Very nice day. Friendly guide, small van. we went to the castle then to the lakeside. plenty of time to walk or take the boat to the island. Beautiful place and we were lucky with the weather.
Amazing experience!

Exceptionally awesome guide who spoke great English, informed us of the stories about Bled and drove in a very safe manner. Everything we stopped he would get the step out from the back to help us out of the vehicle, its the littke things that make a difference. Time in the castle and at the lake was ample to achieve what we had set out to do. We think his name was Emil, apologies if we've got it wrong. We were greeted by a friendly warm man.
Nice, manageable day trip for the elderly

The Whatsapp coordinator, Emsud, and the driver, Emil, were all very friendly, responsive, and helpful. It was a good value for the cost. We opted into all the extra stuff, such as Bled Castle's interior, and the boat to the island, but not the church interior (we didn't have enough time).
I recommend viator. Tour...

The driver/ guide arrived on time. A beautiful drive to the lake. We went to the fortress first. Great first views of the lake from up there. We went down to the lake and had two hours to enjoy the area. The weather was crystal clear perfection all day. The photo options were fantastic. Thanks to the driver/ guide (sorry, forgot his name). He was great and very accommodating all day. So nice to have a relaxing day at the end of a long vacation. Perfect way to finish an incredible month long Adriatic adventure.
Disappointing service

We had a lovely driver, Emil. He was spot on with timings and sharing information with us. However, the tour organisers slipped up badly. We saw the castle then went on to Lake Bled. Emil explained everything to us and said he would see us in 3 hours. Well, we were all so disappointed to find out that there were no boat trips at 16:20/30ish. It was a very loooooooong 3 hours, especially as it got dark. I was particularly disappointed as I contacted the tour company at 16:30 but they failed to respond to any messages for a number of hours. They have now offered me a refund but it still felt like a wasted afternoon.
Okay

Lake Bled is beautiful. Unfortunately, it rained quite heavily in the afternoon and we had to take cover for an hour in a nearby cafe. My wife and I really wanted to take a stroll around the lake and go on a boat trip. The trip could have been more wonderful if we had gone in the morning instead but it was changed to the afternoon by provider. Overall 6/10

You can overlook the island from the castle, you can walk around the lake, you can take the boat to the island, no matter where you see the island , it is so beautiful.
