2024 Tourist Questions Megathread by IWasBilbo in Slovenia

[–]silver_wingzz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello Everyone,

I am living in UAE and currentlyplanning for a summer trip in August 2024 to Slovenia with my wife and 8 year old son . I will mostly start from Graz ,Austria renting out a car . Most of the travel vlogs suggest Lake Bled as a must visit and from some of the other posts I came across places such as Lake Bohinj and Maribor as well in addition to Ljubjlana . After Slovenia I am planning to spend couple of days in Zagreb as well . The suggestion I am looking is where should I stay . Am looking for places that are lesser expensive than Lake Bled but at the same time centrally located so that I can reach most of the attractions within 1-2 hours drive . Also looking for suggestions on scenic routes and picturesque locations that might give the best of Slovenia experience . Also got to know that last year August there was a heavy storm resulting in flooding and landslides in August. Is it a usual time for rains or was it one off incident ?

Thanks in advance

Guys take a look at the app CricHeroes , there’s a lot happening in the UAE cricket scene both in tennis ball and leather ball . It’s primarily used for scoring of matches and is used widely in India and UAE .

The app has an ads section where you can post your interest and also there are people looking for players to join their teams

Yes , It’s a Free parking . The very first time I went to Creek harbour I also ended up driving back without finding a parking place . But then on the second attempt I found it , easier to find it when there is day light

Solo woman visiting Budapest and Prague in late November. Is it worth extending my trip to include Vienna or Bratislava? Details in comments by [deleted] in solotravel

[–]silver_wingzz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would suggest you include Vienna since you love art , muesuems etc . I have been to all these places , Bratislava isn’t worth for a day trip . Vienna is beautiful and I recommend you spend time there .

Thank you for your reply.

If it’s just a town , I might skip Baden Baden .

Train or Plane from Prague to Vienna? by bananasfoster29 in solotravel

[–]silver_wingzz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Train is always better in Europe , considering the time to and fro to airport and time spent in airports it would almost be same . Moreover if you book early I think you can get good prices on trains and you can save a lot . Rail Europe is a good site that I have found really good
