Today you will leave Zagreb at your preference and drive to Bled and Ljubljana. It takes about 2 hours to get to Ljubljana.
Ljubljana is the capital of Croatia’s neighboring country- Slovenia. Ljubljana is built on the river Sava and its center is very nice for walking.
We suggest visiting medieval Ljubljana’s castle at the top of the local hill above the town. To get there we suggest walking while taking pictures. From the castle, you will have a nice view over Ljubljana and neighboring are in Slovenia.
You will explore more of Slovenia and visit one of the highlights of nature in Slovenia-Lake Bled.
Bled is one of the most famous attractions in Slovenia and it is known for a little island in the middle of the lake.
You will visit the island and see the Pilgrimage Church of the Assumption of Mary also known as The Church of Mary the Queen of Our Lady of The Lake! Once on the island, you will climb 99 stairs to come to the Church area!
The island is used on many occasions for weeding purposes since it is in a picturesque area!
Apart from the little islet, Bled is known for a castle on a high rock that dates from the 11 century! You will visit the castle above the lake from where you will have a beautiful overview of the lake area!
The fortress is made out of a few buildings including the little winery where you can taste some wine.
At the top, there is a restaurant, with a panoramic view, and if preferred you can have a meal here before you go back to Ljubljana!
Zagreb – Ljubljana : cca 2h
Ljubljana- Bled: cca 40 min

The real deal
If you are coming to Croatia I heartily recommend Roberto P / Soul of Croatia to make your trip memorable and trouble free. Robi is an excellent organizer and very knowledgeable guide. He designed a cycling trip that gave me and my husband just the right amount of challenge and I finished feeling great. Croatia is so beautiful and he is incredibly generous with true insider info and connections. I will never forget the experiences and memories he made for us - and I have never before laughed so hard on a guided trip. I truly felt like he brought the Soul of Croatia to us.

Amazing vacation in Croatia
First time that we've been moved to make a post like this but just returned from a week long cycling trip in Croatia that is easily among the best vacations we have ever taken largely due to the expert organization and guidance provided by Robi of Soul of Croatia. Every day was truly a new adventure highlighted by beautiful rides, exceptional views, gorgeous weather, wonderful local food and people and Robi's commitment to ensuring that we fully enjoyed and appreciated the diversity and rich history that this beautiful country offers. Like everybody else in our group, we cannot wait to make a return trip and highly recommend Robi/Soul of Croatia to any others contemplating a trip to this part of the world. Thanks again Robi and we look forward to seeing you again soon. Michael and Joanne K

A Most Amazing Cycling Trip
Our cycling trip with Roberto was one of the best trips I have ever taken. And this is the second cycling trip I have done with Roberto. I didn’t possibly think he could outdo the excellence of the first trip, but Roberto did. The second trip also exceeded all of my expectations. Our group of eight friends were taken on a private Cycling tour carefully customized to meet all of our needs. Roberto picked daily Cycling adventures which brought us to exquisitely beautiful places in Croatia, and each day was more beautiful than the last. Roberto’s knowledge of Croatia, his connections to the local people, his passion for the history and customs of every place that we visited, could not be replicated by anyone else. Roberto personally took us on a tour of the old city of Dubrovnik, as well as the city of Ston, and he constantly provided us with knowledge of the local areas. Roberto chose restaurants for us, which were excellent and which served traditional delicious Croatian cuisine. Roberto had personal connections to many of the restaurants and wineries we visited which meant we were provided with the highest level of service. Both before, and after our trip, Roberto assisted us with any other excursions and bookings we were interested in. After our trip was complete he personally took us on a boat tour where we swam in amazing caves. It was an exceptional trip, and I cannot recommend Roberto and Soul of Croatia highly enough to anybody who would like to experience Croatia as it should be experienced.
