Before you go

Local tips

1Contact each restaurant 24 hours ahead to verify the 8-person table and confirm vegan menus.
2Use parking drop-off zones at historic sites to let elderly companions alight before parking.
3Check tire tread depths as late autumn in Slovenia can bring damp, leaf-covered asphalt.

Good to know

1The designated 5-seat station wagon cannot legally seat your party of 8; you must hire an 8-passenger minivan or two cars.
2Do not enter the steep lower gorge trail at Rakov Škocjan; stay exclusively on the flat upper hotel boardwalk.
3Coastal and karst winds (Bora) can occasionally be strong in late October; check regional weather forecasts.
