Senior couple traveling and gazing an amazing landscape

A couple decided to treat themselves to a romantic tailor-made journey to Slovenia to celebrate their wedding anniversary.

The call

Anastasia called us on time – we had booked a time slot on the website – and asked us a series of relevant questions about our specific needs and interests. Within half an hour, we built together an exclusive trip customised to our preferences.

We explained to her that we had in mind a long weekend trip during the summer. We planned to celebrate our wedding anniversary so we wanted it to be a romantic, out-of-the-box getaway.

We had never been to Slovenia but both of us saw the postcard view of the famous Bled Lake. So, we dreamt about visiting it. In addition, we wanted to explore Ljubljana and spend some time in the mountains.

As it was our wedding anniversary, we wanted to add some outstanding experiences. Anastasia assured us that she had a couple of ideas in mind.

We agreed that the most convenient way to get around the country would be to rent a car upon arrival.

The reservation

Anatasia emailed us a detailed description of our tailor-made holidays and a quotation the following week. It included all the elements we discussed and agreed upon during our call. She also provided us with useful advice to purchase our flight tickets.

As a result, we approved and signed the quotation electronically and paid a deposit. As soon as we booked our air tickets, we forwarded our flight details to Anastasia so that she could arrange a smooth rental car pick-up. We were looking forward to our romantic holidays!

The preparations

Two weeks before departure, we received a comprehensive travel book setting out the complete itinerary by email. It also included many other things, such as travel advice and recommendations for restaurants and local cuisine.

Thanks to a specific reference number sent by Velstana, it was also available online via a link and on a handy free app – that can even be used in offline mode – available for iOS and Android devices.

First day in Slovenia & Exploring Ljubljana

Upon arrival at Ljubljana airport, we went straight to the car rental desk to pick up the car that was reserved for us. We had a 30-minute drive towards the city centre across the picturesque Slovenian countryside. We checked in to our lovely and well-located hotel. This afternoon we had a romantic boat tour of the Ljubljanica River. We were greeted with a glass of champagne and two little poticas: Read moreHide

Lake Bled

After a last stroll in Ljubljana, we took a car and drove to Bled Lake. On our way, we made a couple of stops to visit beautiful small towns and villages that we found in our detailed road book. Škofja Loka was our favourite! Upon arrival at the lake, we had lunch with a marvellous view and went to pick up the bikes that were pre-booked for us by Velstana. It was so nice to ride a bike around the lake enjoying the postcard views! Read moreHide

Unique experience in the mountains

In the morning we headed to the Krvavec mountain range. We were both very excited as we were about to do a tandem paragliding flight for the first time! Thrilling! Especially with such a beautiful view of the magnificent mountains. After the paragliding flight, we did a little nice hike. It was very easy to follow as thanks to Velstana we had a GPS trace and a detailed description of trails to follow. In the evening we had something very, very special arranged for us: a high-quality four-course dinner in a cable car!! We enjoyed a very fine meal on the mountain tops. Could not be better! We spent that last night of our romantic weekend in the cozy atmosphere of an Alpine-style hotel.
