Experience the soča valley

  Where can I start..what do I say ...how can I describe the sublime experience of the Soca and Matic? Well here goes....We are a family of four and joined Matic... read more at Kayak Soca for a family kayak and canyoning adventure. I also did an advanced kayak white water trip.

The River Soca is just beautiful, turquoise crystal clear water, stunning surrounding landscape - being on there is almost a spiritual experience. Matic was fantastic - really experienced, skilled, knowledgable and a great teacher. It was also good that he takes small groups so you get a better overall experience than some of the other larger groups I saw on the water...

If you're in the Soca valley Matic and Kayak Soca are a must do!

  The three of us tried kayaking for the first time and it was a blast! We met with Matic right at Soca River and we startet with instructions and warm... read more up. It was the perfect mixture of fun on the water and getting to know the sport due to helpful tips of the two guides during challenges and practicing of the basic handling of the equipment. We were a group of eight and had two experienced guides with us. We felt safe all the time and were able to enjoy the beautiful landscape and crisp water freely without any stress. Definitely the highlight of our trip to slovenia! Thanks to the spontaneous and flexible guide we were able to do canyoning the next morning, which was also an unforgettable experience. We went really early, so it was just the three of us with Matic alone. There were waterfalls to slide down and even some high jumps, if one liked to get some extra kick of adrenalin. The equipment is in excellent condition and so the cold water was never an issues with the neoprene he provided for all of us. Matic is a delightful person to spend a day with and he was encouraging, funny and toke great pleasure from guiding us on both days. His fascination for the water and Soca Valley is infectious. We'll definitely come back next time we're traveling through slovenia. All in all it was well organized and we would highly recommend doing the outdoor adventures in the area with Matic. It was very friendly and personal and not touristy at all. There wasn't a single minute we felt hurried and so it tribute very well to our holiday feeling over all. If you choose to start early you even have the rest of the day left for even more interesting trips this beautiful valley provides.

  Good points: straight forward to arrange, good quality kit.

Less good points: didn’t actually traverse that far down the river (a lot of time was spent hanging around)... read more and we’re only on the water less than 2hrs (advertised 2.5hrs), one guide to 7 meant a lot of time was spent hanging around while people were being “retrieved” after capsizing, didn’t see any “secret spots”, felt like it was just another tour being churned out, the photos were very poor quality so we don’t have any momento of the occasion, no swimming in emerald pools and no snack/rest on the shore. It didn’t really deliver on what was advertised.

  Our little family of three had no prior experience with kayaking rapids, but kayaking the Soca River was the one thing our 16yo son said he needed to do on... read more our trip to Slovenia. Matic was awesome - thorough, patient, and lighthearted, and even coached...More

  We had two great days (3h per day) kayaking with Matic. We can absolutely recommend him as an instructor. Matic is really professional, likable and genuine on the river. It... read more was fun, instructive and suited to our individual needs. We are already hooked and want...More
