A superbly informative afternoon
The walking tour was about two hours long and was great. Matteo (our guide) was extremely knowledgeable (& funny) about a whole range of topics - culture, history, architecture, language, food, sports, etc.. so there was something for everyone. Despite the torrential rain, we had a brilliant afternoon. We even got to try the local berry liquor. Thanks 😊

Perfect for day trippers
I had a great an inciteful experience on this tour. Was perfect to learn abouht the history and cover the key parts of the city. It was extremely well run and easy to understand over the crowds. I had a lovely young woman (I belive her name was Louisa?!) who was very helpful and inclusive. She gave some great suggestions for food and a boat trip, which I decided to do and we’re both brilliant. I got a voucher for the boat trip too and a free shot so was more than happy. Would recommend!

Free Walking Tour with TinaTwo
We went to the free walking tour spontaneously, Tina 2 was an absolutely brilliant guide, she was so passionate about telling informations about Ljubljana, the Slovenian lifestyle and culture - she also recommended tips about where to eat or drink. You could really see how much she loves the city and her job :)

Interesting walking tour ..
The walking tour was with Vojka (Vodka 🙂) .. she was really great at explaining the history and showing all the main things to see. It went for about 2 hours and easy walking. Had cards you could take if you wanted to for discounts, a free drink on a river cruise to name a couple. Also had a small taste of 2 different drinks along the way. Recommend this tour ...

Ljubljana Walking Tour: Explore Top Sights & Hidden Gems: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ljubljana.
How much does Ljubljana Walking Tour: Explore Top Sights & Hidden Gems cost?
+
Prices start at $39 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 Walking Tour: Explore Top Sights & Hidden Gems take?
+
Plan for about 1.5 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 Walking Tour: Explore Top Sights & Hidden Gems worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Ljubljana, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Ljubljana Walking Tour: Explore Top Sights & Hidden Gems?
+
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 Walking Tour: Explore Top Sights & Hidden Gems suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Ljubljana Walking Tour: Explore Top Sights & Hidden Gems?
+
Around 2 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 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Ljubljana Walking Tour: Explore Top Sights & Hidden Gems 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.
