Great experience with rockvelo. Me and family had a lovely time cycling through the vineyards. The route was provided and recommended by Alex and it was the perfect fit for us.
Dear Toby and family, many thanks for your visit and kind review!! Hope to meet you again. Alex and RockVelo Team
We wanted to take a bike tour and saw Rockvelo online. We were warmly received despite arriving unannounced. Everything was arranged and we could make a super nice bike ride! The bikes were super nice and the route was fantastic! Upon returning we got grapes and we could sit quietly. Top experience!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're absolutely delighted to hear you had such a top experience with us. It was our pleasure to welcome you, even on a spontaneous visit! I'm so glad we could get everything arranged for you and that you found the bikes great and the route fantastic. It means a lot that you enjoyed the ride and the chance to relax with some fresh grapes afterward. We hope to see you again for another adventure soon! Best, Alex
Four viking ladies from Norway were seeking adventure on a cloudy day, we found Rockvelo el-bikes and the coolest guide Timothey. Through pictures valleys and fertile vineyards we rode the Vipava-Tour solid as a rock. Strong legs, laughter, speed and a cappuccino on the top! To finish off we had some unique local wine, it made our pallets sing a way. Four happy women reports; What a lovely lovely day!
Thank you for this fantastic review! We are delighted to hear that our guide, Timotej, was the "coolest" and that he helped you have a truly lovely day. It sounds like you had the perfect adventure—complete with strong legs, laughter, speed, and delicious local wine. Your feedback truly made our day as well! We hope to see you and your fellow Viking warriors back at RockVelo for another adventure soon. Warmly, Alex
Although initially a little hard to find once we were there Alex ( the owner) welcomed us really nicely. I gave him a WhatsApp the night before ( after office hours) and he replied and sorted everything. Set up was easy and the bikes are great. The route was easy to follow and stunning. Only word of caution is we did 2.5 hours and it felt enough. Was glad to get back and get in some air con!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review of E-bike Vipava River Tour! I'm truly delighted you had such a great experience. I appreciate your note on finding us and I'm glad my WhatsApp response sorted everything out for you. It's fantastic to hear you found the bikes great and the route stunning. It's completely understandable that 2.5 hours felt like a good ride before enjoying some AC :) We're so happy you chose RockVelo, and I hope to welcome you back again in the future. Best, Alex
My wife and I enjoyed a fantastic eBike tour of the Vipava Valley with Alex as our guide. Alex was great at keeping in touch, tailored the route to suit our requirements, and helped my wife overcome her initial lack of confidence (by the end she was powering off into the distance!). We found Alex to be thoroughly engaging, with a great sense of humour. He is a fount of knowledge about the area and Slovenian culture. Despite being a very experienced cyclist he was very happy to go at a pace suitable for beginners like us. We were lucky enough to enjoy perfect weather, made frequent stops to discuss points of interest along the route, and enjoyed some wonderful locally made ice cream! The tour finished with lunch in a delightful historic village. We couldn't have wished for better hospitality, and would thoroughly recommend RockVelo to anyone who wants to get out for an exciting and educatonal ride in the countryside whilst on holiday. Thanks, Alex!
Dear Simon, it`s been an absolute pleasure to host you here in the Vipava valley! I`m happy that I was able to provide you with everything that you needed and I have learned a lot about nature from you too (thanks!!). Hope to see you again in Slovenia. Best, Alex
What a great way to discover the beautiful country of Slovenië, by cyclisch through the vinyards, having a great lunch and perfect service by Alex.
Many thanks for your reviews. This is us - we enjoy our little part of Slovenia and cycling :) Hope to see you again! Best, Alex
The bikes were very good and nice that you also get a route! We had children aged 1 and 4 and they had a seat and a for them. Nice bike ride all day.
Many thanks for your kind review, It`s been a pleasure to help you out with this family cycling trip :) Best, Alex
Fantastic route with a nice snack in between. Route stops in a small village at the top of the mountain, where you can eat locally.
Many thanks for your review! We`re glad you enjoyed the landscape and cycling here. Hopefully again soon! Best, Alex
My husband, son, and I did RockVelo's E-bike Vipava River Tour and loved it. We're daily cyclists at home and really enjoyed exploring this corner of Slovenia by bike. Alex was easy to connect with and coordinate the tour and our guide, Rok, was excellent. The valley is beautiful and we'd definitely recommend exploring it with Rockvelo!
Many thanks for visiting us with your family and joining our guide Rok for this e-biking adventure :) Really happy you all enjoyed it, it was a great pleasure to have you here in the Vipava valley! Best, Alex
Excellent tour, the bikes were in great condition, the guides were great and very supportive to us with less endurance.
Many thanks for your kind review! We enjoyed riding with your group very much and thanks to E-bikes, you could all enjoy the tour! Hope to see you again soon. Best, Alex
