Skocjan caves, Piran & Predjama castle | Private trip from Ljubljana
Product code: 6599 Discover the Slovenian coast and the Karst region. The first stop are the UNESCO listed Skocjan Caves, one of the largest and most fascinating karstic sites in Europe with the Reka River running 200 m below the surface. Next stop is at one of the local taverns for the famous Karst air-dried prosciutto tasting; we like to think it is one of the best prosciuttos in the world, accompanied with the local wine Teran – produced only in this region.
Head on to for a short stop at Lipica, the homeland of the white Lipizzaner – famous horse of the Spanish riding school in Vienna. Pass the coastal towns of Koper, Izola and Portoroz and reach everyone’s favourite spot on the Slovenian coast – Piran. Get lost in its medieval narrow streets and houses, enjoy some free time over an exquisite seafood meal in one of the many local restaurants or cafes.
One last photostop at Predjama Castle. Discover the secrets of the largest cave castle (Guinnes World Records!), located on a 123-meter high cliff, and learn about the local Robin Hood legendary knight Erazem.
