A fairytale hilltop castle shrouded in secrets and a picture-perfect lake... discover the beauty, history and charm of Bled, one of Slovenia's most famous towns!
Bled Guided Tour Itinerary
After having been picked up from your hotel in Bled, you'll be taken to its iconic Medieval castle, perched upon a rocky outcrop overlooking the town and its lake.
Enjoy a fascinating guided tour of Bled Castle, as your expert English-speaking guide takes you on a journey through the history of Slovenia in the Middle Ages. This magical castle, which also has a drawbridge over a dramatic moat, has inspired various stories and fairy tales since its first construction in the 10th century.
Having explored the mystical ancient building, you'll head down to the picturesque Lake Bled, where you'll embark on a delightful cruise across the calm waters in a traditional wooden boat known as a Pletna. Sail to the coasts of Blejski Otok, Slovenia's only natural island, home to a historic pilgrimage church.
Your guided tour will come to an end at the original departure dock. Back on dry land, you'll have 45 minutes of free time to have lunch (not included) or to stroll along the beautiful banks of the lake. Finally, you'll be taken back to your hotel in Bled.
