From Detroit City DTT (All Airports) (MI), US for 10 nights
Ljubljana, long overlooked by American travelers in favor of adjacent European capitals like Vienna and Budapest, is now a city on the rise. Visitors only need a few moments to walk the pedestrian-only streets in the city center to feel the old-world historic charm, coupled with the youthful energy exuding from the local university population. Beautiful and vibrant, travelers will quickly learn that Ljubljana has a lot to offer to all who visit. You can sip a cup of coffee and enjoy live music in the Metelkova mesto commune, sail lazily along the winding Ljubljanica River, browse art galleries and take in a ballet, all within walking distance from each other.
Visit and explore the Ljubljana Castle, Ljubljanica River, Metelkova mesto, Cathedral of St. Nicholas, Triple Bridge, Butchers` Bridge, Cobblers` Bridge, Congress Square, Preseren Square, Slovenska cesta, Mount Saint Mary, Tivoli Park, and so much more.
2 nights in Savinja River Valley
The towns of the Savinja River Valley are popular vacation destinations for travelers to Slovenia. The region is sure to make a memorable impression, noteworthy for a compact region such as this, where the river flows for just 63 miles from Rinka Falls, one of the highest waterfalls in Slovenia, to the Sava River south of the region`s two major towns, Celje and Laško. Laško is known as a spa town and the hometown of the popular Laško Brewery, which is Slovenia`s largest. Celje, the largest city in the region, is one of Slovenia`s most industrialized towns and is home to a number of historic buildings, such as a 13th-century Franciscan abbey and a 15th-century water tower which once was part of the town`s defensive infrastructure.
Visit and discover the Savinja Alps, Celje, Laško, Rinka Falls, Zidani Most, Logar Valley, and so much more.
2 nights in Maribor
Maribor, Slovenia`s second-largest city, feels cozy and provincial, but looks can be deceiving. Its young, cosmopolitan university population keeps the town lively year-round, and the city`s emphasis on promoting the arts resulted in Maribor being named the European Capital of Culture in 2012. Travelers will enjoy strolling the pedestrian-only streets of the historic Old Town, located on the picturesque Drava River. The hills and valleys around the city are known the world over for challenging hiking trails as well as expansive vineyards.
Visit and explore the Main Square, Pohorje Ski Resort, Maribor Castle, Maribor Cathedral, Maribor Water Tower, Maribor Synagogue, Plague Column, Judgement Tower, Betnava Mansion, Maribor Regional Museum, Maribor Island, and so much more.
For such a small nation, <b>Slovenia</b>, at the crossroads of Central and Eastern Europe, offers so many distinct vacation opportunities. People who want a city getaway will fall in love with Ljubljana, the capital and largest city. Winter sports enthusiasts will be right at home on the ski slopes near Lake Bled and nearby Lake Bohinj. A countryside getaway wouldn't be complete without a tour of Styria and the culturally significant Lasko Valley. Finally, a summer getaway is easily within reach if you sun yourself on the beaches of the Slovenian Riviera in towns such as Koper, Piran, and Portoroz.
