Where to Drink in Ljubljana

Conveniently for you and the hens, all the best bars in this often underestimated city are compactly located in the city centre.

Metelkova is the answer for alternative hens who feel at home in an arty, boho establishment. Down by the River Ljubljanica, you'll find all the super scenic spots when you and the girls need a break from our awesome range of Ljubljana activities! Rest those weary hen legs in some of the outdoor seating that overlooks the calm waters below.

Around the Cathedral there also a whole host of bars serving hens in need of a palate tickling tipple! It's a hugely impressive place for a sweet-spot blend of culture and cocktails!

Sights & Sounds

Sights - Sometimes a nice walk is all you need to wash away the aches and pains from the previous evening's excesses, and Ljubljana's gorgeous Tivoli Park is the perfect place to do just that. It's a real oasis of nature and visitors are often struck by how peaceful the park's atmosphere is. With winding paths and a sea of green grass all around it's easy to get lost here, and we're inclined to think that's a good thing.

Sounds - Ljubljana's youthful fashionistas all like to party at Klub Cirkus. This party-spot is a fiesta of good drinks, good music and good times. It's the biggest club in the city and you'll more than likely find yourselves throwing shapes on the dance floor well into the small hours.
Club Palatium is seriously funky and plays host to some of the city's best DJs as well as exciting up-and-coming music acts with not one, but two floors of partying madness!

Shopping in Ljubljana

Ljubljana is so done with communism, and the visually arresting fashion you'll see on the streets and indeed in stores totally reflects that. The girls in Slovenia have a real eye for style and they know a bargain when they see one - which is probably why this city is full of vintage stores. Retro-chic is in fashion across the mainland at the moment and if you're going to dress for the town, you need to give your wardrobe a blast from the past!

Divas Preloved - So, while this vintage shop doesn't have the greatest name, there's plenty of stylish tops and dresses from yesteryear on display that would look great in anybody's wardrobe, as well as designer goods at cut-prices!
Where? Gosposka ulica 3, Ljubljana

Getting Around Ljubljana

Ljubljana deserves to be explored on foot, but we understand that a long day in the city, whether you're sightseeing or shopping can actually be seriously tiring! It's times like these where you'll want to make the most of Ljubljana's excellent bus network. Most buses start as early as 3:30am and finish as late as 10:30pm, and you can buy an Urbana card that'll store cash for quick use on the bus that'll save you from foraging for coins in your purses.
Although, soaring through the streets on a Public Bike makes for a great mode of transport too!

Hen Days

So you've decided to take your bunch of giggling girls on tour, but what kind of hen party frolics can you expect in Ljubljana? Whitewater Rafting, Go Karting, Paintballing and Kayaking are all perfect for group of hens who fancy unleashing their inner G.I. Jane's. Although if it's rest and relaxation you're after, then our Pedicure, Pampering Day and Wine Tasting events are more likely to fit the bill - but surely the bride-to-be would love to release any pre-wedding tension on our Target Shooting experience?
