City tours with a twist
You can tour many Slovenian towns and cities with a local tour guide. These guides will show you the most fascinating places and share interesting stories about how locals lived in the past and how they live now. Some cities located by rivers or on the coast can be discovered from the water, too – via tourist boats, traditional rafts, or on modern stand-up paddle boards. You can take guided tours by bicycle and ride to places of interest. And some tours are even more memorable due to their unusual character and unique concept. We offer some exciting opportunities to experience towns and cities in a unique way.
A journey to Ptuj's Roman period
In the oldest town in Slovenia, Ptuj, the main attractions and mysteries of the town’s history will be revealed by no other than the ancient Romans. Take a walk discovering the traces of the Roman town of Petoviona in the company of guides wearing clothing that is a replica of the clothing worn in the Antiquity, and learn how people in Ptuj lived 1,950 years ago. There’s also something for wine lovers, who can enjoy a Roman version of wine, enriched with herbs and spices.

Novo Mesto from the water
Although you can explore local attractions from the river perspective in many towns and cities, experiencing Novo Mesto from the River Krka is something special. Take Rudolf's raft past the old town centre and see Breg, the most picturesque part of town, and float past a cliff on which a Franciscan Monastery is perched. While on the raft, in addition to exploring the attractions of Novo Mesto, you can also taste true Cviček wine from the Dolenjska region, and you’ll be entertained by an accordion player.
