So we planned a stop in Trieste on our way from Venice to Split, Croatia. We knew a little. The city was the home of Chef Lydia Bastianich and many national flags flew there over the centuries. It turned to be a wonderful surprise. We found beautiful architecture, wide streets, reasonable prices, friendly people and even more complex history than we had imagined. Helping us sort through the centuries of politics, wars, occupations and developmnets was our guide Demian Sem. He was wonderful. Demien is a Slovenian (next door to Trieste) and explained how Slovenia, Venice, Italy, the Hapsburgs, Ottomans, Romans, Italian Fascists, NAZI's, WWII and others figured in the city's history. Demien punctuated his narrative with personal anecdotes and the local color you can only see with a native. He explained the more interesting architecture, buildings, their significance and their role in the city's history, economy and culture. He also has a great sense of humor and managed to entertain us on a personal level as well. We like to use local guides, especially on 1st visits. Damien not only met our expectations, he exceeded them on every criteria. If you book a local tour ask for Demian Sem. You will benefit from his extensive knowledge and interestig delivery.

We completed the Julian Alps traverse in September 2020. The support we received from Life Adventures was excellent prior to and during our hike. The communication with us was always good which was particularly important due to changes forced upon us by COVID-19 issues. We loved the hike itself and tremendously enjoyed the challenges we faced in what is a different but serious hiking environment. There are great views to every day. This hike is for experienced hikers with a good level of fitness, who enjoy remaining in the mountains every day and the pleasure taken in the such views.

The transport was arranged straight from Nadiža camp in Podbela. We didn't have to go anywhere with car. Equipment is new, clean and high quality. That was important for our family - nobody likes thorn and worn-out stuff, right? Memo - our guide was very professional and also entertaining - so it was no trouble or fear for the kids. Great fun for the whole family!

The day trip to the capital Ljubljana was awesome. Walking around the town center made me want to stay there for at least a few more days. The weather wasn’t that brilliant, but we saw all the main sites. The architecture, climate and landscape are so different from where I was staying on the coast. It's like visiting another country.

Are you ready for a challenge?  Join us on the Soča down-river trip! Going down the river on a paddleboard is super fun. At first, it's quite a challenge to stand when going through the rapids but don't let that scare you off.  If you find it too hard to do, you can always sit down and enjoy the stability of the paddleboard (very stable compared to kayak)

Inclusions: Fruit and potato chips for our break at the beach., Air-conditioned vehicle, RED paddle boards that are are known for their stiffness and stability....

Exclusions: Lunch, Alcoholic Beverages
