Enjoyable day in Lake Bled and Ljubljana - Our guide and driver was Dean. Safe driver, full of information about the history of Slovenia. Beautiful drive to Lake Bled. Plenty of time to hike around for great pictures and to enjoy coffee and the famous cream cake. Ljubljana is a beautiful city. Hiked up to the castle and sat by the riverside enjoying wine and local treats. Dean was very friendly and made the tour very enjoyable. Well worth it.

A wonderful day in Slovenia! - We had a great time on this shore excursion. It was very easy to find the guides after getting off the ship. The guides were knowledgeable and passionate. I wish we had more time at Lake Bled but there was traffic and that delayed us quite a bit. Ljubljana was also lovely and I am very happy to have done this tour and would recommend it to anyone who’s considering it. Just a warning, you will want to come back and stay a few days or even weeks in Slovenia in the future, because 1 day does not do it justice!

A must read excursion! - Our tour guide was Ernie, who was extremely knowledgeable about his home country of Slovenia. His pride of his country was a welcomed greet for us to experience. He receives high praise from us.

Great Day Trip from Trieste - This was a great day trip from the Triste Cruise port. The tour operator (Koper Tours) was great with communication and easy to find when we got off the ship. We really enjoyed ourselves and would definitely recommend this. The only down side was that we didn't realize we would not have time to rent a boat and make it out to the island in Bled Lake. We only had about 45 minutes at the lake, enough to take pictures and get a piece of cream cake, but the boat ride was not possible within that time frame.

Lots of travel, little gain - A lot of coach travel to have such a short time at lake, guide told us we didn't have time to visit Castle.
At Ljubljana the guide took us around the closed areas, everywhere closed on a Sunday, not a good day to visit!!
Failed to show us the nicest part near the canal.
Not good value for money.

Slovenia Rip-off - We were told that we could not go to Lake Bled because of heavy traffic.
Meanwhile, all the other tourists at our hotel went to Lake Bled, and the locals laughed hysterically when we told them the traffic was the cause of half of our tour being canceled. Our tour guide drove us to Ljubljana and told us to take three hours to explore the city on our own and meet him back after lunch. He told us it was too much traffic to pick us up at our hotel, and after asking to be dropped off, he said he would see if he could drop us off.

Viator keeps our money for a falsely advertised tour and loses our business and recommendation forever by not correcting - The tour was to be a Max of 15 people and instead it was a tour bus of 60-70. I would have booked a private tour had I known. We didn’t discover there would be more people until after we departed and were told we were going elsewhere to pickup others. We ended up returning 2 hours later than told.
I do not blame the guide - he did a decent job but Viator support handled this so poorly we will never use their service again. This was a total Bait and Switch
