How far is Bled jezero station from the main tourist center of Bled? Are there any means to reach there or does one need to necessarily walk it up? I am intending to take an early morning train of 6.27 am to Nova gorica. Would it be possible with luggage?

Please advise.

Hello everyone,

Wanted one clarity regarding train travels in Slovenia. For a lot of destinations, I can see a layover at some station. For example, trains between Ljubljana and Bled halt at Jesenice. My question is does this involve a change of train? As in do I need to get off at Jesenice and take another train onward to Bled or wait in the same train which after a halt carries on to Bled?

Also, would it be difficult to travel by trains with luggage? Are they crowded?

Anything else I need to keep in mind?

Thanks So much!!

We are going from Vienna to Portorose by train but the last station is Koper. I am sure there is a busline from Koper to Portorose but the problem is we have a small dog with us and in some countries pets are not allowed in busses.
So I need to know: are pets allowed in Slovenian busses and if not how much would a taxi ride more or less cost.

Can you rent a paddle boat for two people on Bled lake please?

I was planning to visit skocjan caves from Ljubljana by train and then continue by train from Divaca to Sezanna followed by a bus to Trieste. In this regard I had several queries.

2. How difficult is it to get a train from Divaca for Sezenna?
3. How frequent are buses from Sezenna to Trieste?
4. Approximate idea of cost for each ticket. that is Ljubljana - Divaca, Divaca - Sezenna and Sezenna - Trieste?

Any other suggestions are appreciated. My travel time would be in somewhere September.

Thanks in advance for all the help.

Hi all,

I am planning a trip to Bled in September and was interested in visiting Vintgar Gorge, lake Bohinj and do white water rafting at Soca river. Can someone please suggest the best itinerary for the same? Please note that I am not willing to drive in the country and would prefer public transport over taxis.

1. Are there any buses running from Bled to Vintgar gorge and back? If yes, how is the frequency and what are the timings?
2. Should I make a day trip to Bohinj or should I make a stay? Again, are there buses or di I need a private vehicle to reach?
3. For white water rafting should I book from Bled or go to Bovec? I have heard of 3glav adventures at Bled. But are there any other (better and cheaper) alternatives?

Also, any other suggestions are welcome.

Thanks so much for all the help.

Cheers!!

Hi all, I'm planning the final touches for my holiday starting on Friday and would like to know if I should pre-book a taxi at Sežana train station or whether they will meet the train from Ljubljana. My plan is to get a taxi from Sežana to Villa Opcina and get the Funicular tram to Trieste. I will be doing this on Friday 15 September. Also, do you know if there is any risk on getting this train (with 1 connection): 09.40 - 11.10 Ljubljana - Divaca 11.16 Divaca - Sežana There are no other reasonable timetables for the train (only 6am) Many thanks, Natalie
