What an incredible guide and tour in Ljubljana! Lana shared stories and history — in a way that landed so well in this fine capital city. The finest moment was how she talked about the special bees, the care, protection of beekeepers here and overall care about the planet. There is a lot to love about Slovenia.
This was my first time with the free tour community and was really blown away.
Kudos to the team and especially to Lana was being a class act. I learned so much I wouldn’t know otherwise… even in these times of AI 😊

I had a wonderful time on the Ljubljana free community tour with Marianna. She was interesting, funny and incredibly engaging, and she made the whole tour so much fun. Her stories brought Ljubljana to life, and the time just flew by. I would definitely recommend Marianna to anyone wanting to discover Ljubljana in a relaxed and enjoyable way!

This was a very informative tour and a perfect introduction to the city. Vojka, our guide, was excellent. She had a great deal of knowledge about the city and shared it in perfect small and funny tidbits of information. Plus, she had pictures to complement the history she was sharing and gave us useful recommendations on places to visit and restaurants to try authentic Slovenian food. (coupons for different things as well!) Would highly recommend taking the tour to get to know the story of the city from a local's perspective because we often miss the story of the locations in front of us.

Ingrid was really great. She made sure we got to ask all of our questions and we really enjoyed the tour. It was nice to have a local giving the tour because it really helped give some insight to the history of the area.
You also got to stop in a shop and try a local drink. It was nice that there were suggestions on shops and restaurants. And she also shared additional spots she’d suggest.
Really great tour ! And don’t forget to bring cash. The guides operate on tips and they were as good if not better than most of the paid tours I’ve been on. So I would definitely recommend it.

Me and my boyfriend did the Classic Tour with Vojka, and we enjoyed it very much! We stayed in Ljubliana for one day, and it was a great day for us to see the city in a short period of time. We also got to know some facts about the country and the city that we had no idea about. Overall, it was a great experience, and we recommend it.

An excellent tour to give you a great insight into Lubljana. Well worth taking first before you go out and do your own exploration as it will show you locations you would never find and those not worth the time. Dolman our guide was knowledgeable, considerate and funny. He made the two hours come alive.

Good tour, Domin (not sure for the spelling) was a wealth of information and very gracious with finding shaded areas for each point of instruction. If I had more time in Ljubljana I would have loved to have had done the communist tour. I learned a lot about the history of the city, its relationship to karst, and its special place in with Rome, Austria-Hungary, and Yugoslavia.

We took the Ljubljana Free Walking Tour last Saturday morning & despite visiting many cities this was first walking tour. We found Vojka our guide really great, informative, engaging, professional & delightful. Vojka was very aware of the hot weather & made sure our stops were in the shade. Can't recommend highly enough. Thank you so much for all the great information & an enjoyable couple of hours in this beautiful city.

This was probably the best city tour I have had. And it was FREE! Domain was an amazing guide. Very knowledgeable and super friendly. Our only disappointment was that our afternoon City & Castle tour was cancelled for to low turnout. Some people booked and didn’t turn up.
Thanks you Doman and Ljubljana Free Tour.

I had an amazing experience with the Ljubljana Free Tour! I participated in two of their walking tours— the Classic Tour and the Old Town & Castle Tour. While the classic tour was interesting and informative, the Old Town & Castle Tour was truly exceptional! Our guide Tina was absolutely fantastic—she’s a remarkable storyteller who brought the history of Ljubljana to life. I felt completely transported back to medieval Ljubljana thanks to her engaging narration and deep knowledge. This tour exceeded all my expectations, and I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to experience the magic and history of this beautiful city. Huge thanks to Tina for making it such a memorable adventure!

This is a great way to start a trip in Ljublijana. Gives you a 2 hour tour which is very informative. Our guide Vojka was very knowledgeable and explained Slovenia's history, culture, food and drink in a very easy to follow and understand style. 100% recommend.

We had an amazing experience exploring thanks to our fantastic tour guide, Lucy!
From start to finish, Lucy was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing fascinating history, local insights, and hidden gems that we would have never discovered on our own. Her passion for the city really came through, and she made every stop engaging and enjoyable.
She was also very friendly, approachable, and happy to answer all of our questions, making the tour feel personal rather than rushed. You can tell she truly loves what she does.
If you're visiting Ljubljana, we highly recommend booking a tour!

Our guide Domen was friendly, knowledgeable, and funny. As English speakers, we had no trouble understanding at all.
We visited in the winter, and he was very thoughtful about making sure everyone stayed comfortable throughout the tour.
It was a great mix of history, folklore, and local insight. Tips are encouraged/expected since the tours are free, and it was absolutely well worth it. Highly recommend!

Our tour guide - Tina, made the tour highly engaging! I believe this is a must visit when you are in Ljubljana as it gives you a glimpse into the city’s rich culture and history! What I found helpful was that even after the tour, Tina continued to provide us with recommendations of what you can do in the area!

We did the classic tour with Domen. He took us on an absolutely stunning tour through the center of Ljubljana, telling us just the right amount of history with a humorous touch keeping us engaged and laughing. We enjoyed it so much, definitely recommend this tour to anyone who is in the city to learn more about it including tips from our guide where to eat and what to do. I am so happy and will remember it for a long time!

We spent a very pleasant and informative two hours. Although the town is small, it hides many treasures and has a rich history. Our tour guide, Vojka, with her perfect English, introduced us to the city’s past. We owe the city’s appearance to the Slovenian architect Jože Plečnik, its cultural influence to the Slovenian poet France Prešeren, and this wonderful two-hour experience to Vojka. By the way, she also offers discount coupons, and we even got free tastings during the walk. We are very grateful. Thank you very much!

This tour was incredible! I highly recommend it for anyone visiting Ljubljana.
Our guide Helena was amazing! The tour lasted about 2 hours and 20 minutes and was jam packed with info about the city and Slovenia—history, government, art, architecture, culture, food, interesting/amusing factoids, and even tips on local spots to check out. We also got free samples of a local liquor from a shop along the way.
Great way to spend the afternoon, and I’d recommend doing this tour at the start of your stay in Ljubljana so that you have tips on what to do/where to go during the rest of your time in the city.
