Kayaking in Bled
Overview
Find your flow and become your own master of the rapids! Two hours of kayaking on Sava river might not be enough to make you a pro, but you will surely learn the basics while enjoying the beautiful scenery around you. A guide will be there to make sure you don't overhydrate and drift too far away. First-time paddlers will learn the basic techniques before we descend down the river. A local river is a perfect place for beginners as well as intermediate kayakers.

What To Expect
We will pick you at your accommodation in Bled and neighbouring villages. The driver will take you to the starting location (around 10-15 minute drive from Bled).
After being welcomed by the team members, who will explain to you the gear-up procedure. All the necessary kayaking equipment like life jackets, wetsuits, water shoes, helmets, paddles and kayaks will be provided. English speaking and fully licensed white water river rafting guide/white water rescue technician will lead the tour down the beautiful Sava River and will be there to ensure your safety.
You'll be paddling through stunning scenery and down many fun rapids. About 3/4 of the way, there will be a stop and if you feel like it you'll be allowed to jump from a small cliff, under the supervision of your guide. After that there'll be an easier section of the river where you will gentilly float trough a scenic gorge to the finish where the vans will be awaiting your arrival.
After the tour you will be transported back to your accommodation.
