Experience the soča valley

  This was an incredible experience- I feel so lucky to have done this! While I’ve kayaked a lot, it was always on calmer waters. Still, it was a course that... read more beginners could handle. For our trip, there were two of us and Matic who even in planning this was so thoughtful. He provided tips for places to see from our drive up from Bled in advance and gave us great advice for what to do and eat in Bovec!

Matic arrived and we got suited up (wetsuits, helmets, life jackets) and before even getting in he had us warm up and stretch! We then got in our kayaks and he taught us proper technique and provided helpful feedback. He had such a calm and joyous presence! And watching other groups take off without such preparation made me especially grateful to be with Matic!

Once in the river, he made it fun. You go over and through some rapids for sure, and it is is doable! I may have tipped over twice but that was on me and Matic always made sure I was safe and gave incredibly clear instruction. And all with zero - I mean zero - judgement or exasperation. Because he was calm and collected, so was I. I definitely faced one of my fears and was grateful for someone with his demeanor and expertise. Also, while I tipped, I was the only one to do so!

Matic also knows the river and valley so well. His passion and expertise was apparent! I highly recommend this trip if you’re considering it! It was a wonderful experience with a very local guide - no frills, no rush, just perfect!

  The instructor was amazing , he had so much patience with us as we were total begginers, very intertaining and funny . During the session he showed us a lot... read more of landmarks and it was very educational and those little stops were a great timed little rest that was followed by an adrenaline rush as we went down the next rapids. It was a complete package , from basics , safety to testing how much we can endure and it was fun the whole time. We felt safe and had a great time , plus he towed my friend that never believed that she could kayak such a river until she felt secure and went on her own. An amazing experience, beautiful nature,the colour of the river was a heavenly torquise and most importantly the best instructor. Haven't had such fun in a long time. I would recommend to all!

  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!
