We had a wonderful experience! Top guides and top day! We were warmly welcomed by the team and felt safe throughout the whole trip. They provided us not only all the equipment and photos incl. in the Price, but also explained everything we saw around the soča valley. The guide was genuine and a lot of fun. It was more like kayaking with a group of friends than a booked trip with strangers. ☺️
Really glad that we booked with them.
We are definitely coming back!

The kayak tour was super fun! We had a group of 6 with our guide, Anze, and he was calm and nice with clear instructions. Felt safe the entire way, even without kayak experience.

A fun day on the water with amazing views along the way. Our guide Anze was knowledgeable and helpful and the photos we were sent after were great. Better than the standard one group photo.

This was one of the best experiences we’ve had traveling to Europe. Our guide Flo was an expert at his sport and made everyone on the tour feel comfortable with kayaking rapids. He shared information about the area and answered any questions we had. The experience was simply unforgettable. The scenery going down the river was breathtaking. Would recommend 100%!

Rafting on the Soca river was an incredible experience. In spring the color of the Soca river is so beautiful and with the surrounding nature and the snow topped mountains it is an unforgettable experience. For safety reason and because of the water level, we had to switch to a raft instead of kayacking, but our guide Matic and the driver Luka did their best to make it an even more fun experience and they were successful. We enjoyed the trip and will surely retur to Bovec and the Soca river.

River and surrounding mountains were gorgeous! Highly recommend this trip. Even on a cloudy day the scenery and experience was worth it.

We had a great experience with our guide Diego, who was really passionate about Kayacking. and the area. Although we had never done Wildwater Kayacking before, we have never felt unsafe, but it was just a lot of fun to ride the waves. The stunning beauty of the nature of the river and valley completes the exceptional experience.

Really good experience. The team make it feel personal and fun. And the river itself is clear and beautiful.

Wunderschöne Tour über den Soca Fluss.
Die Organisation und die Infos, sowie die Einweisung vom Tourguide waren super.
Man fängt langsam an und fährt dann über mehrere Stromschnellen. Zum Fluss wird man hingebracht und auch wieder abgeholt.
Ich kann es nur weiterempfehlen.

Title: Beautiful setting but not suitable for children and lack of support
We were a family of four (two adults, two children aged 11 and 15) and had taken care to check in advance that the activity would be suitable for my 11-year-old daughter, beginner and 1.40 m tall. We were assured that there would be no problem, when booking by email.
Unfortunately, we found that the Welcoming was expeditious: we had to change and prepare very quickly, the kayaks were heavy and no help was offered to launch them. The explanations were very succinct and given quickly in English, with no particular effort to adapt to Francophones.
From the first few minutes, my 11-year-old daughter was swept away by the current. My husband couldn’t reach her, and it was finally the instructor who managed to bring her kayak back... but she had to walk back. Concerned, we expressed our doubts about the continuation of the activity. The answer was that we were the only ones who could decide whether or not it continued and that if we were worried, it was better for her to come out. Given the conditions, we preferred not to take any risks, so my daughter could not participate and was very disappointed.
Meanwhile, our 15-year-old found the course beautiful, but quite difficult. The guide stayed far ahead without helping her, he didn’t help her reassemble her kayak on arrival either — another traveler did.
In summary:
• Pros: the river and the landscape are beautiful, the activity can be very nice for adults or older sports teenagers.
• Cons: not child-friendly, lack of guidance and empathy, minimal Welcoming and support.
If you are travelling with young children or teenagers as a family, I do not recommend this activity. For adults or experienced teens, this can be a nice outing... provided you don't expect personalized follow-up.

Es war echt mega, die Gegend ist wunderschön und die Veranstalter sind sehr freundlich, echt lustig und cool drauf. Es wird alles sehr gut erklärt und es werden auch Übungen für Balance auf dem Kayak vorgeschlagen. Die Tatsächliche Zeit am Wasser ist ca 1,5 Stunden, und das passt perfekt. Fotos werden vom Guide gemacht und als QR Code von den Teilnehmenden gescannt. War wirklich eine sehr tolle Erfahrung :)

Leuke ervaring om de rivier af te kajakken. Er zitten verschillende stroomversnelling in het water en de omgeving is prachtig

Hicimos kayak en el río Soča con un grupo de amigos, la experiencia fue súper positiva y nos divertimos muchos. El paisaje es excepcional y nuestra guía, Spela, fue muy simpática y nos habló en castellano aunque la actividad estaba reservada en inglés.

Tolle Aussicht während der Tour und super Guide. Perfekt für Anfänger aber auch erfahrene Fahrer haben ihren Spaß.
