Cycle Ljubljana with guide Klemen on a 3.5-hour bike tour from Prešernov trg to Metelkova, Tivoli Park, and the Ljubljanica river.
“A great way to see the city with the ability to fit more sights in than walking. Klemen my guide was funny, engaging and really knowledgeable. I’d definitely recommend this tour, really enjoyable.”
Rent a Scott e-bike in Bled, get route help from Wendy and team, ride Lake Bled and Vintgar Gorge with easy electric assist.
“The lady at the desk was very friendly and helpful to guide you how to bike. The bikes were in exellent condition. The lake of Bled and the Vintgar-gap were very beautiful. With bikes it was better to do in one day than if you should walk, especially on a hot day as we had.”

Small-group eBike ride past Lake Bled villages and views, guided by Primo and Wendy. Helmet, water, and tickets included. 3 hours.
“I can’t recommend Primo highly enough! From start to finish, he went out of his way to make sure we had the best possible experience. Even though there were only two of us signed up, he didn’t cancel the tour—instead, he gave us a truly personalized and memorable ride through Slovenia. But what really stood out was Primo’s exceptional customer service. I lost my phone somewhere along the bike route, and without hesitation, Primo rode back miles to find it—despite having other important things to attend to. That kind of care and commitment is rare, and I’m incredibly grateful. If you want to experience Slovenia through the eyes of someone…”
Glide through Ljubljana on a small-group e-bike highlight tour, ending with sunset views from Ljubljana Castle. English guide, 3 hours.

“Ursa was a wonderful guide. She insured we kept up with a ride, made certain we were comfortable and took joy and pointing out all of the mountain peaks that were crystal clear visible on a beautiful day. We stopped about halfway through our trip and a lovely village cafe and had a charcuterie board for lunch. Stopped off and saw where they made charcoal the old-fashioned way and then sped down the mountain. All during the trip she took short videos for us to remember our time. We finished the ride at her home where she and her partner made us Turkish coffee, told us about the holidays going…”
E-bike through Piran and Portoroz, past Sečovlje Salt Pans, ending with wine and food tasting in a garden near Šentjane.

Private 3-hour Bohinj Valley bike ride with a local guide, included bike and helmet, and a route tuned to your interests.
“Grega at Hike & Bike helped me organise a self guided bike trip in Slovenia and organised accommodation and transfers for us between locations, as well as bike hire for some people in our group of 12. We all had an incredible experience and loved the cycle routes that he chose for us. The accommodation was perfect, and Grega's service was the best. I would definitely recommend his company to anyone else visiting the area”
Rent a KTM mountain bike in Bled for $29, with helmet and lock included. Explore Lake Bled independently for 10 hours.

E-bike through Slovenia's Vipava Valley river route with coffee, Štruklji, and gelato, guided stops, optional pickup, private group.
“My wife and I enjoyed a fantastic eBike tour of the Vipava Valley with Alex as our guide. Alex was great at keeping in touch, tailored the route to suit our requirements, and helped my wife overcome her initial lack of confidence (by the end she was powering off into the distance!). We found Alex to be thoroughly engaging, with a great sense of humour. He is a fount of knowledge about the area and Slovenian culture. Despite being a very experienced cyclist he was very happy to go at a pace suitable for beginners like us. We were lucky enough to enjoy perfect weather, made frequent stops to discuss…”
Rent a top e-bike in Vipava Valley, follow Komoot routes, and cruise quiet roads, gravel, vineyards, and Štanjel with easy help.
“This was the most charming bike rental spot. Alex was particularly warm, welcoming and helpful. You got the impression that nothing was too much to ask and he had an excellent manner with the children. He made sure we had everything we needed before we left and gave great advice using the Komoot app. The kids absolutely loved the ease of the ride on a hot day and our son said, “the only problem was that you leave wondering how you can convince your parents to buy you an e-bike!” We would highly recommend RockVelo. Thank you Alex”

Private 5-hour e-bike tour through Slovenia’s Soča Valley, hitting Virje and Boka waterfalls, Šunik grove, gorge views, and a local picnic.
“We absolutely loved the bike ride! The E-bikes are in good condition, they cycle comfortable and the batteries have strong power. Marko, the guide, was very friendly and helpful. And the route was scenic and lovely. We saw many places where a car doesn't come yet. We really suggest this tour for others!”
Bike the Parenzana Trail from Koper to Izola, ride through tunnels, visit salt pans, then toast with local wine and snacks.
“This was probably the best excursion we did off our med cruise ship! The trails are awesome with super views and the tunnels are cool...literally....to ride thru and our guide took us on a walking trip thru Piran and to a great place for wine tasting and a snack.. Our guide turned out to be the company owner sorry I forgot how to spell....Dajean and he was GREAT. There were some hills, but luckily our wives 1 59 and 1 64 had the 2 electric assist bikes and had no problems. I highly recommend this trip :”
