Overview: a car trip from Zagreb to Ljubljana

Slovenia is a paradise where natural wonders work in harmony with eco-friendly cities. Croatia is a magnet for sun worshippers, split between its bustling towns in the north and its Mediterranean shores down south. The 86-mile (138-km) journey from Zagreb to Ljubljana won't just transport you between the political headquarters but also the cultural capitals of these two fascinating nations.

Once you zig-zag out of Zagreb's busy avenues, a sea of green remains a constant in your car window. Tree-lined roads, rolling hills, sprawling fields, dense woodlands, and lush vegetation make up this smooth road, gliding along the landscape. Charming villages nestled amongst the rugged terrain offer you the chance to step back in time and refuel with a traditional hearty meal before continuing your drive through the rural environment and into the urban streets of Ljubljana.

Unsurprisingly, this scenic venture is a comfortable tour that can live long in your memories. But it'll only happen if you find the best mode of transportation to suit your needs and preferences. So, buckle up and get ready to uncover how you can travel from Zagreb to Ljubljana and all the sites in between.

About Ljubljana

After your stunning Zagreb to Ljubljana transfer, you'll land in Slovenia's capital. It sits in the heart of the country along the Ljubljanica River, where around 290,000 residents live. Despite being centrally located, the nation's small size means it's only 26 miles (42 km) from the Austrian and 52 miles (83.7 km) from the Italian borders.

Early Ljubljana

The Celtic tribes were the first known settlers in the Ljubljana region. However, the Romans first built a town here named Emona in the 1st century AD. The area flourished due to its position en route to Pannonia, a Roman stronghold. After its collapse in 476 AD, the region witnessed several invasions, and the Hun tribe destroyed the city in the 5th century.

The town was mentioned again in the 12th century, and Ljubljana was granted city rights in 1220. The Renaissance brought mixed fortunes as the then-ruling Habsburg Empire constructed many significant and elegant buildings. Unfortunately, its beauty was short-lived as an earthquake flattened the city in the 1500s, yet this led to the development of baroque-style houses you can still admire today.

Recent and modern Ljubljana

The 20th century was a stormy period in Ljubljana's history. First, it fell into the hands of Yugoslavia after World War I. During World War II, Italy and Germany occupied the region. It took until the collapse of communism in 1991 for Slovenia to break free and for Ljubljana to become its political capital.

Today, Ljubljana is seemingly trapped in a fairytale, with cobbled lanes twisting through Disney-like passages and a carefree vibe flowing as freely as the emerald waters gushing through the city's heart. You'll rub your eyes in amazement as four almost-real-looking dragon statues stand proudly in this mystic city. Outdoor cafes serving trendy coffees and regular street food markets serving locally sourced products make this pristine city anything but dull!

Zagreb to Ljubljana: travel tips

If you've traveled from Zagreb to Ljubljana in the past, you'll know it's not always the most straightforward journey, especially when traveling in the hot season. If not, read our insider tips to avoid any headaches that might occur en route!

Beat the heat

The average temperature on the road from Zagreb to Ljubljana from May until September is 72° Fahrenheit (22°C). It's also surprisingly humid, meaning traveling without air conditioning and essentials can be overwhelming.

If traveling by public transport, ensure your carriage has air conditioning, as some older models only have small windows. Alternatively, you can opt for Daytrip with a private vehicle and modern conveniences. No matter which mode you choose, pack a light backpack with essentials such as water, sunscreen, and sunglasses.

Venture off the tourist map

When you look at a tourist map of Europe, with all the “major” points of interest, Slovenia appears to be an uncharted area. However, several charming towns and villages sit on the road from Zagreb to Ljubljana.

Skofja Loka is one of Slovenia's oldest settlements. It dates back to the 10th century, and today, the enchanting, colorful old town still seems trapped in the past. If you want more hustle and bustle, Kranj is the nation's fourth-largest urban space, surrounded by snow-capped mountains even in the warm months!

Get into a sustainable mindset

Scientists consistently rank Slovenia among Europe's top 10 most sustainable countries. You may be surprised by how seriously they respect the land.

