Travel with us to the heart of Eastern Europe on this 5-night short break to Slovenia. Situated between the Alps and the Mediterranean Sea, Slovenia boasts astounding natural beauty and cultural wealth, and we’ll experience it all on this spectacular holiday. From our base in the charming and compact capital of Ljubljana, we’ll tour the incredible Postojna Caves in the country’s expansive Karst region, travel to the small stretch of Slovenian coastline on the Mediterranean to visit the picturesque towns of Piran and Koper, and discover the breathtaking scenery of the Slovenian Alps as we visit the country’s largest lake, Lake Bohinj, as well as its most famous, Bled.
