A wonderful day
Comment origin: TripAdvisorWe had hoped to book white-water rafting but as the water level wasn't quite right we opted for a day of kayaking on the river Zrmanja.
The guides were lovely and knowledgeable and managed the group really well. The instruction was very good. The scenery was heavenly and there was a good mix of leisurely paddling and more challenging rapids and drops. Suitable for all ages.
We stopped by a lovely waterfall for a picnic (although we hadn't been able to get to a shop so we didn't have anything - but we didn't mind).
The kayaking ended up at a bar where we waited while our nominated driver was taken back to the start point to pick up our car. The locals were so lovely we ended up staying and chatting to them for quite a while.
A fantastic day out on the river.
