Highlights

What sets Predjama Castle apart is its extraordinary location, built into the mouth of a large cave on a towering cliff.

The castle’s history dates back to the 13th century when a small fortress was constructed on the site. However, the castle, as it stands today, is mainly the result of renovations and expansions carried out in the 16th century. The castle has a rich and intriguing history, filled with legends and tales of knights, sieges, and hidden passages. The architecture of Predjama Castle is a captivating blend of Renaissance and Gothic styles.

Exploring Predjama Castle allows visitors to immerse themselves in the medieval atmosphere, walk through its ancient corridors, and imagine the lives of its past inhabitants.

Could not have been better! - Best part of our Euro tour so far! We knew little about Slovenia and David was very knowledgeable about history, geography, politics and culture. It was a fascinating and easy no hassle introduction to this amazing country. The cave was unbelievably beautiful and the experience well organized. We will seek him out when we return!

Cave and castle slovenia - Tour guide is very friendly and took us to the castle and caves. He waited for us even to have a lunch at the cave. We booked the tour so we can get off the cruise ships and hop right on. Our suitcases were in the back so it was very convenient. He then dropped us off at our hotel and helped unload our bags when tour was over. Very nice guy and I highly recommend using him for private tour. Almost same price as if we booked a bus tour but would be less convenient and not great friendly tour guide.

Fun and educational. - The cave and midevil castle were AWESOME! My husband, son and myself all enjoyed this experience. The cave was very cold so be prepared for that. Our driver David made the visit very easy by picking us up at our hotel, and providing tickets to the sights. We would recommend this experience.

Fun shore excursion - We had a great visit to the caves and castle, both of which lived up to the pictures and felt unique. Was neat to see a bit of the Solvinian countryside on the drive there. Trieste was our first shore excursion and we were running a little late getting off the ship (life with teens...), but our guide managed to get us tickets and then rearrange things so we could see the castle first, then do the caves, and we had enough time to get both in. Trieste the ship docks right in town and we had time to walk around the main town area before getting back on. Very good experience and felt well worth not being part of the cattle heard on the cruise excursion busses.

Amazing Slovenian cave experience - Tour operator (David) was wiling to pick us up from our hotel which was welcomed.. He was a comforting and confident driver and did not cause any car sickness. Castello di Predjama was very interesting – built into a cave. The sefl-guided audio tour was excellent. The highlight was the Postojna Cave, which was much bigger and more impressive than we had imagined, and seeing the "baby dragon' (Olm, salamander), which had been a lifelong ambitition.

Great experience. - The cave and the castle experience were both extraordinary. I’ve never experienced anything like this. Everyone was very nice too. Our driver David was very nice but we had no air conditioning in the back of the van which we should have had but he was very nice too.
