Experience Ljubljana by Bike, Ljubljana

With a winding river, medieval castle, and plenty of historic allure, the tiny Slovenian capital delivers on its name, “of lovely appearance.” Add to that a healthy bike culture and a city center void of cars and motorized vehicles and it makes sense why the city continues to win awards for its commitment to being green.

And what better way to immerse yourself in Ljubljana's charm than on an entertaining bicycle tour—a convenient way to not only see the main sights of the pedestrian-friendly center but also a unique way to cover some ground without missing out on the local color. You'll connect with your guide on Slovenska street and hop on a city cruiser to set out and enjoy the capital from a different perspective.

You'll ride along the Ljubljanica river embankments to the oval-shaped Prešeren Square, the hub of Ljubljana's Old Town, and discover the historic Town Hall amid other architectural treats. You'll cruise along lesser-visited streets in the alternative Metelkova neighborhood, pedal through the beautifully manicured 19th-century Tivoli Park, and stop to check out ancient Roman ruins along the way, including the Roman wall and ruins of Emona (a Roman city that stood on the site of present-day Ljubljana over 2000 years ago).
