    3 min

  3. Find out about our most famous architect, Jože Plečnik, whose works are considered a UNESCO heritage site, and who is responsible for Ljubljana looking as it does today, and why we have a Triple Bridge in the center

    5 min

  4. Ljubljana's Colonade is one of Plečnik's most amazing creations. Its an enormous structure that holds many secrets and surprises.

    5 min

  5. Also known as the love-lock bridge, Ljubljana's most recent bridge is a modern spectacle that does not resemble its original plans. Find out why.

    5 min

    5 min

  7. The best place in town for local produce

    5 min

  8. It might be small in comparison with the larger cathedrals in neighboring countries, but it does have amazing history and is the pride of Slovenia's Baroque architecture.

    5 min

  9. The central square of medieval Ljubljana. Its gotta have some amazing stories.

    5 min

  10. Ljubljana's most famous Baroque artwork stands in Town Square. Does it look familiar?

    5 min

  11. This architecturally confused building is where city politics have been taking place for over 500 years.

    5 min

  12. Ljubljana's old Medieval town is one of the sweetest around. Cant miss it. Actually, most of the sites we see on-tour are in the Old Town, so saying its 30 minutes is not quite right.

  • 5Fantastic and insightful 2-hour tour

    Guide Tina was fantastic! Knowledgeable, friendly, engaging and approachable. We toured on a very wet day in Ljubljana and Tina found spots for us to stand out of the weather while still being able to see the landmarks she was sharing stories about. She also answered many different questions from the group, which further enriched the tour. It was a tour well worth taking to learn about some of the ancient and more contemporary history of the city as an introduction to visiting before doing my own exploring. These tours are "free" but tips of 10-20 euros are justifiably encouraged and well deserved by the excellent guides. Hvala Tina!

  • 5Best Walking Tour Ever⭐️

    We had such a great time on this walking tour with Domen! He was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely passionate about Ljubljana and Slovenia. He shared so many interesting stories and little details that we would have never discovered on our own. Honestly, one of the best walking tours I’ve ever done. Domen made the whole experience fun, relaxed, and really memorable. Highly recommended if you’re visiting Ljubljana!

About Ljubljana

Ljubljana is Slovenia's small, green capital, a riverside city of bridges, a hilltop castle and cafés, with lakes and mountains within reach.

Ljubljana sits on the Ljubljanica River beneath a castle on a wooded hill, and its compact centre is closed to most traffic. The architect Jože Plečnik shaped much of the look of the city, with the Triple Bridge, the riverside market colonnades and the National and University Library. The Dragon Bridge, guarded by four dragons, recalls the city's symbol, and a funicular climbs to the castle.

Top-ranked sights in Ljubljana: Dragon Bridge, Ljubljana Old Town, Triple Bridge (Tromostovje).
