Tour programme
- Preparation:
Once you'll have finalised your booking, we'll contact you to fix an individual meeting point (at your hotel or a train station for example). We'll then come pick you up with our van at the agreed time. It will take us approximately 1h to get from Porto to the tour's starting point. This leaves us enough time to tell you everything there is to know about the region and to get to know each other on the way. Once we'll have arrived at Espuinca, our logistics centre in close proximity to the river, you'll be able to suit up and get your equipment. After a short briefing, your guide will take you to the starting point and the adventure can begin!

- Tour:
The programme of the tour along with its difficulty can vary. Depending on the water level and the group's level of experience, your guide can choose a specific route that'll fit your group best. In general, the tour is of intermediate difficulty since the rapids are quite strong here. You'll hence be able to enjoy your 3 to 4-hour long rafting activity at full-speed - adrenaline rushes included!

- Arrival:
After the tour, you'll be brought back to Espiunca, the initial starting point, where you can shower and have a nice little picnic. You'll then be brought back to your initial meeting point.
