Review of Braga canyoning with rappels, slides, jumps, gear, guides, photos, price, safety, meeting point, and booking tips.

“The canyon trip was truly one of the highlights of our 2 weeks in Portugal. Our guides Bruno Martins and Pinto were excellent. Never during our time in the canyon did we feel uncomfortable and unsafe. The equipment was top notch, adding to the safety of our venture. Thank-you Bruno and Pinto for sharing your office with us. It was memorable. Jill Johnson”

“The park was wonderful great views and so glad to see the Portuguese are doing so much to protect it. Noah was a great guide. I just did not realise that hiking involved very steep climbs up and down slippery granite rocks. I am fit but in my sixties so it was hard but Noah was very patient. There should have been a warning about how physical it was.”

Ponte de Lima Guided Buggy Tour

7.Ponte de Lima Guided Buggy Tour

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 68 reviews · 2 hours (approx.)

Drive a two-hour buggy through mountain tracks near Ponte de Lima, with wild horses, big views, and a guide-led route for two.

“This was a fun way to get off the beaten track. It takes you up into the hills and dirt tracks in the mountains south of Ponte de Lima. We saw wild horses and beautiful views! The tour guide was great and spoke English well. The meeting location was easy to find in Google maps. It can be very dusty, so recommend going in the morning when it’s cooler and on a weekday when they have fewer guests/ buggies. Definitely but the buff do an extra 2 euros, and wear the goggles. Don’t plan to do anything right after this tour as you need to get back to your hotel…”
