Amazing natural wonder- but a real disappointment in the way the visits are conducted
These caves are absolutely breathtaking - a fabulous natural wonder. We were however extremely disappointed by the train ride- super fast- not allowing you to enjoy much of it. Then the guide takes you into a real marathon… you need to follow the group/ you don’t hear the comments and he / she does not wait for people. Feels like a money making place - speed and numbers of tourists seem to be the guiding principles. A real big disappointment - you have no time to absorb the wonderful caves - super frustrating experience. Go to the Divica caves instead - small group- lovely guide and plenty of time to enjoy
Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re glad to hear that you found the caves themselves breathtaking. We’re sorry that the way the cave visit is organised did not meet your expectations. The train ride, cave tour, group size, pace and commentary are operated directly by Postojna Cave and are unfortunately outside our control. Our service for this excursion was focused on providing your private transportation and guide/driver service from Ljubljana, and we appreciate you choosing us for that part of your visit. We nevertheless appreciate your feedback, as it is useful for us when advising future guests about what to expect from the cave’s organised tour. Best regards, Day Trips From Ljubljana www.daytripfromljubljana.com

Adventure Holiday Tours and guide/ driver Tarun make Postojna Cave visit memorable
The trip was marvellous. We had an excellent guide in Tarun from the excellent Adventure Holiday Tours. Tarun is very friendly and knowledgeable. We had a great time with him over two days ( he also took us to Lake Bled) He gave me details on how to book tickets for the caves in advance. We got in for first tour of day. He walked us up to the entrance to cave and got us in quickly. The caves are wonderful and breathtaking. We got onto a mini train which took us on a 15 minute ride to the centre of the cave. We then had a guide take us on a 60 minute guided tour in the heart of the cave system. The formations were amazing the best I have ever seen. At the end of the tour you enter a unique underground Post Office in the heart of the caves,where you can get a postcard which is sent from the cave with a unique postmark. Books and gifts. A 15 minute train ride returns you to the surface where you can purchase photo taken when you enter the cave. Dress for cooler temperatures, it can feel cold. Also good stout shoes are a good idea. Tarun meets you at the exit and there was a chance to stop off at a beautiful Alm style cafe on your return. Tarun is brilliant try to get him, you will not regret this and he is sure to make your trip memorable.

Postojna Cave Day Trip From Ljubljana: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ljubljana.
How much does Postojna Cave Day Trip From Ljubljana cost?
+
Prices start at $126 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 Postojna Cave Day Trip From Ljubljana take?
+
Plan for about 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 Postojna Cave Day Trip From Ljubljana worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 9 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 Postojna Cave Day Trip From Ljubljana?
+
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 Postojna Cave Day Trip From Ljubljana suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Postojna Cave Day Trip From Ljubljana?
+
Around 3 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 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Postojna Cave Day Trip From Ljubljana 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 Postojna Cave Day Trip From Ljubljana?
+
Included: Private transportation; English Speaking Driver; All Fees and Taxes; In-vehicle air conditioning; and Parking. Not included: Entrance Fee. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Postojna Cave Day Trip From Ljubljana include hotel pickup?
+

What languages is Postojna Cave Day Trip From Ljubljana offered in?
+
