Triple Bridge (Tromostovje)
The central of the three bridges forming the Triple Bridge has stood in its place since 1842, when it replaced an old, strategically important medieval wooden bridge connecting the north-western European lands with south-eastern Europe and the Balkans. Between 1929 and 1932, the side bridges, intended for pedestrians, were added to the original stone bridge to a design by the architect Jože Plečnik, who thus created a unique architectural gem of Ljubljana.

Dragon Bridge (Zmajski Most)
DRAGON BRIDGE IS THE MOST fairytale of fairytale bridges in the delightfully fairytale city of Ljubljana, Slovenia. Combining old-world charm with medieval mystique, this bridge isn’t afraid to celebrate its Gothic construction nor the mythical side of the area’s history. Festooned with ornamental dragon statues among the already ornate embellishments, this delightful monument is a favorite with visitors who love to see through it the playful (or frightening?) side of the city.

Urban SUP tour

Relaxing way to see the city
We did the sunset tour. A good activity to do at the end of a hot day sightseeing! Great to see the city from a different view and it was lovely and peaceful along the river. There were a lot of boats going past and it was quite wavy when that happened which was fun! Our guide was professional and friendly and allowed everyone to go at their own pace. She also took photos for us. We finished the tour feeling lovely and relaxed. Definitely recommend for a chilled couple of hours. Also the bananas were a nice touch!

We had such an amazing experience as first time paddlers - Anja our instructor made us feel super comfortable and not nervous at all! It was a super fun way to view the city! We got given great photos and Anja was so very friendly and kind (went out of her way to give us recommendations for the rest of our Slovenia trip!) Would definitely recommend!

Why this scores 86
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Ljubljana Stand-Up Paddle Boarding Lesson and Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ljubljana.
How much does Ljubljana Stand-Up Paddle Boarding Lesson and Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $73 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Ljubljana usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Ljubljana Stand-Up Paddle Boarding Lesson and Tour take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Ljubljana is not rushed.
Is Ljubljana Stand-Up Paddle Boarding Lesson and Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 86 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 317 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Ljubljana, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Ljubljana Stand-Up Paddle Boarding Lesson and Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Ljubljana Stand-Up Paddle Boarding Lesson and Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Ljubljana Stand-Up Paddle Boarding Lesson and Tour?
+
Around 111 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Ljubljana can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Ljubljana and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Ljubljana Stand-Up Paddle Boarding Lesson and Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Ljubljana within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Ljubljana?
+
On Outty we rank every Ljubljana experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Slovenia in One Day: Small-Group Bled, Postojna Cave & Predjama, Postojna Cave and Predjama Castle - Entrance Tickets Included, Ljubljana Small Group Food Walking Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Ljubljana?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Ljubljana?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Ljubljana Stand-Up Paddle Boarding Lesson and Tour?
+

SUP board, paddle safety leash); Wetsuit in spring and autumn when requested; Introductory paddle boarding course; 2 hour long paddle boarding experience with SUP&FUN games/relaxing time!; and Photo memories. Not included: Drink at Spica cafe; and Hotel pickup and drop-off. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Ljubljana Stand-Up Paddle Boarding Lesson and Tour?
+
When you arrive, just look for Red Paddle Co SUP boards and a Bananaway instructor wearing a yellow Bananaway T-shirt. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Ljubljana Stand-Up Paddle Boarding Lesson and Tour offered in?
