It was a fun experience! We booked through our camping and they forgot to pick us up but after 20 min they still came haha, after that everything was perfect!
Thank you for your review! :) We're so glad to hear you had a fun experience and that everything went perfectly once the adventure got underway :). We're sorry about the delay with the pick-up. We didn't forget you—the previous group returned a little later than expected, which unfortunately delayed our pick-up schedule. Thank you for your patience and understanding, and we're happy it didn't take away from your overall experience :). We hope to welcome you back for another adventure in the future! Best regards, Špela Aktivni planet team
Great rafting trip through incredible scenery. Our guide was brilliant, informative and fun. The trip had a great balance of thrills and relaxed cruising to enjoy the picturesque river.
Thank you for your lovely review! We're so glad you enjoyed the perfect mix of exciting rapids and relaxing moments surrounded by the beautiful scenery. It's wonderful to hear that your guide helped make the experience both fun and memorable. We'd love to welcome you back in the future—perhaps to try one of our other outdoor adventures and explore even more of the Soča Valley :). Best regards, Špela Aktivni planet team
Nice ride with Gabi as captain

Unforgettable experience to share with family. The surroundings are spectacular. We were with the guide Saulo, who was super professional and kind. He also communicated in Spanish, which made the activity easier for us. Without a doubt, we would do it again.
Muchas gracias por compartir vuestra experiencia! Nos alegra muchísimo saber que disfrutasteis de esta aventura en familia y que el entorno os pareció tan espectacular. Saulo estará encantado de saber que su profesionalidad, amabilidad y la posibilidad de comunicarse en español hicieron que la actividad fuera aún más cómoda y agradable para vosotros. Ha sido un placer teneros con nosotros. Esperamos volver a veros muy pronto para otra aventura :) Špela, Aktivni planet

I was really disappointed with our rafting experience. When we arrived, we were put in a raft with a family who had two young children. As a result, our trip was much tamer than the other groups on the river, and it felt like we missed out on the experience we had paid for. Unfortunately, the children repeatedly hit me with their paddles. I was struck on the head twice and also had my hand hit, which made the trip uncomfortable and took away from what should have been an enjoyable activity. On top of that, our raft also had a trainee instructor, which seemed to add to the lack of organisation and overall chaos. Afterwards, we spoke to the staff in the office to explain what had happened. Rather than acknowledging our concerns or apologising, we were simply told, "That's the way it is." There was no empathy or attempt to make things right, which left us feeling like they didn't care about our experience once they had our money. I understand that rafting groups sometimes need to be mixed, but if you're pairing adults with families and young children, expectations should be managed beforehand, or there should be an option to be grouped with people looking for a similar level of adventure. There are plenty of companies offering white-water rafting, and based on both the experience itself and the dismissive attitude afterwards, I wouldn't choose this one again
Dear Fahmida, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are genuinely sorry that your experience did not meet your expectations. We would, however, like to clarify a few points. During the trip, when our guides noticed that the children were struggling with the paddles and accidentally hitting others, they immediately took the paddles away from the children. The rest of the rafting trip continued without them paddling to ensure everyone's comfort. We understand that not everyone enjoys sharing a raft with families and young children. Children are very welcome on our trips, and we do our best to create a fun experience for everyone—solo travellers, couples, groups of friends, and families alike. Naturally, young children cannot handle a paddle with the same coordination as adults. For guests who prefer not to share a raft with others, we also offer private rafting trips, which guarantee a separate raft and trip that is totally made as they want. We would also like to clarify what happened in our office afterwards. When you explained the situation, our first response was to sincerely apologise. We then immediately called both your guide and our manager so we could fully understand what had happened before responding further. Unfortunately, we were not given the opportunity to explain what we had learned or discuss possible solutions. We had intended to offer either a partial refund or a discount on canyoning, as we understood you were looking for a more adventurous experience and canyoning would fit better. However, before we could do so, the conversation was interrupted by your husband, and you left the office. Shortly afterwards, we also sent you a WhatsApp message in an attempt to continue the conversation and find a solution, but unfortunately, we did not receive a reply. It felt as though you were not interested in resolving the issue with us before deciding to leave a negative review. At our company, we genuinely care about our guests' experiences and always try to find a fair solution when something doesn't go as expected. Had you mentioned before or even during the trip that you were uncomfortable sharing a raft with children, we would have happily rearranged the groups. This would have made the experience more enjoyable not only for you but also for the family sharing the raft. We are sorry that we were unable to resolve this together and wish you all the best in your future adventures. Best regards, Špela Aktivni planet team
It was a really great experience with great guides
Vielen Dank für Ihre tolle Rückmeldung! Es freut uns sehr, dass Sie ein so schönes Erlebnis hatten und mit unseren Betreuern zufrieden waren. Ihr Lob geben wir gerne an das gesamte Team weiter. Aktivni planet team
Jaka and Eli were awesome raft guides. Both super fun, taught well before getting started, and had good humor. Glad my wife and I did this during our full day. Highlight of the day!
Hi,Thank you so much for your kind review! It's great to know their instruction and sense of humor helped set the tone for an enjoyable day on the river. We're especially happy it was a highlight of your trip! Nina,Aktivni planet
We were absolute beginners and a little unsure. The boat guides explained how to put on the protective gear very well in advance, despite language barriers....not everyone in the group could speak English. In my view, the tour was suitable for beginners. We experienced a special thrill....a thunderstorm with gale-force winds, lightning and thunder, rain. The boat guides acted prudently. We rowed to the shore, and the overturned boats became protective shelters for us. After the rain subsided, the tour continued. An experience that will remain in our memories as the highlight of our trip.
Vielen herzlichen Dank für Ihre wunderbare Bewertung! Es freut uns sehr, dass Sie sich als Anfänger bei uns gut aufgehoben gefühlt haben. Die Sicherheit unserer Gäste hat für uns immer höchste Priorität, daher freut es uns besonders, dass Sie das besonnene Handeln unserer Guides während des Gewitters so positiv erlebt haben. Dass dieses außergewöhnliche Erlebnis zu einem Highlight Ihrer Reise geworden ist, bedeutet uns sehr viel. Wir würden uns freuen, Sie bei einem nächsten Abenteuer wieder bei uns begrüßen zu dürfen!Nina,Aktivni planet
