Even as the aftermath of the recent floods made headlines, Slovenia’s touristic heartbeat remains undeterred. With the prime travel season still vibrant and active, Slovenia continues to shine as one of Europe’s top destinations.

Recent surveys by the European Tourism Board indicate a strong recovery trend, with over 80% of Slovenian destinations fully operational and welcoming tourists with their famed hospitality. This data contrasts sharply with last weekend’s flood reports, affirming the country’s resilience.

While minor disruptions did emerge in certain pockets, Slovenia’s commitment to its global guests remains unparalleled. The Slovenian Tourist Board (STB) has been actively updating travellers with real-time data, ensuring their journeys through this European wonder are seamless.
