A beautiful place to visit. Well organised excursion and as long as it should. The very polite lady driver provided a lot of interesting info about Slovenia's past and useful tips for travelers.
Beautiful Views of Lake Bled

Lake Bled is beautiful and definitely worth a visit. The tour itself left on time and brought us to the little village where you can pay to board a little boat to go to the island (you have to pay extra to go inside of the church on the island, 12euro). The boat fee was 20euro cash only not included in the tour fee. We decided to take a walk around the lake instead and really enjoyed the views of the church and castle while others on our tour went to the island. We then went to the castle, 18euro per person not included in the tour, and had a little over an hour to walk around. The views are wonderful and when you buy the castle ticket from the tour guide you get a slice of cream cake included - the dessert is very delicious. I wish the castle was included in the tour ticket price because if you don't pay to go to the island or pay to go into the castle, you are paying a lot of money just to go out to Lake Bled. You could easily get a public bus for less than 10euro roundtrip to Lake Bled and walk around at your own pace. This tour is probably better in summer months when the area is more crowded and you want to have transportation scheduled.

Great trip. Lake Bled was absolutely beautiful. Our guide Micha (hope I’ve spelt that right) was very knowledgable and friendly, and extremely helpful at the parts of the tour where an extra charge was needed. He stepped right in to handle it for us and nab us a freebie of a delicious cream cake at the castle. Very happy and we would recommend this trip to anyone thinking of visiting the lake. It’s well worth your time to see.
