What you can expect

  • The experience starts at the meeting point at the company's base with a warm welcome and a brief moment to receive all the instructions from our guides, who are cheerful, experienced and passionate about adventure. The activity lasts approximately 3 hours, perfect for those looking for a complete adventure, and ends at the meeting point, the same as at the start. Next, we kit out all participants with a life jacket, helmet and paddles, ensuring complete safety for the tour. On colder days, we provide wetsuits and windbreakers, ensuring comfort and protection.

    During the descent, you'll be surrounded by stunning scenery: mountains, vegetation, majestic rocks and the crystal-clear waters of the river create a unique setting.

    Along the way, we'll tackle thrilling rapids, but there will also be calm stretches, perfect for relaxing, swimming and enjoying the surrounding nature. For the more adventurous, a special stop will allow you to jump off a rock into the void — an unforgettable experience for those looking for a little more adrenaline!

    Following the guide's instructions carefully and promptly is essential to navigate the rapids safely and make the most of the experience. Clear communication between the guide and the participants is key to a fun and safe adventure.

    Our rafting activity is inclusive and can be enjoyed by people of different ages and skill levels. Children aged 6 and over can participate, always accompanied by an adult, ensuring that everyone enjoys the experience safely. In addition, people up to 85 years old can also take part, provided they are in good physical condition and follow the guides' instructions during the 8- to 12-km route.

    Photos and videos are included in the package, so you can relive this unique experience whenever you like.

    Participants are advised to bring clothing suitable for getting wet, closed-toe shoes, sunscreen, a bath towel, and a change of dry clothes for afterward. With all the necessary facilities, experienced guides and incredible natural scenery, this activity combines adrenaline, fun and teamwork, making it ideal for boosting spirits, creating incredible memories and experiencing unique moments.

    At the end, we celebrate together with an Alvarinho toast and a delicious regional snack, perfect for recharging your batteries. To end on a high note, we'll take a short hike to loosen up our muscles and enjoy the natural surroundings even more. It's an activity full of adrenaline, fun and teamwork, ideal for boosting your spirits and creating incredible memories.

    In addition, transportation is included: we take you from the starting point to the launch site on the river, and at the end, we return to the departure point.

    The rafting activity starts at the company's base, where you will be welcomed and briefed by our experienced guides, and ends at the same point.
