Did you know…
- The only way to get around the city is on foot or by water. It is illegal to drive a car or ride a bicycle in this district
- Walking around Venice could give you the feeling that there are numerous channels, whereas there are in fact just two: the Grand Canal and the Giudecca Canal. The other little waterways that course through the restricted lanes are considered rivers.
Today we will leave Italy behind and continue on our cheap group trip across Europe, crossing not 1 but 2 different borders. From Italy we will pass through Slovenia, a country that used to belong to Yugoslavia. We will travel through little villages full of tradition and fascinating architecture. On this route, as we are crossing the mountains between Trieste and Ljubljana, you will be able to admire the incredible views from the windows of the bus. What´s more, you will be able to find the incredible caves of Postjana here, caves that have been formed over millions of years thanks to the Karstic phenomenon, stalagmites and stalactites which have been slowly growing throughout history.
Curiously, Ljubljana is the city with the largest density of students… and by spending the night here, you will enjoy its young ambience.
*Optional Activity:
- Caves of Postojna: Trip to the caves in an old mine train.
Ljubjana is a rich and prosperous city, that was able to rise from the ashes of the second world war and balcanic conflicts and now can be considered an elegant European capital, with a very unique style that combines the influences of its geographical neighbours. From Mediterranean architecture, through to gothic, Germanic or balcanic style…
On this cheap group trip you can lose yourself in the old town, on the Prezeren square, walk across the same bridge three times and visit Saint Nicolas´ cathedral. If you have energy, you can also climb up to the castle which is an a hill that dominates the city.
Did you know…
- People greet each other by shaking hands even among friends.
- In Slovenia, all plates of food in restaurants are thought to be shared.
- The capital of Slovenia was created thanks to a legend related to a dragon that was terrorising the city, and the founder of the town battled against the dragon and freed all of its citizens.

After stopping in Ljubljana, we will travel through Slovenia and the Alps on our way to another country Austria and its stunning capital: Vienna.
Today we will have breakfast in Slovenia and dinner in Austria!
Guten morgen!
Today, on our European summer adventure and our cheap group trip, we will have to wake up early to take an advantage of the day, because Vienna has a lot to offer.
You will have a chance to choose whether to join the optional bus tour around Vienna or to go walking around the centre.
On the bus tour, you will visit all the main tourist spots in Vienna, from Prater and its oldest ferris wheel in Europe, across the Danube to Ringstrasse, admiring some beautiful monuments from the XIX century.
You will also see a Russian soldier or two and the incredible Belvedere palace (which, today, houses the Klimt museum)… and you will have the opportunity to feel like Princess Sissi in the gardens of the Schonbrunn palace.
*Optional Activity:
- Bus Tour of Berlin: Ringstrasse and Schonbrunn (with local professional guide)
And what about lunch? Well, you should try Schnitzel and Sachertorte… the most famous chocolate cake in the world (Austrians say so :)).
Did you know…
- Vienna was the cultural capital of Europe in the XIX. century. Habsburgs financed all kind of artists, that’s why Vienna is one of the places you must visit before you die
- Vienna was lucky to leave the russian hegemony in the ‘55 and turn into a neutral country. Therefore, Austria is nowadays a much more developed and rich country than it’s neighbours.
- Watch the traffic lights of the city and you will find out something very curious ?
