Holiday Itinerary

Day 1 - Welcome evening, entertainment & games

On arrival, our friendly team will meet you at the airport with a big smile and open arms! When you’re ready to go we’ll transfer you from the airport to the beautiful town of Tolmin – your base for your adventure holidays in Slovenia. When you’ve unpacked and got yourself sorted, you will be treated to a welcome drink and an introductory meeting with your fellow travellers and guides! After your first Slovenian dinner, we all relax together and play some evening games! This is a brilliant opening to your Slovenia activities holiday and a great way to make new friends before you’ve even started the adventure!




Day 2 - White Water Rafting Day

We throw you right into the action from the first day of your Slovenian activity holiday! You will be experiencing the fantastic thrills and spills of white water rafting! Surrounded by gorgeous flourishing green hills and striking gorge landscapes, you will experience the exhilaration of white water rafting, mastering the ability whilst rafting along grade 2-3 rated stretches of the beautiful emerald green Soca River.




As always there will be chances for swimming, games and maybe a little relax time! Then we continue our journey, to hurtle down the gushing rivers! The spectacular experience of white water rafting the crystal clear waters of the Soca River is definitely something that will leave you with wonderful lasting memories during your family holiday in Slovenia.





Day 3 - Hiking Day

Today is considered slightly less lively than the white water rafting day, which makes a nice break before the rest of the adventure holiday activities. We will transfer you to the Polog Valley, where you will have the opportunity to explore some World War 1 bunkers before we set off on the hike! The walking is set at a nice calm pace, designed to showcase Slovenia’s stunning natural beauty. You will make your way through pristine forests, over beautiful springs of the Tolminka River as well as a nice break on a high alp meadow! Definitely a perfect family photo opportunity.




Day 4 - Your Free Day

Today is your free day, and what you get up to is completely your choice! You can simply relax at the hotel, enjoy exploring the near by countryside or if you feel like a day tour we can arrange a trip to the beautiful Lake Bled.

 




Day 5 - Kayak Day

Once you have mastered the basics in river kayaking, you will have the flexibility to discover almost any river in your kayak – and in the morning you’ll be doing just that! Our friendly instructors will set the pace to suit the group. In the afternoon, you get to put your new found kayaking abilities to the test on a Grade I to II stretch of river. The thrills and spills of the untouched river waters make kayaking in Slovenia an indispensable activity for any activity family holidays. It’s an unforgettable experience appropriate for the whole family and will leave you with a big grin on your faces!




Day 6 - Cycling Day

Today you will take a fantastic cycling tour through Slovenia’s eye-catching countryside. We start our journey off towards the valley of Idrijca, riding alongside the river and amongst beautiful lush meadows and pastures. We’re heading towards the picturesque little village of Slapob Idrijci roughly 12km away, where you will be able to rest and enjoy a swim in the soca! In the afternoon we will make our way back to the Hotel for a deserved and delicious dinner and another evening of enjoyment!




Day 7 - Free Day

Today is a free day designed for you to have a break from your busy week so far! You have many options on hand if you don’t fancy a peaceful day around the Hotel. Visit Lake Bled, Paraglide, trek the Tolminka Gorge, hire a mountain bike, swim in the river, sunbathe, play football, discover local cultural history & legends! There is so much for you to get mixed up with – ask Green World Holidays for more information!

 




Day 8 - Canyoning Day

Today is a totally different kind of adventure! You will start the day with a short stroll through the spectacular Prsjak gorge where you shall begin your canyoning adventure! You will jump, slip, slide and climb your way downstream coming face to face with surprising twists and turns around every turn!

This adventure is simply like nothing you’ve experienced before – you even have the incredible opportunity to abseil down a 27m waterfall!

 

Canyoning is an extraordinary activity, heightened by Slovenia’s natural beauty and challenging mountainous landscapes! Don’t worry if you’re not too sure about jumping or heights, talk to one of our Green World Holidays travel experts to find out more!

