Two perspectives on one charming city. Our private Ljubljana Walk & Boat Tour combines the essentials of a city walking tour with a scenic Ljubljanica River boat ride. It is a relaxed way to discover the centre while spending less time on your feet.
Begin with around 70 minutes exploring the Old Town’s squares, bridges and architectural highlights. Then step aboard the handcrafted wooden boat Ljubljanica for a 50-minute guided ride through the centre and out towards the greener riverbanks.
Great guides make the journey. Ljubljana’s original and largest walking tour company brings engaging stories, deep local knowledge and a clear introduction to the city’s history. Your licensed guide accompanies your group on the walk and the boat.
