Literally built on the side of a mountain, Predjama Castle guards some big secrets. This exciting tour takes you deep into the citadel before also heading to the mysterious Postojna Cave system.
Predjama Castle and Postojna Cave Trip
We'll depart from the Eurostars uHotel in Ljubljana and head south, crossing the beautiful natural landscapes that surround the Slovenian capital.
After driving for about an hour, we reach Postojna, Europe's most visited cave system. The reason why the cave is so popular is its spectacular stalactites and stalagmites which line the ceiling and floor of the cavern. There are also many other secrets to discover in the cave, such as the amazing acoustic sound. While we're in Postojna, we'll also be treated to a tasting of local spirits.
When the guided tour of the cave has finished, we head to the nearby Predjama Castle, located only 15 minutes away. There are many majestic ancient castles around central Europe, but the one found at Predjama is unique. This citadel is constructed into the rock face of a mountain!
As we tour the fort, we'll hear about the legend of Erasmus of Lueg. This Barron, nicknamed the 'Robin Hood of Slovenia' was betrayed and killed by one of his own men.
Once our guided tour of Predjama castle has finished, we'll return to the meeting point in Ljubljana. Arrival in the capital of Slovenia is scheduled for 5.5 hours after departure.
