About this experience

Cosmopolitan Medieval Bled Tour is a unique personalized 2 hours walking tour in the full medieval-early renaissance knight costume (with single handed sword, francisca axe and the dagger) on the lake shore ob Bled (on its eastern part), where views over the most of the sights are concentrated. Beside being a keen local turist guide I am also fan on medieval history and culture, knights, weapons, and castles. In first part we talk about 1000 years of middle ages, feudalism, castles... Furthermore, standard weapons of the knight are presented - sword, throwing axe, dagger. Beside of presenting elements of stunning natural, cultural sights, myths and legends, Bled was also the place of pilgrimage, healing resort, where major historical events during the first and the second World War took place, summer residence of Yugoslav royal family and residence of communist president Josip Broz Tito,where he was forging the worlds third block of non-aligned countries during the Cold War period.
