Day 3: Breathtaking Lake Bled
Travel with your guide out of the city to Lake Bled, whose emerald green waters combine with the looming peaks of the Alps to create an idyllic natural setting. On arrival, board an old-fashioned, hand-propelled gondola known as a pletna for a private cruise across Lake Bled to the small island in its center. Here you find the Church of the Assumption, whose 15th-century belfry is said to bring good luck to those who ring it. Returning to the shore, visit the castle whose viewing platform offers absolutely breathtaking views of the mountains, lake and countryside. Return to Ljubljana after lunch at your leisure.
