Nejc with Hour Away was professional and easy to communicate with, treating us as if we were friends borrowing bikes. We rented gravel bikes that were equipped with everything we needed for an epic week-long tour through Slovenia and Italy! 


The bikes were very well maintained, and we didn’t run into any mechanical issues over 560 kilometers of riding. Thanks, Nejc and team, for being part of making an epic bike-packing trip happen! 10 out of 10 would recommend if you’re thinking of renting bikes in the Ljubljana area!

Katie Johnson

We had the trip of a lifetime thanks to Nejc.


He took us through a lot of Slovenia on bikes or hiking mountains. Slovenia is beautiful and we had a very personal experience. We were treated like family everywhere we went. Our accommodations couldn’t have been any better. Nejc was the best tour guide. He had everything planned out perfectly and then when weather didn’t permit what was planned he came up with another wonderful plan. Our trip was full of wonderful people, places and surprises! Thank you Nejc!

Five stars aren't even enough to give Houraway. If you are looking for a local and an absolute expert of all of Slovenia, with the kindest and most thoughtful personality, who just wants to make the perfect adventure specifically for you, then look no further and book Houraway, right away. 


I'd biked through Slovenia before and wanted a more unique experience, to see the hidden gems of this beautiful country, and that is the tour Nejc designed. No Google searches would have provided this epic adventure. And the bike was top notch- better than what I ride at home. Thank you Houraway for unforgettable lifetime memories. Looking forward to coming back!


Epic Climbs: The Ultimate Road Cycling Adventure Through Slovenia, Austria, and Italy

Laura Sender

My wife and I just finished a two-week trip with HourAway in Sept. 2024. I found this company just doing internet exploration and it looked good so took the chance. Wow was I glad that we did! Not only is Slovenia AMAZING (safe, super clean, friendly, uncrowded, and beautiful), but the two guides we had were perhaps the best we have ever had! They helped us plan a greatest hits tour of the country with a focus on outdoor adventure (our choice). 


We used their very well maintained mountain bikes on some days and hiked on others. Side activities like small local farm visits, cheese and wine tastings, were added to make it a more cultural experience. HourAway was completely flexible to make changes on the fly to our itinerary and everything in the country is so convenient with all drives shorter than two hours. If you want to get a wonderful taste of Slovenia with the friendliest professional guides, I wholeheartedly recommend HourAway!


A Slovenian Journey from Alps to Adriatic

Dave Dawkins

WOW! HourAway far surpassed my expectations in every possible way! Nejc and Uroš catered our 14 day chick trip to turn our adventures into spectacular memories! As an avid mountain biker from Colorado, I was at first skeptical about Ebiking and after day one, I wouldn’t have wanted it any other way! 


Amazing biking, hiking, swimming and even rafting in picturesque scenery through the many diverse Slovenian regions, quaint accommodations, cultural culinary delights, schnapps, and much laughter with old and new friends truly filled my heart! This small, guided tour allowed for a personal and welcoming experience everywhere we went! 🇸🇮

Lisa Pike

I recommend HourAway for your Slovenian biking or hiking holiday. And I recommend Slovenia for biking and hiking. Such a beautiful country. With friendly and helpful people everywhere. 


Nejc Peternelj guided us for 14 days to amazing places of beauty, history and culture that we never would have discovered without him. His planning for our comfortable accommodations and excellent meals was incredible. And the trails had just the right balance of challenge and incredible scenery that made our group of four sad to end the holiday. 


Can’t wait to do it again.

HourAway provided attentive, responsive itineraries and accommodations for our group of six.  


We were biking, hiking, rafting, dining, drinking, and laughing the entire trip.  With our guide’s inside connections  we were able to talk  to many creative and passionate Slovenians. We ate wonderful meals , slept well. Our daily adventures led us to stunning locations! 


We will be encouraging our family to join Nejc and HourAway as soon as they can!


Custom tour

Patricia Stolp

First visit to Slovenia and it is a truly beautiful country. Very diverse in a small area, so you can move from mountains to rolling wine-growing hills and then a beach is just a few hours.

Nejc is a brilliant host and guide, gently encouraging our group to try things they had not done before.  He has developed a great range of activities and made the trip very personal to all of us.

We strongly recommend HourAway and will be keen to travel with Nejc again!


A Slovenian Journey from Alps to Adriatic

James Shepherd

Our group of 3 had a great experience working with Nejc at Hour Away to plan a fantastic 12-day bike tour in Slovenia. 2 of us rented bikes and touring gear (1 e-bike and 1 mountain bike) - both bikes were well maintained and we had no issues with them during our tour. 


We wanted more flexibility than a typical guided or self-guided tour, and Nejc suggested an ideal route for us through gorgeous areas, checked in with us periodically during our tour, offering advice about potential road closures due to weather and other helpful suggestions. He was responsive and thoughtful throughout all our communications. I wouldn't hesitate to book another trip with Nejc and HourAway. Hope to get back someday!

Sara Nelson

We wanted to acknowledge Hour Away and our host, Nejc, for a fantastic bike tour in Slovenia. We spent 5 days in mid September/24 touring with Nejc on mountain e-bikes. We appreciated the philosophy, flexibility and details Nejc provided from the beginning to the end of the trip, especially how he sources local and sustainable aspects of travel. These included excellent e-bikes, top notch transportation, reliability, fantastic accommodation and intelligent and thought provoking conversation. 


Through Nejc, we learned so much about so many facets of Slovenia; geography, geology, agriculture, education, culture and history. Amazing all that can happen while you mountain bike your way through the stunning country of Slovenia!


Slovenian Alps E-Bike Trip

Christine Hartmetz

The 2 days I spent riding with HourAway in early May remain a highlight of this year. To be a great bike guide you need to love both cycling and your country. 


With Nejc I felt as if I was visiting an old friend so he can show me his favorite riding spots. The places we visited were spectacular, the routes - carefully planned for my skill level so they would be just a tiny bit challenging without ever feeling overwhelming. I can’t think of a single thing in this trip which has not been perfect and I am looking forward to picking up where we left the next time I visit Ljubljana.
