Slovenia Cycling Holidays

We have just returned from a wonderful family holiday in Slovenia (two adults and a 13 year old) and I can highly recommend Slovenia Cycling Holidays for their excellent service and good value for money.Nejc was very helpful from the start, replying quickly and creating our tailormade itinerary. We received great pre-trip information and files in the right format to use with our Garmin devices. The trip itself was perfect, cycling on a mix of offroad trails and quiet roads. The hotels were well chosen with comfortable, spacious rooms and welcoming and helpful staff who stored the bikes overnight.The e-bikes themselves were brand new top-of-the range and ideal for the hilly terrain - meaning we were able to see more of the countryside and get off the beaten track.Nejc continued to be on hand for any questions (messaging via WhatsApp). We were travelling in April and generally had lovely weather but on our last day, we had very heavy rain. Nejc was in contact first thing in the morning to check if we still wanted to cycle which we did. We finished early and we and the bikes were collected earlier than scheduled to avoid having to hang around in wet gear.The scenery we cycled through from Ljubljana to Lake Bled was beautiful and the people we met were friendly and welcoming. We hope to return soon.

We couldn’t have had a better experience. Everything was great from the moment we were picked up at the airport until our send off two weeks later. Beautiful biking trails, great equipment and accommodations, knowledgable guide offering multiple options every day. I highly recommend Slovenian Cycling Holidays for a great vacation.

Great trip! Klemen set up our trip perfectly. When we needed him he was there. The hotels were excellent. The biking a blast. We did a 5 day self guided tour. Do it!!

I loved my bike, I loved Slovenia and our guided tour. While reminded every day that Slovenia is a small country, it truly has a big heart. Our guide, Nejc, ensured our safety, and showed us his “backyard” so that we could understand the food, and the architectural and sustainable nature of Slovenia. In addition, he took us on trails not well-traveled and to people’s businesses that welcomed us. I felt I got to know Slovenia. Nejc was an outstanding guide.Our group of four asked for e-biking and we got it. As older people we were treated to rideable roads, two-track and a few single-track trails. Each ride surprised us with either a cheese or wine tasting, a coffee at a mountain hut or a village of importance. This was a great tour and I recommend working with Slovenia Cycling Holidays.

Very good communication with this group. And Slovenia is beautiful, food and wine is fantastic and the people are friendly. Highly recommended!

We had a wonderful cycling trip, starting in Trieste, then onto Slovenia and Croatia. Before the trip, Klemen was extremely patient with our many questions and addressed our concerns very satisfactorily- even changing the original bike route to meet our needs. The bikes we used ( e-bikes) were in great condition, and easy to use. The hotels were very satisfactory- and included big breakfasts to start our days. The towns we visited were charming. All in all- a first class experience!!

This company was BRILLIANT!! They planned our whole trip completely bespoke to what we needed. They took time, care and attention to make sure the trip was designed specifically for our needs and interests. The communication was excellent from day one and we felt completely supported and safe in their hands. The locations we cycled to and through were unbelievably beautiful and completely dependent on intricate local knowledge of the country. We had the BEST holiday and we couldn’t recommend them highly enough!

G’day Klem,Back in Australia and just wanted to say how much we enjoyed our holiday. You guys did a wonderful job. The whole experience was first class. The bikes were excellent. The route was fun and well mapped using the app. The hotels were excellent. The hotel staff, outstanding. The food and wine truly memorable.I cannot recommend you guy’s highly enough.Our impressions of Slovenia as an outstanding destination, of beautiful scenery and friendly people will be passed onto all our friends.Thank you so much for a great holiday!

The quick summary: We had an amazing tour with this company and I highly recommend them. Details as follows: I worked with Klemen to set up a 16-day self-guided tour through Slovenia and Istria. I met with Klemen via video chat and explained what we had in mind in terms of ride terrain, miles per day, hotel types, etc…Klemen very quickly understood what I wanted and made great recommendations, notably to steer us towards renting gravel bikes which turned out to be the perfect call for this tour. We’d never done a multi-day tour, let alone self guided, so as the time came close for the trip, I was a little nervous about how things would go. Everything went very smoothly, and that is saying a lot considering what bad luck we had with the weather during our first week. The bikes we were rented were high quality and never let us down. The routes Klemen gave us on RideWithGPS were really nice and took us through a lot of villages and obscure roads we would have never found on our own. Klemen picked out hotels for us and then I reviewed with him and asked for a few changes (paying more to upgrade in some places) and I was happy with everything we ended up with. Of particular note was the support we got when we were struggling. My daughter came down with a cold and (as previously mentioned) the weather turned nasty. I asked Klemen if he could help us move our daughter and her bike when they were moving our luggage, and he got that sorted out for two different stages of the trip. Overall, I’m just so pleased with how things went. It was sad when we had to turn the bikes in and had no more adventures planned for us. I hope to come back and ride again in Slovenia. The scenery and people live up to the reputations. I am writing this kind of long review because before I booked with these guys I could not find very much info about them and I would like them to get credit for great work.
