Tourism is one of the most promising sectors of the economy in Slovenia.
The country is becoming an increasingly frequent destination for tourists. The largest number of tourists comes from Italy, Germany, Austria, Great Britain, the Netherlands, the Croatia and other European countries. In addition, the number of tourists from the United States is steadily growing.

Visiting Slovenia could provide an interesting mixture of leisure, recreation and exciting excursions.

Slovenia is especially attractive to those who enjoy mountains and lakes, or spending time on the ski slopes. There are more than seven thousand kilometres of marked mountain trails for hiking and climbing. You can also try high-adrenaline sports or spend time on the Mediterranean coast. Last but not least, Slovenia has numerous natural spas, where you can take care of your health with help of thermal mineral waters.

But you could also choose to "travel back through time" in museums, castles, churches and galleries and then go on to enjoy yourself in the evening at one of our casinos as well.

We invite you to come and get to know the country yourself!
