Visit to Lake Bled
Michelle Sandford, from our Holiday Administration team, took a trip Lake Bled on one of our Guided Walking holidays - She let us in on her adventures and experiences there.
This year I was luckily enough to be picked to visit Lake Bled on a familiarisation trip. I easily found the leader at the airport and we were coached to the hotel. We gathered in the reception before dinner and went for a nice wonder around the town to get our bearings. The supermarket was pointed out which was very close to the hotel where we were able to buy packed lunch bits.
