About the guide
Aktivni
Tour Operator
In the summer of 1999, at the World Rafting Championship in South Africa, the legendary Bober Beaver rafting team –called Bobri- won the sixth golden medal in a row. Two years later, in Bovec, a small town located near the emerald color Soča River, two members of the Bobri team established a sport agency: Aktivni Planet.
The guides at Aktivni Planet have a lot of experience, due to regular participation at international competitions in slalom kayaking and kayak descent, rafting, and other similar competitions and river explorations around the world, while also teaching those who are willing to learn.
After years of hard work they still do what they love and are fully committed to their work. Moreover, when they are not cruising the rivers they are climbing the Alps, cycling down the local hills or exploring the local cave system, among other exciting activities.
There is no doubt that our guides are unique. Some of them are locals who grew up in the Soča Valley, some are from other parts of Slovenia and even from other parts of the world, but they all gathered in the small town of Bovec.
The varied activities, knowledge, expertise and most importantly the kind and friendly environment improves the overall experience we offer. Our team will guide on amazing rafting, kayaking school, canyoning and zipline programs! Contact us!

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
