oysters and mussels are farmed in the bay; there are fish and meat dishes for anyone who does not eat shellfish. It is then about an hour down the coast to Dubrovnik, arriving around 4 pm.
Evening
In the early evening we walk in through the Pile Gate as the day visitors leave.
Included
- Drive from Split to Dubrovnik with your guide, over the Pelješac Bridge
- The Ston walls entry and a walk on the lower section
- Sit-down lunch in Mali Ston
- Evening walk into Dubrovnik's Old Town
Easier option: Stay on the level in Ston and see the salt pans from the town while the others walk the wall.
More active option: Climb the steep section of the Ston walls to the top fort and over the hill towards Mali Ston.
Free time: Dinner on your own in Dubrovnik
Activity: The Ston walls are steep in places, with steps and no shade; go early in the visit on hot days.
Dubrovnik's walls at opening, Lokrum in the afternoon
On foot in Dubrovnik, with a boat to Lokrum
- Breakfast and dinner
- Stay in Dubrovnik
- By boat
We climb onto the city walls when they open, before the heat and the cruise groups. The full circuit is about 2 km of ramparts around the Old Town, listed by UNESCO in 1979, with the sea on one side and the roofs and lanes on the other. The highest point is the round Minčeta Tower on the landward side. Then a licensed local guide walks us down the Stradun, the polished main street, to the Franciscan monastery, whose pharmacy has been working since 1317, and on to the Rector's Palace, where the republic's elected rector lived during his month in office, and the Sponza Palace.
Afternoon
Lunch is your choice. In the afternoon a boat takes us about fifteen minutes across to Lokrum, a wooded island nature reserve with rock swimming spots, a botanical garden and peacocks. Stay as long as you like.
Evening
In the evening we meet for a farewell dinner in the Old Town.
Included
- Dubrovnik city walls entry at opening
- Old Town walk with a licensed local guide: the Stradun, the Franciscan monastery and pharmacy museum, the Rector's Palace and the Sponza Palace
- Return boat to Lokrum and the reserve entry
- Farewell dinner in the Old Town
Optional experiences
- The Mount Srđ cable car for the view over the Old Town at sunset (extra, price shown at booking)
Easier option: Walk only the sea-side half of the walls, then rest at the hotel before Lokrum or skip the island.
Free time: Lunch on your own; afternoon free on Lokrum or in town
Activity: The walls have many steps and little shade; bring water and a hat. Lokrum boats run from spring to autumn.
Depart from Dubrovnik
Dubrovnik to Dubrovnik Airport (DBV)
- Breakfast
- Drive about 30 min
Morning
The trip ends after breakfast. Dubrovnik Airport (DBV) is at Čilipi, about 22 km south-east of the city and half an hour by road along the coast, and we drive you there in time for your flight, whenever it leaves.
Afternoon
With a midday or afternoon flight there is time for a last morning swim, a coffee on the Stradun, or the early-morning light on the Old Town from the Pile Gate, before the first cruise passengers come ashore. Your guide says goodbye at the hotel, or comes with the group to the airport when flights are close together. If you want more of the coast, add nights in Dubrovnik before you fly: Mljet National Park, the Elafiti islands and Cavtat are all easy day trips by boat, and we can book them for you. Ask us when you request to book and we will quote hotels and transfers.
Included
- Drop-off at Dubrovnik Airport (DBV)
Optional experiences
- Extra nights in Dubrovnik with a boat day to Mljet National Park (quoted on request)
Free time: Morning free until your transfer
Activity: Any flight time works; book after about 11 am if you want a last morning in the Old Town.
- Ljubljana2 nights
- Bled2 nights
- Zagreb1 night
- Plitvice Lakes1 night
- Split2 nights
- Dubrovnik2 nights
- Overnight stop
- Day trip
- By boat or train
Wildlife and weather: Late spring and early autumn are mild on the coast and fresh in the Julian Alps, with the Plitvice waterfalls fullest in May and June. July and August are hot and busy on the coast; in the mountains rain or low cloud can hide the view from Vogel, and we adjust that day if it does.

Questions
What does the price include?
Ten nights in central hotels, 10 breakfasts, 4 sit-down lunches and 3 dinners, both airport transfers, our own vehicle and driver from Ljubljana to Dubrovnik, your See Sight Tours guide throughout, local guides in Zagreb, Split and Dubrovnik, and every entry in the day plan, including Bled Castle, the pletna boat, the Vogel cable car, Plitvice, Dubrovnik's walls and Lokrum.
How big is the group?
The small-group trip runs with 7 to 12 guests and is never merged with another group. That size fits one vehicle, one table at lunch and one pletna boat to Bled Island, and everyone can hear the guide in the palace cellars and on the walls.
Who leads the trip?
A See Sight Tours guide travels with the group for all eleven days, from the welcome dinner in Ljubljana to the last morning in Dubrovnik. Licensed local guides join for the walks in Zagreb, Split and Dubrovnik, where local rules require them, and a park guide walks with us at Plitvice.
How fit do I need to be?
Moderately. The longest walk is Plitvice, about 8 to 9 km on boardwalks over 4 to 5 hours, and Dubrovnik's walls have many steps. Every demanding day has an easier choice, such as the lower lakes only at Plitvice or half the walls, so nobody misses the stop.
I am travelling solo. What does a single room cost?
A room of your own is from CAD 1,140 extra, shown before you book with no surprise later. Solo travellers are welcome on every departure, and you join the same activities, meals and table as everyone else.
When is the best time to go?
May, June, September and early October. The Plitvice falls are fullest in late spring, the sea is warm enough to swim by June and through September, and the coast is less crowded than in July and August. Vintgar Gorge, the Savica path and the Lokrum boats run from spring to autumn.
How does booking work?
Choose a date and send a request to book. We confirm your place within 24 hours, and no payment is taken when you send the request. The small group starts from CAD 6,700 per person sharing, with taxes included.
Can we travel on our own dates?
Yes. The private style runs for your party only, on a date you choose, from CAD 12,060 per person. If you would rather travel independently on your own dates, ask us from the dates section and we will quote the same hotels, drivers and local guides.
Do I need a visa for Slovenia and Croatia?
Canadian and US citizens do not need a visa for short stays in either country. Both are in the Schengen area, so there is no border check between them. The EU's Entry/Exit System records your fingerprints on arrival, and the ETIAS authorisation is due to start; we confirm the rules for your dates.
Which airports do I fly into and out of?
Fly into Ljubljana Jože Pučnik Airport (LJU) and home from Dubrovnik Airport (DBV), on an open-jaw ticket. Both transfers are included whatever your flight times. There are few long-haul flights to either airport, so most travellers connect through a European hub such as Frankfurt, Munich, Zurich, Vienna or Paris.
How is this trip different from your Croatia trip with Hvar?
This trip starts in Slovenia, with Ljubljana and two nights at Lake Bled, then takes the inland road through Zagreb and Plitvice to Split and Dubrovnik. Our Croatia classic stays in Croatia and adds an island stay on Hvar. Choose this one for the Alps and lakes, the classic for more time on the islands.
How do you avoid the crowds at Plitvice and Dubrovnik?
By being there first. We sleep beside Plitvice and walk in when the park opens, start Diocletian's Palace at 8 am, and climb Dubrovnik's walls at opening, before the cruise and coach groups arrive. Afternoons, when the sites are busiest, are free time.
