 Day 1
 

Meet & Greet on arrival:

Our friendly guides will meet you on arrival and transfer you to our base in Slovenia. The small town of Tolmin nestled in the Soca Valley overlooked by the stunning Julian Alps. After dinner your guide will meet you again and welcome you by running through the itinerary and playing some funny games.

                                               

 Day 2
White water rafting
 
 

White Water Rafting

Today your guide will take you White Water rafting. This is a great activity to introduce you firstly to the crystal clear waters of the Soca river and secondly to bring you together as you negotiate down grade 2 - 4 stretches of white water. Certainly a fun way to kick start your adventure holiday.

 Day 3
Mountain Biking  

Mountain Biking

Today we will take you on a mountain biking day. The cycling is moderate so nothing too challenging but the views are simply divine. Today you will ride through the scenic valleys of Nadiza or Idrijca, through pretty pastures & meadows and idyllic Slovene villages. You will also have chance to cool down and refresh with a swim in the emerald water of the Soca river.


 Day 4
Kayak
 
 

River Kayaking

Kayaking is such a good way to feel the freedom of  travelling down the river. Today we will teach you the basics in the morning and in the afternoon travel down a stretch of grade 1 and 2 together.

 

*DOUBLE VALUE* - How are we different?

'Most introductions to kayaking start & end on calm waters - where clients get to grip with the basics of movement and safety. Well with our itinerary, we start the day earlier and end later, allowing a full morning of tuition & fun. This means by the afternoon, we can take our guests to the river rapids, putting their new skills to the test. It's an extremely enjoyable day & most of all - you feel proud of your achievements! This activity can't be missed & one of my personal favourites!'

Russell Smith - Activities co-ordinator


 Day 5
Walking Adventure  

Your free day

We appreciate that on your family active holiday you may want time just to relax or make your own personal explorations so day 5 is your free day. You can simply relax by the hotel swimming pool, take a stroll or we can even arrange a day trip to Lake Bled. Please feel free to contact our experienced activity holiday experts for advice: 0845 299 7807


 Day 6
Mini Rafting
 
 

Mini Rafting

Mini rafting is tremendous fun. Today you will negotiate the emerald waters and rapids as well as having time for swimming, water games and a well earned barbeque.


 Day 7
Canyoning
 
 

Canyoning time

Canyoning is likely to be one of your highlights during your family adventure holiday. After a short hike you will begin descending down various naturally made chutes and slides. The scenery is magical and the adventure concludes with a controlled descent down a 27m waterfall. Something you will surely remember and be proud to tell your friends and family about for a long time to come.


 Day 8

 
 

Departure for a new country & a new adventure

After a late breakfast, we must make our farewells and take to the road once more. The adventure now continues to another spectacular country. CROATIA

High Rope adventure:

 

You're free in the morning to explore or relax at the hotel. Either way, the Croatia morning will be another reason to wakeup with a super smile.

 

In the afternoon it is time to test your nerves at Umag’s highest rope park. The park offers 4 levels of difficulty each time getting higher and higher. There are many types of obstacles and techniques - a great challenge for all ages. It's one of those perfect family days, where more than often, the mum & dad's are screaming just as loud as the kids (in a good way!!!)

 

Will you complete the full tree top course? Follow us and find out!

 Day 11
Croatia adventure holiday








 

Mountain Biking in Croatia:

After a day on the water it is nice to have a day on land so today we will organize a mountain biking day for the family. Istria’s gorgeous countryside offers well preserved nature trails and fascinating old town’s like Momjan, Grožnjan or Motovun, which represent the pearls of medieval architecture.

 Day 12
Croatia adventure holiday
 
 

Free day:

You can simply relax or make personal explorations of the surrounding area or we can even help arrange car hire for the day. We are here to make your family adventure holiday perfect, please just call our team to discuss options.


 Day 13
Croatia adventure holiday
Istria active
 
 

Special Sea day:

 

Today we will arrange a boat trip into the blue of the Adriatic. This is a great way to get a feel for Croatia’s lovely coastline.

This is an incredible day for both mums & dads and kids in tow. We'll relax on the calm waters, play games and snorkel. Don't forget your sun cream & plenty of water to drink.

 

Of all the days away with us, this will be the most tranquil, and yet one of the most satisfying. While the kids are jumping into the aquatic waters, its time to catch up on some sun worshipping or that airport novel.

Another amazing highlight, will be the onboard fresh 'fish' picnic lunch!





 Day 14

Croatia adventure holiday
 

Rock Climbing:

Our Croatia adventure holiday offers the perfect conditions for an unforgettable rock climbing day. Based in a stunning area by a picturesque waterfall and a turquoise lake, our instructors await to show you the ropes (so to speak).

Our safety guides are truly fantastic and it really does not matter if you are a complete novice or an experienced climber, there is something here for all the family & abilities. As part of this fabulous day we also arrange a super BBQ.

Note: At 20.00 we will arrange a farewell meal in a typical Istrian restaurant in Novigrad. This is an ideal time to reminisce about your family adventure holiday and discuss your highlights.

Note: BBQ & fair well dinner included.

 Day 15

 
 

Departure day (too soon)

Sadly it is time to say goodbye. All we ask on our holidays is that you bring with you a smile but on this day we understand that is likely to be the only day you will not be smiling. We will transfer you to your airport and make our sad goodbyes to our new friends; but remember you are always welcome back!
