Underground kayaking, short hike and oldschool rollercosater :) = great day
Well organized, diverse experiences (miners train+hike+kayak+authentic meal) all worth seeing and tasting. Kind and informative welcome at the entrance, great guide inside, sufficiently equipped and safe. Small remark: it was easy for us but some older people or overweight people might have problems with descending and climbing the stairs to kayaks - some warning/notice in advance when booking the tickets would be recommended.

Wonderful!
We joined the underground biking tour as a fun activity for our weekend in Slovenia. It was wonderful! Our guide, Hannah, was amazing and we learnt a lot about the mine and the life of miners. The whole experience was surreal, with the dark around, the lamp helmets and the silence! We definitely recommend it. I suggest you bring gloves, because your hands can get cold.
