Description

Discover Ljubljana’s creative soul on a street art & alternative culture bike tour. Ride through colourful neighbourhoods, explore Metelkova and Rog, and uncover the city’s artistic side.
See Ljubljana from a completely different perspective — through street art, creativity, and alternative culture. This unique bike tour goes far beyond the classic Old Town route. Instead, explore the city’s vibrant underground scene, bold murals, creative districts, and the communities that shaped them.

Hop on a comfortable bike and follow your local guide into neighborhoods that most visitors never experience. Start with iconic riverside graffiti, then head to the colorful backstreets where Ljubljana’s urban artists express messages of identity, politics, humor, and rebellion.

Continue into the legendary Metelkova Mesto, an autonomous cultural center filled with sculptures, mosaics, murals, and ever-changing art pieces. Learn how this former Yugoslav military base became one of Europe’s most unique creative spaces.

From there, ride to the Rog Factory district, once an abandoned factory and now a hub of alternative workshops, skate culture, and socially engaged artists. Your guide will share insights into the stories, controversies, and transformations that shaped Ljubljana’s counterculture.

Along the way, enjoy plenty of photo stops, discover hidden tags and mini-murals, and hear stories about the artists behind Ljubljana’s most iconic street art pieces. Leave with a deeper understanding of the city’s creative energy – dynamic, expressive, and proudly independent.
