Relax and unwind after your journey, and spend your free time exploring and wandering the streets of the compact city of Ljubljana. Later in the day, you’ll meet with our Travel Expert, Jonathan, who’ll be your tour guide.
Enjoy a delicious breakfast this morning before exploring more of the charming old towns, culture-rich museums and striking architecture of Ljubljana. As the mid-afternoon approaches, you’ll be transferred to the southern Dinaric Alps (which will take around one hour), ready to check in to your hotel. Then in the evening, savour a traditional Slovenian dinner. Our local guide together with Jonathan will provide an overview of the upcoming activities and share important hide etiquette for bear-watching photography. (B,D)
Spend the afternoon engaged in brown bear photography sessions from the purpose-built hides. Some hides are just a few kilometres from the guesthouse, while others are slightly further away. Each hide offers unique settings, allowing you to capture pictures of different bears and picturesque landscapes, ensuring a variety of photographic opportunities. (B,L,D)
Continue your photography sessions in various hides across the forests of the Notranjska Region. The settings include Dinaric Karst Forest, a spruce forest with moss-covered rocks, overgrown grass with pine trees and junipers, and forest clearings. Each location is carefully selected to provide diverse and stunning backdrops for your bear photography. (B,L,D)
This morning, enjoy some free time before a mid-afternoon transfer to Ljubljana ready for your flight back to the UK. (B,L)
