Review of the Paiva River canoe-rafting tour from Arouca, with rapids, swimming, cliff jumps, local food, practical tips, and honest value advice.

“We had an amazing time Rafting/ Tubing. The scenery was beautiful and the overall experience was great. Our guide Pedro from JUST COME was super fun and we felt extremely safe with him. Also as an extra bonus he took a lot of fun pictures of the trip! Totally recommend this activity! We will be back for sure - maybe when there is more water in the river. But evens the water levels were lower - it was still a great adventure for us. So yes absolutely 5 stars. We also booked the lunch - it was a fantastic way to extend the nice trip. Cute restaurant and good food.…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.2 · 5 reviews · 8 hours · from $100

Canoe raft the Paiva River from Porto with guides, transport, swims, Arouca Geopark scenery, and a three-hour river descent.

“We were collected at the meeting point at the scheduled time by a „Taxi“. We were only two people that went and booked the trip via GetYourGuide. The driver was really nice, giving us a good ride to the Meeting Point for the Rafting in a climatized car. We had to drive about 1,5 hours. At the meeting point there were other groups of people that booked the experience. After we got our safety equipment, we had to do another ride (about 20 mins) further up the mountain, from where we started the rafting. On our way we had several opportunities to swim in the river. Only thing was that…”
