You'll get to sample some of the exquisite wines produced from its descendants. Cheers to that!
Maribor Castle: Where History Comes Alive
Next up, we'll whisk you away to Maribor Castle. Now, don't go expecting dragons and knights in shining armor (though that would be pretty cool). Instead, you'll find yourself immersed in the rich history of the region. Our passionate guides will paint vivid pictures of the past as you explore the castle's nooks and crannies. Who knows? You might even stumble upon a secret passage or two!
Lent: The Heart and Soul of Maribor
No visit to Maribor is complete without a stroll through Lent, the oldest part of the city. Picture this: cobblestone streets, colorful houses, and the gentle flow of the Drava River. It's like stepping into a fairytale! Our guides will show you the best spots for that perfect Instagram shot (because let's face it, pics or it didn't happen, right?). And if you're lucky enough to visit during the Lent Festival, prepare for a sensory overload of music, art, and culture!
Pohorje: Nature's Playground
Calling all nature lovers and thrill-seekers! Our Pohorje tour is not for the faint of heart. We'll take you up the cable car for breathtaking views of the city and surrounding countryside. But that's just the beginning! Depending on the season, you can:
- Hike through lush forests
- Shred the slopes on skis or snowboards
- Mountain bike down exhilarating trails
- Or simply relax in the thermal spas (hey, no judgment here!)
Maribor Cathedral: A Spiritual Journey

Our knowledgeable guides will share fascinating stories about the cathedral's past, including its narrow escape from demolition during World War II. It's a testament to the resilience of Maribor and its people.
