Window into the fairytale scenes provided by this part of Croatia. - First of all, the landscape is beautiful and for those who are up for a rest with a light drive through the beautiful Gacka valley along the river, which is adorned with the epithet of one of the cleanest in the world, I definitely recommend a visit. In addition to kayaking on the river, Velebit offers a handful of other activities that we will surely return to experience. Exceptional quality service, professionalism, precision in communication and agreement, and the kindness of the staff and the host, I will certainly point out as virtues for which we will visit Prozor again.

Perfect little break in rural inlands - We decided to rent a kayak on our way from Pag Island to the Plitvica Lakes. Service is excellent, both through messenger and in person. Very kind and helpful staff, that spoke perfect English (and German). Kayak was in good condition and a little pillow is provided to prevent a sore back. You will be dropped off and picked up by car at the start and finish The river trail is easy and gives you a great view of the rural inland of Croatia. Lots of green, sheep, cows, waterbirds, birds of prey and fish to spot on the way. Very friendly locals as well. It took us about 1.5hrs to complete the tour. We didn't take a break, but there are plenty of spots to rest along the way. Great value for money.

Great mini adventure - The owner Denis is an absolute legend. He and his staff were super friendly and helpful. We were in the area to mainly visit the lakes but were recommended to head to Denis for a see through kayak experience. Worth it!!! The river is super clear. If you have the time go and see the source. Thank you Denis and crew.

The best way to experience this valley rich in nature - What a joy this experience was. An abundance of fish (trout) and birds, including a rare heron. The water was so clear, the transparent kayaks were great to view below. Easy paddling and being dropped off up river and collected down river made it a fun, rather than challenging, activity. Denis and his staff were great and we enjoyed the coffee afterwards - thank you.

Pleasant family activity - Wanted to try something different, stumbled on this through the internet. From the booking everything went great! Efficient, prepared and smiling staff! Welcoming when you arrive. Denis is doing a great job in offering through his team a very nice experience. If you like nature and silence then try it and it is interesting to see the landscape from a different perspective!
