Enjoy a safe, adrenaline-filled ride by tackling the amazing rapids of the stunning Soča River as it carves its way through the pristine landscape of the Alpine world. Rafting has never been this much fun!

Known for its crystal-clear properties, incredible surroundings and enviable number of amazing rapids, the Soča River is the emerald queen of Slovenian mountains. There’s no better way of exploring this incredible Alpine jewel than by rafting down its rapids. Soča river rafting is an adrenaline boost and a unique scenic adventure all in one.

The Boka-Trnovo route involves a diverse combination of easy and more challenging rapids. This 8 km long descent begins at the 106 m Boka waterfall, though in summer months the journey is shortened by 2 km due to lower water levels. Tackling the rapids and pools on a big raft (8 rafters) lasts about 1.5 hours and includes class IV rapids. For the entire experience, which includes time spent changing and transport, allow up to 2.5 hours.

If you want to go Soča rafting, Bovec is the place to go. It is the watersport capital of Slovenia. Before venturing on your trip through the picturesque town, you will start by signing a waiver form with our guide, who will then present you with the necessary equipment and take you to the river where your Bovec rafting adventure begins. Once in your wetsuit and familiarised with the safety instructions, your rafting descent will begin. You’ll start off on easier sections with the ride getting bumpier as you go. Our guide will make sure your rafting adventure is packed with additional activities like body rafting and other super fun boat-related stunts. At the end of your trip, our driver will already be waiting for you on the shore to take you back. Photos and memories will be exchanged and a fantastic time will be had.

Let’s hit the water!

We advise to wear your swimming suit before your arrival to the office. You will get wetsuit so you will not be cold and that is all you need for rafting!

We believe that your experience will be better in smaller groups. Therefore, there will be a maximum of 8 guests per guide.

On our tours you will have professional local guides. Our guides will make sure that you will have expert guiding combined with great fun and memorable experience.

It is best that you eat before the activity and take nothing with you. Let a dry pair of underwear and a towel wait for you in the van.

Did you know that rafting if even cooler in rain? That’s right, and one of few activities to do in “bad” weather.

Rafting course from Boka to Trnovo is suitable for everyone. You have to paddle only as much as you feel comfortable.

However, it is not suitable for pregnant women, people with mobility impairments, and non-swimmers. If you have health issues please consult with a guide.

Children are welcome, but rafting boats are designed to be safe only for children higher than 120cm.

Our experiences are priced per person, as listed. However, some experiences have a minimum requirement of 2 participants. Solo travelers can still book these experiences but will need to cover the cost for two participants. If a group forms for the same experience, we can refund the difference in cost to the solo traveler.

First off: the hike of approximately 1 hour to the cave can be quite intense. However, we train jiu jitsu daily which has quite some cardio, and for us it was very doable. The hike was fun and had a few very nice viewpoints. After the hike, our amazing guide Anže gave us a good training on how to use the caving/climbing gear to go down steep/vertical slopes and back up. After getting ready, which took about 45 mins, we went into the cave. The cave itself is very large, and had some really nice features of which Anže was very knowledgeable and was able to explain a lot of details. After walking through the cave for a while (15-30 mins?) we arrived at the best part: an abyss of 40m straight down. This was an amazing experience, which was thrilling yet felt very safe. Even my wife, who has fear of heights, enjoyed the experience. She was scared/frozen for a bit, but Anže calmed her down, after which she was able to go all the way to the bottom and enjoyed it a lot! After the descent into the abyss, we climbed back up via another path, and experienced some more amazing parts of the cave. About 3 hours into the trip (including hike and preparation) we exited the cave and hiked back down to our starting point. This took another 30 mins I think. All in all, around 4 hours total for our trip. The experience was really unique, felt safe, but still got the adrenaline pumping!! Both of us agree: 10/10 would do again!

We took the 4-hour "City Bike Tour Ljubljana" with our guide, Andrej. Andrej was fabulous: filled with informative, historical, and humorous details. The ride allowed us to see many parts of Ljubljana in a short time, and Andrej tied it all together. The ride was not too difficult (we are seniors). The lunch stop was perfect (Slovenian charcuterie, plus a pour of local wine): enough to eat, water to drink, and a convenient WC. We recommend this tour (and Andrej) without reservation. We could not hope for a better experience.

It was really wonderful experience! Luka our guide is professional and passionately guiding us to the beautiful Pokljuka! We are beginner, but thanks to him, we were able to complete the snowshoeing safely. We highly recommend this!

This was a truly amazing experience! We really enjoyed our beautiful Seven Lakes Valley hike with an overnight stay at a mountain hut. The alpine scenery of mountains throughout the hike was simply stunning especially the crystal clear emerald lakes, which are absolutely breathtaking! The cosy mountain hut was a lifesaver after a long day’s hike, dinner was hearty and delicious, atmosphere was lively and the beds were warm and comfortable - overall a great experience! What made it all the more enjoyable was being in the safe hands of our brilliant guide, Klemen who was not only very experienced, professional and knowledgeable, but he was also extremely helpful and accommodating. He went out of his way to take care of our needs during the journey. From the start, he was very responsive and proactive in helping us arrange our itinerary in the best way possible to maximise our time there. We also did a private rock climbing session with him after the hike and it was awesome! We definitely enjoyed our time in Slovenia with him and highly recommend going with this company and a private guide like him if you are looking for a customised trip.
