Soča Valley Day Tours

Soča Valley is for sure one of the most beautiful hiking destinations in Europe. The reasons are the great Julian Alps, Triglav National Park and the emerald beauty Soča river. We will walk you to the Soča valley river beds overlooking Julian Alps. Explore the most amazing secret spots of the Soča Valley with us.

The Soča Valley boasts the tallest and mightiest peaks of the Julian Alps. Marked trails lead from the valley to wild and untamed corners high in the mountains, including Triglav (2864 m), Slovenia’s highest mountain.

There are many circular and themed trails, which acquaint visitors with the heritage of these places. It is possible to combine sightseeing with a walking or a hiking tour. It is also possible to go for a ramble in the woods and gorges, and there are plenty of footpaths leading to mountain villages above the valleys.

We’ll take you around the alpine Trenta Valley or to the beautiful Kobarid region. There are many paths and stories along the way. Such as Zadnja Trenta valley or Bavšica valley, the Great and small gorge of Soča river, typical Trenta houses, beautiful Lepena valley with Šunik waterfall, waterfalls Boka & Virje & Strmec village overlooking the mighty Loška wall etc.

WHAT DO YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE THE TRIP?

We arranged an extensive tour that showed us parts of Slovenia we would never have discovered ourselves. Our tour guide Miha was an amazing driver and very knowledgeable with the history of the areas we visited. Our highlights were Trenta valley with Soca gorge, the Italian WW1 trenches and Tolmin gorge. We also really enjoyed the Goriska brda wine tasting experience. An experience we will never forget thanks to Miha.

Really enjoyed the Soca valley guide tour with Mateja, she kept us organised and gave us good information about each stop. Visited many stunning places that it was not easy to get to by public transport in a short trip. Activities felt safe and well organised - I’d never tried rafting before and it was a lot of fun. Really worth booking.

Great tour through the Triglav National Park with a highlight being rafting on the Soca. Great guide Miha with perfect English, very polite and friendly. You always feel safe and well looked after. Always happy to do it again, worth the money for anyone who doesn't have their own car.

I had a wonderful day with Miha on the Soca valley guided tour. So many beautiful views around the Triglav National Park and the rafting was so much fun! I booked this adventure as a solo traveler but made friends with everyone fast and definitely recommend for solo travelers, couples and small groups.

Our group of 3 had an amazing tour with Miha. We saw all the major highlights of the area and Miha took amazing photos of our group! Two of us had never ridden an e-bike and Miha did a great job ensuring we felt comfortable on the bikes and tailored the path to our level. We were delighted with how far we rode and the places we visited. 10 out 10 would do it again!!

My girlfriend and I took a guided tour of the Julian Alps, we were in Bled, but they came to pick us up and we did this beautiful tour. We saw amazing waterfalls, large lakes, some incredible mountain scenery and finally the amazing Soca River with its gorge. This incredible nature is worth seeing.

We could not have been happier with our tour with Mateja! We only had one day in the Soča valley and she planned a tour to make sure we saw as much as possible. We had lunch in a charming town, went to a natural wine shop, and had the most magical day exploring. We learned so much from Mateja, and she went above and beyond by sharing photos and tips for the rest of our trip after the tour as well. We wish we had more time here and would recommend Discover Soča to anyone looking for the best experience with a local guide. THANK YOU!

Thank you Discover Soĉa Tours & Transfers for organising such an unforgettable experience! From the first email to the final goodbye, I felt well supported and looked after by Mateja and Miha.As a young female solo traveller, travelling in off season, it would have been impossible to see everything I wanted using public transport. Thankfully, Mateja and Miha were able to adapt to my budget and make my dreams a reality!My objective was to see the highlights of the Soĉa Valley, and we did just that (and more!). From visiting incredible natural gems to trying local Slovenian cuisine, together, we certainly achieved a lot across a 3 day transfer and tour itinerary.Having a knowledgeable and friendly guide like Mateja really made the whole experience even more amazing. You can tell she is very passionate about her country, its traditions and its people, so I learnt so much more than I could have than by doing it on my own (plus, it is always nice to have someone there to take pictures of you!).If you are wanting to experience the Soĉa Valley to its fullest potential, Discover Soĉa Tours & Transfers is the perfect fit for you. Save the stress of renting a car and instead, sit back and enjoy being looked after.
