This activity was so enjoyable. I went with my 16 and 12 year old sons who loved every minute of it! Hannah our guide was simply wonderful. She explained everything so well and made everything fun and enjoyable whilst making us all feel safe. Such an amazing guide! She didn’t stop smiling which was infectious. The views along the way are breath taking!
We had a fantastic rafting trip. Just the right combination of thrills and fun with peaceful enjoyment of the stunning scenery.
We had a great whitewater rafting experience and really enjoyed ourselves. It was a smooth transfer process to and from the rafting destinations, free parking at the base and great to have the river permit already looked after, included in the ticket price. We also loved our guide Matteo and he made it an unforgettable experience, we felt safe the whole time and had lots of fun.
Visited Soca river and Slovenia for the first time on a father(40-ish)-son(twelve-ish) "summer 2026 road trip" and let me tell you -it was a blast! Soca river is (even with low water level) exciting and varied in profile. There was time for soaking, sliding (penguin style) from the secured elevated raft and for paddling with guide shouting "lively now! Forward!" or "backwards!" or "well that rock came out of nowhere" :) Rebecca as our guide did a great job and can side gig as a stand-up comedian. Everything you need to now about how to behave, what to expect, how to react and all other bits and ends about the raft -she teaches you in a orderly, professional and surprisingly light-hearted fashion. She can do no wrong and if you disagree -well you probably rafted with Matteo ;) Personal equipment is well fitted, looks new enough, proper sizes are provided even for a tall human scarecrow as myself. Gathering point is well signed and hard to miss, free parking. Reception desk clerk is helpful, well mannered and speaks perfect english. They provide free of charge photos (stationary ) and videos (go pro on guides helmet). All and all 10/10 and definitely would recommend Rebecca as a guide and Nature's Ways establishment as a whole. Enchanted by the experience I already booked canyoning with them and will see how that will go. Best regards, Dad from the front left :)
It was our first time rafting, and our family enjoyed every minute. Our guide, Rebekah, was knowledgeable, patient, and so much fun. In addition to rafting, we had a few opportunities to jump into the calmer waters, and our son took full advantage of jumping off the rock. We also were able to see some trout in the river. It was an amazing experience.
We enjoyed it wery much. Our gide Hana was fantasic. We had a lot of fun. We also dived, slided and swum. The 1,5 hour on river passed very guickly.
We loved this so much. The guides were knowledgeable and friendly. As a person hesitant in the water, I felt very safe and had so much fun. The experience of being in the cold water with the wet suit on was amazing. The river itself is unbelievably beautiful and we really enjoyed this experience of it.
A fantastic experience for the whole family (ages 57, 56, 26, and 21). Even my wife, who was previously apprehensive, thoroughly enjoyed it! Our guide, Mateo, did an excellent job, instilling confidence and ensuring we had a very fun time, all surrounded by the incredible natural beauty of the Soča River.
One of the best organised tours in my life. Professional reception, very kind and fun guide. The rafting was awesome and the crew was very helpful. I asked for a helmet with a gopro attachment and they were kind to provide. The whole event went really smooth. I do not want to spoil the experience but there were a lot of extra fun activities on the route. I highly recommend this operator especially our guide Teo.
Everything was perfect from the beginning. The staff was friendly and accommodating even though we were a good twenty minutes late. Our guide Tomi was excellent and provided us with an unforgettable experience on Soča. We will definitely come back again.
