About This Tour

This wine tasting in Ljubljana takes place in a 300-year-old wine bar at Ljubljana Castle, where a local wine expert guides you through seven Slovenian wines. It suits anyone curious about wine, from beginners to people who already know what they like. And it’s a relaxed way to meet other travelers.

What Happens During the Tasting

  • Seven wines from different regions: you taste wines from several Slovenian wine regions and learn where each one comes from and what makes it different.
  • Stories and history: the host shares the background of each wine and the basic wine facts worth knowing.
  • Games and tasting challenges: instead of just sipping, you test your senses and your knowledge in small challenges with the group.
  • Food on the side: the wines come with bread, olives, cheese, walnuts and Slovenian oil.

You also get a certificate at the end. Extra wine samples and a chocolate pairing are available as add-ons.
