Day 3: Caves & local food tasting
Another day, another must-see! We are off to Postojna Cave, the queen of caves, where a small electric train will take you underground for a unique experience. The dripstones and the halls of this cave are so spectacular that any description fails to do them justice. A short drive away from Postojna, we will pass by Predjama Castle as well, a unique structure with mysterious stories and a wonderful photo-stop. We will feast on a traditional lunch in Vipava, a valley famous for its wine making traditions and stop at a local winemaker’s to taste some of those fine wines.
IMPORTANT:
The temperature in the cave is 10C, so make sure you are dressed properly.
