THURSDAY | We will meet at the airport at 4.00pm for our direct Air Malta flight to Ljubljana departing at 6.30pm and arriving in Slovenia at 8.30pm. Upon arrival, we will proceed to our central hotel in Kranjska Gora and check-in. FRIDAY I On today’s full-day optional excursion, we will cross over to Italy and drive towards Lago di Fusine and Tarvisio. On our way, we will first make a stop at Lake Jasna, located just 2km from Kranjska Gora. Lake Jasna is a stunning alpine lake with breathtaking views of the high mountain peaks as a dramatic backdrop. We will then proceed to Lago di Fusine, where we will find two breathtaking lakes. We later make our way to Tarvisio and visit Piazza di Unità. Time for lunch (extra) before proceeding towards Venzone, a small medieval village in the province of Udine, famous for its lavender shops. SATURDAY | Today, our optional full-day excursion will take us to explore the town of Bled, known as the pearl of the Slovenian Alpine region. We will be visiting Bled Castle (entrance extra), and then we shall proceed to Bohinj, the largest glacier lake in Slovenia, situated in the region of the Julian Alps. We will take a cable car (extra – weather permitting) up to Mount Vogel and admire the stupendous view as we reach the summit. SUNDAY | Today, our optional full-day excursion will take us to visit Maribor and Ptuj. Maribor is the second biggest town in Slovenia, and in character, it is totally different from Ljubljana and the western parts of the country. We will then have some free time to enjoy Maribor before we proceed to visit the oldest town in Slovenia, Ptuj, which is located just a short drive away. We will explore its beauty in a walking tour through the town and visit Ptuj Castle (entrance extra), the Provost Church and the old City Hall. MONDAY | We will board our coach for a full-day optional excursion and cross over to Austria. First, we visit Velden, the famous and vibrant village on the shore of Lake Wörthersee. We then proceed to the 17th century town of Klagenfurt in the southern part of Austria which has been awarded the prestigious Europa Nostra Diploma for its restored arcaded Renaissance courtyards. Located on the eastern bank of Lake Wörthersee, Carinthia’s capital makes a wonderful destination thanks to its cultural treasures and nearby mountains. The Neuer Platz is dominated by the Lindwurm, a winged dragon, which is the emblem of the city and was modelled on the dragon of a local legend. TUESDAY | Today, our full-day optional excursion will take us through Predil Pass and towards a Beekeeping house, where we will learn about their methods and also enjoy a tasting of their products (included). This will be followed by a lovely barbeque in this incredibly beautiful setting (drinks and lunch included). We will then proceed to Kozjak Waterfalls (extra), nicely set through a gorge where we will first cross an interesting wooden suspension bridge whilst admiring some more stunning views (the walk to the waterfalls is easy to moderate, however the last path to the waterfalls does not have any handles to hold on to). WEDNESDAY | This morning, we shall go on an optional full-day excursion to visit Ljubljana, the capital city of Slovenia. This friendly city has a baroque section of the old town, with narrow, cobbled streets nestled between the castle slopes and the river Ljubljanica. Highlights of the old town include the Cathedral of St. Nikolai, City Hall, Ljubljana Castle, and the three bridges. We shall first have a panoramic city tour followed by a walking tour. We will later have some free time to enjoy this beautiful city at leisure. THURSDAY | Our last day is planned for an optional half-day excursion to Skocjan Caves (entrance extra). Ranking among the most important caves in the world, the Skocjan Caves represent the most significant underground phenomena in both the Karst region and Slovenia. After we explore the caves, we return to the hotel to collect our luggages before we make our way to Ljubljana airport for our Air Malta flight departing at 9.20pm and arriving in Malta at 11.20pm.
