Our next stop will be lunch at one of the traditional Slovak restaurants, where you can taste the local cuisine, before continuing to Liptovská Mara lake, where we will stop to admire the stunning scenery. The tour then continues to one of the most spectacular caves in Central Europe - the Demänovská Cave of Liberty, where we will join an official cave tour led by a professional cave guide and discover remarkable chambers, underground turquoise-blue river and stunning light show, all deep below the surface.

The final stop on our tour will be Štrbské Pleso in the High Tatras, which is Slovakia’s most popular mountain destination. Enjoy a guided walk around the picturesque glacial lake surrounded by alpine peaks and forests while learning more about the nature and history of the Carpathian Mountains.
