I have visited Slovenia three times on the job. I love the country and the people. Now retired, I hope to return to Ljubljana with my wife to show her this little known treasure.
I adore Slovenia because it is very clean country what it is not typical for other Balkan countries. In the same time the people have preserved the typical Slavic cordiality and are really very friendly. Warm greetings and kisses from Bulgaria!
Been to more than 20 countries in Europe, Slovenia is just my type of vacation country, the peaceful environment, the breath taking landscape, the nice people... Will come back for my honeymoon :) Much love from Cambodia
I´m also from Croatia...Personally, i think Croatia is little bit nicer, cause of it´s diversity, but Slovenia is really beautiful, on of the most beautiful in Europe. Volim Hrvatsku i Sloveniju.
In my opinion Croatia, Montenegro and Slovenia are all equally beautiful countries. Bosnia, Macedonia and Serbia are not that special on the other hand.
Absolutely stunning. Such a beautiful country with pretty sights and clean so clean and unspoilt. The people look friendly and wow I'm speechless. I hope to see that hidden treasure one day!!! Greetings Slovenia from New Zealand.
I always go thru Slovenia when going to Italy, never put Slovenia as a final destination while traveling and this spring I'm changing that! Whenever I'm on twisty roads of Slovenia I get overwhelmed by nature and beautiful scenery, people are welcoming and always friendly, Slovenia proves that you don't need size to be GREAT! Pozdrav za Slovence iz Srbije, prelepu državu imate! 💙
persie PRINCE Well in December is winter in Slovenia, but manny years now we are witing to have a nice white christmas, but somehow the weather always turn on us and start snowing after new year, afcourse it starts usualy snowing arround October or November but more havy snow is usualy after new year
I'm American, but I feel extremely proud of having Slovene ancestry from my mother's side. Her grandparents were from somewhere in Eastern Slovenia and came here in South Dakota in the early 1900s. I went to Slovenia twice actually, the first time was back in 2009, and the second time in 2014 but I'm planning to go there again very soon, most surely this year. Very nice country, I appreciate its cleanness and there are plenty of nice mountains and green spots and forests to enjoy some nature and also very hospitable people!
Jack Brower my parents were born in Slovenia and migrated to Australia in 1960. I’ve been there and like you, so proud of my Slovenian/Italian heritage 😊🇦🇺🇸🇮
I watch this series again and again ......world is beautiful 😍 and beauty is not restricted to man made boundaries.....😃😇👍big fan Sir ...is anyone watching in 2021??
No I was telling Florxx that in Texas its still 25C. Yes Tilen I know that you guys have a real winter . Here where I live it doesn't even snow, I have not seen snow for 18 years
My family emigrated from Friuli to Argentina. You neighbours have a lovely country! Take care of keeping the flame and passing the torch to the next generation! God bless you.
Your country is very beautiful, indeed. Today my daughter and I were looking into European Countries to Start an Academy, and I stumbled upon Slovenia. I believe this is what falling in love at first sight feels like 😊
My two visits to Slovenia were in April 2005 and February 2007, and I fell in love with the nation! I am eager to return soon. Rick did not cover Lake Bohinj in this programme. While Lake Bled is cute and romantic, Lake Bohinj is rugged and majestic and at the base of the Julian Alps. Worth visiting! In addition, Rick did not cover the eastern portion of Slovenia. I have visited Ptuj (pronounced like someone spitting tobacco: "Ptooey!") during their pre-Lent celebration Kurentevanje. Lots of fun watching wholly Kurents stroll from through town. Modest, walkable Ptuj has a fantastic castle containing five museums. Slovenian cuisine in the east has influence from its neighbor Hungary. You can catch a glimpse of Kurentevanje on "Rick Steves' European Easter".
I am Romanian and I live in Slovenia. I have visited a lot of beautiful locations there. I even climbed some mountains and on the mountains i saw Italy and Austria.
sanela huska Thank's for your comment! I hoped for Slovenia don't have problem with we, for Hungary find the favorite neighbor after Croatia, in our nationality survey find we 76% sympathetic them! :)
Zsolt Horváth of course:) why should we have anything against hungary:) we r neighbours:)but unfortunately on net there are alot of stupid ppl:) what can we do:) just ignore them:)
sanela huska Real life nothing this like appear. I met a Slovak girl, who live in Budapest. Since 3 years she NOTHING had conflict 'cause she's originallity! I traveled in Slovakia nobody hurted me! :) All the best! :)
I am an Iraqi/Armenian visited Slovenia last summer , what a surprise nice , a charming & clean every where , didn't expect an ex communist country will be such a lovely place , Piran , Bled , Ljubljana , the country side , a really boutique country , greetings and love from Armenia . thank you very much Mr. Benjamin Izmajlov for your good hospitality , respects to your beautiful family miss every moment .
