Driving is one of the most convenient ways to get around Slovenia, and there is a well-maintained road network which makes travelling easy. While driving in Slovenia, you must carry around the mandatory safety equipment at all times, and in winter, this also includes winter tyres on the car and snow chains in the boot.
Slovenians drive on the right-hand side of the road, and use dipped headlights all of the time, even during the day.
Breakdown and roadside assistance are available, and you will find petrol stations easily on both the motorways and around towns and cities.
Buses are a very flexible way to get around Slovenia without a car and run to almost anywhere in the country. You can purchase your tickets in advance from the station or the driver on the bus, depending on your preference. Slovenian buses travel between the major cities as well as out into the countryside. In this, they provide excellent access to wherever you want to go at a low cost.
There are also many trains in Slovenia; They primarily connect to either other cities or to places of interest that tourists want to visit. Trains also connect to neighbouring countries, offering an easy route to explore more of Europe. They are a decent way to get around Slovenia but don’t provide the same expansive coverage as buses.
