  • 4Amazing rafting experience, watch out for extra fee

    Great trip! River is probably the most beautiful river I've ever rafted. I paid about $90 per person when I pre-registered, so it wasn't a great experience to be suprised by additional last minute charges when I arrived. Basically, it seems they are running the hotel "resort fee" trick. I think they said it was some kind of tax but they could have done everything up front regardless. Please charge the full price up front so we know what to expect.

  • 5Brilliant, well-organised family fun!

    Fantastic family trip! Our guide Harry was brilliant - very experienced and great with all ages - we were two adults, three children 13, 11 and 7.. We felt very safe and well looked after. Clear instructions and nice bits of additional fun when we stopped with the other groups to slide down our upturned rafts! Really glad we booked it. All equipment provided, you just need a swimming costume. Parking just up the road. And the town nearby looked like it had nice cafes / supermarket etc.

  • 5Knowledgeable guide, superb setting, joyous experience.

    Superb experience for all of us. Very competent and knowledgeable guide who knew the river well. All safety equipment was of a high standard and well maintained. As a result we all felt very safe. We were taken down a range of challenging and calmer sections (where we could swim and jump from higher edges). Everyone was buzzing at the end.

  • 5Family rafting - a great first experience

    A fantastic experience for our family - a combination of excitement in the rapids sections and serene tranquility on the calm sections. The organisation and equipment was perfect, and the location on the Soca river is spectacular. Our guide made the experience fun whilst also making sure we were safe - I would highly recommend the family rafting experience for anyone who hasn't tried it before.

  • 5Best group activity in the Soca Valley

    Awesome experience, with very friendly guides. Including Soca-river jumps from a rock! A Must-do when in the area! Transfer to and from the starting location included as well as the fee for activities aroud the Soca river. (We found other groups offering similar tours, but less clear on what tou actually pay: thumbs up for Soca Splash!) We got called way before the start of the activity to male sure we arrive on time: All in all a great experience we will not forget!

About Bovec

Bovec is a mountain village in Slovenia's Soča Valley, in the Julian Alps, with an emerald river, waterfalls, rafting and a ski area on Mount Kanin.

Bovec lies in a wide basin in the Julian Alps at the head of the Soča Valley, surrounded by limestone peaks near the Italian border and the edge of Triglav National Park. The Soča river, clear and emerald green, flows down from the mountains through gorges, and the valley saw fierce fighting on the Isonzo front in the First World War. Old war trenches, chapels and cemeteries still mark the slopes.

Top-ranked sights in Bovec: Soca Valley, Boka Waterfall, Soča River (Isonzo River).