 




Day 9 - Free Day

Today is another free day for you to explore the local area. Discover your own activities with the nearby attractions or arrange a day trip activity with one of our friendly guides – please feel free to call us with any questions you may have in regards to your family adventure holiday in Slovenia!

 




Day 10 - Mini Raft

Today you will have the chance to take on the beautiful Soca River. We’ll be trying out the canoe style mini-rafts for a spectacular adventure along the river rapids!

The main difference between the mini-rafts and the bigger white water rafts is you are in complete control of the steering and paddling; which makes it a lot of fun and challenges you at the same time.

 

As this is the last day of full adventure, today is about having an amazing time. We’ll be adventuring down the river rapids, stopping for fun water games as usual, swimming as well as enjoying a very tasty BBQ to finish off the experience! It really comes down to days like this where you realise why Slovenia adventure holidays are so highly appreciated! We look forward to sharing these experiences with you and your family!

 




Day 11 - Departure Day

After your last Slovenian breakfast with us, you will be given enough time to do some last-minute shopping with a quick walk into town followed by the hardest activity you will face on the whole family adventure holiday; you will have to say goodbye to all the new friends you have made over the past week. However, at Green World Holidays we say 'until the next time! We never say goodbye!' We look forward to your next Slovenia active break!

Reviews

Magda Lwoka - Missing Slovenia

Our time on the soca waters and surrounding area was the escape we needed, and crave for as a family. We came into contact with some lovely families, who couldn't have been more compatible. Evening dinners were fantastic, all sharing a great laugh over fabulous food and great memories from the activity days. Not a dull moment. Very hard to pin point a very best bit, but watching the whole family complete the canyons was a great feeling. Already missing the green world gang! Thanks to all

Theresa Jameson - Didn't want to leave!

Slovenia was a dream destination, and the holiday was everything and more than we could have hoped for. We had mostly blue skies, but it's fair to say our guides were continually shining, their energies never waivered. The kids just loved them, and we certainly had some sad farewells. We hope to come back to tolmin, to share the adventure experience again with extended family. But for the time being we're gonna show off our glorious conquests on facebook. Please pass on my thanks to all responsible

Kunaal - Brilliant birthday trip

Just wanted to thank you for arranging our holiday Best European country I have been to and the rafting was just unbelievable. The people, the country, the weather was just about as perfect as it can get. The rafting was also superb and our guides/instructors were excellent. Great fun and very very professional. So all in all, 11/10 trip and def one birthday I won't forget!

Raj Mathur - Surprised myself with what I did!

We had a great holiday, many thanks for arranging and tailoring it to meet my girls and my needs. I had a few butterflies about doing some of the activities having never been in a raft, kayak, canyon but the team are very slick, polished, organised team of people. They managed to instill the confidence in all of us to happily take part in all the activities. I managed to surprise myself and do the 100ft drop off the waterfall. I think we'll come again and try a few more demanding things next time.

Gillies family - White water rafting was amazing!

All the activities were great thanks - WWR being our favourite. I didn't bash into one rock and was a professional at this. I think it was better than any other rides I've been on at Alton Towers! Photos are far too uncool to be sending around. Horey our guide explained my jump into a rockpool as a run up with a slight trip at the end  The group there are all very friendly and good at their jobs - professional, experienced and knowledgeable about the area with safety being their number one priority. Thanks for your help.

Moss Family - We loved it all!

The most exciting part of my holiday was the canyoning closely followed by the kayaking down the rapids. The kayaking was the more skillful activity. The hotel staff and the activity staff were local people. You are on the edge of a national park which is well looked after and very beautiful. It is still unspoilt. We had a great holiday and would recommend it to other families with children above 10, preferably 12, to get the best out of the holiday.

David Golding - Activities were brilliant

We all had a great holiday and really enjoyed our time away. The activities were fantastic and I would certainly recommend it to others. Many thanks again for arranging the holiday.
