| Getting from the airport |
|
When your visit to Slovenia starts with flying in, you will land on Slovenia´s main international airport Ljubljana or in slovenian aerodrom Jožeta Pučnika.If you didn´t pre-book a transfer to your destination, there are a few options available. The quickest is to take taxi stationed right in front of the exit from the airport building. Of course like everywhere in the world this type of transfer is the most expensive one. Using one of the taxis from the airport taxi stand to the city center of Ljubljana, which is some 25 km away, will cost you some 60 eur. Much cheaper are low-cost taxi companies as Airtrail, that offer transfers from Ljubljana airport to Ljubljana city per flat rate of 30 eur. Problem is just you need to prebook them in advance, otherwise you will wait some 30 minutes on your cab, which is not something you want after a long flight.
Even cheaper are shuttle companies standing at the parking place across the main airport terminal. They offer shared ride transfers with Minivan to the city Ljubljana for 10 eur per person, what is a fair price, specially because some of the companies offer door to door service per same flat rate. Of course there is also a downside, like always. Sometimes you can wait for your shuttle bus for a full hour and if you travel in company with two others, price per person is the same if you book low cost taxi for 30 eur. That will cost you the same, just your driver will wait for you in front of the arrivals terminal exit, with your name on a small board, ready to go. After you hop in your cab, driving to city center should not take more than 25 minutes.
Third option is public transport. There is no train from the airport, only one bus line. Bus drives regularly from 5:00h in morning till 20:00h in the evening every full hour. Bus ticket to Ljubljana main station will cost you 4.5 eur and yourney last approximately 45 minutes.Tickets are purchased on the bus, all the buses are clean and safe. Checked personally :)
What ever you gona choose, people in Slovenia are always friendly to visitors and likewise drivers. In Slovenia there is no such thing as obligatory tip. However the habit is to tip at some 10% and please look in the eyes when talking to or shaking hand. That is something slovenians pay great attention to. Not looking in the eyes of your counterpart means you´re not honest. Honesty and nature is something people in this small but unbelivable beautiful country value the most.
