Full Day Tour of Postojna Cave and Ljubljana
Start the day with a visit to Postojna Cave, one of Slovenia’s most well-known natural landmarks. This extensive karst cave system features an electric train that carries visitors through underground passages filled with limestone formations shaped over millennia. The guided tour lasts about 90 minutes and includes both the train ride and a walk along a well-maintained path. The cave maintains a steady temperature of 10°C year-round, so warm clothing and sturdy footwear are recommended. Along the way, you'll encounter unique features such as towering columns, delicate formations, and the olm, a rare cave-dwelling amphibian. Later in the day, continue to Ljubljana, the capital of Slovenia. The city is known for its relaxed pace, walkable streets, and architectural elements designed by Jože Plečnik. The Ljubljanica River runs through the city center, bordered by green spaces and open-air markets. Reminders of the former Jewish community can be found in street names like Zidovska ulica (Jewish Street) and Zidovska steza (Jewish Passage), once the heart of the medieval ghetto. While the historical community was never large, its presence dates back to at least the 12th century. Today, Ljubljana’s only active synagogue operates in the city center, established in 2021. After your tour, make your way to your hotel for your overnight stay.
