What to expect

A trip to Bled must be a part of any visit to Slovenia. Take this half-day tour and visit Lake Bled, the charming Alpine resort at the very edge of the Julian Alps. Explore Bled Castle, perched high above Lake Bled’s tranquil waters and admire the views of the lake from several viewpoints at the castle. Ride a traditional ‘pletna’ boat to Bled Island, where you can visit the church or try local sweet treats at the cafe. Enjoy a perfect day sipping coffee and eating "Kremšnita", the traditional Bled custard cream cake, at the lakeside.

This tour to Lake Bled treats you with a traditional pletna boat ride to Bled Island, a top attraction in Slovenia. Pletna boats are unique to Lake Bled and operated by a single rower with two long oars. Following the boat ride, you get some time to explore the little island and enjoy the stunning views of the surrounding area. Optionally, you can enter the Church of the Assumption and even ring the wishing bell, which has been ringing over Lake Bled since 1534.

Your guide will also take you to visit Bled Castle and the castle museum, which gives you an insight into the history of the entire area. The tour will show you some of the best viewpoints from where you'll be able to admire magnificent views over Lake Bled and Bled Island and take beautiful photos. Bled castle is more than a thousand years old, and one of the most spectacular castles in Slovenia. On the shore of Lake Bled it is possible to take a short walk and watch the majestic swans and playful ducks swimming on the lake. Or you can relax and take a break in one of the coffee shops - where you need to try kremšnita, the traditional Bled custard cream cake.
