Frequently asked questions
Do I need a passport for Slovenia?
Croatia and Slovenia are both in Schengen — an ID card is enough for EU citizens; others should carry a passport.
Is the pletna boat ride included?
The pletna is paid on the spot (about €18 per person) — we book your time slot so you don't wait.
Is the tour possible in winter?
Yes — Bled is magical under snow and our vehicles carry winter equipment. The pletna doesn't run on ice, but the castle and Ljubljana are open year-round.
Can the tour end in Ljubljana or at an airport?
Of course — we often drop guests at their Ljubljana accommodation or at Ljubljana / Zagreb airports after the tour. Just tell us your plan.
