5.00We had the most beautiful experience on this tour! From the moment we met our local guide, everything felt personal, warm, and welcoming. Walking by the shores of Lake Bled was like stepping into a postcard — the emerald water, the swans, the fresh Alpine air… it was simply breathtaking. The visit to Bled Castle was a true highlight. The view from the top is something I will remember forever — you can see the entire lake and the little island in the middle, it's like a fairytale! Our guide shared not only interesting history, but also local legends and stories that made the place come alive. She clearly loves what she does, and it shows. This wasn’t just a sightseeing trip — it was a real connection to Slovenian culture and nature. Peaceful, inspiring, and so well organized. If you are looking for an authentic, guided experience around Lake Bled, don’t miss this tour. You’ll come home with amazing memories and a happy heart. 💚 Thank you so much for this unforgettable day!

5.00We had a great time on this walking tour with Tanya Guide. Tanya used special audio equipment so we could always hear her, even when we walked a little far. The group was small, it felt like a private tour. Tanya is a friendly and professional guide. She told us many interesting stories and history about the places. We also visited the castle and made beautiful photos there. The castle is very nice with great views. I really recommend this Lake Bled walking tour with Tanya Guide. It is a beautiful trip with personal attention and good sound system. It was one of the best parts of our Slovenia holiday!
Lovely Tour by the Lake Bled in June!

5.00We had a nice walk around the lake. I liked that Tanya used special audio equipment. It helped us listen to the guide while walking. There were few people, so the tour was almost private. We visited the castle and made wonderful photos. I really liked the tour a lot.
