Brilliant tour, our guide was very efficient and informative. Highlight of my time in Slovenia as I’ve never seen anything like the castle and caves

This tour was very well planned and kept us interested throughout. Our guide was friendly, knew a lot, and made it fun. I'd definitely recommend it; it's worth it!

Upon arrival, take a guided tour of the cave system by electric train, and then walk through the beautiful passages and chambers of spectacular drop stones, pillars, limestone curtains, and other extraordinary natural wonders.

Continue to the idyllic village of Predjama and visit the Renaissance castle built within the mouth of a cave. Admire the fairytale setting and architecture of the medieval fortress of Predjama Castle, famous as the former seat of the knight Erazem Lueger. Marvel at the dramatic setting among the hills of the Inner Carniola region.

We loved our tour with Klemens! He knows so much about the castle and different rooms. We learned so much more than we would have if we’d gone without a tour. This was one of the highlights of our trip
