Amazing experience, the couple who run the shuttle and restaurant were so friendly and helpful. The gorge is a must see and you are left to explore and walk at your own pace. The beer and dumplings were fantastic and such a lovely setting to enjoy them after your walk.

Perfect timing, everything is prepared for a hassle free experience. The dumpling tasting was great too.

Beautiful scenic walk through Vintgar Gorge followed by a lovely taster of local beers and dumplings in a gorgeous setting. The tour was well organised and very relaxed, with friendly staff, the scenery is stunning and not to be missed. Would do the trip again in a heartbeat. A must when visiting Lake Bled

Their storefront doesn’t exist anymore. The meet up address leads you to a locked door. There is a hand written sign on their side door that said a shuttle would pick us up at the front door. We didn’t see this after we boarded a different bus and had to get a shuttle back. It was a good thing we were early. The shuttle turns up to be a taxi company. The driver said they would pick us up at the end point and if he wasn’t there to call. He gave us a business card. We arrived at the designated end point. The natour bar was nice with food and beer tasting but no transport came for us. I called the number on the card and the taxi company said the natour bar person had to call them directly. After asking the person behind the counter for assistance he said that taxi would take 20 mins to get there and another 10 mins to get back to bled. We had a car waiting to pick us up in 20 mins so we cancelled the taxi and had our driver come get us instead which added $30 euro to our fare. I think the tour company no longer exists and turned their operation into a bar and that is what greats you at the end of the gorge. The gorge was beautiful but the experience with natour-bled was terrible. Would not recommend using them unless you are walking into it knowing what to expect.

The walk through the gorge is beautiful and worth by itself. The hike out to the eating place could be challenging for some but it was so worth it as the beer sampler and the štruklji was amazing with five different flavors to sample. Having the ride there and back from a short distance from downtown Blad was also great.

Very beautiful scenery mostly flat except the walk up to the bar and taxi pickup but very worth it. We even spotted a rare goat on the opposite cliff side.

Very good connections to the gorge which minimized walking and maximized time in gorge. The transportation, food and guidance provided excellent value

Lovely wander through Vintgar gorge at your own pace. We had 3 children Ages 4,5 and 7 (oldest has down syndrome) the walk was manageable and the tasting beers and dumplings went down a treat. Would definitely recommend.

Lots of vertical uphill. Poorly marked trail. Many lost souls on the trail. Waterfall is underwhelming.

We had a really great time at the Vintgar Gorge and this tour made it so simple. The company was very good with communicating when the gorge was closed. There was a lot of rain the original morning we had booked, they quickly let us know the park would be closed and were able to move our tour to the following day so we were able to enjoy all the beauty the gorge had to offer. The tasting was a nice way to end and the dumplings were delicious! I would definitely recommend this tour for your trip to Slovenia.

Super well organized and flexible! Very memorable experience. Fun nature adventure but safe infrastructure
Carrie_B, Oct 2024
Well organised from start to finish. Clear instructions and easy to find meeting points. Can arrange own travel, gorge tickets and buy the food independently but easier as a package. No time pressures, spend as long as you want and just get the next shuttle.

It was a lovely experienced, you get to go at your own pace and enjoy every minute of nature. At the end you get to have a taste of the local before and a yummy dessert.

The agency was not easy to find, because there are few more of them. But the young lady was very kind and everything was prepared and ready for us.
Even crowded it is a very nice trip and a beautiful place to see.

The walk in nature is beautiful; the tasting includes only eight small Slovenian dumplings. We had to pay extra to complete our meal.

Ein sehr schöner Ausflug. Ganz tolle Natur. Gut organisiert. Absolut sehenswert. Wir werden das jedem empfehlen.
Sandra_J, Jul 2024
Rapport qualité prix. On a trouvé ça cher.
38€, alors que l entrée même est à 10€
On a pas manger pour 30€ au point nature pour déguster les spécialité locale. Donc je pense que votre prix est plus cher que si on avait payer nous même séparément...
Mais les gorges étaient magnifiques
