Bus Hire in Novo Mesto, Slovenia

The Krka river loops so tightly around Novo Mesto's old town that the settlement sits on what is effectively a peninsula, water on three sides and a single narrow neck of land connecting it to the surrounding hills. Founded by Habsburg emperor Rudolf IV in 1365, the town has served as the regional capital of Dolenjska ever since, a role reflected in the baroque facades still lining its main square.

Away from the old town, Novo Mesto is a genuine industrial city too, home to Krka, one of Central Europe's larger pharmaceutical manufacturers, and to a long-running automotive plant. That mix of heritage core and working economy gives coach groups two very different reasons to stop here, whichever brings them.