I'm glad you enjoyed our country! what part of Japan are you from? I'm asking because Japan happens to be the number one country I want to visit in the world.
I’m Japanese. I get interested in this country because of Luka Doncic who is NBA star from Slovenia. I was surprised at beautiful city and landscape in this video. I’d like to visit this country after pandemic.
Oh my God! This is amazing! Such a beautiful country and so rare to find a video on Slovenia! Thank you so much for the amazing videos, Rick Steves! :)
Slovenia is the most under-rated country I have been to in Europe. The food (think Burek), the nature and, the architecture (in Ljubljana) were so amazing! My favorite part was probably the people who were so friendly and curious, and not tired of tourists like so many other touristy small places. I am planning on doing a slower Euro-trip this summer and spend a month each at 3 of my favorite cities in Europe, and I want to spend a month in Ljubljana 😊😊
"Absouletly fantastic tripe we enjoyed here with you Mr. Steve. Slovenia is truly a heaven on Earth. I l'v those superb, Documentryies. Thanks God Bless you, All the Best💕
Now that I've seen the clips I think I'm going there in July. I would love to see the caves, visit the museums, and socialize the people in that country.
What a beautiful country, indeed... I have visited Slovenia (Ptuj and Maribor) five years ago... Wonderful trip... So clean and calm; nice people, language, food, nature, restaurants, sights; everything wonderful... Greetings from Brazil, Rio de Janeiro!

Greetings from Wisconsin! Good job on this video, Rick! One-half of my blood is Slovenian. Both of my grandparents on my mother's side were from Slovenia. My Grandfather was a Slovenian immigrant to the USA who worked as an iron ore miner in Northern Minnesota. My Grandmother was also a Slovenian immigrant who met him there in the little town of Gilbert,, Minnesota. They met there in Gilbert, married and had six children, one of whom was my beloved Mother. I solidly remember both my Slovenian Grandparents oh so well! And I loved the potice desert bread that my Grandmother made with a fondness that I have never been able to duplicate. The family later moved to Milwaukee were I was born in 1948. I hope to trace my roots in Slovenia some day. What a jewel of a country Slovenia is! This video brought me to tears thinking of what my ancestry left behind. Given what America has become today, I can only wonder, WHY?
Hi very good work. I thing you even didn't know what you have done. Some people can't afford to visit the most beautiful places in the world. This short movies helps them so much to see the world. You are very lucky.
Slovenia is my dream country. I can only imagine roaming around such beaaauuutiful place. I pray that one day I will be able to fulfill my dreams. SML from Philippines. 💞

Namaste Rick I am from india. Thank for showing us Europe. We me or may not visit different countries of Eupore, but diffently enjoy it by your beautiful narration. Once again thank you From your indian fan....
There is a very special event in Ljubljana every December when the Gymnasium Kranz Symphony Orchestra, which is a youth orchestra of High School students and musical friends, presents a Christmas concert in the Gallas Hall. This orchestra is amazing, better than any equivalent youth orchestra anywhere in the world. Their musicianship is top notch. This proves that music education in Slovenia is as good as any larger countries can offer. These young people are great ambassadors for Slovenian youth. Slovenia is highly cultured and a beacon to the world.
I went Slovenia for 7 days/7 nights (August 2022) and am watching this video after the fact. We happened to do all of the same highlights in this video + a few more, and had an awesome time! I would recommend this itinerary and a trip to Slovenia if you aren't afraid to be active for light hiking for vistas, swimming holes, and waterfall trails. I've been to Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia & Herzegovina, and Montenegro, and the Slovene people and their food have been my favorites of the four Balkan nations.
This is my country. It's really nice to watch this. I never knew about the 1895 earthquake and rebuilding of Ljubljana. And it's really funny how many views this has.
