    What you'll see and do

    1. Step into the lively Central Market of Ljubljana, designed by Jože Plečnik and at the heart of daily city life. Begin with a warm, freshly baked burek, followed by a shared plate of Slovenian cured meats, local cheeses, and house pickles, showcasing the country’s diverse regional flavours.

      20 minutes here

    2. Continue along the Ljubljanica River as it curves through the old town. Pause at the iconic Triple Bridge, Plečnik’s architectural signature, where three bridges open onto the city’s main square and connect centuries of history with modern Ljubljana.

      20 minutes here

    3. Make a stop at a small, family-run speciality shop for a guided tasting of Slovenian olive oil, pumpkin seed oil, and truffles. Learn how these ingredients shape the country’s cuisine, from the coast to the forests, through flavour, tradition, and craft.

      20 minutes here

    4. Ljubljana Old Town

      Pause in front of Ljubljana’s Town Hall, a striking blend of Gothic and Baroque architecture. Hear stories of the city’s medieval roots, civic traditions, and how food and trade helped shape the historic centre.

      20 minutes here

    5. Ljubljana

      Wander through cobbled streets and quiet squares of the old town as we make our way uphill toward the castle. Along the route, taste a classic Slovenian sausage, simple and hearty, reflecting the country’s Alpine influences.

      20 minutes here

    6. Ljubljana Old Town

      Reach a traditional restaurant near the castle to enjoy a comforting bowl of Slovenian goulash served with štruklji — delicate, hand-rolled dumplings that have been part of local kitchens for generations. Pair the dish with a glass of Slovenian dessert wine to finish on a rich, indulgent note.

      20 minutes here

    7. Arrive at Ljubljana Castle, rising above the city. Take in panoramic views over red rooftops and the river below, and close the tour where Ljubljana’s layered history, landscape, and flavours come together.

    Excellent food tour!

    Our guide Peter was absolutely wonderful. He was friendly, extremely knowledgeable, and very passionate about Slovenian food and culture! We tried some delicious dishes and learned about Ljubljana’s traditions

    Response from the operator: Thank you for exploring Ljubljana with us! Slovenian food and traditions deserve to be shared with passion, and we're glad you got a delicious taste of both. We hope you'll join Secret Food Tours again in another city soon.

    Worth a try.

    Ksenija was very good and knowledgeable. My only slight complaint was that the restaurants we tried food at were very close together. I would have preferred less food and more time between eating.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your feedback! It’s wonderful to hear that Ksenija’s knowledge made the tour enjoyable. The food stops are intentionally located close together in Ljubljana’s city center, allowing guests to explore the local culinary scene while sampling a variety of traditional Slovenian specialties and wines. We appreciate your thoughts on the pacing and amount of food, and we hope you enjoyed discovering Ljubljana’s food culture. We’d love to welcome you on another Secret Food Tour in the future!

    A must do food tour

    I’ve now done a number of Secret Food Tours across Asia and Europe, and the Ljubljana tour led by Ksenija was excellent. Ksenija was warm, engaging and knowledgeable, creating a fun and relaxed experience from start to finish. We enjoyed a fantastic selection of food tastings at a variety of local spots, while also learning more about Ljubljana and Slovenian culture. What I particularly enjoyed was being taken to places you might not normally discover as a tourist. It was a great way to experience the local food scene and see a different side of Ljubljana. I would highly recommend this tour — a wonderful experience.

    Response from the operator: From neighborhood stops to local specialties, the tour offers plenty to take in. Your feedback tells us the experience came together well. We hope to welcome you back to Secret Food Tours!

    Energetic, Delicious, Informative!!!

    We really enjoyed our time with Ksenija!! She is so full of enthusiasm and energy! She shared so much information about the city and country and the food, willingly answering all our questions. We loved hearing about her daily life and her own cooking. Everything was delicious and well spaced so we didn't feel stuffed. I really appreciated her willingness to help us out even after the tour. Would definitely do another route with her!

    Response from the operator: We’re happy to hear the tour worked well for your visit. Our team enjoyed having you along and sharing a few local recommendations. Thank you for spending part of your day with Secret Food Tours!

    Ljubljana Food Tour with 10 Authentic Food Tastings & Wine: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ljubljana.

    How much does Ljubljana Food Tour with 10 Authentic Food Tastings & Wine cost?

    +

    Prices start at $111 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Ljubljana usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Ljubljana Food Tour with 10 Authentic Food Tastings & Wine take?

    +

    Plan for about 3.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Ljubljana is not rushed.

    Is Ljubljana Food Tour with 10 Authentic Food Tastings & Wine worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 76 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 38 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Ljubljana, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Ljubljana Food Tour with 10 Authentic Food Tastings & Wine?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Ljubljana Food Tour with 10 Authentic Food Tastings & Wine suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Ljubljana Food Tour with 10 Authentic Food Tastings & Wine?

    +

    Around 13 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Ljubljana can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Ljubljana and add a light layer if any part of the 3.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Ljubljana Food Tour with 10 Authentic Food Tastings & Wine start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Ljubljana within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Ljubljana?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Ljubljana experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Slovenia in One Day: Small-Group Bled, Postojna Cave & Predjama, Postojna Cave and Predjama Castle - Entrance Tickets Included, Ljubljana Small Group Food Walking Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Ljubljana?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Ljubljana?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Ljubljana Food Tour with 10 Authentic Food Tastings & Wine?

    +

    Included: One glass of white wine; One glass of Keros; Freshly made Burek; One glass of Muscat Wine; and Olive oil, pumkin seed oil and truffle tasting. Not included: Guide's Tip. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