Cycling is one of the primary modes of transportation here. You can even hire a bike for only $1! Most foods and products are locally sourced or handmade, and you'll always have three trash cans, general waste, recycling, and compost, on every street corner. Please pay attention to their ways of life and travel more sustainably!

How to get from Zagreb to Ljubljana

Getting from Zagreb to Ljubljana doesn't require much stress and planning. But depending on your needs and budget, you'll still want the best travel method for you.

Things to do when you get to Ljubljana

The Slovenian capital's old town is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and welcomes four times as many visitors as its population. With this insight, you can expect a packed travel timetable after your Zagreb to Ljubljana transfer!

Climb Ljubljana Castle

The best way to start an adventure in a new city is to view it from above. Ljubljana Castle dates back to the 10th century but towers almost 390 feet (119 m) above the old town today. A walk up the leafy walkways with fragrant woody aromas transports your mind miles from the bustling streets. If you're feeling in the vacation mood, you can catch the funicular to the summit.

Once here, you have stunning views of the castle and the cityscape, especially during sunset. Of course, you can tour the fort and explore its historical walls, but if you want a unique experience, check out the picnic among the castle's grapevines!

Wander Tivoli Park

Tivoli Park is Ljubljana's most substantial and gorgeous green space, perfect for relaxation and recreation. French engineer Jean Blanchard designed the setting in the 19th century, featuring wide promenades, landscaped gardens, and numerous statues.

Tivoli Mansion sits in its center, housing the International Centre of Graphic Arts. The park is a favorite spot for locals and tourists, offering plenty of walking trails, freshly cut grass for picnics, and a playground, ideal when traveling as a family.

Get lost in the Old Town

Ljubljana's cityscape was significantly altered after World War I. The works of Joze Plecnik's designs have landed the setting on the sought-after UNESCO World Heritage List.

The fairytale historical quarter is a delightful labyrinth of narrow, cobbled streets, charming squares, and colorful buildings. Major highlights to look out for are the Robba Fountain, the Town Hall, the Triple Bridge, and the Ljubljana Cathedral.

If you're fortunate enough to visit on a Friday from spring to fall, visiting the Open Kitchen Fest is a must. Endless street food stalls pop up in Pogacar Square, and live bands add to the festival atmosphere!

Take a day trip to Lake Bled

Lake Bled may be over 30 miles (48 km) from Ljubljana, but it's undoubtedly worth the scenic venture. One of the world's most surreal locations is less than an hour from the capital.

The picturesque chapel floating in the baby blue waters takes center stage. But the surrounding Slovenian Alps offer a postcard view from wherever you wander. You can spend the day relaxing in the sunshine or swimming in the lukewarm waters. For a more thrilling experience, hire kayaks and make your way to an island, or hike up to Lake Bled Castle for views that'll earn thousands of Instagram likes!

When is the best time to visit Ljubljana?

Excluding microstates, Slovenia is the 11th-least visited nation in continental Europe. Its commitment to sustainability has prevented tourists from overrunning the land. Therefore, you can travel from Zagreb to Ljubljana in the summer and have an unforgettable experience.

However, traveling in the spring has upsides compared to its peak summer season. Lake Bled is likely on your travel schedule, and due to its close-knit stature, it can feel overcrowded during the peak season. The average daily high temperature of 70° Fahrenheit (21°C) is pleasant for water activities and more enjoyable for lounging in the sun all day.

There's also a bubbling atmosphere around Ljubljana in the spring. It's the first time in months that locals can sit on outdoor terraces, eating or drinking, due to the cold winter climate. If you're a food enthusiast, traveling between April and June is ideal, as seasonal produce such as organic cherries, vibrant salads, and juicy beef will be at their peak!

As of 2024, no direct flight runs from Zagreb Airport to Ljubljana Airport. One will unlikely appear since getting from one city to the next is made simple with its extensive transportation network. Also, Slovenia's eco-friendly views don't encourage flying for a short distance.

Which is more beautiful, Zagreb or Ljubljana?

Ljubljana is considered more beautiful than Zagreb. Its fairytale old town combines classic baroque and Habsburg-inspired architecture with rainbow-colored buildings. However, Zagreb is also picturesque, especially in the rustic Upper Town, home to cobbled lanes and terracotta roofs on medieval buildings.