Rick, I love your shows! Thank you for taking the time to visit my home - Slovenia. Too many people miss it but thanks to you many people get to see its beauties. There is one thing I would correct in this video... as others stated, Yugoslavia was not behind the "iron curtain". It was rather a non-aligned country. Yes, we did have socialism and a communist government but this does not automatically place a country behind the iron curtain. Unlike citizens of countries behind the iron curtain, Yugoslavs had passports and were able to travel abroad [as well as practice religion]. I was taught English in school, not Russian. We were, at least in Slovenia, pro West oriented. In any case, great show. Thank you! :-)
+Lupus Fabula Ne vem kako je pri Vas, ampak tukaj se večina bori za ponovno vzpostavitev socializma/neznam kako je kod Vas ali ovdje mase ljudi radi sve, da bi opet imali socializam. Lp, Tadej....prijateljski susjed :)
+Tedix Medix I kod nas nažalost. Nikako da krenemo pravim putem, putem Njemačke, Danske, Engleske... mi smo zaglavili u mentalnom socijalizmu. Inače lijepo vam raste GDP u posljednje vrijeme, samo naprijed, pozdrav iz Rijeke.
***** Nekoliko dana nazad rekao sam - lako je bilo istjerat slovence iz socialzma, al istjerat socializam iz nas - nemoguče. Žao mi je, da je tako i kod vas. ( znam - postić samostalnost bila je za vas mnogo tragičnija! ) Ljudi, naši i vaši, u prosjeku, imaju dobro srce ali njihovo/naše ( njihovo/naše kao nacija ) razmišljanje je totalno fokusirano u prošlost. Ta prošlost je u svim pogledima idealizirana, Nema veze s stvarnostjo. BDP - da, dobro ide. Ali to povečanje BDP je stvar malih privatnih firmi. I sve te firme su vezane (primarno) na njemčku. Izvoz. Znači - ovise od njemačke. Kriza u Kini, če rezultirat u EU ( i njemačkoj ) i tako i kod nas. Nije EU kriva, da se razumijemo. Sledeča financijska kriza znači bankrot za Sloveniju. Nadam se, da Hrvatska nije toliko ugrožena. Nadam se, da je vaša ekonomija manje zavisna od samo jedne zemlje. Pozdrav iz Mariborja!
Rick Steves. Thanks for making this video. I really enjoyed it, it brought back good memories of a great holiday in Slovenia in 2007, when I hiked in the Julian Alps. It was interesting to see other parts of this beautiful country, which I haven't yet been to.
I never been into any of European countries but I absolutely like all "The Best of Europe", especially when I started as one of the subscribers of Rick Steve's TH-cam channel; it seems like I'm already in Europe. I almost finish traveling the European countries... Thanks to Rick Steve 😊👍👏. Scotland, Slovenia, Croatia, Italy and among others are some of my favourite countries to visit at least once in a life time. ❤️ from the Philippines 🇵🇭. 👍👏😘

@@rajveersinghdhillon1477 Yes I have retired. I still hope to visit Slovenia again as soon as it is safe.
I adore Slovenia because it is very clean country what it is not typical for other Balkan countries. In the same time the people have preserved the typical Slavic cordiality and are really very friendly. Warm greetings and kisses from Bulgaria!
I’m not sure if you can consider Slovenia a Balkan country
Perigali1 slovenia is not a balkanic country
You know maybe i am wrong. But slovenians seems to me most none slavic slavs in the world. I might be wrong this is just my subjective opinion.

Just had the most epic road trip ever from Slovenia to Croatia with a roof tent rental! Trust me, you gotta try this!
What company did you rent with,
There is a very special event in Ljubljana every December when the Gymnasium Kranz Symphony Orchestra, which is a youth orchestra of High School students and musical friends, presents a Christmas concert in the Gallas Hall. This orchestra is amazing, better than any equivalent youth orchestra anywhere in the world. Their musicianship is top notch. This proves that music education in Slovenia is as good as any larger countries can offer. These young people are great ambassadors for Slovenian youth. Slovenia is highly cultured and a beacon to the world.
I went Slovenia for 7 days/7 nights (August 2022) and am watching this video after the fact. We happened to do all of the same highlights in this video + a few more, and had an awesome time! I would recommend this itinerary and a trip to Slovenia if you aren't afraid to be active for light hiking for vistas, swimming holes, and waterfall trails.
