Slow travel, Slovenia style

History & Culture

Red-tiled roofs and green riverbanks, castles and fortresses, Art Nouveau architecture and nature nearby – rich new experiences await in Slovenia’s cosmopolitan cities. Take the opportunity to see  Ljubljana’s history-laden streets by bike or by paddleboard, before finishing the day with some fine dining and the discovery of local Slovenian wine. Or try the second-largest city, Maribor, for its romantic vineyards, an opportunity to venture into the city’s iconic subterranean wine cellar. Ease the mind with wooded trails and waterfalls amid primeval forest. Finish the trip by visiting Slovenia’s oldest city, Ptuj, along cobbled streets teeming with history.
