Sunset kayaking lake blef - We did the sunset kayaking trip and were part of the first trip of the season.
What an absolute amazing experience, Primio and his partner are so friendly and helpful.
The trip was fantastic. Great to see the lake at night time and see how calm the water was.
The castle looked amazing and we even saw some fish.
If you have never kayaker , don't worry, you will love it

A peaceful experience on Lake Bled - This trip was very different to anything I had been on before. I had never even been in a kayak. It felt very safe and stable and the guide was excellent at explaining everything. Although we didn’t get to see any fish it was 100% worthwhile to be on the beautiful lake with nobody else around.

Fun!!! - Run, dont walk to kayak with Primo! Beautiful evening complete with a full moon over the lake! Peaceful time and a lot of fun. That water is magical at night with the color plus the ringing of the bells on the island made it even more spectacular! Thank you—we had such a unique night!

Fun and different - Very pretty and liked seeing all the fish. Got good views of the island and castle all lit up at night and got told some history about certain parts which were interesting. Also we were the only ones on the lake which gets super busy in the day with swimmers and boats so was really good we could explore and take photos with no one else in it

Sailing a boat in the dark - Nice smooth guide. He occasionally gave interesting facts about Lake Bled and about the history of Slovenia. Something different from a regular kayak.

Lovely leisurely & calming evening activity - Lovely evening activity! Easygoing evening kayak around Lake Bled. Super cool with the clear kayaks and being able to look down and see all the fishes, and the blue lights on the kayaks helped to illuminate everything. According to Strava we covered a distance of 3km in 1.5 hours. I will be recommending this tour to anybody visiting Lake Bled :)

Magical evening kayak tour - Absolutely fantastic experience! The kayaks are stable and very clear, so you can see everything underneath. Being on Lake Bled as the sun goes down is magical, as was the time to explore the island. The trip lead was knowledgeable and super friendly - 10/10, can't wait to do it again!
