About the Activity

What to Expect

Explore the beauty of Slovenia during this tour in our sit-on-top kayaks on the Sava River. We will gather at our base in Radovljica, where you will meet our team, with whom you will spend an unforgettable day on the water. Our experienced guides will equip you comfortably and safely, providing you with neoprene shoes, a neoprene suit, a life jacket, a helmet, and an anorak if necessary. Our open kayaks are easy to handle and allow free movement, making them perfect for both beginners and those simply seeking an exciting kayaking experience.

The adventure begins at the confluence of the Sava Bohinjka and Sava Dolinka rivers. Here, our guides will teach you everything about safety on the river, proper paddling techniques, and the course of the descent. As we start paddling, you will find yourself navigating through calm areas to master the basic strokes and positions. Along the way, we will stop several times in beautiful pools where you can swim or jump into the water, adding a refreshing twist to your adventure.

Our journey concludes when we reach the finish line, where our vans will be waiting to take us back to our base. After changing into dry clothes, you can relive your adventure by viewing pictures of your day on the river. This open kayak descent is an ideal choice for those looking to enjoy fun rapids full of adrenaline without the need for extensive training. The Sava River offers thrilling opportunities for whitewater activities, with kayaking being a favorite among both beginners and experienced paddlers.

Recommendations for Family Kayaking on the Sava River

Great experience, me, with my two kids, 9 and 12, and our guide Alex was super patient, biut friendly and funny with the kids. We arrived late due to some issues and they even picked us up in a different location, GREAT Service. It was perfect for my kids to get to know kayaking and the river

We, a family with two children, booked a kayak tour with 3Rivers. Despite the hustle and bustle, we received a friendly welcome upon arrival. We were then outfitted with wetsuits, shoes, life jackets, and helmets, with everyone's needs catered for – from the 2-meter giant to the 1.40-meter diminutive. 😉 Before launching the kayaks, we received a very thorough safety and operation briefing. To warm up, we first got acquainted with the kayaks through some games and fun in a calm section of the Sava River (final score 1:1 between HSV and FCH 😅). Then the exhilarating ride began, and we hadn't had this much fun in ages. The rapids were exciting, fun, and, most importantly, manageable for everyone. There were also plenty of calm stretches for paddling and relaxing. Of course, a swimming break was included – not that I needed it after already taking four more or less involuntary dips beforehand. 😂 Finally, we were picked up at the end point and driven back to the base. The tour would have been great anyway, but our guide Alex took it to a whole new level. He was super cool, explained everything brilliantly, and really engaged my two boys. Thanks again, Alex, and best regards from Hamburg! P.S.: My better half just tapped me on the shoulder: I absolutely have to mention that there were no hidden costs and everything was very transparent and quick to book. Alex also took photos and videos of our tour, which we later received free of charge via WhatsApp. P.P.S.: 3Rivers is a young company that deserves all the support it can get.

We had a fantastic day on the Sava River kayaking with our family. Many thanks to Josh and your team. They were wonderful, explained everything very well, and were also very patient when our 8-year-old son got scared. We'll definitely be back!
