Family Types
Family with Small Children & Babies
As this might be your first holiday with a small child, we want to make it as hassle-free as possible. As babies tend to get tired fast, the activities will be short, and we will consider nap time when designing your itinerary. You will tell us what you feel comfortable doing, and we will stick to lighter activities. You will also have an option of a car seat and baby carriage per request.
Family with Kids Aged 6-12
We all know how much energy kids between ages 6 and 12 have, and we will ensure they take advantage of it. We prepared an abundance of outdoor activities you can choose from, including visits to adventure parks, water parks, and tourist farms where they can feed farm animals or try horseback riding.
Family with Teenagers
Teenagers are a tricky age group, but we have prepared an abundant selection of activities for them. Each of them will find something to look forward to doing in Slovenia. Take them hiking, canyoning, cycling, or rafting, and let them explore their adventurous spirits!
Big Family or More Families
We adapt our tours to the number of your family members, allowing you to fully enjoy your holidays without any troubles concerning the organization. Even if you are a big family or multiple families traveling together, we will accommodate your group accordingly. We can arrange bus transfers, entire houses or villas for accommodation, and group activities.
Things to know
We calculate the price for the whole family and not per person. Our final package price already includes all the discounted activities and entrance fees for kids that you would otherwise encounter on your family holidays.
We have no limit on the age of your kids, but we make sure to cater to your needs, given how old your child is.
Our family tours are entirely flexible and don’t target one specific age group. We adapt to any family type, designing the family holidays in a way to be entertaining for you and your kids.
They will pay the adult price and won’t receive entry discounts, but we will still adapt your itinerary to make it fun for the whole family.
As much as you want! We pride ourselves on our holidays being completely customizable so that you don’t have to do anything you don’t want to. We always consult you on what kind of activities you want to do. These holidays are about you, after all!
We include anything you want, from the accommodation to the transfers and entrance fees, and calculate our final price based on that. Things can also always be added at the last minute if you want. One thing that will cost you extra is cancellation insurance, though.
We keep our options open to offer you the best possible solution. We are in constant contact with multiple local accommodation providers to see if they are available. Some hotels can be limited to family rooms, meaning the kids would have to sleep on fold-out beds. Therefore, we also provide an option of private apartments (we can also organize a breakfast delivery in some areas).
Excluding breakfast, we don’t generally include meals in our holiday packages. We make sure to include lunch breaks and some suggestions on where you can get the best taste of the local cuisine. The restaurants usually offer meals for kids.
If you have any allergies or dietary requirements, you can let us know in advance.
Of course! You decide how you want to spend your holidays. We can even arrange activities just for kids so that parents can take a break.
Your daily itinerary will run at a family-friendly pace that will be adapted to your family type and keep traveling time between locations down to a minimum.
Yes! We even offer an optional nanny or an animator for your kids so that you can go for a quiet romantic dinner or a wine tasting, for example.
