BANANAWAY: OUR STORY

Bananaway is more than just a travel agency. It’s an active lifestyle powered by adventure, flow, and a deep love for nature.

Rooted in Slovenia, Bananaway specialize in crafting unique, active adventures that uncover the hidden beauty of our homeland while offering unforgettable experiences abroad.

WHY BANANAWAY

Our story begins with the BANANA, nature’s ultimate energy booster. Whether you’re hiking, stand-up paddleboarding, climbing, kitesurfing, or practicing yoga, the banana fuels your body and keeps you moving. It symbolizes vitality, playfulness, and joy—traits that travel with us on every adventure.

The second part of our name, WAY, represents our way of life: an active, energy-filled lifestyle that brings happiness, fulfillment, and flow. Together, Bananaway reflects who we are and the experiences we create—adventures that leave you feeling energized and inspired.

Our mission: To fill you with all the energy you need to thrive in your daily life.
