Maribor sits in one of Slovenia's main wine regions so if you want to taste local wine, the Vodole wine fountain is a great and fun way to do it. Similar to the Marezige wine fountain on the seaside, this is a place where you can enjoy different samples from local producers. The Maribor region is strong on white wine.
The best way to visit Vodole is by renting a bike in Maribor and making it a day trip. The views are stunning along the way and with a bike, you don't need to worry about driving after drinking.
