Do I have to bring anything with me?","faq_answer":"It is important to dress for the season. Slovenia has all 4 seasons, so please check the weather forecast before the day trip regarding temperatures and rainfall. When you are close to the Alps, the weather can change fairly quickly, so your best bet is to always bring an extra layer. We recommend shoes you will be comfortable in. If you are visiting caves, please remember that the caves are cold in the summer, as the cave temperature is constant throughout the year."},{"faq_question":"Is there lunch at a restaurant or do I have to bring my own?","faq_answer":"The best thing about our day trips is that they can be tailored to your own level of fitness. Most of the tours are designed with different activities available, so the choice is entirely yours. Please consult the difficulty section under a specific day trip to see what the difficulty level of the tour and particular activity is."},{"faq_question":"I have food restrictions. Are there restaurants for me?","faq_answer":"It really depends on the level of your restriction. Vegetarian options are fairly easy to find in Slovenia, but vegan dishes, on the other hand, are extremely hard to come by in rural areas of the country and in smaller towns. Please note, that the places where we stop off at for lunch are often traditional and may have difficulties accommodating you outside of their standard menu. We suggest you keep this in mind."},{"faq_question":"How fit do I need to be for Lipica and Karst day trip?","faq_answer":"The best thing about our day trips is that they can be tailored to your own level of fitness.
