do both free tours - We took two of their free tours, and the Old Town and Castle was our favorite. The other tour, the Classic Tour, was just OK for us; there was simply too many people on that tour, and so it felt too formulaic. But the Old Town and Castle Tour was smaller, and more interesting & fun. It lasted about 2 hours, and involved a little bit of walking. If you’re in Ljubjana for enough time, it’s good to do both tours as they cover different time periods and different sightseeing stops.