I've been to Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia & Herzegovina, and Montenegro, and the Slovene people and their food have been my favorites of the four Balkan nations.
This is my country. It's really nice to watch this. I never knew about the 1895 earthquake and rebuilding of Ljubljana. And it's really funny how many views this has.
Rick, I love your shows! Thank you for taking the time to visit my home - Slovenia. Too many people miss it but thanks to you many people get to see its beauties. There is one thing I would correct in this video... as others stated, Yugoslavia was not behind the "iron curtain". It was rather a non-aligned country. Yes, we did have socialism and a communist government but this does not automatically place a country behind the iron curtain. Unlike citizens of countries behind the iron curtain, Yugoslavs had passports and were able to travel abroad [as well as practice religion]. I was taught English in school, not Russian. We were, at least in Slovenia, pro West oriented. In any case, great show. Thank you! :-)
Beautiful!! Wish I can live in Slovenia!
Lijepa Slovenija. Naši susjedi.
P.s. Bravo za oca na 15:30 upravo tako kako je rekao.

Daleč od resnice. ZELO daleč od resnice.
+tofajvito v.t. povedal je resnico. Če ti tega ne doživljaš, je to posledica tvoje nesposobnosti.
+Lupus Fabula Ne vem kako je pri Vas, ampak tukaj se večina bori za ponovno vzpostavitev socializma/neznam kako je kod Vas ali ovdje mase ljudi radi sve, da bi opet imali socializam.
Lp, Tadej....prijateljski susjed :)
+Tedix Medix I kod nas nažalost. Nikako da krenemo pravim putem, putem Njemačke, Danske, Engleske... mi smo zaglavili u mentalnom socijalizmu. Inače lijepo vam raste GDP u posljednje vrijeme, samo naprijed, pozdrav iz Rijeke.
***** Nekoliko dana nazad rekao sam - lako je bilo istjerat slovence iz socialzma, al istjerat socializam iz nas - nemoguče.
Žao mi je, da je tako i kod vas. ( znam - postić samostalnost bila je za vas mnogo tragičnija! )
Ljudi, naši i vaši, u prosjeku, imaju dobro srce ali njihovo/naše ( njihovo/naše kao nacija ) razmišljanje je totalno fokusirano u prošlost. Ta prošlost je u svim pogledima idealizirana, Nema veze s stvarnostjo.
BDP - da, dobro ide. Ali to povečanje BDP je stvar malih privatnih firmi. I sve te firme su vezane (primarno) na njemčku. Izvoz. Znači - ovise od njemačke. Kriza u Kini, če rezultirat u EU ( i njemačkoj ) i tako i kod nas. Nije EU kriva, da se razumijemo. Sledeča financijska kriza znači bankrot za Sloveniju. Nadam se, da Hrvatska nije toliko ugrožena. Nadam se, da je vaša ekonomija manje zavisna od samo jedne zemlje.
Pozdrav iz Mariborja!
Just booked my trip to Slovenia for this coming October. Hope it won't be raining. lots of love from Lebanon :)
I hope you enjoy your stay in our little country ;)
Thank you. I sure will :)
+mojcica girl oh please! don't get me started! i'm not gonna be dragged into this type of conversations
Good answer, Tony! Much more intelligent than "mojcica girl`s". Ignore her. And sure - you`re welcome in Slovenia!
Been many times in Slovenia.. And i like it 😉😉😉 from italy
Rick Steves. Thanks for making this video. I really enjoyed it, it brought back good memories of a great holiday in Slovenia in 2007, when I hiked in the Julian Alps. It was interesting to see other parts of this beautiful country, which I haven't yet been to.
I never been into any of European countries but I absolutely like all "The Best of Europe", especially when I started as one of the subscribers of Rick Steve's TH-cam channel; it seems like I'm already in Europe.
I almost finish traveling the European countries... Thanks to Rick Steve 😊👍👏.
Scotland, Slovenia, Croatia, Italy and among others are some of my favourite countries to visit at least once in a life time. ❤️ from the Philippines 🇵🇭. 👍👏😘
I would go to Ljubljana one day. Looks amazing! /fr Bosnia
Breathtaking! Just added to my bucket list:) Thanks Rick
I'd like to visit Slovenia one day!! Thanks for this video!
