Ljubljana is pleasantly compact, so getting around is rarely a complicated affair. Walk through the historic centre, hop on a bicycle, catch a bus or let someone else take the wheel. Whether you are heading across town, searching for a parking space or travelling with tired feet and an enthusiastic suitcase, there is a convenient way to get there.
Choose your preferred mode of transport below and find practical information, prices, routes and useful tips for getting around Ljubljana.
BicikeLJ bicycle-sharing system
Need a pair of wheels for a quick ride across town? Pick up a BicikeLJ bicycle at one station and return it at another. The stations are located across the wider city centre, making the system a simple and affordable choice for short journeys.
Ljubljana Bike
Want to explore Ljubljana on two wheels without watching the clock? Ljubljana Bike offers seasonal bicycle rental for longer rides around the city, with plenty of time for riverside stops, hidden corners and an extra coffee or two along the way.
City buses
Ljubljana’s city buses can take you from the centre to neighbourhoods, attractions and locations farther afield. Find out how to pay for your journey, where to buy or top up an Urbana card and how to plan your route without accidentally taking the scenic option.
Taxi
When your feet have had enough, the weather changes its mind or your luggage refuses to cooperate, a taxi can come to the rescue. Check how taxi fares are calculated, how to book a ride and which taxi and pre-booked transport providers operate in Ljubljana and the surrounding area.
Private Chauffeur Service
Prefer to travel according to your own timetable? A private chauffeur service is a comfortable option for airport transfers, business visits, events, day trips and journeys around Slovenia or to nearby destinations. You choose where and when; someone else handles the road.
Parking
Arriving by car? Find information about public car parks, short-term parking zones, parking charges and the rules worth knowing before you leave your vehicle. A little planning can save you from circling the same block while insisting that the space was definitely free a moment ago.
Kavalir
Meet Kavalir, Ljubljana’s small electric helper. These environmentally friendly vehicles offer free rides within the pedestrianised city centre and are intended primarily for older visitors, people with reduced mobility and others who may find walking longer distances difficult.
