They ignore my messages asking for a refund and when I contacted viatour they said they can’t refund until they hear from the tour company. Viator is a disgrace and I will never use them again”

“The SUP Tour on the Soča was simply awesome! From start to finish, everything was totally straightforward – from booking to returning the equipment. You immediately notice that there are real professionals at work here who know what they are doing without losing sight of the fun. The team was super cool, warm and absolutely helpful. Even at the welcome it was clear: Here, the focus is on people, not mass handling, but real passion for sport and nature. Everyone took their time, all questions were resolved relaxed and you just felt in good hands. The tour itself was pure deceleration.

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 139 reviews · 2.5 hours · from $94

Kayak the Soča River from Čezsoča 71 with a licensed English guide, gear included, beginner to advanced runs, plus free photos.

“The kayaking itself took around 1.5-2 hours I think. The water was beautiful (crystal-blue) and so clean that it was even drinkable. There were almost no other people on the river and the immediate area around it which allowed for a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. We always felt in safe hands with our guide. The only negative aspect was that even though we were told on the booking receipt that we‘d be contacted by our guide in advance regarding our pick-up, we didn‘t hear anything and also they didn‘t seem aware that we were supposed to be picked up. Luckily enough though there was still enough time for them to…”

10.Black Hole Kayaking

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 76 reviews · 8 hours (approx.) · from $241

Kayak in Slovenia's Black Hole mines from Bled. Small-group adventure with headlamps, mine cart descent, pickup, and all gear included.

“This was more than expected! The drive through Slovenia and Austria to reach the mine was so picturesque and made even better with both the information provided by our driver Sasha, and the stops we made en route on the mountain passes. The black hole kayaking was so much fun, being allowed to go off "on our own" to explore the passages in the dark. Be prepared for walking up and down some steps to reach the kayaking stage but the lunch afterwards was a nice treat and they catered for gluten-free guests excellently too.”
