WHAT PEOPLE SAY

Our experience with Blazka and Diego was amazing! They both guided us perfectly through the river and canyon, with great expertise. They were super friendly and although I'm afraid of heights, I felt really comfortable and secured. Must do when visiting Bovec! Thanks for everything 😊 Greetings from Laura and Gianni 👋

Three days of water adventure in Bovec with the excellent @ultimatealps. (Rafting, Canyoning and Kayaking) Thanks to our experienced, professional and friendly owners/guides Blažka and Diego it was a trip to remember, relaxed and personal. So if this is where you are heading then this is a 100% recommendation. It was professional and friendly, and nothing like those impersonally big group trips you try to avoid. This was the Soca valley at its best. Thanks 🙏
