    Slovenia family holidays for adventurers, foodies and history buffs

    Distinctive culture, pristine nature and endless activities

    Slovenia will dazzle travellers of all ages. Its picturesque forests, valleys and mountains create spectacular vistas around every turn, while its historic towns abound with cultural experiences and culinary magic. There are Alpine slopes to scale and Mediterranean waters to swim in; museums to wander through and waterfalls to marvel at; trails to traverse and traditional cakes to try.

    Food-loving families will find no shortage of immersive activities and delectable treats. You can take a food tour of Ljubljana, learn how to make Slovenian flatbread and Tolminc cheese by hand, forage for local ingredients and hunt for Istrian truffles, visit a bee farm in Carniola or meet artisanal chocolate makers in Radovljica.

    Slovenia is also bursting with natural beauty and outdoor adventures. Triglav National Park boasts the Julian Alps and the country’s highest mountain. In the Soča Valley, you can complete part of the Alpe Adria Trail, paddle the emerald waters of the Soča River or fly through the treetops on a zip line.

    Our travel designers have visited this country’s legendary attractions and explored its most remote corners. Contact us to start crafting a journey that your family will never forget, complete with the best local guides, epic views, world-class restaurants and phenomenal family hotels in Slovenia.

    Slovene Riviera

    Kempinski Palace Portoroz
    It’s all in the name. Indulge in the opulence and grandeur of the high-end Hotel Kempinski Palace, its brilliant and distinct façade looking out onto the Adriatic coastline of Slovenia. Opened as the height of luxury in 1910, it has recently been completely renovated to bring this glamour into the new century. 181 rooms are indicative of the elegance inherent within the hotel’s walls, each carrying with it a character of old-world charm with the most modern facilities and amenities. Take in the rich views from its various terraces and balconies, the perfect place to settle down for an early morning cappuccino before heading to the breakfast buffet within the gilded walls of the Crystal Hall. Indeed, the gastronomic options are of the highest quality. The cuisine varies from menu to menu, with the Mediterranean flavours of Restaurant Sophia, so named because of its hosting of famous beauty Sophia Loren, to the fusion of Restaurant Fleur de Sel. Savour the sweet life by sampling French confectionaries and Austrian coffee-house blends of the Forma Viva and Ladies’ Saloon while there are three bars in which you can kick back with a cocktail or spirit of your choice. No trip to this most lovely location would be complete without a visit to the Kempinski Rose Spa, a veritable paradise of beauty treatments, massages, baths and saunas. The fitness centre means you will be able to stay in shape, using the state-of-the-art equipment as well as the magnificent seawater swimming pool.
