Passport Health – Travel Vaccines for Slovenia

Overall rating: 4 stars – 2 reviews
★★★★
“Professional and courteous“
“The nurse at the Jasper Avenue Edmonton clinic was very pleasant and accommodating, knew what she was talking about and explained items in a clear and professional manner, but she was also respectful of my choice and decisions regarding which medication/treatment to accept. Knowledgeable and gave clear instructions. More than I expected from a Slovenia consult.”

★★★★
“Organized, informative, and courteous staff“
“The nurse was very nice and explained in details about the vaccines needed for Slovenia and additional recommendations. An informative booklet of info was prepared ahead of time for you. Not pushy about the vaccines to take, let you choose. It was easy and quick to get an appointment, esp’ly after mentioning that I’ll be leaving soon.”

If you are a non-EU citizen, you must register with Slovenian police within 72 hours of arrival. If you’re staying in a hotel or using a tour group, they should register you.

You must have official identification on your person at all times in Slovenia. Be sure to keep your passport in a secure location while out in public areas.

Visit the Canadian Travel and Tourism website for more information on entry and exit requirements.

What is the Climate Like in Slovenia?

Most of the country experiences warm summers and cold winters.

The summer months see temperatures in a rough range of 21 to 27 degrees. But, July and August can reach up to 30 degrees. Thunderstorms are common in summer months, especially in the mountain regions.

Winters are cold and more humid. Temperatures hover around zero with dense fog in the mountains.

How Safe is Slovenia?

Slovenia has experienced infrequent terrorist strikes, protests, and public demonstrations. Take precautions while in public and avoid demonstrations when they occur. Stay vigilant in large crowds as small demonstrations can escalate quickly.

The country’s crime rate is low. Purse snatching and pickpocketing are the most common crimes in tourist areas. Vehicle break-ins and theft do occur. Always lock the doors and park on well-lit streets or in garages when you can.

When drinking or attending nightclubs, keep your wits about you at all times and use common sense. Do not accept open drinks from people you don’t know and don’t leave your drinks unattended for any amount of time.

 

Ljubljana Old Town

Documentation of human habitation in Slovenia dates back more than 250,000 years. This country has many opportunities to immerse yourself in history. One of the most popular places to do this is at Slovenia’s Ljubljana Old Town.

Located on the bank of the Ljubljanica River, this town is a must-visit. It offers a mix of impressive architecture and lovely restaurants, bars and cafes.

Grab a bite to eat in this town while enjoying incredible views of the Castle Hill or Preseren Square.

What Should I Take to Slovenia?

Below, you will find a detailed list of essentials you’ll want to take with you on your trip to Slovenia:

  • Secure Bag – You are required to carry official identification at all times. You’ll need a safe way to carry that around. You must have a receipt for everything you buy in Slovenia. Official inspectors may request proof of sale at any time.
  • Credit Cards and Cash – Have credit cards and cash to pay for items or services. Traveller’s checks are not accepted in most locations.
  • Layers of Clothing – Temperature varies throughout the day. While you may be comfortable in a t-shirt during the day, you may want longer pants and a jacket once the sun goes down. Be prepared so you’re never too warm or too cold.
