A Taste of Slovenia’s Soul

There’s no better way to understand a country than through its wine — and Slovenia, though small, hides one of Europe’s oldest and most diverse wine traditions.
Nestled between the Alps, the Adriatic, and the Pannonian Plain, the country produces everything from crisp whites to full-bodied reds — and you can experience it all right here in Ljubljana.

With a GetYourGuide wine tasting tour, you can uncover Slovenia’s unique wine culture, meet passionate local sommeliers, and sip wines that rarely make it beyond the country’s borders.

🍇 Why Ljubljana Is Perfect for Wine Lovers

Although Ljubljana isn’t a wine-producing city, it’s the heart of Slovenian gastronomy.
Most tours start in the city’s old town, where charming cellars and wine bars bring together the best bottles from all three Slovenian wine regions:

Primorska (coastal wines like Refošk and Malvazija)
Podravje (noble whites such as Šipon and Riesling)
Posavje (sparkling and blended wines like Cviček)

You’ll find that every tasting is more than just a sip — it’s a story.

“Every wine has its own fingerprint of the land it comes from,” as one local winemaker likes to say.

🍷 What to Expect on a GetYourGuide Wine Tasting Tour

A typical wine-tasting experience in Ljubljana lasts about 2–3 hours and includes:
✅ Tasting 6–7 local wines from different regions
✅ Expert guidance from a certified sommelier
✅ Traditional Slovenian snacks (cheese, olives, prosciutto)
✅ Small-group setting (ideal for couples or friends)
✅ Optional souvenir bottle to take home

You’ll explore hidden wine bars tucked beneath medieval stone arches or visit a boutique cellar that only locals know.

🥂 Extend Your Wine Journey Beyond Ljubljana

If you fall in love with Slovenian wine (and you probably will), consider joining a day trip to the Vipava Valley or Goriška Brda — both available through GetYourGuide as well.