Utmärkt transferalternativ.

“Jag använde denna tjänst för en transfer från Split i Kroatien till Perast i Montenegro. Min upplevelse var exceptionell. Min chaufför Bojan var hjälpsam, informativ och såg till att min resa var bekväm och trevlig. Jag rekommenderar starkt denna tjänst.”

Det var en fantastisk resa.

“Vi var mycket nöjda med kvaliteten på den service vi fick från Day Trip. Vi hade två resor med Day Trip: den 31 augusti från Aten till Lefkada och den 7 september från Lefkada tillbaka till Aten. Båda resorna inkluderade stopp vid natursköna platser i Grekland. Båda förarna var utmärkta och tillmötesgående. Vi vill dock särskilt uppmärksamma Panos Peppas, som var vår förare från Lefkada till Aten. Panos var otroligt trevlig och behaglig och levererade enastående kundservice, som inkluderade att han tog hand om allt vårt bagage, gav oss kallt vatten under hela resan, försåg oss med proteinbars, gav oss tryckt material om Korintkanalen (ett av de natursköna stoppen), tog reda på och gav oss terminal- och gateinformation för vårt flyg hem, samt gav oss ett recept på tzatziki.”

Det bästa transportföretaget var som helst

“Vi älskar verkligen det här företaget och har använt det många gånger genom åren för att ta oss från A till B utan krånglet med att hyra bil själva. Utmärkta chaufförer varje gång. Effektiva och professionella. Det är värt varenda krona, och vi rekommenderar ärligt Day Trip till alla. Deras femstjärniga betyg är välförtjänt.”

Prisvärd och säker transport

“Gonzalo från Daytrip var vår chaufför och han var helt fantastisk. Han gjorde allt för att hitta oss eftersom vår mobiltäckning var dålig. Han väntade tålmodigt i lobbyn tills vi kom, så att han kunde köra oss från Tulum Dreams Resort till vårt andra hotell i Cancún, en och en halv timme bort nära flygplatsen inför vår hemresa. Han var artig, respektfull och vänlig. Han såg till att vi hade det bekvämt under hela resan. Snabb och effektiv. Jag rekommenderar detta företag eftersom det inte är lätt eller billigt att hitta en enkelresa från Tulum till Cancún, och detta företag erbjuder en utmärkt tjänst till ett bra pris. Jag kommer definitivt att använda dem igen när jag är i området Cancún/Tulum. Tack DayTrip och Gonzalo.”

Daytrip gör en aldrig besviken

“Marianna hämtade oss för att köra oss från Heraklion till Chania. Vädret var hemskt, och på grund av detta kom Marianna några minuter sent. Hon kontaktade mig för att meddela det. Marianna bor i Chania och gjorde resan väldigt intressant genom att berätta om lokala sevärdheter och saker att göra i Chania. Marianna är en säker förare och vi kände oss alla trygga med både hastigheten och hur bra hon körde i det kraftiga regnet. Hon är en underbar person och talar flytande engelska. Vi rekommenderar verkligen Daytrip, och om du är i Heraklion eller Chania, se till att fråga efter Marianna.”

A service that can't be bettered

“We travelled from Zagreb to Ljubljana. This is an excellent private transfer service. From start to finish we could not have wanted anything more. The booking was simple. We needed a long distance car at short notice and they confirmed our driver within 30 minutes, keeping us fully informed. We had to make a minor change to the booking, all dealt with swiftly and professionally by real people. They even chased us for flight details so they could monitor our arrival. Just as well, as we arrived early and flew through customs, getting to the arrivals hall 1 hour earlier than I booked. I hoped our driver might be there and he was! A smooth drive and 1.5 hours later, we were in our hotel. This was service that can't be beaten. Thank you DayTrip.”

“We have booked six transfers across Croatia,Slovenia & Northern Italy with Daytrip and have just completed the first two from Sagreb to Ljubljana and Ljubljana to Lake Bled. We are extremely pleased with everything Daniel and Matic provided. They arrived on time,were very friendly, informative, clean and English speaking. Car transport from door to door has saved us pulling our luggage to train and bus stations and has given us more time in our destinations. Sightseeing along the way has added to our enjoyment.”
