My partner and I had an absolutely fantastic time on the Barka Lea boat tour in Ljubljana! It was an exceptional experience from start to finish.
The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating, making us feel welcomed and comfortable throughout the journey. The audio guide was informative, and we learned so much about the city's history and landmarks.
The views along the Ljubljanica River were breathtaking, and we loved the convenience of having a clean restroom on board. It's the little things that make a difference! :)
We highly recommend this boat tour to anyone visiting Ljubljana - not just couples but also families. It's a perfect way to explore the city and enjoy a romantic moment on the water. We'd do it again in a heartbeat!

Finally life is getting back to normal (after covid) and we took a boat tour in Ljubljana. It was a very nice afternoon ride. It was such a hot day and going on a boat was excellent choice. A little wind from the ride, comfortable chairs, cold drinks, listening to nice music and some historical facts about the river and city itself was a nice touch. Captain was friendly and made sure we were comfortable. 😁

We went with this boat tour through the city of Ljubljana. The staff was very friendly on the boat as they were funny and very sweet. They came to everyone to make some small talk. We saw some great buildings. I love animals and we saw a couple of nutrias (mixture between beavers and rats) so that was amazing. This was a great boat tour.

I went on Lea boat with my wife. We had wonderful time on boat. It is kept in very nice condition. Freshly painted and very clean. Skipper Tomaž is very friendly. We liked also avdio explenation in English. I strongly suggest if you are in Ljubljana try to go on Lea boat. It is nice view from river.

Wonderful experience on Barka Lea! The captain was very kind and welcoming, and the boat itself was super comfortable. We saw that other boats had bench type of seating or even regular dining chairs, while Barka Lea had comfortable cushioned lounge chairs. Winning offer for sure! They also have drinks to purchase on the boat, a clean restroom, and audio guides in Slovenian and English. The trip went along the river with wonderful sights at just the right pace. We'd take this trip with Barka Lea anytime we're in Ljubljana, just to relax and enjoy the sights. Thank you, Barka Lea!

Had a lovely 45 minute trip on the boat. Pick up and drop off was from the Dragon bridge so very easy. Comfortable seats and great views and commentary

Completely different to the photos on their website for the romantic package for two. We booked in advance and we’re shocked when we showed up and nothing was how they advertised! Very disappointed.
