Slovenia Tours & Trips: Discover the Green Heart of Europe
Tucked between the Alps and the Adriatic, Slovenia is a small country with a vast soul. A land of fairy-tale lakes, rolling vineyards, vibrant cities and alpine meadows, it offers a tapestry of natural beauty and cultural charm that feels almost too good to be true. But what makes Slovenia even more special is the ease with which you can explore it all. In just one trip, you can hike in the mountains, swim in the sea, sip wine in a sun-drenched valley, and wander cobbled lanes beneath Baroque spires — all without rushing.
At Untravelled Paths, our Slovenia tours are crafted to showcase the very best of the country — not just the famous spots, but also the lesser-known corners that make travel truly memorable. We believe in slower, deeper journeys that immerse you in local culture, nature, and tradition. Whether you're looking for an active adventure or a peaceful escape, Slovenia delivers.
Why Visit Slovenia?
Slovenia is the kind of place that stays with you long after you’ve left. It’s compact but wildly diverse, where every corner seems to hide a new surprise — a turquoise river, a medieval castle, a vineyard stretching into the distance.
Its landscapes are clean and green, protected by a deep-rooted national love for nature. From the Julian Alps to the Adriatic Coast, Slovenia has preserved its natural wonders and traditions with care, making it one of Europe’s most sustainable travel destinations.
Then there's the people. Warm, welcoming, and proud of their heritage, Slovenians love to share stories over home-cooked meals and glasses of local wine. With English widely spoken and hospitality at the heart of the culture, it’s easy to feel at home.
Highlights of Our Slovenia Tours
Every itinerary we create is designed to be more than just a checklist of sights. We want you to experience Slovenia — to feel the fresh alpine air, taste the regional flavours, and hear the stories that make each village and valley unique.
Lake Bled & Bohinj: Alpine Beauty at Its Finest
No trip to Slovenia is complete without a visit to Lake Bled, with its iconic island church and cliff-top castle. But we always go one step further. You’ll also venture to Lake Bohinj, less famous but even more serene — a glacial lake nestled in the Triglav National Park, surrounded by forests and peaks.
Here, you can take a rowboat to the island, hike to nearby waterfalls, or simply breathe in the alpine stillness.
Ljubljana: Europe’s Loveliest Little Capital
Charming, walkable, and packed with character, Ljubljana is a city you’ll fall for instantly. It’s full of outdoor cafes, leafy riverbanks, and bridges that seem made for slow wandering. During our stay, you'll get to know its hidden courtyards, lively markets, and street art — all guided by locals who know its soul.
We also leave time to explore at your own pace. Whether it’s a trip to the castle, a quiet gallery, or a glass of wine beside the Ljubljanica River, Ljubljana invites you to slow down and savour it.
Triglav National Park: A Playground for Nature Lovers
Named after the country’s highest peak, Triglav National Park is Slovenia’s outdoor heartland. Think limestone gorges, mountain meadows, wild rivers, and dramatic valleys. It’s where we take you for scenic drives, light hikes, and the kind of panoramic views that stop you in your tracks.
Whether you’re a seasoned trekker or just want to dip your toes into the wilderness, we’ll guide you to the most breathtaking — and peaceful — corners of the park.
Coastal Slovenia: Piran and the Adriatic Charm
Slovenia may only have 46km of coastline, but it more than makes up for it in charm. On our tours, we visit Piran, a picture-perfect seaside town where terracotta roofs tumble down to a Venetian harbour. You’ll wander ancient streets, taste fresh seafood, and soak up Adriatic sunsets without the crowds of Italy or Croatia.
Nearby Koper offers a more local flavour, with its lively squares and markets, while salt pans and nature reserves add ecological interest to the coast.
Hidden Villages and Wine Country
Some of the most magical moments on our Slovenia tours happen in places you’ve never heard of — tiny hilltop villages, tucked-away wine cellars, and countryside lanes where time slows right down.
In regions like Vipava Valley and Karst, you’ll meet winemakers, try local varietals, and learn about Slovenia’s deep-rooted food culture. Think hearty stews, artisan cheeses, and desserts like potica — all enjoyed in the company of those who made them.
