Visitors in my capital many times think that Ljubljana is so small city, it is possible to visit in 2 hours and that it's easy to discover everything by yourself. In reality Ljubljana is small city, it has fantastic Tourist Office with many maps and brochure, but still only local guide can take you to secret places, show you less visited sights and explain you 1001 story about life in Ljubljana through many centuries. Our historical guided tour starts on Preseren square, heart of Ljubljana, where Slovenians celebrate most important events, Olympic medals, New Year etc. It's time for a story about the greatest Slovenian poet, love of his life, the biggest earthquake in a history of our country, as well as miracle house, first department store, bridge market and many other things.

Tour continues to the banks of Ljubljanica River, river with seven names and with Greek legend about Argonauts, who stole Golden Fleece. We will pass a nice palace, where Napoleon and Russian Tsar Alexander I where staying overnight, a anniversary present for the Emperor Franz Josef, search for wooden carts on the biggest market in Ljubljana, to see more then 100 years old tradition. Tour includes explanation of real Slovenian souvenirs with long tradition, historical value, that are considered as cultural heritage. In old part of the city that includes Old Square, Town Square, Upper Square and New Square, we will see fabulous present for pope’s visit in Slovenia, discover why Ljubljana does not have problem with floods, where famous composer Gustav Mahler was living and what brought him to Ljubljana, learn about hundreds of boats on the river, steamboat and waterman legend from famous Slovenian poem, walk on path of greatest Slovenian Architect with masterpieces of his work, look for a formal bakery and bridge for punishing bakers, stroll along formal city pier to the monument for the greatest Ljubljana mayor. There is plenty to explore in Ljubljana.

For the ones who really want to know Ljubljana very good, an extension of historical tour is possible and includes also other places like Opera house, National Gallery, Modern Gallery, Roman Ljubljana or Krakovo etc. Tours are adjusted to the requests of clients. Historical tour is walking tour, but the rest can be done also by bicycle.

Ljubljana will leave very good impression no matter how high are your demands. After 15 years and more then 5000 guided tours in Ljubljana, I am still very happy to take visitors around and show them real face of our capital city.
