gregbJ9277AO, Sept 2024

An amazing day from start to finish. Greeted early by our fantastic guide Ernest P. who all day kept us informed with knowledgeable facts and humor. Told us of places of interest and places to try traditional Slovenian food. He gave us options so that we had the most amount of time in the appropriate sites. Overall day 10/10. Enrnest was the best !!!!!

    Bled is an Alpine town which represents one of the oldest and most beautiful tourist destinations in Slovenia. Its main attraction is the lake which surrounds Bled Island.
