Slovenia Bike Tours is a local cycling company based in Kranj, at the gateway to the Julian Alps. We create self-guided and private cycling holidays for guests who want to experience Slovenia at the right pace, with routes, accommodation and logistics designed as one coherent journey.
First and foremost, we are cyclists. The company grew from years spent riding Slovenia’s roads, climbs, valleys and gravel tracks, combined with more than a decade of work in tourism. That local experience helps us understand which routes look attractive on a map and which ones actually create a memorable day on the bike.
Meet Nejc, Your Local Cycling Expert
Nejc is the founder of Slovenia Bike Tours and the person behind the routes, logistics and day-to-day support. His background in cycling reaches back to racing days, but the tours are not created only for fast riders. The same knowledge is used to find quiet alternatives, realistic stage lengths, worthwhile stops and routes that work for recreational cyclists, e-bike users and mixed groups.
When you contact us, you are not entering a large booking system. You speak with a local specialist who knows the itinerary and can explain the trade-offs between a longer Alpine stage, a gentler valley route, an extra night in wine country or a more relaxed finish by the sea.
Cycling Holidays Shaped Around You
No two groups arrive with exactly the same experience, interests or expectations. Before recommending a tour, we look at the distances you usually ride, the climbing you enjoy, your preferred bike, the time available and the places you most want to see. We then adapt the daily stages, accommodation and transfers where necessary.
Our self-guided cycling tours in Slovenia include prepared GPS routes, handpicked accommodation, luggage transfers where specified and local support throughout the journey. You ride independently without having to build the trip from separate bookings.
For couples, families, clubs and groups of friends who prefer company on the road, our private guided cycling tours add a local guide who can adjust the day, share context and help the group make the most of each region.
Local Knowledge Beyond the Famous Sights
Lake Bled, Vršič Pass and the Soča Valley deserve their reputation, but Slovenia’s best cycling often happens between the landmarks. Quiet roads through Gorenjska, vineyard lanes in Goriška Brda, forest routes on high plateaus and small towns away from the busiest visitor flows give each journey its character.
We also consider what happens after the ride. Comfortable accommodation, reliable luggage movements, suitable dinner options and time to explore matter just as much as a good GPS track. The aim is a cycling holiday that feels well organised without feeling rigid.
A Licensed Slovenian Travel Company
Slovenia Bike Tours operates through Grilc Tours d.o.o. The company holds a travel-agency licence with the Slovenian Chamber of Tourism and maintains insurance for its tour operations. Clear proposals explain what is included, which services are optional and how the itinerary can be adapted before booking.
