We are on the Best of Central Europe Prague to Slovenia Sept 8-22nd trip. Anyone have any recommendations for a driver to take us sept 22nd from Lake Bled to see the caves/Castle and then to our hotel in Ljubljana? Ive reached out to Bled tours to explore cost and availability. If it anyone is going on the same tour maybe you’d like to share the driver with us? Sarah

My information is from a trip in May 2022, so please double check it is still accurate by going directly to website.
I went from Ljubljana to the caves/Castle on a day tour by Slovenia Explorer. It was a small group of 6 and a lovely day. I'm not sure if they also pick up in the Lake Bled area or if you would need to take public transport to Ljubljana to join the tour. Here is the link to their website.

I think Slovenia Explorer is a good option.
You may also check with the RS-recommended Private Guide Slovenia. I've never done an in-person tour with them, but I did a couple of virtual tours with them during COVID. https://pg-slovenia.com/

Late to the party, and, this may not be your cup of tea, but it is also possible to do
this yourself. I suppose it depends on how much luggage you have and your
financial constraints.
Take bus from Bled back to Ljubljana bus station. If your hotel is within range, you
could drop off your bags at the hotel. Then there are public buses that go from
bus station to Postojna. My bus dropped me off in the parking lot for the caves.
Didn't go to the castle; there are definitely shuttle buses that make the rounds
between the caves and castle.
