This Triglav National Park and Soča Valley tour is a full day in the Julian Alps, with round-trip transport from Bled or Ljubljana in an air-conditioned minivan. It suits nature lovers and anyone who wants to see the mountains without driving narrow alpine roads. You see waterfalls, emerald rivers, a glacier lake across the Italian border and the highest mountain pass in Slovenia, all in one loop.
Past travelers often mention guides who know the area well and share its history, legends and local stories along the way. Many also say the small vehicle makes the day feel personal, and that the route covers places that are hard to reach by public transport.

This tour was so much fun! With a group of 8 people (which is the maximum amount) we went to see so many beautiful views and even saw a bit of Italy. Our guide had many interesting things to say during the ride and we got to do carpool karaoke as well. Met the best people, had the best swim & little hikes and took so many pictures my storage was full. 🫶
Our day with Metka was wonderful with a well organised and fun day looking at the natural beauty in Slovenia. As well as the Soca valley, there were stops that we would not have known about or visited without the activity. We added the zipline in Bovec which was also good fun. Would highly recommend.
Really good trip. Peter was a fantastic guide. Informative inclusive and happy to share his knowledge. He made the trip so much fun while still looking after us all. The waterfalls & Gorge were amazing . Such beautiful scenery even on a rainy day. Gorgeous ice cream in Boca. A fantastic day out
Yes. Most stops are on mountain roads with little or no public transport, and the Vršič Pass road is narrow with many hairpin bends. The tour covers the whole loop in one day without you having to drive or plan connections.
Yes, as an extra. Rafting and ziplining are not included, but you can use the free time in Bovec for them. Book the activity separately and tell your guide in advance so the timing works.
There are no regular border checks between Slovenia and Italy, since both are in the Schengen area. Still, carry your passport or national ID card, as you should whenever you cross a border.
The tour needs good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.
You can cancel up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. If you cancel later, the amount you paid is not refunded, and changes within 24 hours of the start are not accepted.
