The holiday begins with the flight into Venice or Ljubljana, where you’ll meet your tour manager and board the coach for the scenic transfer on to beautiful Lake Bled and your hotel. Dependent upon your arrival time, enjoy a first evening in this super resort town, perhaps taking a stroll along the lakeshore. Set at the foot of the Julian Alps, Lake Bled, surrounded by forested slopes and with its idyllic offshore island crowned by an exquisite Baroque church, is a treasure waiting to be discovered and explored. Enjoy a first dinner at the hotel, in its splendid setting.
An included guided tour this morning introduces Slovenia’s most celebrated - and one of Europe’s most idyllic - destinations. Ringed by forested hills and looking out across the usually still waters to an off-shore island crowned by its Gothic church, Bled is a wonderfully appointed resort town surrounded by the delights of nature, and offering a wealth of attractions for the visitors it draws from all over the world. Take in the view from the lakeshore, before an included boat ride across to the charming island with its Baroque church. Ring the wishing bell for good luck and enjoy views back across the lake from the bell tower.
This hotel stands in an elevated position in the centre of Bled, with wonderful views over the lake and to the Alps beyond.
