Guided Walk And Funicular Ride To Ljubljana Castle

The walk through the city center and along the river area. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and gave us several interesting facts regarding Ljubljana ‘s history.

Ljubljana is a quaint city and the important sights are all within a short walk. So a walking tour is the ideal way to get to know the city. In a walking tour, having a good guide is critical and our guide Alan did not disappoint. The only dampener was literally the weather, as the rain came soon after the walk began. But Alan did a good job of moving from spot to spot when there were short breaks in between the showers.

Great short walking tour of the city. They pack quite a lot of history in a short time. Guide Alan was great. Value for money is about right. Castle and funicular is a bonus add on.

We were about 20. No radio system with headphones. Could not hear and members asking more than 3 times to speak up did not help. This 2h tour did not have a plot to make the tour a story. It was an endless count of details without a connection between.

We booked this spontaneously 45 minutes before the start and had no problems. You could also buy the trip directly at the tourist Info, where you have to meet. We had a funny and lovely guide which name started with an M, but for the life of me i can't remember. She was knowledgeable, interacted with all the tour "members" - we were around 13 people -, and made us feel special (which is nice since the tour itself is not tailored and rather "standard-y", but that is totally fine for the price!!). We are very happy we did the tour and didn't just roam around aimlessly. For us, this being the first time in Ljubljana, it was a nice small walk with interesting information varying from architecture, history, general slovenian life to fun facts. Easy to digest info with an enthusiastic guide! Just be aware that even though it says you can bring dogs, they are not allowed on the funicular and in some buildings, so you'd have to miss out on those. If there was a "second part" with more in depth info or a bigger walking radius, we would book it for sure the next time!
