EXCLUSIVE PRIVATE KAYAKING TOUR ON SOČA

Your Emerald Adventure, Tailored to You

Discover the hidden gems of the Soča Valley at your own pace.

Whether you are a total beginner or a family seeking a safe, magical journey, our private tours ensure you are the captain of your own experience.

⭐ MASTER THE RIVER AT YOUR OWN SPEED

Forget the stress of keeping up with a group. On a private tour, you don’t have to worry about looking silly or falling behind. Your guide is your personal mentor, helping you overcome your doubt and turning it into pure confidence on the water.

⭐ A JOURNEY INTO NARNIA

Step into movie history. Our beginner sections (Class I-II) from Čezsoča to Boka take you directly through the breathtaking landscapes used in The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian. Experience the same turquoise waters that captivated Hollywood, with the majestic Mt. Triglav as your backdrop.

⭐ SAFE, STABLE AND STRESS-FREE

The biggest fear for beginners is the trapped feeling of a closed kayak. That’s why we use open Sit-on-Top (SOT) kayaks. They are exceptionally stable and easy to maneuver. If you tip, you simply fall into the water and float back up—no complicated Eskimo rolls or technical escapes required!

Prefer a more traditional experience? We also provide classic closed kayaks for those ready to master authentic whitewater skills. Your guide will help you choose the perfect boat based on your confidence and goals.

⭐ TRULY ALL-INCLUSIVE

We believe your focus should be on the emerald waves, not on extra paperwork or hidden costs. Your Soča River permit (river tax) is already covered in the price, so you can skip the queues and the extra fees. To make the experience even better, your guide will capture every smile with a GoPro—and you get all the photos and videos for free! Just show up, paddle, and let us handle the rest.

⭐ PREMIUM COMFORT AT OUR BASE

We provide free private parking for our guests—no need to worry about street parking or fees. While we head to the riverside to suit up, our base is where the magic happens behind the scenes. Our large gear room is equipped with dryers, guaranteeing that your gear is always dry, even during rainy days.

HOW IT GOES

BEFORE YOU COME

EXPLORE OUR WEBSITE

And find perfect activities for you. You can choose between water, land and air sports. Kayaking will take about 4 hours of your time so you can add another activity on the same day. But, if your wish-list is longer you just email us all the activities you’d like to do and we’ll prepare a program for you. Just don’t plan more than 2 activities in one day.

LET US KNOW YOU’RE COMING

Booking a tour in advance is always a good idea. You don’t want to spoil your day with complications like “sorry, but we’re completely full today”. Besides it’s good that we know you’re coming. So we can organize our team, polish the boats, make sure our guides are shaved and gear room smells of fresh roses.

You can book your trip by

  • filling out a reservation form
  • sending us e-mail on hello@bovec-rafting-team.com
  • calling us on +386 41 338 308
  • sending SMS on +386 41 338 308

DON’T FORGET TO BRING

  • swimsuits (best if you wear them under your clothes)
  • extra pair of underwear because your swimsuits will be wet
  • ponytail elastic if your hair is long
  • towels

ON THE SOČA RIVER

GETTING ON THE SOČA RIVER

There’s a big parking in front of the Bovec Rafting Team sports center. There you will leave your car. You won’t need it until the end of your kayaking trip. We will take you to the starting point on the Soča river and then back to Bovec with our vans and buses.

STILL ON SHORE

You will change to neoprene suits. Don’t worry about the silly outfit. We all look the same on the river. You will leave your clothes and towels in our van or bus. Just before you start with crazy paddling the guide will also explain the basics of whitewater safety and show you what the paddle is for.

FUN ON THE RIVER

We always start kayak tours on calm and slow section of the river. First, your guide will teach you wet exit, so how to get out of the kayak if you flip. Then you will start learning your first strokes on flat water and later on faster current. The program is shaped not only to teach you how to paddle but also how to stay safe on the river. So besides different paddling techniques you will also learn communication signals on the river, the basics of white water rescuing and how to use safety rope and other gear.

WHEN OUT OF THE RIVER

The vans will already be there with your dry clothes. When you’re ready we’ll drive you back to our sports center.

AFTER YOUR KAYAKING TOUR

GET PHOTOS AND VIDEOS FROM YOUR RAFTING TOUR

Your guide will take his GoPro camera on the river. After the trip we will send you all the photos and videos from the trip for free. So, stop at our office and leave your e-mail. We will send you a link as soon as photos and videos are uploaded to a cloud gallery.

MAKE SURE YOU DIDN’T FORGET ANYTHING AT OUR SPORTS CENTER

You wouldn’t believe all the treasures we find around here at the end of the day. But if you do forget something just send us an e-mail. We’ll be happy to send it back to you.

TELL EVERYONE HOW AWESOME WE ARE

Facebook and Google reviews are much appreciated. Thank you!
