Hike, Canyon and Raft the Slovenian Alps

A really well organised a d fun trip. Jan and urban were bothered great guides. Canyoning was the definite highlight.

From start to finish was organised. We were picked up from the airport by one of our guides in the team van, even though our flight landed almost 2 hours late! Which put us at ease. A group chat is set up so you can communicate with your group. Meeting times always made clear. Guides were great! So fun, inclusive and knowledgeable. Rafting was amazing on the soca river and canyoning was thrilling! We also had time to do another activities on this trip like Europes longest Zipline (a 2 min walk from the hotel) Night time kayaking on lake bled and paragliding over lake bled. Many stop offs too for photos, a bite to eat, packed so much into one day! Truly amazing. Would happily do this tour again, Will be coming back to Slovenia!!!

A great weekend in Bled, and sampling the extreme sports hub of Europe!

Great trip-- Very outdoorsy, lovely rafting and canyoning -- Slovenia is stunning!!

The group was brilliant fun and the activities were well organised with excellent local guides.

This was my third Much Better Adventures trip and it exceeded all expectations.

The ‘hiking and rafting’ day was 12 hours long and jam-packed with lots of scenic stops and walks.

In the morning, we started with a short ascent to Pericnik Waterfall, which you then walk behind. This was followed by a 30-minute stop at Lake Jasna for lunch before heading to Vršič Pass for a 45-minute walk.

In the afternoon, we rafted at Soča - I couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful place to have my first rafting experience. The experience itself was so much fun! (Be prepared to change in the car park though.)

Following the rafting experience, we crossed the border into Italy to swim in a lake with an incredible mountain backdrop! For me, this was definitely a highlight of the trip.

Our guide, Jan, really made the experience. He was super knowledgeable and prepared drinks for us up the mountain and after rafting. He took LOTS of photos throughout the day, which allows you to just enjoy what is in front of you. He had also made a playlist for the car journey that comprised of songs from individuals’ home countries.

The ‘canyoning’ day was also lots of fun. The majority of the group were nervous about this activity but our guide, Jure, put us at ease. We were given the option of two canyons with different difficulty ratings; we opted for Jereka with the lower difficulty rating. There were two jumps: one was optional and the other could be assisted by Jure if you were too nervous to do it. The rest of the experience involved slides, ropes and very small jumps. Despite the lower difficulty rating, we all enjoyed it. (But again, be prepared to change in the car park or wait for the one outdoor changing area with curtain.)

Overall, I would definitely recommend this trip and would absolutely book through the local tour operator again. A special shout-out to Barbara the host for arranging extra accommodation nights for us and responding to our messages so promptly.

Great weekend away in Slovenia, such a beautiful country. Guides were great, had lots of local knowledge and felt safe whilst doing the activities. Can’t wait to see the photos!

The trip was an amazing experience. Jan was really knowledgeable about the local area and history and I learnt a lot from the hikes. Rafting and canyoning were so much fun!

The excursions felt very exclusive.. other groups seemed crowded or at least crowded together.. especially the rafting. Our guides seemed to be the best too and full of experience and knowledge with a suitable amount of adrenaline fuelled bonkers ness! But always felt in safe hands !!

.

This was an excellent trip. I would say we got more than our moneys worth, and the excursions were challenging and approachable for all levels of ability in the group.

This trip is so much fun!! My first MBA trip and I wouldn't hesitate booking again.

Saturday is a really full on day, about 12 hours with hiking in the morning and rafting in the afternoon. Our rafting guide was brilliant, super encouraging and nothing felt rushed.

Canyoning is exciting and the guides have levels for everything if you feel scared/uncomfortable. Although the hike up in the wetsuits is a sweaty one.

We had a fantastic group and made so many good memories. Just patiently awaiting the guides photos to be sent through!

Such a great trip, would strongly recommend to others! Really gave me the bug for rafting, and all the guides and instructors were top class. All the kit/gear was tip top, really impressed. Can't wait to get back to Slovenia!!

Everything was great! The guides were brilliant, knowledgeable and friendly. The hikes were stunning, rafting was so much fun and the canyoning was unbelievably fun... I instantly wanted to do it again as soon as I reached the end.

Prompt, great equipment, fantastic explanation of the history of the local area, very witty team.

Saturday was full-on with a 12-hour schedule. The guides were really good on both days. It was so much better than advertised.

The guides were super friendly and knowledgeable! Everything was extremely well coordinated and ran very smoothly!

Outstanding. Opened my eyes to what weekends are for. Sat here heading back home looking for my next adventure.

Very well organised, balanced, good humor with effective implementation.

Well organised and the guides/instructors were great.

Staffs were kind and helpful. The tour program was well-curated.

The activities and friendly atmosphere were great.

Quality of the hosts and the itinerary were amazing.

One of the best experiences I have done. The guides were all friendly and knowledgeable and the sheer range of activities was amazing, we packed so much into the 2 days.

Everything was amazing, the activities, the organisation, Hosts (JAKA - G.O.A.T), location, accommodation and the company made for the best weekend adventure ever. Have already recommended this trip to friends and family.
