      Delightful Slovenian evening
      While our group was dining at a restaurant, a group of young people from Traditional Slovenian Evenings performed music and dances while dressed in traditional costumes. It was a delightful, entertaining, and educational experience for us. Seeing the young people so obviously having fun while keeping traditions alive was most enjoyable. They finished up by having us participate in the Slovenian Hat Dance. I won't spoil the surprise by telling you what that was, but it was a far cry from the Mexican Hat Dance.

      The show was a lot of fun, food was great and overall better than expected.
      We had our show at restaurant setica the show was very authentic and the host was clear and very helpful. Food was great. Loved the Chicken and pork cutlet and the pear teran desert. So good! The actors were very nice and made sure everyone had fun. There are fun dancing and games and everyone in the audience will have a chance to join weather voluntarily or involuntarily. A lot of clean good wholesome fun recommended for even young children and older folks. My 72 year old aunt enjoyed very much! They give you a nice souvenir at the end. Such a memorable evening.

      Very authentic - the dancing was wonderful - a very enjoyable evening!
      This was our first trip to Slovenia. Other reviews on TripAdvisor convinced me that this experience was worthwhile and I'm so glad that we booked. The music and dance troupe and our host Thomas were great. They welcomed us with open arms, big smiles and a shot of authentic local liqueur. That got the evening off to a great start. The dancing was definitely the highlight of the evening. It was also very interesting to learn more about the traditional costumes of each region of Slovenia. I highly recommend this experience - it was a lot of fun and very interesting.

      Fabulous Night
      We attended the traditional folklore night at Ljubljana and we had a ball. After a huge four course traditional dinner we were entertained with traditional songs and dances performed by people dressed in the beautiful regional costumes. Then they got everyone up to join in and it was wonderful to see people from many different countries and different age groups really enjoying themselves and mixing freely with each other . A great night out and highly recommended.

      Great evening
      I really enjoyed the folk dance presentation and the music. The dancers were fun and the presentation insightful. Plan for a slow, social meal (about 2 hours). The food is delicious and plentiful. We had a set menu as part of a tour group but a menu is available. I recommend making reservations. This is one of the oldest restaurants in town and definitely worth a visit.

    Visited this restaurant with a large group of friends and we had a fantastic time. We were given a warm welcome with dried fruits and wine before we were shown to our table. The dancers were very professional, they explained their costumes and regions they were from and they danced with an Accordion player playing in tune. Some of the group participated in the “hat dance” and our guy won! We had so much fun and we were all given wooden fridge magnets before we all danced into the courtyard with the dancers and took a group photo. Dragana was very friendly throughout my email correspondence with her when enquiring about our group booking and she gave me a big hug on the night. One of the highlights of my trip in Ljublana and all my friends were impressed and enjoyed the show & dinner. Highly Recommended!

    I had dinner at a nice traditional restaurant. The food was ok and the service was excellent. The highlight of the entire night is the 6 traditional Slovenian dancers. They are dressed in their traditional customs from the Lake Bled region.
    Their dances are very lively and cheeky. Then they invite diners to participate and make the evening full of interactive fun. I ended up dancing in a long conga line going out from the restaurant to the street and back.
    A highly recommendable experience, one full of music, dance and games!!

    The evening was fun filled with Slovenian traditional dance, clothing, & historical commentary. The performers were genuinely engaged & were able to engage a wide age range of audience members.
    A lovely, engaging evening.

    My husband and I loved the interactive experience of the evening. The hostess was gracious and took care of us. All was explained in two languages. The dancers & musicians were engaging, tried to get all of us involved. We learned something about Slovenia and folk customs & dancing. This was definitely worth doing with such a short stop in Ljubljana. One improvement would be to serve the dried fruit in tiny cups for safety sake.

    After a very dreary, rainy day spent in Ljubljana, we could not have asked for a better way to spend our evening and revive our spirits than to participate in the traditional Slovenian dinner and show. The performance of the dancers was entertaining to watch, not only for their coordinated dance routine but for the pure joy with which they danced, a joy that proved infectious. I can tell you as a teacher that the students I chaperoned on this trip were sometimes hard to impress; but their faces lit up and the room soon filled with their laughter as they participated in games or took to the dance floor themselves. Thank you for such a memorable night and for anyone reading, do yourself a favor, and catch their show!

    So enjoyable. The kids were off their phones and everyone was thoroughly immersed in the goodhearted games, dances. It was participatory and the dancers were genuine, fun, and kind. Thank you for sharing your dances and games with us! It was the best cultural experience we have ever had!

    What a fantastic experience. I would highly recommend this to anyone.

    We ended up doing this on our first night in Slovenia after our original booking was rescheduled and it was such a great start to our trip.

    The entertainment part of the evening was so much fun. It was wonderful to watch the dancing, listen to the singing and learn some of the history too. And there were also dances and games to get involved with which were great fun too.

    The food can be different as locations can be different but where we went was absolutely lovely. I'm pretty fussy but there was more than enough I enjoyed to leave me feeling really full.

    If you're unsure on whether to book then definitely go for it.

    I am the type of guy who enjoys history, good food and great company. The Traditional Slovenian Dinner is all this and much more! They managed to entertain a big crowd by providing much more than we first expected. Food was the best we had during our 6 days in Slovenia and the dancers were amazing. At the end, we were all dancing and singing together. I could not recommend them enough. Well done guys and keep up the good work!

    I wouldn't recommend this if you're by yourself. I was definitely expecting more of a show and more participation with the way that the event was described, but instead had a lot of downtime sitting there with nothing to do and kept getting bored. The food was good though, and when there was some dancing it was fun to watch.

    Dear friend I am so sorry to hear you were bored on our evening. We always try so hard to include everyone especially the individual guests visiting us. I do remember we had 2 bigger groups and they had some medical problems so we maybe did not have to much time to focus on everyone. So sorry you felt this way. Hope you maybe visit us again and you can be our special guest free of charge. Love from Ljubljana / Slovenia SlovenianEvening
